Chapter 382 - Leaving hour daughter once again. (1/2)
Lifen looked at the woman who had arrived early in the morning. She was expecting for Aunt Rebecca's niece to arrive but never knew that the one who will be arriving will not be only the niece but also the person about whom she has been thinking for the whole night.
She turned to look upstairs at the man, who has confirmed her doubts. ”You know her?” she asked, feigning all unawareness of the situation.
Deming nodded and climbed down the stairs. ”Of course I know her. She is the client about whom I was talking to you last night.” He said and then smiled at the woman.
”Good morning, Mr. Wang! I didn't expect to see you early in the morning. You are here for …?” Xu Ping Ruo asked as he looked between him and the Lifen, trying her best to guess.
Lifen too caught her speculating eyes. She looked at Deming and asked him to explain. Obliging to her orders, the man smiled and said, ”I am here living with my beautiful wife”
Then looking at Lifen, he wrapped his arms around her and said, ”Bid them farewell. I will go and take my shower”. Smiling, Lifen nodded and then turned back to look at the duo.
There was an expression of surprise on the face of Xue Ping Ruo as if she had heard something she had not expected even at her last breath. ”Ms. Xue, is there anything? I mean you are looking quite surprised”
Rebecca too looked at her and placing her hands over her shoulder she asked, ”Ruoruo, what happened? Are you fine”.
Shaking her head in nothing Xue Ping Ruo said, ”Haha … it's nothing. I was just surprised a bit, finding Mr. Wang so early in the morning. I mean … I mean I never thought he has a wife and family”
”Ah yes, we have yet to publicize our relationship. So I could only request you to not tell this to anyone yet”, saying this Lifen gestured them to take their seats on the sofa.
”Since Ms. Xue is already here this early in the morning. We can have our breakfast together. It will be served soon”, Lifen said as she looked at Rebecca.
The woman nodded, ”Of course, I can't let this last opportunity slide off. This will be my last breakfast here. I will happily go according to your request”. She said and then turned to look at the woman who was sitting beside her, ”It will be okay for you Ruoruo? Let's have one last breakfast here”
Xue Ping Ruo smiled as she looked at her aunt's expectant eyes. ”Do I have any option, Aunt! I will do anything that will make you happy. So let's have our breakfast here”
”Fine, since it's decided then let me go and ask the chefs to prepare something more special today”, Lifen said as she stood up and excused herself to go to the kitchen, leaving the aunt – niece duo alone in the living hall.
”How have you been, Aunty? Have you been alright here?” right when they saw Lifen disappearing in the direction of the kitchen, Xue Ping Ruo turned to ask Rebecca.
Her doe eyes held utmost concern when looked at the woman. ”Rebecca turned to look at her too. ”Hmm I am fine. You don't have to worry about me but to the work I have given to you. Everything depends on you from hereon”
”I know Aunty. You don't have to worry. I was a little scared at first thinking the man I am going to face will be Wang Deming, whop ways are known to be the peak of torture. But after meeting him I don't find him that tough. So rest assured, everything is in control. But …”, Xue Ping Ruo paused, not sure of her own thoughts.
Her eyes trailed upstairs, in the direction where Deming had left a few moments before. Rebecca too followed her gaze but could not understand her meaning. Looking back at her, she asked ”But what? Is there any problem?”
”I never knew that he had already married Li Lifen. I thought they were still dating and marriage was not in their plans yet. Especially after the woman was temporarily paralyzed due to the drug effect”, She said, disappointment visible in both her eyes and voice.
”Xue Ping Ruo, you better not get distracted from the target”, she half yelled, sensing the way toward which her feelings were floating. ”You know what are you here for? Get you head right and focus on the goal. I won't tolerate any type of distraction at this moment”
