"Mi Rong, you might think that my son is spoiled, but to be honest he was very much left alone. Nobody was truly there for him, even me." Lady Ru Yin sighed.
"Only when he grew a little older did his grandparents take him away. Sigh, now he's all cold just like that old man. However, I still know that deep inside of him, he's a good kid. He had come to live with his father when he was much older, but they were never the same."
When she heard Lady Ru Yin speak of her son, it made Mi Rong think of someone. She couldn't help but smile.
Seeing Mi Rong smile made Lady Ru Yin slightly puzzled, "Did I say something wrong?"
"Ahaha, oh no, it's just that, you made me think of someone; someone very alike your son."
"Oh, I used to think my son was the most unique of them all. There's such a person?"
Mi Rong couldn't believe her ears; this aunty was so sure that her son was the most extraordinary, but maybe all mothers think the same way.
Nevertheless, there's never a person that could be an exact copy of you, so everyone's basically unique. However, her face was dead serious, "He he, there is such a person indeed, maybe not the same with your son, but very similar. Always like to keep things to himself."
"Hmm."
"Anyways, look aunty…." Mi Rong leaned closer and whispered, "….whenever the time has come and you have made up your choice to leave, then call me." Mi Rong wrote a number on a piece of tissue that was with her, "Here's my number."
Lady Ru Yin reluctantly accepted the tissue, "Sigh, thank you."
The two had talked some more; although they had just met, they got along like they had known each other for years.
Jun Kai who had been behind the wall had been peeking towards the pair and was wondering when they would finally stop.
Girls surely talk a lot.
"Achuu! Ugh…did someone just talked about me?"
"Aunty, are you alright?"
"Yeah, I think we should both leave. It's getting colder now. My old body cannot really stand it when things get colder." Lady Ru Yin could not help but rub her shoulders.
Seeing the lady's actions, Mi Rong faintly recalled another person, "Haa, just the same as my mother…"
"Huh, did you say something, Mi Rong?"
Mi Rong looked up and reassured, "Oh no, it's nothing. You can leave first, I think I'll just spend some more time alone here."
"Are you sure? I would not want you to catch a cold tomorrow." Lady Ru Yin worryingly asked.
"I'll be fine, don't forget, I'm not that old yet." Mi Rong's eyes had a hint of teasing in them.
Lady Ru Yin couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Oh, what would I know about that. Well, don't stay here for too long. I'll take my leave now."
"Hm, okay aunty. Don't forget our secret, okay?"
As she recalled about what Mi Rong had spoken to her, she sighed, "Well, only in the worse cases."
Mi Rong smiled and reassured, "I'll wait."
Mi Rong did not want to let the husband and wife split from each other, but just to teach a lesson to the aunty's husband that he had completely missed this precious pearl for a bead.
Lady Ru Yin then walked towards the way her husband had exited the hotel. It didn't take long before she reached the exit.
However, outside, there were two bodyguards waiting for her at the door.
They both greeted when they saw her and opened the door for her. When she walked out of the exit, there was a black car waiting.
The car had black windows on all sides, and nobody could see through them. However, she was ever so familiar with this car.
She had been in it for many years.
Inside, would be someone that wouldn't probably want to see her.
Hmph, but you still waited for me, my beloved husband? Although she felt like turning around, her hands still reached out to the car.
Sigh.
…
In the hotel garden
Mi Rong was left star gazing as she sat alone.
Not long, she heard a few rustling coming from the grass. Footsteps were drawing closer to her.
Mi Rong turned around and she saw a familiar person. At first, she was slightly puzzled as to why he was here?
Was he waiting for her? Aw, how sweet.
Guys!!!
It's the last day of 2018. I don't know how to feel about this year being right beside 2019, isn't weird or is it just me hehe, anyways.....Hope you enjoyed this chapter. See ya guys tmr <3
When his mother had left and there was no longer any shadows of her, Jun Kai finally thought he should probably go out to bring the other stubborn person back. However, when he turned back to face her, he could see her gazing at the stars.
He too looked up towards the night sky.
It was just like any other nights, but it seemed she really loved it. His eyes that had been at the stars were unconsciously now looking at her.
He felt slightly confused like he was seeing things and another body was in hers. There was like two different bodies that were merged together.
However, how could that be? His feet took a few steps forward and not long, she turned her eyes to him.
Their eyes met.
He didn't go any further and just stood there.
For a moment they only looked at each other's eyes. Both captivated by their own thoughts.
Mi Rong didn't look like she was going to initiate to speak to him as she was only looking at him with her deer like eyes. As if waiting for him.
Sigh, "Let's go back now, shall we."
Mi Rong then smiled, pleased with him and she simply answered, "Yes."
Seeing Mi Rong finally standing up to her full height, Jun Kai coldly turned around without waiting for her.
Tsk, tsk such a temper.
However, there should be some points to him for coming to fetch her. Maybe she should go easy on him for her auction. Thinking about her plans, Mi Rong could not help but grin.
At least, he didn't leave her.
When the pair arrived at the main hall again, there were lesser people.
Some must have already left as there was no more news to be announced. Nevertheless, it was already quite shocking for everyone and would take time for all of them to digest it down.
Young master Jun Kai could become their boss in a few months time.
Mi Rong had been walking behind Jun Kai the whole way, not too far and not too close. She made sure that there was some distance between them as she did not want any more trouble knocking own her door.
On the other hand, Jun Kai was walking slower than usual. There was still some numbness from Mi Rong's high heels.
However, the pain was not so much as he was actually waiting for the person behind him. He didn't want her to be too far behind as he didn't want it to be like the last time. The next thing you know there might be an annoying bug clinging next to her.
Nevertheless, above the pair who were walking up the stairs, there were two watchful eyes staring at them hatefully. One was eyeing directly at Mi Rong and the other was eyeing at Jun Kai.
As Mi Rong approached the side stairs, she saw three people covered in blankets hurrying down the main stairs. When she looked closer, it was the three boys that she had met earlier.
Mi Rong couldn't help but giggle at what had happened to them. They must have been through such injustice that they were all covered up.
However, there seemed to be some fresh meat underneath those covers hehe. The trio heard a faint giggle and could not help but turn around to the noise.
They all saw Mi Rong and their expressions turned dark. Mi Rong lifted her hand to cover her mouth; however, her eyes were openly teasing them.
The three had never felt any more embarrassed in their life. She was just only a woman! They really had underestimated her.
The three all had an urge to confront Mi Rong. However, as they were about to step closer, a fierce glare was sent to them.
The person in front of Mi Rong had sensed that Mi Rong stopped in her tracks and was not following him any longer, so he had to turn around. It turns out she was actually messing around. He had to step in and stop before it got messier.
The trio saw Jun Kai approaching in the corner and when they saw his eyes, they all shivered and hurriedly walked away. It was as if they saw their worst enemy.
Jun Kai couldn't help but pull Mi Rong by the arm to get her attention from the three insects.
Mi Rong was not in time to avoid Jun Kai and could only tiredly let him pull her arm.
She rolled her eyes and lost interest in even walking. He was acting like how a parent would to their child.
She was not a kid, ugh!
Happy New Year to everyoneeee.
I hope this year would be filled with happiness for you all. Let's all be prepared for a better year! Today might be the last day for the daily release, but don't be too sad. I'll be seeing you guys on Friday same time 4.00pm (GMT+7) <3
