At the Imperial hospital, Lifen went straight to the room where Mother Wu was resting. She had already changed her outfit back to the previous one before coming to the hospital. She had accompanied Deming to the w.a.n.g Palace and had dinner over there.
"Mumma, how are you now? Were you bored all day?", she asked softly and went inside the room.
"Ah little la.s.s, you are here. Come over here. How was you day?", Mother Wu tried to sit on the bed.
Lifen walked forward to her and helped her sit, " Mumma you should rest for few days now, no need to work so hard. See how weak you have been".
"yeah ofcourse I will take leave from work this time because now you are working. Hahaha, I am so proud of you. You have grown well ,my girl", tears welled up in her eyes.
Lifen hugged her mother tightly, "Mumma, why are you crying. Am I looking that ugly. Huh".
"Silly girl, who said you ugly. You are prettiest girl in this world. I am not crying, it"s just tears of happiness", she said patting her head softly.
At that time, the door of the room was flung opened, "Aunty, that"s not fair. If she is the pretty one than what are we?". Daiyu pouted.
Guang and Daiyu entered thae room and went to other side of the bed. "Sigh, I was wrong before. You three are the prettiest girls of this world", Mother Wu chuckled.
"Hey, wait a second. What"s with your face, Lifen? You look different. Have you done makeup today?", Daiyu"s eyes shone looking at her face.
She continued, "Don"t say you went on a date. Was that him? How could you...", Guang hurriedly nudged her to look where she is blurting out her nonsense.
When Daiyu saw that Mother Wu was staring at her in confusion, she bit her tongue. "It"s nothing you heard ,Mumma. I have done a little bit of makeup today as I have to attend a formal banquet today, it was like a small formal meeting", Lifen glared at Daiyu.
"Okay Mumma, I will have to leave now as tomorrow I have to go to work. By the way, where is father?", she asked.
"Your father has went to see the doctor, he will return soon. Don"t bother, go and rest at home. You have to work tomorrow ", Mother Wu said and tilted her head towards Daiyu and Guang, "You two, also go and rest well. You have accompanied me all day, you must be tired. It would be good if you can stay tonight with her. She would be alone today".
The three nodded and bid farewell. When they stepped out of the hospital, a black Maybach was waiting outside. Seeing Lifen coming out, the door was got open and a pair of long slender legs came out.
It was none other than Deming. He was dressed in casual pants and a simple broad neck t-s.h.i.+rt. The t-s.h.i.+rt was enhancing the look of his broad shoulders and his was s.h.i.+ning when it came in contact with hers.
Daiyu and Guang was surprised when they witnessed his expression. They looked at each other. Have they missed something? What"s going on between them. When they were still busy with these questions, Deming walked forward and hugged Lifen placing her in his warm embrace as if she was something he was longing for years. She reciprocated to his hug.
Guang blinked her eyes to clear her vision,. She wasn"t able to believe what"s happening in front of her. Daiyu slipped a little close to Guang and mumbled softly, "Hey, am I the one who is seeing things or you too can see it? Why is he hugging her? Are they together? But it"s only been one day, she spent with him".
"Shhh, let"swait for her. She will tell us in the next few moments. And if she didn"t then we will ask her but we won"task in front of him", Guang muttered softly.
Lifen parted from the hug and turned to look at them. She almost laughed out loud when she witnessed their jaw dropping expression. She have expected this expression from them. By looking at them she can tell, there is a storm of questions going inside them. But she thought it would be fun teasing them a little bit.
She ignored their expression and said in a normal tone as if nothing happened, "Let"s go guys, he will be drop us". She chuckled. Deming noticed her and agreed to play along her.
"You...don"t you want to say something to us", Daiyu yelled. But Lifen smiled softly and grabbed her arm, "It"s nothing, let"s go". She tugged Guang arms too and lead them towards the car.
Then went inside the car, Daiyu and Guang emwere sitting in the backseat whereas, Lifen has accompanied Deming on the front seat. All the way to the house, they witnessed their lovely gazes.
After reaching, they heaved a sigh of relief and directly went inside the house. They didn"t dared to turn and look back. They already got enough portion of dog food today. Lifen chuckled seeing their backs walking straight inside without turning back.
She then turned to Deming and said goodbye and stepped out of the car. "Wait, you have left something ", he stepped out and went to her.
"What?", she asked. He gently pecked a small kiss on her forehead and mumbled softly in her ears, "Goodbye".
Lifen blushed and nodded, "Goodbye. See you tomorrow". She then turned and went inside. Walking inside, she was humming a soft romantic song.
When she was about to step inside the room, a soft pillow came flying to her with a great force, "You better explain everything, without leaving a single bit of it". Lifen quickly stepped aside to dodge the pillow.
The second she dodged the first pillow, the second one came flying too. This time it was from Guang. Normally she was the most cool headed person but right at this moment she was annoyed too, "This time I am with Daiyu. Tell us the full story".
Lifen shook her head and smiled at them. "Don"t show us your smile, we want your story not your smile". Daiyu stomped her feet.
"Hahaha...Okay okay, don"t get mad I will tell you everything. It"s not that I am hiding it from you. It"s just that, everything happened suddenly", Lifen said maintaining her smile which was to tease them.
