It was already dark outside. The street was buzzing busy and all the the streetlights were brightly lit giving out a scene of over-ornate city. And the cream of the crop of this warm season is nothing else but the soft cool fragrant breeze coming from the flowering trees planted on the sides of the streets. The City Z of Country A was well known for it developing corporate world and the nature friendly environment.
A black Maybach was speeding down the street, desperately aiming towards its destination. The person driving the car has clenched the steering wheel, his eyes showing a hint of happiness and eagerness to share this happiness with a certain someone. After quite long period of time, he was feeling so much at ease, his heart was now comfortable. The realization in his heart has taken away all his pain away.
"How was I so dumb that I couldn"t even understand my own feelings? And not to mention my biggest sin. I even broke her heart and that too horribly. Why did I behaved like a lunatic that time? Can"t I be a little sensible with her?" he reproached himself while focusing on the streets in front.
"Okay! Let bygones be bygones. I can"t change the past but today I promise to myself that I will always cherish her, now matter even she rejects me. My heart will only belong to her and only her. I will make up to her for all my past mistakes. I will let her punish me as she wish but I will always be by her side", his words were carrying the entire aura of sincerity of the universe and his eyes were s.h.i.+ning with the immense happiness in his heart.
After confronting his own true feelings of heart with help Murphy, Deming didn"t waste any further time. He quickly speed his car to reach Lifen. He wanted to express his true feelings to her as soon as possible. Now after knowing the intentions of his own heart, he can"t take the distant behaviour of Lifen. And even more to his concern that he don"t want to lose her to anyone. He knew very well that she was a gem in her unique type and if it get any late he will surely lose her.
Soon the car pa.s.sed the lane of Yangzhei University and then stopped in front of fully packed coffee-shop, "Impresso-Expresso".
He can see inside the cafe Mother was standing behind the counter and discussing something with the staffs while many youngsters were busy sipping coffee and munching the cakes and various other snacks. Lifen was not there helping today.
He sat inside the car and was silently looking inside the cafe particularly Mother Wu as if trying to resemble her face with Lifen but to his little surprise, it didn"t resemble in any sense. He then thought the she might resemble with her father but after giving some thought, he shook his head. Then he mumbled to himself, "Ofcourse she is all unique. Why would she resemble to anyone. She will only resemble to the face which is now in my heart. Aishhh! Deming you are all gone. How can you behave like a teenage boy? "
He shrugged off his thoughts and swiftly stepped out of the car to head towards the cafe.
When the door of the coffee shop pushed inside, Mother Wu gazed towards the entrance and the Deming"s silhouette came to her sight. She knew that Life was once working under him, but it didn"t last for any long. She had already met him quite a few times now and was very grateful for his help in the past.
She quickly went forward to receive him, "Mr.w.a.n.g, it"s an honour that you came to our shop. Have a seat!. I will get you out best ones."
Deming gave her polite bow to greet first, "Aunt Wu!"
Mother Wu didn"t thought that such an amazing business would ever care for such formalities but when gave some fine thought, then she realized that he was always been polite like this in their past meetings too.
She gave a gentle nod to him.
"Aunt Wu, I am looking for Lifen. Is she here or at home?" Deming asked in a polite manner.
"Umm Sorry, Mr.w.a.n.g .She is not at home . I think it will be a little late in her return. Let me make a call to her and ask her?" Mother Wu said calmly and swiftly went to make a call.
After few seconds, Mother Wu left a waiteress came with a cup of Piccolo Latte to serve him, "Sir, would you like anything in snacks?". Her eyes were gazing his handsome face. It might made anyone uncomfortable but not w.a.n.g Deming because he was always used with these stares.
"Nothing else", he replied and the the waitress soon retreated back but her eyes were still on his handsome face admiring his heavenly beauty. Not only her, but many other girls and waitress present there were taking a sneaky glance at him.
Deming then started sipping the coffee slowly, ignoring everyone gaze and waiting patiently for Mother Wu"s return.
After few minutes, Mother Wu returned. Deming stood up and his eyes waiting for her words. "Mr.w.a.n.g, she will be late today so I don"t think it will be possible for you to wait any further and even it will be of no use. When she returns, I will ask her to call you", Mother Wu said a little hesitantly.
Seeing her hesitant, Deming could almost guess all Lifen"s words on the call. She might have just said her that she would be quite late and would have asked Mother Wu to send him back. But right now, he wouldn"t say anything to her and will wait for Lifen till she arrive.
He gave a nod to Mother Wu, "Okay, Aunt Wu. I will make a call to her afterwards. Now I will ask your leave."
He then move to the cash counter, paid for the coffee and left the coffee-shop. He went inside his car and drove it a little distance so that he can wait for Lifen.

"Grandpa, you knew that I will soon be leaving and so till the time I am here I want to spend it with Mother", she said and then started to pack up.
"And for you, I am sure when I will be away, you will often visit me and then I will have my food with you. So for the time being, let me enjoy my days with her", she stood up and waited for her grandfather"s to say his words.
"Okay okay, as you wish. I know you love her more than your old grandfather. I regret accepting to silly request in your childhood. It made me distant from you. You can go, I will have my dinner with Huang Fei after he return sending you off"
Lifen gave a low chuckle and went to hug her her grandfather and gave small peck on his cheek, "Oh my cute grandpa, you are too cutee!! I love you too. Don"t be jealous. I so wish to see grandma. She would have too bear your jealousy in your days".
A warm smile came to his lips when he heard her mention her grandmother. She has never met her but he has always told her their stories. "Okay okay, go now. I am not jealous of anyone because I know you will soon be back. Why to care about temporary distance. After all you are heiress Li Corporation! And soon I will announce it to the whole world proudly "
"Hmmm, that"s my grandpa",Lifen nodded and then walked towards the door bidding farewell to her grandfather. Huang Fei was already waiting for her with the car. When she got in, he drove her back to the Wu residence.
