Deming"s eyes filled with grief. He felt like he has lost something very important in his life. This is what he wanted from the day first. He wanted to take revenge for his beloved condition but now why it feels so wrong. He wanted to hurt her deeply, he wanted to engrave the pain in her heart, but now when it"s done why it feels like it has gone other way round. Why it feels like, he is sharing the same like her.
Those eyes which were once filled with belief for him, now has turn so indifferent. All this while, Lifen was just blankly staring at him, as if staring a stranger.
He opened his mouth to say something but abruptly closed it without uttering a word. He has all his words. The only thing he can say now was, "Okay".
Hearing his approval, she paced to move out of room but he gently grabbed her wrist, "One minute".
Lifen glared his hands which were holding her wrist and instantly he loosened his grip to leave her hand. "Are you going to behave like this meaning life long?" he asked firmly.
"No, I am not so mean to anyone, not even to myself. It will be like till your girlfriend doesn"t gets well. After that, I don"t think I would get ever get acquainted to you again", she said and left the room.
Deming was shocked with her words. Did her words meant that she won"t ever see him after that? Wah! I really deserves that. But I won"t let that happen.
Lifen was walking with firm steps through the corridor when she spotted Murphy comingout from the room, "Uncle Murphy".
Murphy tilted his head in her direction, "Oh Little Lifen. Is everything alright? Did he say anything harsh to you?". His eyes were continuously scrutinizing her expressions.
Lifen left out a deep chuckle and pinched his cheeks a little, "Oh Uncle Murphy, you are so cute. There is nothing like that. I am not that weak, you know".
Seeing her smile, Murphy heaved a sigh of relief, "That"s good then". The moment Deming grabbed her wrist to pulled her to out the room, he was worried for her innocent heart.
"Hmm. By the way, there is something I needed to ask you. As Gran...Ahh I mean as Dr.Yang has said earlier, was the reason for Ms.Long comatose is not depression or accident?" Lifen asked with regard to know more about Jie"s condition.
"Uhmm, look it"s like. Depression and the car accident may considered as a reason for her comatose but still there is something amiss in between. The doctors still unable to get the reason which is not allowing her body to reciprocate to the medication", Murphy informed her.
Lifen thought to herself, "So there is something that"s not allowing the medicines to work properly. If the reason comes out then she will surely recover soon. But even the best doctor of country is unable to find the clue, how will I help them".
Murphy snapped his fingers to break Lifen"s thought, "What are you thinking now?"
"Nothing, Uncle Murphy. I think I should leave now, it"s already evening. I need to hail the cab soon or I will not be able to find any", with that she waved her hand and rushed towards the exit.
On her way towards the exit, she thought to have a talk with Dr.Yang . She soon spotted him in a room, discussing the case with subordinates. She gently knocked the door. Dr.Yang understood in the first instance that she was here to talk with him so he excused himself and walked out with her.
"Thank you, Grandpa Yang for helping me today. I won"t be able to tell you the exact reason but please help me hide my ident.i.ty for now and also don"t inform my grandfather about this", Lifen said in a pleading voice.
"I know, you won"t do anything wrong girl. But still I can"t hide this from your grandfather. And about your ident.i.ty, I will try not to reveal as you know I am getting old and senile, I doubt if I can hold secrets", he laughed out.
"Okay, Grandpa Yang. I won"task you to hide this from my grandfather, but please tell him only if he ask you about me. At least you can help me like that", she chuckled.
"You really know how to weave a trap in your words. You didn"t change at all. You have turned more witty than you were in your childhood", he said in the mid of his laughter.
"One more thing, Grandpa Yang. May I get the contact number of Brother Yuzhe. I think I have misplaced it somewhere", she scratched her head to show her dumbness.
Hearing this Elder Yang"s eyes shone as bright as the the sun in the afternoon, "Why not? I would be highly pleased if you can talk to him and ask him to come back".
Elder Yang immediately shared his grandson"s number with a giddy smile on his lips. "So are you heading to your home now. It"s already dark, you get cab now. Let me ask my driver to drop you off at your place", Elder Yang suggested out of concern.
Lifen was about to nod when a chilly voice attracted their attention.
"There is no need for you to worry about her Dr.Yang"
He speedly paced with his long slender legs to close the distance and reach out them as soon as possible.
