The real Lucien held his aching jaw and felt a liquid dripping from his chin, “You gave me a good blow, Li Wei.” Wiping the blood, he muttered.
Li Wei tightly grip on his fist and the cracking sound of his finger can be heard, “*crack* *crack* Of course! This is a once in a life time opportunity, Li Guang!”Lucien stood up straight and walked closer to the man, he extended his hand out and with a grin, Li Wei quickly grabbed it and pulled his one and only brother into an embrace, “ Been so long huh, Li Guang.” He mumbled.Separating from the man’s embrace, Lucien smiled, “It is indeed. I never thought that yo would fly here just to confirm that I’m alive.”“You punk! Because it’s unbelievable that after seven long years of you gone missing without a trace, you just came back in a snap. What happened to you?” Li Wei’s serious tone turned the goofy atmosphere earlier.LucienAfter Li Guang was told to inform the other family members, he quickly went to the fourth floor where Lihua was taken. Upon his arrival on the floor he meet mr. Jian. “Li Wei is awake.” He said in a calm manner not to surprise the elder but then Mr. Jian, dashed towards the elevator as soon as his brain processed that his son was awake. Once the elevator door closed, Li Guang paced towards where the information station was. Li Guang was about to ask a question when a hand touched his shoulder, “Why are you here, Mr. Li?” Li Guang glanced at the person beside him and saw one of the Zhou family’s bodyguard, “Where is Lihua’s room?” He asked.“She’s still in the emergency room. I was ordered to grab something to drink for the Madames’ and for Miss Xu.” Li Guang’s eyes landed on the three drinks that the man was holding.“Let’ go.”
Li Wei leaned his back on the chair and he looked at Lucien with a serious expression on his face. "What will you do now? Did you agree to help the sister of your deceased first girlfriend?" Pursing his lips together, Lucien heaved a deep sigh, "I somewhat made a deal with her. I'll help her get revenge on Hugo and she'll help me get back on my knees." Lucien lowered his head down, "I somewhat got back on my knees and I did it all for Jingfei but I guess I was already late." "Seven years is not a short time, Lucien.""I know that. I know it very well, Li Wei. Believe me, I wanted to go back to her as soon as possible but my preparation had took too long than what I have expected. Our house took long to get build." "Would you like me to help you get her back?" Li Wei offered but Lucien only shook his head and smiled slightly, "No, I want her to have the love she deserves now. She have already emphasizes it that she won't go back to my arms even if she knew I am
Later that night, after they had their dinner, the kids who were tired from playing after their baking session with their Aunt Jingfei, were sitting comfortable while enjoying their desserts. HuiLi had a small plate filled with pudding infront of him, Luwei was enjoying his milk flavoured cookies while Huihui had two slices of strawberry cake in front of her. Both Grandma and Grandpa Zhou were sitting on the couch facing the kids. “Grandma, would you like some desserts? How about you Grandpa?” Jingfei shouted from the kitchen. “No thank you dear. I had enough desserts earlier. But your Grandpa would like to have a small slice of pudding.” The elder Madame Zhou uttered.As the elders were enjoying the company of their grandchildred, Lihua and Jingfei busied themselves with the desserts. “I’ve missed your desserts, Feifei!” Lihua uttered as she shoved a spoonful of pudding on her mouth. “That’s why I made so
The man waved his hand and smiled at the woman. Jingfei, who was still processing the man’s sudden appearance never left her sight on him. “You two know each other?” Jingfei attention was caught by her best friend, she slightly nodded her head without averting her gaze on the woman. “Yes, he is the cousin of my boyfriend, Alexander and he also lives at the same apartment building. I didn’t know that you are acquainted to Brother Li Wei.” She uttered to Hugo, who was also staring at her.“Well, I also didn’t know that you are close to them. After you left earlier, I got a call from him and invited me for a cup of coffee and now for a meal.” Hugo explained, partially the truth and the lie before he looked at Lihua, “I’m sorry for intruding, Madame Jian.”“Your my husband’s guest. But you really look like someone I’ve known.” Lihua shifted her gaze on her best friend, “Isn&rs
Darling that is enough! You should eat your dinner first. Is Mr. Alarie going to stay for tonight? It’d be to late for him to go home.” Lihua picked the glass bowl and carefully walked towards the dining area. Jingfei proceeded to where the kids are after seeing Luwei trying to sit on the chair. Standing back on his feet, Hugo was about to answer Lihua’s question when Li Wei spoke first before him, “Yes! He’ll stay. Jingfei will also stay here for tonight right? You two should go home together tomorrow since you live in the same building.” Li Wei suggested. Jingfei slightly froze when she was about to pick HuiLi up. The thought of her being with him for almost an hour made Jingfei stomach tingle because of an unknown sensation.Li Wei vaguely glanced, “Well is it okay for you Feifei? I’ll give you a month of free service at my restaurant.” Jingfei squinted her eyes, “You’re not joking right?” Li Wei o
A white Maserati’s engine died down after it was parked in front of a villa. Hugo hurriedly went out from the car and roamed his gaze around the house. It was already dark but the owner of the villa can afford to buy lots of light post for her house to illuminate the surroundings.“Still flashy as ever.” He mumbled before deciding to make his way towards the door. Hugo grabbed his phone and opened his messages. He entered the password on the automatic lock door. Once the door opened, the man let himself in. He closed his eyes as soon as the smell of lavender entered his nose. Hugo roamed his eyes on the house. The walls were painted with white that adds to the spaciousness of the first floor that only have a set of couch and several bookshelves as it’s furniture. The man’s attention was then caught by the sound of water, he glanced on his left and saw a water fountain attached on the walls. There were also plants and a small in-door pond that catches the water. Hugo’s fee
Two days had passed since the incident between Jingfei and Hugo. The man never showed his face again in front of Jingfei, at the apartment building or even in the restaurant, which the staffs had gotten more curious and worried since none of them had any contact even Jingfei and Alexander ddin’t know his whereabouts. Currently, Jingfei is making some desserts for lunch. She asked Anais to prepare something for the children who were having conversations with the other employees. Lihua along with Li Wei and the children came to the restaurant even though they were still closed for the moment. “Chef Xu, I can take care of this. You go and entertain your friends. The children have been asking for you, they are quite adorable.” Anais squeezed the her hands as she was thrilled at the cuteness of the tree children. “I have memorized and practice your recipe book chef and even did a taste test with our employees.” Anais proudly informed
Hugo just looked at the woman’s back as she entered the restaurant... He couldn’t do anytging to stop her nor pull her away from the place. He just stood on the smae spot motionless. Once Nymphis entered the restaurant, all eyes landed on her. They where baffled at the woman who clearly entered without reading the sign on the door... Still Closed... But Jingfei had her eyes open wide when she saw the woman’s face.. She quickly strode towards the woman to attend to her. “Ms. Nymphis! What are you doing here? I’m sorry but we are still close at the moment.” “Oh no! It’s alright! I am here for you.
