Thanks to Ling, All the elders and their wife's had a reunion kinds. They all had a delicious dinner and was chatting their heart away. Everyone was very happy that it is always Ling who brings them together whether it's past or present. Even when she was little, Ling always preferred to be around these three old man, That's how she became favorite in their hearts.
In the middle of the night, Ling slowly opened her eyes. She noticed the environment looks new and then she noticed the person lying next to her. Mingyu was sleeping next to her like a baby. Suddenly a nurse came up to Ling and asked how she is doing. She checked the Lings pulse and went to inform Elder Wu.
Originally Ling was very angry with Mingyu and his Father. Now that she thought about it, she behaved very childish. She was surprised by herself. Ling decided to speak to one person who she trusts with blind eyes, that's her grandma Gao Tai. She needs to get out of this place first. She tried to remove the IV.
Suddenly Ling heard a voice
"Ling dear, please don't so that. You will get hurt yourself otherwise" Elder Wu entered. He sat next to the chair in the bed. Elder Shen joined him. He noticed his grandson sleeping without realizing what's happening around. He felt very pity for him.
Elder Wu spoke again
"Ling dear, I'm Wu Kun. I am a close friend of your grandmother Gao Tai. We promised to take care of you to her. You speak to her in the morning if you have any doubts. You are currently at Old Wu Mansion. My young grandson Wu Wuhan brought you from hill trail early in the morning when you had fainted while walking down the hill. I suggest you continue to take rest and we resume talking in the morning. I will request the nurse to feed you something and remove the IV. Okay?"
Ling couldn't say no to old man who speaks very clearly. She decided to trust him since he mentioned her grandma and nodded her head in agreement.
Elder Wu brushed her head affectionately and left the room along with Elder Shen.
Like he said, Nurse came shortly removed the IV and gave a recovery soup to drink.
Ling requested Nurse to hand her phone. She wanted to see if they are giving her phone or not.
To her surprise nurse came back again and gave her phone.
Ling Slow trying to lift herself from the bed and walk towards the window to get some fresh air. Since she was lying down for long time since morning. Her legs were sour and cramping. She slowly managed to get closer to long glass Bay window and sat there.
Ling Immediately called her Favorite Granny Gao Tai
Gao Tai Picked it up immediately
"Darling Ling how are you feeling now. Why aren't you sleeping? Are those old hags treating you well? Tell me if they don't. I will not leave them alone."
Ling laughed out alone hearing her granny cursing her friends
"You are calling them old hags, what about you Ms. Gao Tai."
Gao Tai didn't like to teased, she said
"Do you really think they will match up to my beauty and stamina? Forget it. First tell me how you are?"
Ling laughed again. Her laugh woke one person sleeping. He opened his eyes and stared at her back. Her laugh was enchanting for his mind and body. Didn't want to interrupt her conversation on phone. Unaware of this Ling continued
"Sorry Grandma, It's my mistake. I have waited for four years. But I acted on impulse. City T looks very familiar especially Military campus looks extremely familiar. I got disturbed and acted without thinking. I shouldn't have hacked or left traces while hacking. Uncle Shen might have warned me for my own good. But my anger blinded my reasonability."
"Gao Ling, I told you many times before. Don't make repeat again. If you dig info about your past literally means you are digging a hole for yourself. Do you have any respect for my words or not?" Gao Tai asked very harshly
Gao Tai didn't want to speak to Ling in harsh manner, but Ling is paving way for problems. So she had to put a full stop as of now at least.
Ling replied "I will listen to you granny, what do you want me to do?"
Gao Tai spoke with calm and collected voice "Ling, as of now concentrate only on your work. Shen Mingyu is someone you can trust with life. He saved you before, he will save you again without blinking his eyelids. Show some gratitude to him by helping him at work. Very soon I will have to handover the huge company in your hands. Your experience with Shen industries is very crucial for that. Are you clear now?"
Ling replied "Yes granny, I will do as you say"
Gao Tai said "That sounds like my Ling, Love you so much dear. Stay safe and go back to sleep now."
The call got disconnected and Ling slowly stood from the bay window to go back to bed. Suddenly someone hugged her behind and lifted her in his arms. Ling identified by the familiar scent and didn't protest after hearing her granny Gao Tai. Mingyu placed her in the bed slowly. He sat next her and holding her hands
"Ling, I am sorry that I had failed you terribly. I'm not in a position to discuss certain things. I just want you trust me. Please don't leave me like the way you did. My heart couldn't hold such sadness. I'm sorry Ling for hurting you" Mingyu cried holding her hands
Looking at a ruthless genius business man crying in her arms, she said
"Mingyu, I am sorry as well. I shouldn't have acted in impulse. I will not do that again. I will slowly learn to trust you. Next time I will try to discuss instead of leaving, how about that?"
Mingyu was feeling relived and said "That's sounds like a great plan of action"
Both of them leaned on the bed rest chatting for a while before drifting to sleep again.
Early in the morning, next day Elder Li came inside the room where Ling was sleeping. He noticed that two people were in deep sleep. He leaned closer to Ling and said
"My dear child, I'm glad you are back" Li zexian kissed her forehead and left the Old Wu Mansion. He felt like he found his old love back.
