Chereads / Trial Of Love / Chapter 31 - What A Coincidence?

Chapter 31 - What A Coincidence?

At the table, Elizabeth was contemplating on what to do. The foods on the table were too oily and heavy for her to eat at her current state.

Little Yan seated beside her waiting for her to eat, she kept pointing at the different dishes asking her which one she wishes to eat.

Suddenly, a bowl of rice porridge came from behind her, she turned around and saw the man placing the food in front of her. The man did not speak at all and went to Little Yan's other side.

The little girl glared at his father, with the expression telling him. "I'm taking care of Auntie, you don't need to get involved."

The man saw how cold his daughter was glaring at him and just smiled. He ignored her as he started putting some food on her plate.

"Thank you," Elizabeth said, as she started tasting the rice porridge. She was very pleased with it's taste. She was unable to control her satisfied expression when the little girl beside her notice it.

"Fine, you did good father." The little girl looked at the man as she started eating as well.

The man was in disbelief in how his own daughter was treating him. Even though he does not know what she was saying or thinking.

'Are you even still my daughter?'

The man ignored the little girl, ridiculous attitude towards him and just continued eating his food.

After dinner, Elizabeth was brought to the guest room which was next to Little Yan's room. Yun Shen has asked his assistant to buy her some change of clothes for tonight. It surprises her that the man brought too many clothes for her when she was only staying for the night.

As she was about to head to sleep, the door open and standing by the door was the little girl all dressed in her pink bunny suit.

"Want to sleep with me?"

The little girl bloated like a bullet as she jumped onto the bed.

A few minutes later, the little girl was still not sleeping. Elizabeth has never really taken care of children since she does not have any siblings. At the same time, she was the youngest so her big brother was always the one taking care of her.

"Want me to sing you a song?"

The little girl nodded.

"But promise me you'll close your eyes and sleep."

She wonders what song she would sing to put this little girl to sleep so she could rest as well.

Sun has gone down, and the star are shining

Close your eyes and dream of me beside you

Don't be scared I'll be here beside you

No matter what it takes

I'll be by your side…

Once you dream, magic starts to happen

Anything is possible

So close your eyes,

And let the magic being

Where I will be, by your side…"

As she slowly hums the melody of the song, she turned around and notice the little girl was fast asleep. She pulled the blanket over and covered her.

"Goodnight, little princess…"

She then pushed the little girl's hair away and magic did happen that night, a sweet soft little voice echoed in the room.

"Good Night."

The woman was in shock and felt like screaming, she was so happy that she did not know what to do. As she continued to control her excitement, she then notices a figure standing by the door.

"Chairman Yun."

The man walked quietly towards them.

"She came to sleep with me. I'm sorry Chairman Yun."

"It's fine…"

The man then seated at the edge of the bed and kiss the little girl on the forehead. He then notices the woman's complexion looking much paler than before, "Still painful?"

"A little, but I'll be fine."

The man then left the room without a word, leaving her alone.

Due to all the pain, she went to the bathroom.

...

That exact moment, as she was coming out of the bathroom, the man came back holding a white cloth.

"Here."

The cloth was somehow warm, she squeezed it and felt like a water bag was wrapped inside the cloth. It pleased her seeing how thoughtful the man was towards her.

"Thank you."

"That should ease the pain."

"It will…"

"Then, good night, Miss Li Zi."

"Rest well Chairman Yun."

Seeing the woman smiling right in front of him made his heart beat all of a sudden. He cleared his head as he walked out of the room. For some reason, his mind continued to picture out the girl after receiving the waterbag he gave her.

After Yun Shen left the room, she went back to the little girl's side. She grabs her phone as she messages, someone.

[Gramps: Grandpa, I'm fine... Don't worry about me. Tell Uncle not to worry as well. I'll see you both soon.]

After she sent the message, she wonders how Long and Chou are.

'...They'll probably so depressed right now seeing I didn't come home. Since the incident that happened last time, Long and Chou will surely not let anything happen to me but I don't understand why I need them when I can take care of myself. '

Elizabeth thought expressing a heavy sigh. As she continued to ponder on things, she then remembers the little girl beside him.

"Little Yan, I wonder what happened to you that you're so distant towards your own father. That he too would be surprised hearing from you as if he hasn't heard your voice."

Elizabeth was still in deep thought, that night she suddenly recalled why the man seems to be so familiar to her.

'...What a coincidence? Chairman Yun was Mr. Yun. Ah- I'm so stupid, he was the man who saved me from Mr. Mo. Who would have thought our path would cross again? I wonder if he recognized me? Probably not since I was wearing glasses back then. Who would have thought because he saves me I'll end up saving his daughter.'

As the woman continued to realize things that happened to her late, she did not realize that she has drifted off to sleep.

That night all sorts of magic happened in the Yun's residence. As both heroes path crossed together all thanks to the little girl.
