A hint of surprise flashed across Ah Sheng’s eyes, but she could not help but laugh. His beloved was so smart. How could he hide something from her? She was just waiting for him to tell her.
“Eat first. I’ll tell you when you’re done,”Ah Sheng urged her.
Beloved shook her head. She lost her appetite in an instant. She picked up a napkin to wipe the corner of her lips and sat up straight. “I’m ready. Tell me.”
Ah Sheng was reluctant to leave. Her eyes were full of struggle. “Beloved, I may have to leave for one or two years...”
“Phew...”beloved exhaled heavily. Her body collapsed and leaned against the back of the chair. She patted her chest with one hand. “It’s good. It’s good that you didn’t tell me that you have an incurable terminal illness...”
“Hehe... how could that be?”Ah Sheng patted her head. “Beloved, will you wait for me to come back?”
“Where to?”
“England...”
Rong Darling took a deep breath. “Is it because of... Your Family?”
