Chapter 87 - Chapter 87 To forget about him

It was midnight when Jin Liwei came back to the house. The first thing he did was to go to her room and on opening it, he confirmed that she was gone. He stepped inside to take a closer look at the room.

He could feel the emptiness even though her scent still lingered in the air.

His eyes looked at the neatly laid bed where he had gotten used to seeing her laying with her hair scattered all over the pillow.

He looked at the table and realized that she had left the ATM card and her phone. Is it because he bought it for her? He was clearly displeased. He sat on the bed for a while before standing up and left the house. It looked more empty than he had assumed it to be. Sitting in the car, he decided to drive back to the penthouse.

The next day in the afternoon, Li Fei prepared to leave for Beijing. "FeiFei, I have a suggestion. Why don't you stay here with me? I will talk to Jing Yue and he will give you a job. Just go and visit your parents then come back," Liling proposed. "No Liling. I can't work for Jing Yue because he's Mr Jin Liwei's friend," she said.

"Okay, I can tell him to recommend you to another friend then," she suggested.

"No Liling. I honestly need to leave Shanghai.

Maybe that way, I will be able to forget about him," she said. Liling nodded at this and said," I will miss you so much. When will I be seeing you again?" "I will be coming to visit you," Li Fei assured her.

Liling escorted her to the airport and soon, she boarded the flight to Beijing.

It was four in the late afternoon when Li Fei reached the house. She stood outside the big mansion where she grew up from. None of her parents expected her. She knocked on the gate and soon, it was opened revealing the gate man. "Hello, I'm Li Fei. Are my parents home?" she asked. "You're welcome. Mrs Li is home please come in,"he said standing at the side so that she could come in.

Li Fei went inside and walked to the house looking around and she realized that everything was still as she remembers. The Butler came to open the door and he looked pleased to see her. "What a surprise, Ms Li," he couldn't help but say. "Indeed.

Where's Mom?" she asked. "She's in her bedroom. I don't think she expects you else she would have told me to prepare your favorite dishes. I will go inform her that you're here." "Don't bother about that. I will go find her," she said and took her suitcase to her room. She found all her things intact and it made her wonder because as far as she remembers, the house was occupied by other people by the time it was sold. She left her room then walked towards her mother's bedroom and she couldn't imagine the look that was going to be on her face.

Reaching, she knocked on the door and she heard her saying that she can come in. Opening the door, she found her Mom laying on the bed with eyes closed and she had a facial mask. She couldn't help but smile. She has never changed. Always doing skin care routine to maintain looking younger and attractive.

Realizing that the person wasn't saying anything, Li Mei asked," Who's it?"

"Why don't you open your eyes and see for yourself," said Li Fei and on hearing the voice, her eyes instantly opened. Seeing the person standing next to her, she jumped off the bed and reached to her before embracing her tightly. " You're such a bad daughter! You didn't tell me that you were coming!" "Mom, I can't breathe," mumbled Li Fei and it's when she was released. "Why didn't you tell me that you were coming?! I would have picked you up from the airport! I didn't even get to make your favorite meals," she complained. "I would have ruined the surprise then Mom. How are you doing?" she asked. "I'm okay as you can see, taking care of myself as always. I will inform your Dad that you're here. But no, let it be a surprise," she said and Li Fei couldn't help but laugh. Li Mei went to wash her face and she came back saying," Let me hope you're not leaving tomorrow, just like last time."

"No Mom. Infact, I came to stay permanently," she said making her way to sit on the couch. "Wait, you mean to say that you're going to stay here forever?" she asked to be sure and on nodding, she came and hugged her again. "Thanks. I was missing you so much," she said and took a seat next to her. "I missed you too Mom."

"By the way, tell me FeiFei. You stayed at Jin Liwei's place? Why did you do that? And how did that heartless man treat you?"

"Mom, I honestly don't want to talk about anything right now. I just want to have a taste on your handmade Chowmein. What do you think about that?" she proposed to divert the topic. "Anything for my precious daughter. Let me go to the kitchen this instant," she said standing up and Li Fei followed her.

In the evening at eight, Li Bao came back home and as usual, he sat in the parlour and leaned his head against the couch. Ever since he got more shares in the company, he got more responsibility. As he was still resting, he heard a voice," You look tired." His eyes opened and he saw that indeed, he wasn't mistaken. It was his daughter.

"Li Fei! W-what a surprise! When did you come?" he asked. She sat besides him and answered," I came in the afternoon. I didn't tell you because I wanted to surprise you." "I'm surprised indeed. I wasn't expecting you at all. How are you, how have you been?" he asked.
