For the next two days, Yin Chen noticed the change in Li Fei's behavior and she wondered what the problem could be. She would no longer join her at the table but rather have her meals in her room. She left the kitchen to go talk to her and on passing by the main door, she saw Wang Mel who had just arrived carrying a box. "Good morning sir," she greeted him. "Good morning, I have this resignation package for Ms Li Fei. Please give it to her."
Surprised, Yin Chen got it from him and said," Thank you." He nodded and left.
Walking to her door, she knocked on it before opening it and found her in bed.
She walked and placed the box on the table then said," Wang Mel brought this saying that it is your resignation package." "Thank you," she replied spiritless. Yin Chen went to sit beside her on the bed.
A while later, she asked," Li Fei, is everything okay? You can tell me if anything is bothering you." "I'm leaving soon," she said. "I'm not getting you," said Yin Chen. "I'm leaving this house, the company and probably Shanghai. Mr Jin Liwei let me go," she said. "Oh?! I'm going to miss you so much. I was used to your company," she said. "I will miss you too. And everything in Shanghai," she said. "You'll be going back to Beijing?" she asked. "Yes," she replied. Yin Chen didn't get it. If she was free, she had to be happy, isn't it?
A while later, she said," You don't look to be happy. Tell me Li Fei, do you love the Young Master?"
She took a while to reply," Unfortunately yes." Yin Chen wasn't surprised because she had suspected it. But from what she knew, the both of them had mutual feelings although being together would be difficult. "I understand and I can't blame you because despite everything he's an attractive man. I'm not sure about your ending but what I know is that you're special to him," she said.
"I don't think so," Li Fei said. "I think so. I've never seen him close to another woman except his wife. You're definitely extraordinary to him," she said and stood up to excuse herself out of the room.
Li Fei wondered what she had to do. She didn't want to leave without at least seeing him for one last time. But he had taken two days without coming home and she didn't want to overstay her welcome. She had earlier planned on going to the company to resign and find an excuse of going to the CEO'S office to at least look at him but now, she couldn't. Everything has been brought home and she had no excuse. She got out of bed and went to check in the box and found the usual things. Her eyes caught sight of an ATM card and she picked it. Checking the balance on the card, she realized that there was five hundred thousand Yuan. She wondered what it was for because she had worked for only two months and on top of that, she had missed a number of days. She walked to the closet and started picking out her clothes.
That night, she slept hoping that Jin Liwei could come home that night so that she could see him the next day before leaving.
In the morning, Yin Chen came in her room and found her coming out of the bathroom. Seeing the packed suitcases, she said," Don't tell me you're leaving now." "Not now. I will go later. Uhm... he didn't come home, did he?" she asked and Yin Chen shook her head.
"I will have to go regardless," she said sadness visible in her eyes. "I came to inform you about breakfast. Are you coming at the table?"
"Yes. I will be joining you shortly."
Finally, evening came and Li Fei realized that she had to go. She had to leave this house, Jin Liwei's life. She sneaked into his room to at least take a final look at it.
His scent was filled in the air even though he had spent three days without sleeping there. She looked at everything,his bathroom, the pictures on the wall and after, she went to his walk in closet and took a look at everything. Everything was so organized and she was sure that he would know if a thing was touched.
She finally left his room, she had to.
She went to her room, her former room to be exact and picked up her stuff.
"You're leaving this late? Why don't you go tomorrow morning?" asked Yin Chen worriedly.
"I'm not going to Beijing tonight. I'm going to sleep at Liling's house and leave tomorrow," she said. "Okay. That is better," she said before giving her a small box and said," This is for you." "You don't have to give me this. It's absolutely okay," she said. "It is rude to reject a gift," said Yin Chen and Li Fei took it.
Opening the box, there was a pearly bracelet.
"It is so beautiful. Thank you so much," she said and inched closer so that they could share a hug. "I know we shall get to meet again. Even though I don't know when. Have a safe trip," said Yin Chen.
It was nine in the evening when Li Fei reached Liling's house. She hugged her tightly because she knew how she was feeling at that particular moment. Sitting at the couch, she said," I didn't get to see him for one last time." "It's okay FeiFei. Everything will be okay," she tried to console her. "I don't think anything will be okay. I will always live with this void in my heart," she said. "You shouldn't be so sad. If you two were destined to be together, fate will bring you together again and if not, you'll find someone who will get to love you," she said. "I don't know what fate has in store but I'm sure of one thing though. That I'm not going to love any other man but him," she said. "Aww, you're making me sad. Let me get you something to calm down," she said before making her way to the kitchen.
