102 *Now she could die in peace!

"Mother, when did you fall in love with father?"

He Lin could understand the turmoil in the heart of her daughter. She didn't ask her the reason for this sudden question. She thought for sometime before replying, "I guess, I fell for him the moment he had said yes for the marriage."

Xin Mei looked at her mother who was lost in her memories. There was a unique smile on her lips which she had never seen before. Her mother looked calm and very happy.

"When my parents informed me that a prospective groom was coming to see me for my hand, I had protested. I didn't want to see any groom and I didn't want to get married, just like you."

"When he came to see me, I talked very rudely to him. I lied to him that I had a boyfriend, I drink and smoke, so I thought he would say no to me but…"

"He said yes," Xin Mei interrupted her.
