My reflection in your eyes

Du Ru Ran became an orphan at the age of 5 years old after a deliberate car accident. She was then taken in by her uncle. Life was truly tragic but being a smart girl, she managed to turn the tides around. She plans to avenge the death of her parents and her little brother who she did not get to meet in this lifetime. At that time, thank her lucky or unlucky star, she met a pair of mother and son, who gave her some warmth in her moment of total darkness. Years later, when they meet again, he stuck to her like a fly she could not get rid off. He kept insisting she took advantage of him when they were young and insisted that she take full responsibility for him. 20 years ago: "Little girl, you really need to take responsibility on this young master when we are older. I am never going to let you go." He whispered into her ears. Due to his illness, he somehow grew up a little mature than peers his age. Hence, it wasn't a normal for him to be thinking about his future at such young age. In fact, since he was three years old, he had been groomed to be a fine young man in order to prepare him as he is the next heir of his prestigious family. He fell asleep with a smile on his face. At the present: She thought a dumb cupid made a mistake by accidentally release an arrow and the arrow went straight to a 7 year old boy and now, 20 years later, he is delusional. "Why can't you leave me alone? I really have no time, no room for another person. I am pretty occupied with getting my revenge. Go and fly away," she said while making the hand gestures of shooing a pesky fly away. "You really don't need to work hard on my behalf, I am touched that you worry about my well being and feeling. As long as I get to see you, that is all I require. You really don't have to do anything." Ru Ran felt her head is going to explode, shameless, when did I, how on earth did he manage to lift himself so high that even direct language don't get to his thick skull? Fine, if you don't want to leave, I will walk away. True to her thoughts she walked away huffing and puffing, fuming at the fly she can't get off. "Wifey wait up!!!" "Seriously, what do you see in me?" she asked impatiently. Instead of answering her immediately, he spun he around to face him, pushed her to lean against a nearby wall, locked her body with his legs and arm in order to stop her from escaping. His facial expression turn serious, gone the silly demeanor he had put up earlier. Her heartbeat increased and her palms started to sweat. She stuttered, "What.. What.. Just what do you plan to do?" "I am going to answer your question. Look me in the eyes. I see a beautiful lady, a stubborn one, cold exterior but inside she is kind and afraid to get hurt. She gave me a kiss 20 years ago and gave me the strength to live and from that day onwards, I have given my heart to her." A story about love and revenge. (I hope so) Updates: 1 chapter / day occasionally can go up to 2 chapters a day depending on my creative thoughts as well the time that is available for me to write P/s: cover is not my own work.

Bantering

Ji Yu kissed Ru Ran passionately before letting her go. "I'm just going to be a clingy husband until the day death do us part," he then poked her lower abdomen and spoke in a commanding tone, "Daddy loves you but mummy is going to be the person daddy loves the most, you better behave yourself in there and when you come out daddy will personally teach you how to behave."

"Hey, don't scare the little guy in there!" she reprimanded him with her eyes twinkling.

"By the way when the little fella is out, you are not allow to favor him or her more than me, I have read some where that once a child comes into a marriage couple life, it can cause some disharmony because the husband feel neglected," he pouted.

"Look at how childish, you are behaving Shen Ji Yu! This poor child has yet to be born and you are already vying for attention," she stuck her tongue out at him.

"Plus, what nonsense are you spouting about disharmony, isn't this child a result of love, shouldn't this child bring us closer?" she asked with an eyebrow raised at him.

"Yes, yes, whatever my darling says its right, by the way, just promise me, I won't end up as a second class citizen once our child is born, okay?" he hurriedly pacify her and kept his thoughts to himself, he could remember clearly how his father was often annoyed with him when he was young because he took up most of his mother's attention. He better get her to promise him and once the child is born, all he need to do is remind her. He smiled brilliantly, satisfied with himself for his brilliant plan.

Ru Ran stared at her husband suspiciously before giving him her word that she won't neglect him in the future. Hearing her reassurance, Ji Yu tenderly patted her lower abdomen and spoke gently, "My small baby, don't give mummy a hard time ya, don't worry, daddy will take care of you, mummy will need to take care of daddy."

"Then who is taking care of me? So your plan is to dote on our child and have me dote on you and in the end, I'll be the neglected party and end up as a child breeding machine" Ru Ran joked as she pinched him lightly.

"Oops, didn't think you will see through my plan so fast," he said while laughing.

Ru Ran pretended to act angry and turned her back on him. "Silly woman, I'll dote on you for the rest of my life, if you tell me to go right, I won't go left, if you tell me to starve, I won't eat...

Ru Ran silenced him by putting her finger to his lips. Her tummy started to rumble interrupting their cheerful banter.

"Hmmph, if you hadn't interrupt my cooking earlier, we would have probably eaten already," she harrumphed.

"It's my fault, I can get them to send the breakfast up," he said.

"I want to eat downstairs, I don't want to stay in bed or in the room, I..

He suddenly understood her reason, the past weeks she had been lying in bed helplessly and being confined or in bed, reminded her of her past week experience. He felt guilty for restricting her too much.

"Okay, why don't you go down first while I tidy myself, you can eat first if you are hungry, later we can walk around the garden, I have made some changes to it," he suggested gently.

She nodded her head in agreement and gave him a kiss before heading downstairs.

Meanwhile, Ah Li was once again upset with his men at the latest news update.

"These days the only reports I received are FAILURES! No one got anything done! My daughter still alive! Despite she does not pose a threat now does not mean she will never pose a threat! She might recall something and lead them here! I don't like loose end. Du Ru Ran is still ALIVE!!! If during vegetative state you guys can't touch her, do you think your chance is higher now?!"

"Boss, things are not so hopeless, I have got some good news, yesterday Mr Peter received a call from Young Master Han, he wants Mr Peter to kidnap Ai Sha, from the conversation, it did not seem like he have any good intentions, plus he told Mr Peter to get someone to confuse the security personnels following Ai Sha with a decoy. Maybe if we can send out more people to help out Mr Peter, then if anything were to happen to Miss Ai Sha it won't be pinned to us," said Ah Li's assistant confidently.

He was at luck because he was gambling with the man called Peter when he overheard Peter's conversation with Young Master Han.

"Another thing boss, that day in the hospital it wasn't all failure, that day when Du Ru Ran had a seizure, one of the nurse we bribed had injected Du Ru Ran with a medication that can cause abortion and she bleed to death, the nurse told me to wait at least a week for the effect, she just called a moment ago, before this she could not make any call for fear of being found out." he said with a laugh.

"At last, some good news! Good, I will give you bonus and increase your salary by 40%. Hahaha haha. Retribution is near for Du Ru Ran. Your mistake is being related to Du Wen Hao!!"
