Mysterious Masked Lady and Purple Butterfly

2 Months Later....

After travelling to the countryside to Hui Shuang's parents' home which had no one living in there, Hui Shuang and Hui Ying finally arrived to the home they wanted. The house was located in a village a surrounded by mountains and other beautiful sceneries, basically it was a tourist attraction, but most people tend not to live there for some unknown reason.

It was a Siheyuan (a historical type of residence that was found in China) and had a courtyard which was empty and a garden full of colours and vigour. Hui Shuang's parents died when Hui Shuang was a teenager since then she was raised up by her mother's sister however she also passed in the past years, so Hui Shuang didn't had any important relatives. But strangely enough there was a still worker left, who was Hui Shuang's nanny when she was young.

Hui Shuang's eyes widened in surprise as she saw Lin Lang after so many years and walked up to her happily. "Aunt Lin Lang…you are still here?"

Time seems to be extremely merciful to that woman that even if she was on her 50s, her face was still smooth and not even a single hair of her was white, and her face was still warm and gentle as before, as every one of her actions were filled with gracefulness. Lin Lang beamed at the sight of Hui Shuang as her indifferent eyes were filled with warmth, "Shuang'er….you-you have returned?!"

Laughing in excitement Lin Lang hugged her and then finally noticed the little bundle in Hui Shuang's arms, who was also curiously blinking her mesmerising purple eyes at her, "This is…?"

Hui Shuang giggled, "This is your granddaughter, Hui Ying. Hui Ying, say hello to Grandmother Lin!" Lin Lang snorted as she rolled her eyes, "I am not even married, yet you are already making me a grandma?"

"Since I am her grandmother let me hold her," Lin Lang directly took away Hui Ying from Hui Shuang's arms. Suddenly, the previous smile on Lin Lang's gentle face faded away as a cold expression took over, "Little Shuang be honest with me, where were you all these years and who is the father of Ying Ying?"

"Auntie, they are still looking for me….

They know I am alive

They know about Ying Ying

They know everything

And I know that I can't escape from their clutches but at least I will be able to give my daughter the childhood I didn't had

And the father of my child is called Guan Fengying

He….is already is the hands of them..."

"How unfortunate, don't worry about them anymore.

They won't find you guys any time soon….at least I hope so…." Lin Lang sighed, she then helped them to get their luggage out from their car as they went inside, soon they started to decorate the house and the courtyard expect for the gluttony Hui Ying who was just eating and sleeping…..well maybe exactly not....

-------------

'....'

'where…is Mama???'

'Mama?'

'Mama?'

'I want Mama!!!!!'

'Mmama!'

'Mommmmma!'

'Sob….sob….I am hungy!'

'HUNGY!'

'Sob….sob…'

'......'

Little Hui Ying was crying for her mother than for food then she just started to cry because she felt wronged but Hui Shuang and Ling Lang were busy moving the stuff, so they didn't hear any of Hui Ying's low pitched cries. However, as she cried her throat started to hurt, so she gradually calmed down though she was still hungry.

Hui Ying was looking around as her little purple eyes swept over every there and here, taking in any pieces of details. There was strange light in her eyes and it looked extremely pellicular in her eyes as she was just a baby but little Hui Ying wasn't aware of any of this as she continued to play around in the newly brought crib.

However in one instance, she turned over she masked lady looking straight into her eyes and Hui Ying being the fearless cub, looked into her eyes and smiled happily and started to sprout gibberish words as if greeting an old friend.

But it was as if the masked lady ignored whatever Hui Ying was doing ad released a purple butterfly, terribly similar to Hui Ying's eyes. The purple butterfly flew over to Hui Ying's crib like something was dragging it over.

Hui Ying didn't know what was going to happen to her next but her baby instincts told her that it wasn't exactly something good. She tried to move to dodge the butterfly which was going to land on her shoulder but before she could, the swift butterfly disappeared when it came into contact with her hand.

Hui Ying widened her eyes in surprise, cluelessly fidgeting in the crib.

'Wha is happenin!!!' Baby Hui Ying was naïve but not stupid for a baby her age, in fact she was blessed with a really sharp mind, it's just….she is just a baby…..

But she ignored it, even forgot about the masked lady.

And dozed off as she finally started to fall asleep.

What she didn't see was that the butterfly didn't disappear but instead it turned into a mark on her right hand, what's more she didn't see it was glowing so bright as she was surrounded by mystical purple halo, though it disappeared as soon as Hui Shuang came back to check on Hui Ying.
