CH26. The family song

Ye Xiao Xiao takes a seat silently. Since she has to pay for that watch as he has said, there is nothing she can do.

However, from time to time, Lu Min Chen keeps looking her way. The side profile of her face makes his heart beat faster.

He does not know why just looking at her always gives him this kind of reaction.

Thinking that it will be good recording such a good scene, he takes out his phone and snaps a photo of her.

He stares at the photo for a long time, different emotions surging through him.

Then with a certain satisfaction that he has just gotten from her looks, he puts on a random song and goes back to work. 

His moods have been greatly lifted just by having her in his office. He wants to be keeping her to himself like this everyday.

Then it will only be a matter of days and she will have fallen in love with him. She will belong to him soon.

But things are different for Ye Xiao Xiao. A certain feeling fills her heart the moment the that song begins.

The lines of that song are greatly imprinted in her inner brain. And she is not sure when she will get rid if it.

An image of her younger self running in the snow after her dad, throwing things at each other comes to her mind again.

Another image of him feeding her a birthday cake and applying cream all over her face appears again.

These are some moments that she will never forget. And the beats of the song are so loud and very familiar.

This song was greatly loved by her dad when he was alive. And he said that he listened to it because it reminded him that he has one family member, who was her.

Whenever they were happy, they would listen to the song and even dance. They loved dancing, it was in their blood and nature.

And this song was always so beautiful and nice to her ears. It was the best lyrics she ever had in her brain. Until that fateful day, a few months ago...

Flashback

Ye Xiao Xiao walks into a hospital ward with a lunch box in her hands and looks at Ye Jin Hong, her dad who is lying on the bed.

Things have been like this for long now. It all began with just a few days, which later turned into weeks.

And the weeks gradually turned into hateful months. The hateful months that she watched her dad lying hopelessly on that hospital bed.

Her dad, who was once very healthy and lively, is now this emaciated. He cannot even leave the hospital bed for a call of nature.

Ye Xiao Xiao looks at Lin Mo, the boy she has grown up with and asks him to go and rest for a while.

This young man, despite his family status, had willingly volunteered to help her look after her dad after he fell sick.
