Young Lady

Dispirited, helpless, and depressed can be the words to describe Ning Rongrong. She never wanted this but what could she do?

She felt a small hand on her hands covering her face. By instinct, wiping her tears quickly she flashed a smile toward Ning Rongbing. She felt she have to be strong and thought this can have a positive effect on him.

But...

This had the opposite effect on him. Seeing the smile Ning Rongbing's face fell. He quietly mumbled:

"I am sorry mother!"

Ning Rongrong's body went stiff. She didn't even move for an inch for half a minute but she understood everything. With a flash, her hands reached her son and pulled him into her embrace.

"Never tell that. This isn't your mistake. Do you understand? Never apologize for anything not being your mistake. Do you understand?" The lines came from the bottom of her heart. Before completing the lines her eyes become hazy and her voice becomes hoarse. She couldn't hold it anymore.

Hugging her son tightly she reminisced about the past. She felt she was too selfish and adamant. If only she was a little flexible and... What? What the hell was she thinking? Why should she become flexible?

Two kinds of thoughts opposing each other flashed in her and her mood become heavy and heavy. She felt her heart becoming heavier and she couldn't bear it. Before she could collapse a small hand reached her cheeks and started to wipe her tears.

"Didn't you tell me not to apologize for the mistakes I haven't done?"

She was really shocked but understood its meaning. She raised her head to look at him but she couldn't help but stare blankly at him. She saw a young boy with a different bearing as if this wasn't worrying him.

Seeing this, her face became brighter. Hugging him tightly for a minute she gradually loosened her arms. She always thought she was stronger and she should be stronger but she never thought her son was even stronger than she was.

Seeing him not worrying about things her heart become to settle down gradually.

Three days right? Let me see...

Her heart filled with a positive vibe after seeing his son's attitude. Ning Rongbing also smiled at her seeing the change in mood in her. Relaying her till now he knows a little too much about her than anyone. His eyes started to close and he gradually fell asleep in her embrace.

Ning Rongrong stared blankly. She knew about this. Ning Rongbing had a unique habit of sleeping and waking up at the right time every day. Even having meals at the same time she realized how much time she had spent crying but she was not ashamed.

Finally, feeling the weight in her heart she carried for six years lifting off she smiled at the boy in her embrace. She carried him to his room and put him on his bed and went to sleep.

Yes, why should she worry about things that weren't in her control? She should try to do her best with what she has... She went to bed with this thought.

In the morning, when the sun had risen Ning Rongrong walked to a grand building in the clan. It was very large and was the home of one of the three guardians of the clan.

When the two guards at the entrance raised their heads they saw Ning Rongrong along with her son Ning Rongbing walking towards the enterance of the house. Before they could speak anything they heard a cold voice.

"You come in!"

Ning Rongrong stopped on her steps. Her face had a smile and she shook her head saying:

"I am not here to see you."

"Then why are you here?" this time the voice was slightly shaky but still it had the previous overbearing demenour.

"None of your business!"

The two guards shivered by the guts of this woman. No one in the tribe would dare to speak with this person with such a bearing. At least they haven't seen any. Even as mentioning his name they would show reverance and worship but to be this frank they were opened to a new world.

"What did you say?" The voice sounded very angry and a old man showed himself in the door. Even though he had wrinkled skin and silvery hair his eyes were bright and sharp.

"Its none of your business!" this time she spoke directly to him again despite seeing the soul energy fluctuating around the old man. She wasn't at all scared of him. The old man frowned seeing this but he calmed down himself.

"Why are you here for?" he asked indifferently. He know this has to be about something but he couldn't think of any.

"Call Ning Zhu and Ning Qi to come out." She said indifferently.

The old man was shocked. 'What's going on?' In his knowledge this girl haven't returned to this place for nearly six years. Even though they were staying in the same city she never approached this place. But to suddenly pop out of nowhere and demand to see this people, he was somehow confused. Anyway, he ordered the guards to call the people she demanded.

After a few minutes two woman approached the door along the guard who went to call them. Just as the two women saw Ning Rongrong they froze. Tears flowing from their eyes they rushed towards her:

"Young lady, you have returned?" they both asked in unison.

One of them was very slender with good looks and her eyes and hair was dark grey. The other one was tall and a little boyish, having short brown hair and bright eyes. Both of them were very happy to see her agian but was slightly shocked to see a little guy accompanying her. Slightly shocked they both smiled at him.

Ning Rongbing was startled. This was the first time for him to see someone to smile at him other than his mother. This feeling was really odd. Instead of smiling back he hid himself behind his mother.

Seeing his reaction the two girls looked at each other but Ning Rongrong smiled at his reaction. Perhaps he should be embarassed to see people with good will too suddenly.

"How are you both doing? Did they treat you bad?" she asked them carefully but her eyes squinted towards the old man.

"No not at all," the two girls replied hastily. Seeing Ning Rongrong squinting her eyes towards the old man, the boyish lady replied:

"At first it was a bit hard for us but its fine now."

"What do you mean by it's fine now?" Asked Ning Rongrong.

"We were assigned to take care of the young lady in the past but now we are assigned to the little young lady." The other girl replied not daring to look at her.

"That's good. I always regretted for dragging you both in this mess but now I can be finally at ease." Ning Rongrong replied her with a smile.

"young lady you..." they want to ask if she was returning to the house but what she said was like a dagger piercing their heart.
