Definitely special

Mama Lu is not a kind person and was never known to be gentle. She hated noise and had never been fond of kids. Her decision to take Jade in was a huge surprise to everyone and it had surprised her at that time too.

The present.

Mama Lu is looking at her eldest grandchild with tender and loving eyes. Who would have known this cold and domineering lady could have this kind of gaze. She laid sickly on her bed while her hands are being held by Jade. "I am sorry my child, I don't think I can last any longer. I am definitely going to miss you. The future is going to be hard because I left everything to you and your family won't be happy about it. They might try and take it away from you forcefully....." she paused to take a deep breath before she continues speaking in her soft frail voice.

"I am sorry for leaving things like this but I don't want my hard work and your late grandpa work to go down the drain. Your father has little business sense and your mother is an air head while your siblings are all unreliable. I don't know how your mom raised them up that they ended up this way " Her speech interrupted by her violent cough. Jade sat there silently by her side while her hands were busy patting and rubbing her Mama Lu chest to comfort her.

Tears rolled down her cheeks as she continued to pat the only person in the world who made her feel that her existence in this world matters. "Aah.. my child, you are crying. I have never seen you shed a tear all these years and I am proud that I am the person you shed your precious tears for and I'm honoured. You are special my child, you gave me a second chance to be a real mother and your are easy to love. Ignore those blind bats. Thanks for giving me a blast 24 years." "Mama... you.. you are the one who gave me life.. not the other way round" "Then, we made a perfect pair, no need to argue until silly regarding this. Let me rest my dear."

Matriach Lu closed her eyes and the past flashes through her mind like a movie playing on 80 inch ultraHD TV.

The first scene that was playing on the big screen was the day she found out her husband death. He was murdered by his own brother but was made to look like an accident. At that time, she just delivered Wen Xin, her daughter and Wen Xin was only 1 month old at that time. She had to cut short her confinement period to manage the company affairs and deal with those scheming siblings. She had to change her personality in a instant, from a pampered wife to a fearless demoness. In this ruthless world, either you conquer or be conquered.

More scenes flashes by in a lightning speed and it stopped at the scene when she first met Jade. She was reminded of her foolish daughter in law screaming profanity to her 3 year old daughter, Jade that was getting more agitated as the clock ticks away. Jade's tiny forehead was already bruising and bleeding. The hired nannies were all acting like headless chicken and the irritating newborn boy was screaming his lungs out with all the ongoing commotion. Those foolish idiots did not realize that the poor lass just wanted peace and quiet. She herself was surprised that she somehow has a vague understanding of that lass. The lass looked so vulnerable and pitifully lonely from the back. After she managed to stop all the ruckus she decided to pretend to leave.

She was shocked that the little girl in the room immediately stopped her self harming behaviour and then started to play rubik's cube and managed to solve it within 1 minute. She remembered saying to herself that this girl is special, definitely special. She remembered sighing because of her son's blindness for failing to spot a gem. She was puzzled when she felt an instant connection to Jade. That was the beginning of her second chance in life and a jump start to Jade's life.
