323 Meeting him

Liu Wei laughed;

''These eyes are just for you, no one else, and you're always going to be around ''

She nodded and hugged him around the waists.

''Now go take a shower, I'll be waiting for you.'' Kissing his chest, she said;

''Uh, come let's shower together. ''

''I want to do something; I'll join you in a while. ''

''Okay, then; '' he replied and turned around to enter the bathroom

''Wait! '' She exclaimed, he turned to look at her, his brows creased;

Liling stared at him for a while, trying to imprint his face in her mind; after a few seconds she hugged him again;

Liu Wei laughed;

''Sunshine, you're acting strange, what's wrong? ''

''What? I can't hug my husband when I want? '' She said, laughing briefly.

''Okay now, go in, I'll join you briefly. ''

''Alright ''

As soon as Liu Wei was inside the bathroom, the tears she had been holding all day long came flowing down her eyes.

But she didn't even have time to cry; quickly, she hurried to the closet where she hid a little bag she had packed earlier on, there was nothing much inside,? a few red notes, her passport and travel documents, her precious necklace and her letter.

She had written it the night before, when Liu Wei was sleeping, she had sneaked into the bathroom. As she came out of the closet, she picked up her phone and ordered a ride.

Taking a last look at the bathroom, tears clouded her eyes again.

She forcefully looked away and walked towards the door. Quietly, she pulled it open and tiptoed downstairs. She dropped the letter on a couch and left the house. She could have left it on the bed but she figured that he might come out soon and see it; she wanted to be far away before he found it.

By the time she arrived outside, the Uber was already waiting;

''Where to, Ma'am? ''

''Just drive ''

Liling quickly called the Yan Ran's number, it rang for a few seconds before the person on the other side picked.

''I've left him, where is my father? ''

''Uh-uh, too fast, I thought you would be foolish enough to try me, ha'' Yan ran said laughed mockingly;

Liling was infuriated but she bit her lower lip to steady herself to avoid doing something that would danger the life of her father.

''Yan Ran, the more you waste time, the more likely Liu Wei is to getting you, I hope you act wisely. ''

Yan Ran was quiet for a moment;

''Have you booked your flight? ''

''Yes, leaves in thirty minutes; ''

''Alright, we're at the airport, call me when you arrive. ''

Before Liling could reply the call had disconnected.

She peered at the screen of her phone for a moment, her mind going back to Liu Wei and wondering what he would be doing now, she prayed he would be able to live without her for as long as they would be apart.

''Where is he? I'm at the airport now. ''

''Where are you? ''

''At the parking lot; the left wing. ''

''Okay, I see you now, just wait there. ''

The call disconnected again, and in the next few minutes, a van drove towards her; the door opened and Yan Ran stepped out;

''Well, well, what do we have here? ''

''Yan Ran, I'm sure you know that we don't have time for this. ''

Yan Ran scoffed; ''That's true, so your father is inside, we'll let him go safely, once we're sure that you're inside the plane and heading to Japan.''

''How am I sure that you're going to release him as you said? ''

She scoffed; ''You should be asking what we're going to be doing with that filthy thing you call your father, I can't believe that a five star rated model would leave her father to live such a lowly life… but that's by the way, I can't have blood on my hands and even if I would, it would be yours, your father is worthless to me, baby.''

Liling was quiet for a while;

''Let me see him before I leave; ''

''Bring him out! ''

Yan Ran said and after a few seconds, Liling heard some shuffling inside the van. The doors opened and her father stepped put.

''Give us some space…''

She said to Yan Ran, when she saw that she wasn't leaving.

Yan Ran hesitated for a moment before walking to the other side of the van.

It's been years since she last saw him, after he had sent her away from his home. He hadn't changed so much aside from the grey hairs that had started appearing;

Liling didn't know if he was willing to see her, so she forced a smile;

''father…''

As she called him, her father threw himself into her arms;

''Liling, I'm so sorry. I'm sorry for chasing you away at that time, I've lived with the guilt over the years, I'm so happy that I could finally see you, that I can finally apologize. I'm so sorry. ''

He apologized, crying profusely. At that moment, she couldn't bear to hold any grudge against him; she had a lot of things on her mind to think of holding a grudge. Her hands lifted up slowly and she hugged him back;

''It is okay father, you're safe now. Take this card, get yourself a good apartment, start a new life, find something doing; I'll come find you when I come back, okay? ''

''Where are you going to? Hope I didn't cause any problems? ''

''No, not at all, I'll just be out of the country for a while, I'll be back soon, trust me, get yourself a good phone and call me on this number when you're safe, okay? '' She wrote down her number on a piece of paper and gave it to him.

''Alright ''

Liling hugged him for the last time,

''Aren't ?you guys through, we're running ?out of time. ''

''I'll be going now. ''

Liling said, biding him farewell and walking towards the airport.
