Chapter 47: Hu Residency (Part-2)
[POV Bai Chang]
I felt too drained after the entire day of work. I really need to build up my stamina. I feel tired and times like this reveals to me, that I am not fully recovered. My body is still getting used to movements after three years of inactivity.
In the car, Xiao Wei and I hog the back seat to ourselves, while, Qiang is in charge of driving us home.
We goof around in the back seat and soon fall asleep.
In my sleep I feel a slight tug, it's unfamiliar and I tighten my hold but a warm hug binds me and I feel comfortable again.
*****
I woke up in an unfamiliar room, my heart starts beating fast.
I look around and find Qiang's coat lying around on a chair, right in my line of sight.
I moved out of the room and start looking for him.
I hear some indistinct noise.
I start walking towards this source of the sound.
"You un-filial son, she just woke up, and still a long way from complete recovery and you are already making her slave away in your cheap company.
Are there dearths of people on earth, hire helps there, why must my daughter slave for you?
What have you done for her to deserve her hard work and kindness?
Don't forget that she slaved for nine months, to bring Xiao Wei to this world for your one unintentional mistake, that night.
Wife, where is my cane? He deserves beating on his back, to make him walk the straight path."
It took me by surprise, the concern of Mr and Mrs Hu felt genuine. They truly worry about Bai Chang more than Qiang.
It comes as a surprise to me.
I would be lying if I don't admit that my heart softened a little for this family at this very moment.
I look around and see Qiang's guilty face.
It seemed like he really wished someone would save him from the situation.
This one time let me save him; later in private, I would punish him.
"Mom, I am hungry," I called out while rubbing the sleep away from my eyes.
They all look towards me,
Qiang looks at me as if he saw the guardian angel that saves him.
(He looks so cute.)
I look around, Mother Hu walks up to me, "Come dear, let's get you freshened up."
As she spoke, she dragged me towards some other room.
This seems like Bai Chang's old room.
Mother Hu brings me to a walk-in closet. "Bai Chang, we arranged for some fresh sets of clothes for you here, so that you are comfortable when you are here.
Forgive my foolish son; he made you work so hard. On another side, do not forgive him; he needs beatings to walk the straight path, his father is absolutely right to look for his cane."
I looked towards this tough woman, who seems more used to power than soft words and here she is, speaking soft and kind words of concern to me and deeply cares about me.
I soundlessly just hug her.
She is taken by surprise but still, she hugs me back.
We stay in each other's arms for some time.
"Hurry up, girl. Freshen up and join us at the dinner table to have dinner. Otherwise, the food would go cold.
I'll ask, Ayi, to wake Xiao Wei up."
She smiled at me.
The motherly love in her eyes brings about a lot of emotions in my heart.
I truly feel blessed at this point of time for my re-incarnation.
(Is it wrong to feel happy?)
(Is it crime towards the real Bai Chang?)
(Am I doing injustice to her?)
