Chapter 77: The Hair strand
Chapter 77: The Hair strand
Madam Wen's POV
While handing the packet to Feng Jing, my hands were shaking. It's not that I am doing this on my own wish.
While accepting the packet, I could notice the mocking smile on his face. Seeing the smile, my heart felt like it was stabbed by a hundred needles.
"Ah, thank you Aunt Wen," he said, accepting the packet.
Seeing this, I didn't have the heart to remain there and so, after greeting him again, I went away.
The Hair Strand.
I still remember the call when I left the hospital in the evening. I was getting into the car when I received the call from Brother Shen.
He said, "Shuang, We need a hair strand of Wang Yu Yan for the test." In his voice I could feel the hesitation.
Holding back my thoughts, I answered, "Yes, Brother Shen. I will arrange it" and disconnected the call.
"Take me to Wen Mei's residence," I told the driver.
With my eyes looking out of the window, my mind was filled with all kinds of thought about Wang Yu Yan and her past.
Why was she reduced to the state where she had to live in the countryside?
Why did she have to live in hiding, without anyone to take care of her?
Did she really belong to the Wang Family, as Feng Jing told?
Did she really kill someone?
At the thought of her killing someone, I shrugged. It was impossible to imagine anyone who could save lives, can she take them too.
"We have reached Madam"
I was startled at the voice of the driver. But calming myself, I got outside of the car.
In front of Wen Mei's door, I still was hesitant but I had to do it, or else, if anyone else did, Wang Yu Yan will be notified for sure.
Gathering my courage, I rang the doorbell. There was no response until five minutes.
Is she asleep?
I made a call to Wen Mei to confirm this. And yes, she was sleeping.
You ask how I know this?
She, who is stuck to the mobile all the time, if she does not accept your call for ten minutes straight, it is obvious she is sleeping.
Finally, she opened the door, "Where are you sleeping?" I asked her.
And her answer was no. Of course it will be no, or she would be nagged by me.
I entered the house, it was as clean as always. And I am pretty sure that all the work is done by Wang Yu Yan, because this brat here is too lazy to do anything.
I sighed.
"Why are you here?" she asked me.
Why am I here?
I wish I wasn't there to do something else, but to meet my daughter. I wish that I wasn't there to find Wang Yu Yan's hair strand for that petty DNA test.
And I wish I didn't had to lie to Mei.
"Why can't I be at my daughter's house?" I said answering her question by asking another question.
But how will I find Wang Yu Yan's hair? That was the main question then.
An idea popped into my mind.
I walked towards Wen Mei's room, and when she asked why, I told her that I was there to see how she was doing.
She said she was fine, and told me to go to Wang Yu Yan's room first as she was busy nowadays.
Of course, she was busy taking care of those who don't believe her.
I agreed to this, which was unusual for me, and so I could see a surprised look on Wen Mei's face.
Now that she went inside, I had time to find the hair strand.
I entered Wang Yu Yan's room. It was clean as always, which was opposite of Wen Mei who was cleaning her room now.
Then, I searched for Wang Yu Yan's comb where I would find the hair strand easily.
And I was right, because luckily I found it there. Taking the hairstand, I dropped it in a transparent packet and kept it inside my purse.
That time I was feeling like I was a thief who stole something. And I had a guilty feeling too.
Finally, I completed my work and returned to the hall, where Wen Mei was ready with her cleaned room.
I scanned her room, which can now be considered clean.
Satisfied with the result, I asked her if she needed something and her answer was the same, 'No'.
I chatted with Mei for some time and then left the house along with the hair strand.
..
[PRESENT]
Madam Wen got into the car, as it was pretty late, she asked her driver to go straight to the Wen Mansion.
With a heavy heart and gloomy mood, Madam Wen entered the Mansion.
Wen Peng who was sitting in the hall, looking through some documents, on seeing his wife said, "Shaung, you are here."
Madam nodded giving a wry smile and sat beside Wen Peng on the sofa.
"How is Old Master Feng?" asked Wen Peng.
"He is fine" answered Madam Wen nodding.
Eventually, Madam Wen's head landed on Wen Peng's shoulder. Noticing this, Wen Peng smiled.
"Tired?" asked Wen Peng as he lowered his shoulder so as to make Madam Wen more comfortable.
Instead of answering, Madam Wen snuggled in the crook of Wen Peng's neck.
"Honey" Madam Wen called out to Wen Peng.
"Hmm?" said Wen Peng.
"Do you know about Yu Yan's family?" asked Madam Wen, startling Wen Peng.
"What?" asked Wen Peng as he lowered his head to face Madam Wen who was also looking at him.
"I mean did anything happen?" asked Wen Peng.
Sitting straight, Madam Wen said, "N-No, nothing happened. I was just asking randomly."
Noticing his wife's hesitation, Wen Peng said, "Did she not tell us about her family?"
"S-She did, but I was wondering why did she not tell us their names?" said Madam Wen.
"She must have some reasons," answered Wen Peng, looking into Madam Wen's eyes trying to find out something.
"But here surname Wang-" Madam Wen was cut off by Wen Peng who said, "She will tell us when she wants, let's take it slowly. Furthermore I believe that when the time comes, she will open up to us."
"Yes" said Madam Wen as she decided not to take things further.
"Then I am going upstairs." she said as she got up from the sofa and proceeded upstairs.
Looking at her disappearing back, Wen Peng sighed, then taking his phone he made a call.
When the call was connected, he said, "Shaung asked some unusual questions today."
..
"Is she a doctor?" Feng Jing asked curiously.
But Mr. Cold and indifferent Li Wei was in Deja Vu. He was sitting and staring at the hospital entrance.
"Is she sick because of you?", Feng Jing seemed to have concluded something.
TIME TICKED AND TICKED
"Li Wei! It's been half an hour. Like for real. There are plenty of girls who are waiting for you and here you are waiting for a random girl in front of the hospital entrance. What kind of magic has she done on you?"
Feng Jing was literally annoyed.
Li Wei was still in Deja Vu.
After 15 more minutes, his mouth finally opened.
"Your Grandfather is sick, right? Let's go and see him."
Feng Jing felt like crying.
This god damn man waited for 45 minutes and now he wants to go in. Ha!
Both entered the hospital and headed straight to Old Master Feng's ward.
Li Wei suddenly stopped, in the long corridor when he spotted a familiar figure emerging from a ward.
Wearing a white hospital coat and simple clothes, the woman's hair was in a ponytail. She was wearing black rimmed glasses, which added a tinge of professionalism.
She exhibited a young and fresh vibe. Also her snow white skin made her look more delicate.
"Wang Yu Yan" he murmured.
He was hoping hard to bump into her. And he didn't know why he was hoping so.
"Doctor Su." said Feng Jing, making Li Wei's eyebrow raise in suspicion.
Making Li Wei come back to his senses, Feng Jing greeted Wang Yu Yan as she stood in front of them.
Wang Yu Yan was utterly shocked to see him here. Her eyes were wide open.
'Of all the people, did my cousin have to befriend this perverted womanizer!'
Wang Yu Yan nearly rolled her eyes in frustration.
Clearing her throat, she said, "Young Master Feng" calming herself down and putting on a polite smile.
"From my thinking, you are here to check on my grandfather" said Feng Jing with a smirk.
"Ah, yes. I did a routine checkup on Old Master Feng. He is all healthy." commented Wang Yu Yan.
Her eyes lingered on the man beside him. Sneaking a glance at him, felt like she was a teenage girl admiring her crush.
"I see. That's good to know" answered Feng Jing.
As for Li Wei, he stood there frozen, confused how to act in front of her.
' But why the hell are they talking so much?'
He thought, which frustrated him.
Wang Yu Yan nodded and sneaked a glance again at Li Wei, she said, "Excuse me" as she walked past the two men with hurried steps.
Li Wei wanted to say something but held himself back.
He felt like he had no words to say to her.
Seeing her leaving, Li Wei felt like he had become lonely again.
"Let's go" said Feng Jing as he noticed Li Wei's indifferent behaviour.
"Hmm" said Li Wei as he sighed.
