CHAPTER 417 – Attack On Grandpa Lin

"I had already promised never to make her cry again or hurt in any way because of me. Above all, I would love Li Jing more than life itself as she is my world. You can be rest a.s.sured, she and I are one and if I cannot hurt myself, I cannot hurt her. I love her with all my heart, Tang Zixin and I would do anything for her, even if it means me risking and sacrificing my life for her."

Hearing the men say these things, Li Jing felt so happy within her. She was so full of joy that she could explode any minute from then.

"Great then. I know you are a man of dignity and integrity and I trust that you would keep your word as you have said. Li Jing, I feel more relieved now, knowing you are in perfect hands. You are lucky, very lucky to have him as he is lucky to have you."

She did not even know the right words to use to answer him.

All she could do was smile and nod her head continuously. Seeing how full of joy she was, Ye Cheng smiled at her, before reaching for her hand and pressing on her palm. Swiftly, she turned her head to look at him, only to find him smiling at her.

"Hey, I love you and it's going to be alright, okay?"

"Yeah, I love you too."

"Congrats, Li Jing."

"Thanks for everything that you have done."

Just like that, things went well for Li Jing. Apparently, the shame that Ding Jiaying had after Li Jing left was one that had them sulk up in their house.

After she left, the security men did their job to the best of their knowledge and ability, s.h.i.+fting the shaft from the G.o.d ones.

At the end of the day, those present there could see that it was all planned and that Ding Jiaying was indeed a liar.

While this part of her life was going on smoothly, Li Jing did not fail to actually still keep on searching for her mother and of truth each time she got a positive response from her investigator, it always leads to a dead end.

A part of her thought that it was her aunties still trying to thwart her plans but then, knowing how much of their lives were in her control, she thought less about it and just kept hope.

Regardless of what her outcome was, she still kept away from her grandfather, reason being that he had the nerves to make Kim Fan come over to their city and win her heart back.

How in heaven's name was she going to forgive him, Li Jing did not understand. Anytime she thought about him, she felt angry but then a part of her still yearned after him.

After all, he was her grandfather anyway and she told him that she would not be like her mother that ran. She would stick to him and stay with him, irrespective.

'Sigh! Sometimes saying some words should actually be carefully thought of before being said. It isn't like I am angry at him for what he did…' Li Jing stopped talking in her mind and let out an exasperated sigh…

"Wait a minute… Says who I am not angry at him? But then again, it is as it is. He really did hurt me. He ignored me and went to choose for me, something that I clearly did not want or was it because I wasn't firm enough in my decisions? No."

She stood up from her bed and went to sit down in front of her mirror then she picked up a comb to brush her hair.

"I did not want him to feel like I was leaving him but I guess even that was already something wrong. My happiness comes first before any other thing. The bible said love your neighbour as yourself not more than myself. So I should put my happiness first."

Her face turned stern instantly when she finally came to the realization of the word she said.

"If all things being equal, then I, well I am not mother though and although I know he was hurt by what she did, doesn't mean I should atone with my own life. Li Jing, you did not do anything wrong. You stood up for the right thing and you fought for your happiness lest grandpa wouldn't have ever taken you seriously."

Her chest rose and fell with each deep breath she took. After some seconds, her mind became clearer and she felt more at peace with herself.

"Even though what he did was wrong, I cannot neglect the only family I have aside from my husband. I guess calling and checking up on him wouldn't be a bad idea."

She stood up, took a little work over to her bedside table and picked up her phone then searched his number up and placed a call.

Ring! Ring!

She waited some seconds but did not get any response from the other end of the call till it dropped.

"Hmm? Where is grandpa? Or is he angry at me too? Let me try again and see."

Ring! Ring!

This time around, it did not take so long before the call was answered. "h.e.l.lo," Li Jing quickly said. "Grandpa. How are you?"

Something about him not answering his call was seeming suspicious. Her grandfather was one who rarely missed his calls especially with the numerous gadgets he had. So when he failed to pick the first time, she brushed it off but when the delay occurred again the second, her heart wondered why.

"h.e.l.lo."

Li Jing's brows creased at the unfamiliar voice. That wasn't her grandfather's voice so who was answering the call?

"h.e.l.lo?" her raspy voice resounded in her ears, making her cringed at the sound. Quickly she cleared her throat and spoke again. "h.e.l.lo, where is my grandfather, please? Put him online."

"I am afraid Miss, but Mr Lin is indisposed at the moment and has been attacked."
