Chapter 56 - Get Well Soon

Name:Trial Of Love Author:_AngelGrace_
'I must be really high in meds right now, that I'm seeing things. What the h*ck is Chairman Yun and Little Yan doing here at this late hour? Luckily, my mom decided not to stay for the night and went to attend a party with Uncle or else... *sigh*'

Elizabeth was in a daze as she sat on her bed. It wasn't even visiting hours anymore yet standing in front of her was Little Yan and Yun Shen. She could barely open her mouth and watch as the little girl walked towards her and handed her a piece of paper.

She faced at the little girl and grab the piece of paper. "Is this for me?"

The little girl nodded and smiled.

It was a simple picture of her and the little girl playing together in a meadow filled with beautiful flowers. On the bottom part was a simple message.

{Get well soon.}

"Little Yan, thank you. Your present has made Auntie feel much better."

The little girl hopped on the bed as she gave her Auntie Li Zi a hug.

The room was completely silent again, making the situation even more awkward.

Elizabeth looked at the little girl seated beside her. "Little Yan, would you like to eat some fruits?"

Little Yan nodded.

As she was about to get up, she noticed the man suddenly stood up from his seat. She watched as the man went over to the table and grab an orange.

Yun Shen then walked closer to them and handed the orange. "Here."

"Thank you, Chairman Yun, but I could've…"

She couldn't even finish what she was about to say when the man started peeling the orange in front of her. She couldn't help it but be fl.u.s.tered of the man's gentle manner toward her all of a sudden.

Chairman Yun, what the h*ck are you doing? I hurt my foot, not my hands, I can do it you know...'

He handed the peeled orange to the little girl as she tried to feed one piece at a time into Li Zi's mouth.

The situation completely bewildered Elizabeth. She didn't know what to do, seeing the father and daughter was happily taking care of her. The fact she was the person who does not really like to be pampered by others because of her family. They treat her like a baby all of a sudden. She was screaming on the inside wishing for them to stop.

She then took a piece of orange from the little girl's hand and feed it to her.

In the man's eyes, they were like mother and daughter trying to take care of each other. His inside suddenly tightened seeing the picturesque image of them.

Then the little girl got down from the bed and went to get her bag, she then went back up the bed as she got her tablet out. She started writing something on the tablet.

{Auntie Li Zi, how did you cut your foot?}

Elizabeth gathered her thoughts for a moment on how she should explain the event to the little girl, she simply can say someone tries to hurt her. "Auntie was not careful in her step and did not see that something was on the ground."

{Auntie Li Zi, when will you visit me again?}

"Once Auntie is better and Auntie is not busy at work, she'll try to come and play with you again."

The little girl's question kept getting challenging as time went by. She was suddenly feeling helpless and did not know what to do.

{Auntie Li Zi, promise me you'll visit me during the summer?}

She did not notice it was already summer break, she has totally forgotten how quickly the time has gone by. "I will, if I ain't too busy. I promise I'll take you somewhere very fun."

Elizabeth then notices the little girl was rubbing her eyes. The little girl yawned as she continuously rubbed her sleepy eyes. She looked at the man and said, "Chairman Yun, I think Little Yan is tired."

"Little Yan, let's go home then..." Yun Shen went closer to them but as he was about to get the little girl, she grabbed hold of the woman's arms.

"No!"

"Little Yan, it's already late. You need to sleep," she looked at the little girl and tried to explain..

"No!" she cried.

Elizabeth heavily sighed seeing how things ended up, she then wraps the little girl with her blanket and said, "How about I sing you a song?"

The little girl nodded her head as she chucks herself closer to the woman.

Sun has gone down and the star are shining

Close your eyes and dream of me beside you

Don't be scared I'll be here beside you

No matter what it takes

I'll be by your side...

She started singing the song she sang for the little girl last time.

Yun Shen was stun as he heard the woman soft angelic voice for the first time. It was so gentle and pleasing to the ears. He watches from a distance as the little girl soon drifted off to sleep whilst listening to the woman's voice. It was indeed magic...

Yun Shen put his hand on his chest as he clenched it.

'What's wrong with me? Why is my chest so tight right now? Her voice is just... Hmm...'

Yun Shen averted his gaze from the woman as he stood up from his seat and looked out the window and stared at the night sky.

...

Moments later, Elizabeth called for the man's attention. "Chairman Yun, I think you can take her home now. She fast asleep already."

Yun Shen turned around to face the woman and saw the little one was indeed asleep. He quietly moved forward towards them as he gently lifted the little girl in his arms. "Thank you..."

"Your welcome Chairman Yun, you and Little Yan take care on your way home." She smiled and greeted them.

Their faces were so close to each other since the man was trying to lift the little girl up.

Elizabeth turned her head away to hide her flushed face. Whilst Yun Shen quickly grab the little girl in his arms.

"Then Miss Li Zi, get some rest and I'm sorry to have trouble you."

"Chairman Yun, it's fine... Take care..."

Both of them didn't bother and look at each other as the man stepped out of the room leaving the woman all fl.u.s.tered.
