Unexpected Encounter: They Were Meant To Be Together

Chapter 863 - Guang's tantrums

After sometime, he took out his phone and called Ashton to give him a few updates about the incident.

"Is Elsa okay?"

"She is still a but traumatized," Ashton answered.

"She had such a rough day so it's understandable. Take a couple of days off and take care of her, I'll handle everything till then," he suggested.

"Thanks man, I wanted to tell you this but I thought it will be exhausting for you."

"Of course it will be exhausting for me but Elsa needs you right now and that is more important." Before Ashton could say anything, yinhai added, "And you also need to handle Guang."

Scrunching his brows, Ashton inquired, "What happened to him?"

"He found out what happened today and is throwing tantrums," he answered.

Helplessly shaking his head, Ashton sighed, "His tantrums are bad."

"It's worse than the tantrums Becca throws at me when she is mad. Look, last time I had a hard time coaxing him so you need to do it this time."

"Alright, but what do I even tell him? Should I apologize or bring him some chocolates?"

Shrugging his shoulders, Yinhai answered, "I don't know, do whatever you feel is right. It's Guang we are talking about, you know him well."

"Okay, I will think of something."

"Listen, he seems quite hurt this time so it might not be very easy."

Ashton sighed and nodded his head. "I'll take care of it."

"You seem tired."

"Yeah, it was a very tough day," Yinhai answered.

Sitting beside him, Ming gently c.a.r.e.s.sed his head. "Why don't you go inside and take some proper rest."

Placing his head on l.a.p, he sighed, "Let me stay like this for some time."

"I used to tell your father the same thing so I am telling you the same, work is important but so is your health. You should learn how to balance your work and personal life. You kids are still young, you are supposed to enjoy your youth but also keep your careers stable. But all I see our kids doing is working hard without enjoying their youth," Ming stated.

Keeping quiet for some time, Yinhai explained, "When dad handed over the seat to me, the business was already at its peak. I thought all I had to do was maintain whatever dad had left behind but it wasn't that simple and I didn't want to disappoint dad or anyone." Taking a deep breath, he sighed, "So I kept working hard and I still do. I mean, that is the right thing to do, right?"

Gently c.a.r.e.s.sing his head, Ming nodded her head. "Yes, working hard is always good. When you work hard you always get good results but only if you do it the right way. Of course we have expectations from you kids but we don't want you all to exhaust yourself and miss out on things which will help you cherish your youth."

"You are right aunt Ming, I think I need to chill and not think about this right now."

"Yes, you should go inside and take some rest," she suggested to which he nodded his head in agreement.

"I will go crash in Yushen's room, haven't seen him for a couple of days anyway."

After Yinhai left, Ming was about to walk towards the kitchen when Singtan approached her. "I was waiting for you."

"I was talking to Yinhai." Walking towards the kitchen, she added, "you should go inside, I'll be there in a second."

"Yinhai? Is everything okay?" When Ming nodded her head, he inquired, "Was it some serious talk?"

"Not really. I was just telling the kid what I used to tell you and my brother."

Walking towards her, he exclaimed, "You tell me many things, which one are we talking about here."

"I told him not to be so hard on himself." Wrapping her hands around his waist, she sighed, "Our kids are not enjoying life properly, don't you think the same?"

"Kids are big enough to figure out what is best for them, you don't have to worry about them. And who said they are not enjoying themselves? They already have girlfriends and boyfriends, a few are even married. Trust me honey, no one is enjoying as much as they are."

....

Andrew and Linyang's place.

Tossing and turning on the bed, Linyang was having a very hard time catching some sleep after the shivering incident. She still couldn't figure out the meaning behind the note that Pulos had left on the bonnet of her car.

Though Andrew had assured her nothing would go wrong and everything was under control, she still couldn't convince herself to calm down and not think about it.

After knowing about the past Andrew shared with Pulos, how could she be okay with it?

Sitting up straight, she grabbed a bottle of water from the side table. After taking a few sips, she placed it back before getting down from the bed.

…..

Study room.

"I'll go," Andrew declared.

"Are you sure about this? What if it's a plan?" Michael inquired. He sounded very concerned.

Looking outside the window with the phone pressed against his right ear, Andrew nodded his head. "I am sure."

Pausing for a while, he added, "I don't think this is a plan, he is probably doing this behind Lawrence's back."

"You can't go with your instincts here Andrew, it's very risky. At this moment, we don't even know where they are hiding." Without waiting for his reply, Michael added, "Don't forget that they are after everyone's life, we can't take any risk."

"I understand the seriousness of this matter Mic and I also know you are worried about me but we can't just sit back and live a life fearing what they will do next. We need to do something and find out what is exactly going on and what is Lawrence planning. Right now, the only person who can help us out his Pulos. We need to take this risk," Andrew explained.
