Chapter 206 - Coming Back

Just as they were speaking, Ding Jiaying’s phone began to ring. Instinctively, she did not bother to check the caller and just answered the call. All her mind, body and soul was focused on her daughter and nothing else.

"Hello?"

"Honey, how are you?"

"What!" Ding Jiaying paused as her brain processed what she heard. It was then that she pulled the phone from her ears to check the caller. "Oh my!"

"Mum, what is it?" Li Xiu asked when she saw the puzzled look on her mother’s face.

"It is your father."

"Father! Whe..."

Ding Jiaying signaled for her daughter to keep quiet and she responded to her husband after taking in a deep breath.

"Li, where have you been? You have forgotten you have a wife and a daughter right?" Her voice held all the sarcasm and quarrel she felt. She did not bother to want to sweet tongue things and just went straight to the point.

"Ding Jiaying. You know it is not like that. I had to fix a lot of things here. It is not so easy to convince some inevestoirs and you yourself know that."

"Whatever. Where are you now?"

"I still haven’t traveled yet. I went to another city, Crestland. I hope to finalize my meeting with the CEO of Crestland hotel tomorrow and then I would be on the next flight back home. You know everything I do, I do for my family."

"Whatever you say. Li Xiu is here." She handed her daughter the phone and relaxed back in her seat. Although she wasn’t happy with him as her instincts was pricking her real bad, within her she was happy he called.

"Hello, dad. Good afternoon sir."

"Li Xiu my baby, how are you? How is the company?"

"Everything is fine dad. Everything is okay."

"I trust you. I know it would be in safe hands. Where is Li Jing? Put her on call let me speak with her."

"Umm, dad, Li Jing is not too strong."

"Oh my, what happened? Quick give it to her let me hear her voice." Li Xiu’s eyes widened. How was she going to do that when her sister was nowhere near home?

Ding Jiaying had seen the change in expression in Li Xiu’s face and knew that something definitely was wrong. "What is wrong?" She whispered to her daughter.

"Li Jing," Li Xiu mouthed back to her mum as her brain tried to concoct a sweet lie that he would believe.

"Tell him she went out," Ding Jiaying advised her daughter quickly.

"Umm, father, Li Jing went out."

"Went out? When she is not strong enough?" It was not looking plausible.

"She stepped out to get some drugs from the pharmacy, dad," she quickly rephrased her lie.

"Why didn’t you send one of the maids to go for her? Please be treating your sister well and help her."

"Li Jing is stubborn dad. I offered to even go for her but she refused me. She went on her own."

"It is okay. Leave her be then. My regards to her when she returns. I would be home next tomorrow."

"Okay dad. Bye."

The call went dead and Li Xiu averted her gaze to her mother with her mouth hung open.

"Mother," she managed to say after some time. "Did you see..."

"I know, dear. It is about time he finds out the truth because you and I know that we cannot force Li Jing to come and stay. He would have to know eventually."

"Okay mother. We just have to prepare for his wrath."

Just as Tang Zixin had promised, he sent the DNA test result to Mr Lin via his email and by the time Mr Lin read it, he was more than shocked, happy, confused, yet joyed that he has found his grand daughter.

This could only mean that there was a high chance probability of finding his daughter soon.

"Hello Tang Zixin. I cannot thank you enough for what you have done. Who would have thought. You continued on when I was almost losing hope."

"It is nothing sir. She was also confused about the whole thing but I know Li Jing, she would overcome and pull through."

"If she is all that you have said she is, then I have no doubt that she is a chip of the old block. Her mother was exactly as her."

If only Tang Zixin could see him then, he would have seen how Mr Lin radiated with enough joy, smile and brilliance.

It was like a new wave of fresh air and life was brought to his old life. He felt rejuvenated and a certain energy from nowhere seemed to have charged him up some more.

"No worries sir. If you like to do another DNA test, please you are more than welcome to, but I would be sending her samples for the test."

"It is no need. I want to see my grandchild first before any other thing else."

"I shall arrange for that meeting as soon as possible."

"Great, thank you so much for this joy you have given to me, Tang Zixin. It means so much. Finally I can see a light at the end of the tunnel. My jewel would soon be found. I can feel it."

"Anytime sir. Anytime. Just keep faith alive and you would be reunited with your family once again."

"Yes. I would thanks. Have a lovely day, Tang Zixin."

"You too sir. Do you want to fix a day for you to come and see her in Star City?" Tang Zixin asked. Left top him, he wanted Li Jing to meet with her grandfather now and enter the new year in a new environment.

A positive one away from her family and the negative atmosphere that the previous year had brought.

"Okay, not a bad idea. I would arrive tomorrow. I would clear my schedule. Nothing is more important than seeing my grandchild."

"Okay sir. Till tomorrow then."

"Yes, bye."
