Chapter 373 - Meeting His Childhood Sweetheart After A Long Time!!



There were a number of paths leading to different areas and just in front was an old wooden chair that was full of scratches and marks.

The familiar yet unfamiliar scene left Shen Yi stunned.

Feeling unsure, he pointed to the are in front and asked "this...this place-" isn\'t this the XX hospital?\' that was what he wanted to say but the moment he turned his head to Xiao Li, he was stunned.

Dressed in plain yellow short frock with pink flowers, with her hair tied into two buns at either side, Xiao Li stood under the tree with her hands behind her back. There was a sweet smile on her face..

This familair scene once again made Shen Yi dumbfounded. Unable to react, Shen Yi stood their dumstruck when a thought struck his brain.

Unsure whether he was right or wrong, he looked at Xiao Li and asked hesitantly "You-are you...."

Afraid that he might have thought too much, Shen Yi did not dare to continue the rest of his words.

Knowing his thought, Xiao Li smiled faintly and said "long time no see....little girl?"

"You-you are Sunny?" Shen Yi called out in a hoarse voice

"hmm...I\'m sunny, sunny for sunshine" Xiao Li replied with a bright smile.

"...." there was a long silence before Shen Yi reacted.

Before Xiao Li could blink her eyes, a tall body appeared right in front of her enveloped her body into a tight embrace.

"Finally....I finally found you" Shen Yi said in a trembling voice "I missed you soo much"

Finally relieved, Xiao Li smiled and patted his back gently and answered with a smile "Me too, I missed you a lot"

Pulling away from her shoulder, Shen Yi held both of her shoulder and asked "Do you know how long I have searched for you?"

"Mmm...I know, Mu Jun told me everything" Xiao Li answered

"You...where were you all these years? Why couldn\'t I find you? And, isn\'t your name Sunny? Why did you change your name?"

"Sigh, It\'s a long story. Lets go take a seat, you have just recovered and its not good to stand under the sun for long" Xiao Li urged him.

To eager to hear the answer, Shen Yi pulled her to sit on the chair below the tree and urged her to tell him everything.

Inhaling a deep breath, Xiao Li began speaking "That day when you did not come to play as you had promised, i was worried so I went to your villa to look for you. But even after waiting for an whole day, I did not find you which got me worried. It was only when the cleaning aunty dropped by to clean the villa did I learn that you left the city along with your granny. I felt abadoned and my mind was not at the right condition so I fell ill and was admitted to the admitted to the hospital due to high fever. At the same time, the orphanage I stayed at suddenly met with an accident and the whole orphanage was burned into ashes. Only a few were left alive, and I was one of the luky person who escaped the dissaster since I wasn\'t even there that day. But the nurse who took care of me wasn\'t. She was burnt severely and her organs were injured. Knowing that she could not live long, the nurse was worried to leave me alone and hence arranged me to stay with her friend who stayed in another city. Not long after I left, the nurse passed away. my name was indeed Xiao Li, but my mother preferred to call me Sunny. But after my mom and aunt left, i no longer felt that name was meaningful so I changed my name back to Xiao Li"

Hugging his arms, Xiao Li looked up at Shen Yi and smiled faintly "So that\'s what happened"

"No wonder I was unable to find you. its because you changed your number" grabbing her palm, Shen Yi pinched her fingers lightly and spoke with guilt "Sorry, It\'s all my fault. I shouldn\'t have left without telling you"

Shaking her head, Xiao Li said "No, in fact I should thank you. If not because of you, I wouldn\'t have escaped the fire accident"

"No, I\'m the one to be blamed. In fact on that day grandma suddenly recieved news that my grandfather met with an accident and was admitted to the hospital. After that things turned chaotic and the company was left for my grandmother and mother to take care. As women, they were naturally looked down so Mother and Grandmother had to work hard to look after the company. Not long after grandpa passed away, which put mother and grandmother in a tough position.

It took them more than a year to finally stabilize the company and get it under their control. It was only then did I return to the city to find you but you were already gone. I tried to look for you but could not find you. Shortly after that, mother started to recieve threats from an anonymous person. Initially mother did not take it seriously but the other party slowly started to take action and even tried to harm mother several times. She was lucky the first few times but later on.... One day, out of blue mother suddenly fell ill. No matter which doctor we consulted, they couldn\'t identify what was wrong with her. Grandma thought that the other party would stop after mother ended up as such but they did not. They started to threaten grandmother and even tried to kidnap me. In the end It was Mu family who helped us. With Mu families protection, the other party did not dare to be presumptous. But I knew that wasn\'t the end. Infact the other party only retreated temperorily. Sooner or later they might appear again so I decided to Join with Mu Jun to grow strength. That was also my purpose for joining the underworld organization. It took five years to clear the mess. When I was finally free, I once again tried to look for you but then it was too late. I lost all your leads and did not know how to find you"

Speaking of this point, Shen Yi frowned slightly and turned to Xiao Li to asked "Xiao Li, that fire accident...do you know what happened? Why were all the information regarding that incident wiped out? Why could I not find any lead? What was soo mysterious about that incident?"

Hearing that question, Xiao Li\'s forehead creased as she frowned "That incident...I don\'t know what exactly happened. The fire outbroke out of blue and engulfed the whole building. Nobody know how the fire erupted nor from where. it was too sudden that people could not react fast. What was even more mysterious was when the fire was calmed down, we found many bodies that was completely burned. But those bodies did not belong to the orphanage. But before I left the city, I happened to hear that the orphanage land was purchased by a foreigner so those who wanted to investigate that incident could only put an end"

"Is it?" hearing that Shen Yi\'s interest grew further. he felt that this incident might not be as simple as he thought.
