Chapter 13 - Li Xue, is that really you?

This city has robbed all the hopes and faith from her heart, left her in ruins in a way that she doesn't even value her own life.

But again God can never be cruel to his children. When everything was collapsing around her, a beautiful lively light shone over her that brought her back to life, guiding her to the right path of her life. It was none other than her daughter. The only light that motivated her to live this life once again with a new spirit and different motive.

She has always strived harder to provide her daughter a beautiful life but her return to this city again hit her harder. The dark memories of her past life which have always remained with her in the form of nightmares came flooding in front of her eyes. But before she could even fight those, this city gifted her another fear.

The strength which she has gathered within herself to fight was all lost just in a blink of her eye. Her angel that was the reason for which she has returned to this city again went missing.

She looked around to find her little box of her joy and hope, to hug her till her heart content. But overwhelmed by the helplessness in failing to locate her daughter, an unknown fear started to haunt her. Just a thought of her getting hurt was giving her an excruciating pain in her hair.

She looked around but every second of failure was giving her the feeling of agonizing long suffering. She didn't know where to go, or where to find her?

The only feeling that was prominent to her was pain and helplessness.

But suddenly her eyes caught a glimpse of her lighthouse, but the next moment it was nowhere to be found. Her heart beat got faster, jumping with the hope of joy but in the next moment felt the disappointment.

She walked in the direction where she has got the glimpse, praying her God to not be so cruel to her again.

And then finally, she found her. Just a sight of her adorable cute face was enough to pump back life to her lifeless soul. Without thinking much about anything, she called out loudly, "Li Wei!"

In the next moment she rushed to grab her like, if she did not hurried her movements to reach her then in the moment she would disappear in the thin air.

She grabbed her desperately, hugging her close to her heart, making herself believe that everything was fine now. "Mama, it's fine. Don't be scared now. Li Wei has found you. You aren't lost anymore."

The little girl said assuring her mother, gently patting her back to relieve her.

"You, little devil! You scared me to death. I have asked you to sit here and wait for me, then where have you gone. Don't you know that we have to care for ourselves and also for the people that are around us", she reprimanded in a low tone, pinching her daughter's cheeks lightly.

"But Mama, I do care about you. That's why I found you this fast. I knew you would be scared not finding me at the place you asked me to be", the little girl said, placing a kiss on her mother's cheeks. This was the way she could calm her mother down. "I am sorry, Mama. I do not want to scare you"

Li Xue got so immersed in her own emotions that she didn't notice the man who was standing in front of her and now looking at her in disbelief. His eyes still weren't able to believe what he was looking in front of him. The woman whose memories were still fresh in his memories was now standing just in front of his eyes.

And she wasn't alone. She has someone by her side.

"But where did you go? You would have waited for me to return if you wanted to go somewhere. I would have taken you. Where did you go?" she asked her daughter, adjusting the strands of hair that had come over her face.

"Mama, I was sitting here as you have asked for but then I saw tall – careless uncle drop his handkerchief there", Li Wei pointed out her fingers towards the place where she has seen him dropping his handkerchief, then continued "And looking at that I thought to return it back to him. Because you have asked me before to always help others. So I ran after him and lost my way back."

"What tall – careless uncle? Baby, you shouldn't name anyone like that. It's bad manners", Li Xue said to her daughter.

"He is tall with long legs, that made me run after him. And also careless to drop his handkerchief without caring. So I called him tall- careless uncle. Let me introduce you to him. He has brought me back here after I lost my way", the little girl said as she turned around to introduce her mother to the man she had helped.

Li Xue's eyes followed her daughter's movement, until her eyes fell on the man who was staring at her with wide eyes that held so many questions and disbelief in it.

Her eyes also held a shock when she recognized the person in front of her. There was no way she could forget him. She had expected to meet him but never thought that it would be this soon.

Time felt like it was stopping around them as their eyes met with each other. But it didn't last for long. Li Xue was brought back when she felt her daughter soft hands over hers, "Mama, this is the tall – careless uncle I was talking about"

She nodded to her daughter with a smile and then lifted her face up to look at the man. Cornering all her memories with him, she said in an indifferent tone that drew a line of strangers between then, "Thank You for looking after my daughter."

Hearing her indifferent tone directed to himself like that, the man was also snapped back to the reality, "Li Xue! Is that really you? I never thought that we would meet again. How have you been?"? There was something that left unsaid in his eyes as he looked at her and then his gaze trailed down at the little girl.
