Ying and Yichan's place.
"A trip?" ??
"Yes honey, a trip with our friends."
Fixing his tie, Ning smiled, "That sounds nice."
"So should I say yes?"
"Of course Yi, it's been a while since I took a real vacation."
Giving her a peck on her cheek, he grinned, "Cool, I'll let them know."
Passing him his wallet and car keys, she started reminding him of all the things he needed to do. "Don't forget to pick me up later after work because we need to go grocery shopping and—"
Cutting her off, he pouted his lips, "I don't wanna have lunch alone."
"Alright, I'll come over—"
"No, I'll come over for lunch in your office because I think the couch in your office is bigger that what I have so—"
Smacking his shoulder, she chuckled, "Will you stop already? I have a meeting with Mr Weilong today so you better behave."
"So is Valique is more important than your husband?"
"That piece of land will bring us money Yi and I love money." Cupping his cheeks, she added, "And of course I love my handsome husband too."
"Alright but Mr Weilong will be gone by lunch time right? " he asked.
Flicking his forehead, Ning chuckled, "Let's leave before you pounce on me like a hungry wolf."
…..
Jiang mansion.
Ziyi chuckled and helplessly shook her head, "Honey, just pick one up otherwise you'll get late for the meeting."
Taking out a dark blue and maroon colored suit, Weilonh asked, "Which one do you think will look better?" Without waiting for her reply, he tossed the maroon one away and added, "I heard that her favourite color is blue."
Hugging him from behind, she sighed, "I wish I could meet her too."
Turning towards her, he kissed her forehead. "May be one day we both will meet her together."
"Do you think she will ever forgive us if she finds out tye truth?" She asked.
"Well, I can see that she has my fathers temper so I am afraid that she might not but her husband is a very sensible man so may be she will." Pulling away, he sighed, "I really don't know honey, I know that I shouldn't see her but I can't take it anymore. Our daughter is right there in front of us but we still can't give her all the love that she deserves."
Burying her head on his chest, she sighed, "I also feel very bad when I think about it."
"Look at the two of being all romantic with the door open," Walking towards his parents, Yang Cheng said, "My parents are unbelievable."
Pulling away, Weilong asked, "And what are you doing here early in the morning?"
Cheng chuckled and gasped, "I am very sorry to intrude your private romantic time dad but Hermit told me that you are going out for a meeting in a couple of hours so—"
Cutting him off, Weilong explained, "Hmm, I am going for a meeting with the CEO of Yang Corporation."
"Ah I see, I can attend it for you because I know you are taking break so you can spend some time with mom."
"No it's alright, I want to attend this one personally."
Cheng nodded his head and said, "Okay then, I am leaving for office."
Stopping midway, he turned towards his parents and asked, "Are you both sure that you aren't hiding anything from me? Or there is nothing you both want to confess?"
"Absolutely not honey, why would we hide anything from you?" Ziyi asked.
Cheng smiled and nodded his head, "Alright, I'll take my leave then."
After he left, Ziyi murmured, "Why do I feel like Cheng knows something?"
"What did you say honey?"
"Wei, I think Cheng knows about Ning and—"
Cutting her off, he frowned, "What? No he doesn't. How can he know about something that we have never talked about in front of him?"
"But—"
"Stop overthinking and don't stress yourself, no one knows what happened twenty-seven years ago apart from a handful of people. There is no way Cheng can know anything."
Ziyi sighed and nodded her head.
…..
Outside Jiang mansion
"So he is going to meet her." Gritting his teeth, Grandpa Jiang tightened his grip around the mug. "I always knew that your father is a very sly man just like your other grandpa."
Cheng chuckled and helplessly shook his head, "Hey grandpa don't say that, grandpa Bojin is so cool."
"Ahh what do you know kid? I know how exactly Yang Bojin is and stop taking his side while you are still standing on my ground." Grandpa Jiang snapped.
Raising both his hands in the air, Cheng chuckled, "Alright, I rest my case."
"Do you know that your father hired men to prevent me from seeing your sister? Can you imagine how badly he wants me not to see her?"
Shrugging his shoulders, Cheng said, "Well, from what you have told me, I think it's the best that all of us stay away from her."
"Did you tell them that I told you?" Without waiting for his reply, Grandpa Jiang added, "Because if they come to know that you also know because I told you, I am so dead."
"They don't know and I'll make sure that they never find out about this," When grandpa Jiang told Cheng about his twin sister Yang Ning who was just a minute younger to him, he was shocked and also very hurt over the fact that his parents had kept such a huge think away from him. But when grandpa Jiang told him the entire truth and the reason behind it, he felt very complicated. He had no idea whether he should judge his parents or feel bad for them.
After learning the entire truth, he also confronted Grandpa Yang who welcomed him with open arms.
It had been four years since he had learned the truth and he had been watching over Ning since then. Though he had no idea whether he could ever be the responsible big brother that he was supposed to, he still made sure that she always stayed safe and sound.
