Chapter 39 - Perfect Moments

In a beautiful garden, where two kids, one male, and one female can be seen playing with each other, they were running around the whole garden, throwing mud at each other and also chasing butterflies.

These kids were none other than the younger twins of Li Jie, looking at them from a distance was a couple, who were attended by various maids for all sorts of services, be it serving tea or serving snacks.

No matter who looks at the couple, the only thing that can come out of their mouth is that these two are a match made in heaven, from time to time the man would say something to his wife's ear, which only made her giggle more.

Listening to his wife's giggle the man couldn't control his urge and started kissing his wife passionately near her neck, then towards her cheeks, it was as if there was a fire burning in the man's stomach.

The man couldn't hold himself back, he wanted more, he wanted to do more but his wife calmed him down, making him realize about their servant's bashful appearance.

The man despite his uncontrollable desire was a well-mannered person, so he apologized and started looking at the scenery and his beautiful wife which made him feel, only if this can go on forever.

The man and the women were none other than Li Jie's mother and father, who were cherishing every moment they spent together with bliss.

Right at the gate reached a small boy, who suddenly stopped not wanting his parents to see anything different, he first took a deep breath and tried acting like he used to with his parents and siblings.

The forest trial changed Li Jie in many ways, he doesn't know how he changed or where he changed, so as not to make any mistakes and not to get his parents worried, he tried to act just how he has before the forest trial.

He pushed open the door, tried calming his throbbing heart, while his parents might think that he has always been with them, in reality, he wasn't with them, so it was hard for him to conceal his happiness of meeting his parents and siblings after a long time and that too after such a long period of time.

When he was in the forest, there were circumstances where he was certain of his death, so it was quite a big deal for Li Jie to meet his parents after all that he has experienced, and what he didn't know was how should he control his emotions.

The moment the entrance door of the garden opened, Li Jie's parents glanced at the one who opened the door, when they saw who it was, their face was full of joy and they only had one thought in their head, "Now this scenery has just become perfect".

It was when their gaze met that of Li Jie, Li Jie felt teary-eyed all of a sudden and couldn't hold back his tears that he was trying his best to hide, all of his act broke at the sight of his joyful parents.

Without thinking right and wrong, he just rushed to his mother's embrace while sobbing heavily, it was now that he felt after seeing his parents, that how much he truly missed them.

Words weren't enough to explain this situation, Li Jie's parents were startled at what just happened, then as if they could suddenly remember something they just lightly smiled, Li Jie's father just nodded towards his wife.

When Li Jie's mother picked him up and patted his head, "It's ok my baby boy, you don't have to worry, you are with your mama now, everything is ok, just hug me tightly and don't let me go" said Li Jie's mother while smiling, but if one could concentrate, they would notice a drop of tear at the corner of her eyes.

The twins seeing this scene were baffled, not knowing what just happened, seeing their brother who was weeping badly, they came towards their mother, no one knew when and why but the twins also started crying after seeing their elder brother sweeping heavily in his mother's embrace.

Li Jie's mother and father both chuckled and his mother motioned them to come to her when both the weeping siblings were picked up by an invisible hand and brought towards their mother's embrace.

Li Jie's father was intently looking at his family who were hugging each other, Li Jie's father had only one thought at that moment, "Only If time can be stopped now".

At the same time in a place, that smelled horrid and was filled with all kinds of garbage was a boy, who was nimbly moving, hiding his steps, and when he finally reached a hut which was made of all kinds of scrap that one could find in the garbage dump.

The boy who was walking nimbly towards this hut was none other than Dai Chen, he knocked three times at the door, to which the door opened showing a skinny girl with hair that was tidily combed and her clothes were clean regardless of their quality.

While her clothes had an uncountable number of patches, the way she wore her clothes made it as if she was wearing a princess's attire, her figure seemed proud and aloof, her disposition matched that of a ruler yet there was humbleness in her eyes, which were sunken yet tranquil, she had dark circles near her eyes, her skin was fair and her face only showed gentleness to everyone, she was one of Dai Chen's siblings who was the eldest after Dai Chen, she was the one responsible for cooking and most of the household chores.

"Welcome elder brother" smiled Fu Li warmly, hearing her made Dai Chen joyful," sister how was your day, did the young ones trouble you with your work", chuckled Dai Chen.

Fu Li just rolled her eyes upon hearing about her younger siblings, it was then that she noticed her elder brother carrying a bag, looking at which she smiled but there was concern also in her thoughts.

"Brother, I don't mean to be rude but are you sure, this kind sir you talk about, who helps you has any good intentions", asked Fu Li with concern and worry.

Dai Chen's face became gloomy upon hearing this, "Fu Li I have been employed as a helper in a blacksmith shop".

Fu Li was shocked upon hearing this because she knew how those of outside, treated those from the slums.

"Elder brother how did this happen and when did this happen", asked Fu Li with a shocked expression.

Dai Chen smiled and said, "of course it was young master Li Jie who got me the job and he considers me a friend".

Fu Li didn't know what more to say, she was thoroughly shocked, isn't it that those from the outside are disgusted by those from the slums, then "who is this young master Li Jie, is he a good person or does he have some kind of evil intention", she wondered if she could meet this person who has made her elder brother into a fanatic of his.

What kind of person is he?
