Chapter 239 - Turn of happiness into disappointment

Lifen has gone to visit the family with whom she has spent ten  years of her life. The family that has given her the love she has craved for in her childhood.

She was just a ten years old girl when she has lost both of her parents in that car accident. She was left with her grandfather alone. 

Though her grandfather has tried his level best to give her the affection of both her mother and father but still it wasn't complete for her.

She has felt her grandfather's efforts after her so she never complained about anything. She always craved for the parental love she has lost. She pretended to be all strong in front of him but the scaring lonliness was really too much for such a young girl.

After her grandfather,  Li Liaoyuan left for work she would become all lonely. Although there were maids around her but still they couldn't fill the lonliness inside her heart.

At that time she has met Wu family after getting befriended with Yifeng. It was a complete fated encounter as in no ways, it was possible for the people living in two different world of the same soceity could meet that easily.

They have always treated as one of them, never taking her for the big title she own. Especially the love that Mother Wu has given her was something that can't be compared in the world. 

She has always cared for her as her own daughter which she never had. She has given her all the love and care for which she has always craved for.

Even after Yifeng got missing, she was never been ignored. 

When Lifen reached the Yangzhi street, she felt like the place has not been a bit changed in the last two years. It was still busy and bustling with the students of the University.

There was an atmosphere of liveliness around that can make anyone feel easy and comfortable.  

Lifen has brought her black Bentley with her and was accompanied by the shadow bodyguards around.

She doesn't wanted to bring her car too but as per her grandfather's arrangements,  she has to take her security as her first priority. 

She parked her car at a little distance from the coffee-shop,  'Impresso-Expresso' to not attract much attention, but she has taken popularity of the car too lightly.  

The moment the car got parked in the neighborhood,  it instantly attracted the attention of the onlookers. The young lads has always got special interest in cars and gadgets, so such a high end car couldn't go unnoticed by them.

Lifen merely ignored the stares as she took her steps towards the the cafe. She can see that the cafe got much more livilier and busy than the two years back. Even it has got a renovation with the mordern designs complimenting the youths visiting the place.

She could see a delivery truck parked at the side which were being stuffed with the batch of deliveries that would be sent out.

Seeing the much better condition of the cafe, Lifen felt very satisfied and contented. She thought it was all because of Yifeng. 

His return must have given hope and encouragement to make the cafe so much better than before. It could be told with a look that the cafe must be earning handsomely now.

Lifen was very happy from inside as she took her steps towards the cafe. When she stepped inside the first thing that she noticed was the aged but the beautiful face of Mother Wu who was busy with delegating the works to the different staffs while clearly maintaining the cashier department. 

She turned to look around, wanted to find the familiar figure which she has been missing for more than three years now. But she couldn't spot him inside the cafe.

'He might have gone to attend some work outside ', she thought as she reverted her gaze back to the aged beauty.

Mother Wu seemed to have not noticed her presence.  Sensing this Lifen p.u.s.s.y-footedly walked behind the cashier department shushing the staffs and workers who has come to ask her requirements and thought her as one of the customers.

When Lifen reached behind her mother. She lovingly wrapped her arms loosely around her neck and got  clung onto her, "Mumma, I really missed you a lot".

Hearing that familiar sweet voice again, Mother Wu was taken aback. Her eyes got instantly filled with the tears of love  and longingness. 

She gently placed her hands on Lifen's soft hands, trying to confirm the presence of her sweet daughter who has left two years back without even saying a goodbye.

The staffs were too taken aback when this woman whom they have considered a customer has called their Boss as her mother. 

Obviously one of them had seen her park the Bentley before and thought of her to be a rich customer but now suddenly she has called this old lady as her mother.

Was she the same daughter about whom their boss always talk about?

Confirming her presence around her again,  Mother Wu turned to look at her daughter but her eyes were holding fake anger. 

"You really know to come back now. And today is the day when you remembered that you have a mother who is still waiting for your calls", Mother Wu said hoarsely as she swatted away the arms of Lifen away.

"So are you going to punish your daughter now? I know I have really made you wait long and your daughter is really sorry for that but won't you forgive me now?", she asked with a pout expression.

Mother Wu's anger was just a facade to hide the tears and weak emotions she was holding in her heart. She has never been angry at her at the first place.

Hearing her say 'sorry' , she hurriedly hugged her to make her understand that she wasn't mad at her any more. 

Then she happily introduced her to the staffs of her cafe. Giving some more orders to her staffs, Mother Wu then took Lifen to a table to have a hearty talk with her.

Lifen was already very much pleased to see such good condition of cafe. She said, "Mumma! the shop seems to run smoothly now. It must be because of Brother Yifeng hardwork and capabilities that has given the shop such a great environment of liveliness".

Mother Wu's expression changed suddenly turning her happiness into disappointment.
