The Undefined Love Chapter 98 - Did He Remember Her?

"I will wait for reply but do reply honestly. I want to hear the truth, nothing else", Deming said staring keenly the changing expressions on Jie's face.

Jie's face turned pale instantly, it was no more beautiful. Her eyes stated that she was scared that her worst secret came out. She carefully moved her from the table to her lap and nervously clenched her hand so hard that her fingernails dug deep into her palms, making some drops of blood oozing out.

She kept her gaze down avoiding the sharp glare of Deming, who seems quite upset now. Her mind was playing one question again and again, 'How did he knew about this? She kept all the facts hidden so well'.

Deming seemed to guess what's going deep into her mind, so he said gently, "I know, what you are thinking. It's true that you hid everything too well but your body said it all. We came to know about it during your comatose period. Do you even know, your life was at risk because of that. Now tell me the reason behind becoming a drug addict".

Some moments pa.s.sed like that, while Deming was still waiting for her response, which still didn't came to his ears.

He was again about to say something to her but someone gently knocked at the door, 'Knock Knock'.

Deming moved his gaze at the sliding door which opened slowly and next came in the waiter whom he has asked to look after Lifen's movement.

Instantly he knew that it was the time he can meet her face to face. But he was in the mid of his conversation with Jie. At this moment he didn't gave any second thought and stood up in a breakneck speed, "Think properly...I have a client to attend. Will be back soon". Jie can wait but there is something wrong with Lifen and he has to know the reason behind her cold att.i.tude.

He tugged his hand into the front pockets of his pant and strolled out of the room. "Where is she?" , he asked the waiter who was waiting for him out the room.

"Sir, as you said I have watched her and right now, she went out in the garden. But...", the waiter paused.

"But?"

"But sir, I am not sure whether she is alone of not. A guy came few minutes later after you left. And when she went out, he seemed to follow her behind in the same direction", the waiter reported.

Deming didn't wait any longer or said anything to the waiter. He walked in the direction where he had indicated.

Reaching the garden, he saw the familiar silhouette standing under the light pole. Her hair was s.h.i.+ning and was appearing more silky under the light. But then came the figure of someone standing in front of her, that made his eyes annoyed and blood boil in his nerves.

She was standing with Chang and hold his hands firmly. They were having some conversation which he wasn't able to hear at this distance. His jaws tightened and he clenched his fist. He took some step forward in their direct but then stopped in midway. He can't go there like that, he will wait here and let them complete their conversation. And if Chang dares to do anything to her again, then he will not spare him this time.

But now at his current distance, he can hear their conversation.

Lifen gently patted Chang hands, "It's okay Chang. I know you never intended to hurt me and that day you weren't aware of your actions too. So I am not angry. At the end of the day, you are still my good friend who had always helped me going out of his way".

"Lifen, But I lov....", Chang still didn't wanted to lose hope, so he tried to persuade her once more. He has loved her for almost half of his life, how can he give up on her that easily.

"Chang, I know that you love me. I am sorry but my heart can't reciprocate to your love. You already knew the reason for that. I never hid the reason from you".

"I know Lifen that you always thought good for me. You never gave false hope to me. But you need to be clear to this, he had not returned to you yet. You have already waited for him too long and still waiting for him. Don't you ever thought that he might have moved on and would have already forgotten you. He might have someone else in his life and might be just bluffing your heart"

Lifen looked blankly at Chang. He wanted to say something else but then a stern chilly voice rang in his ears, "You really have a lot of patience Chang. Really impressed with your guts in love".

Chang and Lifen tilted their head to look at the direction from where the voice came. Deming tall-fit-handsome silhouette came to their sight.

Lifen wasn't surprised with his presence in the restaurant. She has already came across to him before but never thought he would come looking for her. She looked behind him, he wasn't walking with Jie.

"Mr.w.a.n.g, I never thought I would again come across to you. But I never expected you would interrupt in between again", Chang said nonchalantly.

Something that irked Deming. He gazed at Lifen but she was standing there indifferently. "Really? But I think I should interrupt in between because the conversation has involved me too", he sneered.

"Huh? How so? I never talked about you especially in our present conversation ", Chang was confused.

Deming gave him a cold smile, "Look Mr.Chang, sorry I don't remember your first name but I don't think that even matters. Right now, you were accusing Lifen for waiting for me, don't you?"

Chang was confused but he was sure that Deming has misunderstood everything. He wasn't anywhere in their conversation before. He was talking about the boy who have impressed Lifen's heart in her childhood and then had disappeared. He laughed when realized his misunderstanding.

But Lifen was shocked too. She stared at Deming unwaveringly. Did he remember her? Or did he misunderstood their conversation? If he had misunderstood then in no way she will let him know what Chang was talking about or about her past with him in the childhood.
