A Billion Dollar Exchange

Liu Wei covered her lips tenderly, shutting her unsaid words; many things were flowing through her head at that moment,? she quickly held his head put, but when he saw that she was about to resume her unending questions, he replied; 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

''Grandma said not actually, but since grandpa let us come to the house for dinner, I think there is hope''

A bright smile washed her lips, and her eyes twinkled excitedly;

''Oh my god!! Oh my god!! ''

She screamed breathlessly; she didn't know if she was going to laugh or cry; a joyful laughter left her lips as she hugged the hell out of his neck;

''Hurray!! Oh my, when are we going? Do I have something to wear?! I didn't even go to the saloon, my hair has some overgrowth, baby, I didn't even do my manicure! ''

She pushed him aside and stood up wearing only her panties, her hands on her boobs;

Liu Wei lay on his back, his hands under his head as he watched her walk confusedly around the room, almost naked.

''Why are you still lying there! Stand up and say something! ''

Liu Wei let out a muffled laughter, tears clouding his eyes;

When his grand mom called the day before to tell him the good news, he couldn't explain how happy he felt; for the first time in a long while, his family had put a smile on his face. He had intended breaking the news to her immediately, but he took his time to admire the woman he had loved for so long and how finally he could be able to live with her forever.

As he watched her, he couldn't contain the joy that flowed through his heart; his eyes became misty on their own;

''I fucking love you…''

He said, staring at her, still smiling.

Liling, who was about to ask him another question froze when she heard him whisper, almost on the verge of tears;

''Baby… are you crying? ''

She asked, coming to sit beside him on the bed; Liu Wei shook his head immediately and used one palm to wipe his eyes;

''Oh my god…''

She exclaimed, hugging him and kissing his on the lips;

''I love you too, so much! Thank God we can be together; I don't know what I would have done without you. ''

She said, burying her head in the crook of his neck.

Liu Wei raised his hand to caress her back, hugging her closer;

''Grandma says we can come today or whenever we are free, do you want to go over today? ''

Liling nodded immediately;

To think he even asked that question. Hell yes! They were going over!

Did he know how long she had waited for this? She couldn't even risk waiting another day, what if something happened and they change their minds?

Almost immediately, something clicked in her mind and she sat upright instantly;

''Wait, you said that Da Xia was behind the miscarriage? ''

Her eyes glistening as she asked; Liu Wei nodded;

''Now I get it! How she knew about my performance that day was because of Yan Ran too! God! She could have easily killed me…''

As her last statement left her lips, Liu Wei pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly; he didn't want to imagine the million things that could have happened to her because of his carelessness.

''Nothing will happen to you anymore, okay? ''

He pecked her forehead;

Liling remained calm in his arms imagining how close she was to her enemy all these while. But finally it was all over; she had nothing else to worry about;

''it's past twelve already, let's go shower; we don't want to be late! ''

Remembering what they had to do that day and putting the sad thoughts behind her, she stood up from the bed and walked towards the bathroom; Liu Wei stood up and followed behind her.

…

''I'll never hurt her again, it was an act of foolishness and it will never happen again, I promise.''

Jin Yue knelt before Xin Yong's parents his head bowed a little, although he had insisted otherwise, Xin Yong still came to kneel beside him, her head bowed in the same manner. Xin Yong seeing that her parents weren't replying to him repeated his statement in her own words;

''Dad, Mom, he says he loves me so much and will never hurt me again, he really means it…''

Jin Yue held her hand and squeezed it a little to make her stop talking;

''Xin Xin, you are not his mouthpiece!''

Her father's eyes darted towards her and she immediately shut her lips with a pout;

After some seconds, he turned towards Jin Yue again;

''Young man, you were saying…''

''I really wronged you both and your beautiful daughter, I know I should not even be here but I plead that you forgive me and put the past behind us, I promise to take care of your daughter with everything in my power? and to the last drop of my blood. I know my apology would not make any difference, neither would it take away the hurt it has caused on this family but I beg you to give me another chance, I promise to be better. ''

He concluded, swallowing some spittle that he didn't know had been hanging on his throat.

Xin Yong's dad stared at him sternly, after a few seconds, he asked;

''Why should I forgive you and give you my daughter over again, how am I sure that what happened before isn't going to repeat itself? ''

At that question, Jin Ye held onto Xin Yong's hand firmly;

He had a thousand things to say but at that moment he was dumbfounded;

He thought for a while, before raising his head to look at their faces;
