My Love You Will Never Escape From Me - Volume 2 Chapter 38 The Box

During breakfast, it was like a tug of war-like situation. On one side there is Mantou and Qi Weilan on the other hand it is Lu Han. And of course. Dilireba is helping Mantou and Qi Weilan, so Lu Han was on the losing end. After breakfast, Qi Weilan and Mantou smirk at Lu Han while giving each other a high five

“Humph! You have two people on your team, no three because Reba is being a double standard. Humph! I’ll go to work now.”

“Okay.”

And just before Lu Han was out, he turned back and said, “Humph! Just you wait, I’ll come back again.”

He turns and left.

Mantou and the girls laughed.

“Only villains would say that he would come back soon. Hahaha.”

It was a pleasant morning and a good start for the day.

Dilireba smiled before she told Qi Weilan that she is going to change.

Qi Weilan nodded.

Yue Yingque dropped Mantou off at school, while the girls had a mission to do today.

“Lan jie, let’s go.”

“Mhm.”

Today, Dilireba was dressed comfortably, wearing all black. A shirt, jacket, and jeans.

Qi Weilan was in the same style except her top is white and jacket and jeans are of a navy blue.

Qi Weilan started the car.

“Let’s go. Destination: Uncle’s house!”

The girls chatted through the whole car ride. It took them about 2 hours to reach his house.

“Reba! Weilan!” A figure was waving their hand at them as they pulled over.

The girls got out of the car and smiled.

“Uncle!”

“It’s been so long since I’ve seen you, girls. You have really grown up, have you. The last time I saw you, you are only this tall, now you are almost as tall as me. Time has really passed by, hasn’t it.”

“Mhm.”

“Anyways, here is the key. Anyways, I have an errand to run. Weilan, say hi to your husband and Mantou for me. Bye!”

The uncle walked away.

“…”

“Well, that was quick.”

‘Mhm. I wonder what errand he was sent on.”

“Who knows? Anyways let’s go get the box.”

“Okay, let’s go.”

The girls went inside the house, it was pretty empty.

“The atmosphere really changes so much after Aunt has left.”

“Mhm. The house seems so empty now. Uncle also said that he doesn’t want to remarry.”

The girls sighed. Their aunt was very optimistic and cheerful. She is the love of their uncle’s life, one he holds very close to his heart. Unfortunately, she had died when she saved a child, sacrificing herself. She was very kind and the only one that can bring life back to this house. And after their aunt left, their uncle was very depressed and had one a year after their aunt’s death, are they affirmed that uncle had heart disease. His time is very limited, but he spends his time reading and admiring nature.

The girls walked towards the kitchen, the box was on the table.

Dilireba nervously looked at Qi Weilan, who pats her shoulder and gives her a reassuring smile.

The box was small and looked very ordinary with a smile curving on the top.

Dilireba took a deep breath and slowly opened the box.

Inside were a silver case and a note.

Dilireba was confused and she felt a sudden pang of pain.

Dilireba opens the note.

_______________________________

Dear Daughter,

Congratulations on the wedding, although I’m sure that you don’t really want this. I’m sorry, but it is the only way to keep you safe, I had a feeling that we have been targeted and perhaps when you find this, we are already gone.

Do you remember where we found you? Perhaps not. But when you are 3, there was an incident near that area, I have doubts that the people are targeting you. And my doubts prove to be right when the news said that someone went to find you in your elementary school when you are sick. That person doesn’t look like you. Although I’m not sure what his real identity is, I’m not giving up my daughter especially when you are lost in the woods. And I know that you must be there for a reason. And a reason why this person only went to the woods when you are 3 not earlier.

Although I’m not your biological mother, I really do care for you. Although I’m sure that you are tired of hearing this, I really do care for you and that what I do most likely was for your good. Although we don’t know your real identity, I know that you are our beloved daughter and the little bundle of life that Heaven gave us. I’m really glad that you are in my life, you know that sweetie? Your smiles, innocence, and drawing are what got us going through hardsh.i.p.s and challenges in life. Your existence is like encouragement and a bundle of hope.

If for some reason, you divorce or want to, your father and I will stand by your side. We will protect you yourself even though I’m sure that you will be safer in the hands of the Deng family. I’m sorry your parents aren’t powerful enough.

And if for some reason we disappear, take precautions and protect yourself. This silver dagger, remember to keep it close by your side and use it when in danger. Find people that are willing to have help and support you. Stay strong. I know that you are a brave and strong girl.

Sweetie, remember that we have and will always love you.

Love, Mom

Dilireba carefully folds the letter and tuck it inside her pocket. Unknowingly, her eyes had already become blurred and streaks of tears ran down her face.

[Mom, although you are not my mother by blood, I have already believed that you are despite this fact. I have witnessed your love for me myself. Mom, I love you too. Although I don’t say it very often, I’m sure that you know about this fact too. Thank you.]

Qi Weilan hugged her and wiped Dilireba’s tears softly while standing by her side quietly. She squeezed Dilireba’s hand and gave her a gentle smile.

Dilireba smiled back, she carefully took the dagger out of the case and examined it. It was very small and can be easily hidden. There was a scabbard that covers the blade. Dilireba pulls the blade out. The blade gleams like a mirror reflecting them. The dagger was simple in design but the dagger was the symbol of love that Dilireba’s parents had left for her. Dilireba holds the dagger tightly and keeps it close to her, her eyes determined to find the murderer behind the scene. She was sure that they were targeting her and to get to her, they removed the obstacles or Dilireba’s parents.

On the side Qi Weilan kept quiet but her eyes turned cold. [How dare you harm, our little sunshine?!]

She quietly and swiftly messages the Theians

Hestia: Code god. Someone is on the run to hunt out dear Theia. And the case of Theia’s parent’s death is not an accident. Request for defense and revenge
