The Undefined Love - Chapter 357

Lifen was taken aback with that sudden proposal. It was her second time hearing the same words from his lips. Has this man really taken marriage to be so easy? This man was so full of himself that nothing else seemed to be difficult for him. “Do you think marriage is that easy?” she asked, looking at him with narrowed eyes. After that she didn’t wait for him to react and got down from his lap. Deming looked and nodded, “Of course marriage is easy if you know with whom you want to spend your life with. And I am sure the only one I want in this life is you. So it is very easy, isn’t it?” He said as if the was the only requirement needed in the marriage, To some extent, his reason wasn’t wrong. For a marriage, it is important for the people to know if they want to be with each other or not and will they be able to live together for a life. But that was not the only thing required for a marriage to happen. Lifen looked at the man as if she was asking him ‘hey can you take a thought more deeper’. Understanding her words of her eyes, he shook his head in disapproval. No in case of this particular topic only this much thoughts were enough. He wasn’t going to think any deeper about the old man this woman was talking about. “What? Are you serious?” she asked, looking at the man whose unreasonability might never end. “Didn’t you last say that you will impress my grandfather and will then go for this topic? Then are you now backing down on your words?” The man looked at her, “Little Cat, you are backing down on your words now. I clearly said that we will get a marriage certificate once we return back. And you have also approved that thought”. He was all happy and waiting for her yet here she is telling that she won’t be marrying him until her grandfather approves. He was sure, if they wait for her grandfather approval then they have to wait for another set of ten years. And yet it won’t be confirmed if he would even allow them to get married or not. There is no way he would be waiting for that old man’s approval. Lifen who had heard his words just now was in her memory scanning mode. Why she can’t remember any of her words like he mentioned. Did she really approve that thought? How can she? She was still dwelling in her thoughts when Deming lifted her chin up to meet his eyes, “Little Cat, are you really going back on your words?” he asked dangerously, like he was on his edge of losing patience. Looking at his such a serious expression, one thing was sure that this man wasn’t bluffing her regarding these words. Smiling awkwardly, she said sheepishly “Why can’t I remember myself saying those words?” “You … do you really not remember promising me those words”, he asked in disbelief. Lifen shook her, “No, I don’t remember”. She said blinking her eyes trying to act all cute and adorable so that the damage the devil was planning to make would be less, Seeing her acting so cute, Deming could not bring himself to reprimand her. This woman really knows how to deal with his every mood. But who is here to be blamed. He himself has given her so much power that her one smile can influence his mood entirely and can give it a 360 degree turn. When Lifen sensed Deming getting normal she asked again since she was really curious to know what made her agree to his words. Was she drunk? Or under the effect of some drug effect that she agreed to him so readily? Deming looked at him at her with calculative eyes which made her feel guilty in her heart. She knew how peculiar this man was regarding this topic, yet here she has taken it like this topic has nothing to do with her. “I know I’ve been a little insensitive here. I am sorry. But can you please remind me when I have said that to you? Why can I remember that? Was I drunk?” she asked, infuriating him further. “Enough! Do you think I will take advantage of your drunk state to make you agree about this? This is how you see me?” he was really feeling unjust inside but at the same time looking at her all confused was giving him an urge to kiss her. “Ahh I really I never thought I would ever forget such a thing. But now however I think I still can’t remember. Maybe in the last few days I was too stressed regarding Guang that I don’t remember anything else”, she reasoned out but the man was really not satisfied with her reason. “It was you who have asked me to come back and marry you. I have waited for 10 years so that I can come and fulfill that wish of yours. But now when I am asking you to marry me, you are giving me excuses. Isn’t you backing down with so many you have made to me.” He said looking at her all rigid.  _____________ At this moment, Back in H Nation, the whole economy has been shaken. Still no one has guessed what has gone wrong. The sleep from the eyes of all big entrepreneurs and businessmen has long gone. They felt like if they get sleep for even a moment then there would be no money left with them the next morning. So they have already put their sleep at the back of their head. Everywhere there was a rush. They have even gone to ask the government officials if they have any idea regarding it, but no one has any answer. It felt like it was some kind of newly developed virus about which no scientist has any knowledge. Among everyone the worst blow has been taken by Gao Industries. All the contracts and tenders they have got have already been taken away from them. It was like they have been blacklisted by someone powerful in the industry. When things started getting normal, the situation for Gao Industries remained deteriorating, like at the end they will be left with nothing in their pockets. Above all that, the young master of the house was nowhere to be found. No one knows where he went.  The Old man Gao was pacing around the living room, anxiously getting the reports. He wanted his good for nothing grandson in front of his eyes so that he could teach him a harsh lesson but he is nowhere to be found. “Did you get any news of the young amster” he asked all sternly to the man who had come with yet another report. New reports were blasting after every 15 minutes as every passing second was bringing down the prices of the stock and shares. “We aren’t able to trace him yet. But we have got news that he has left for London, three days before as a flight ticket got booked on his name”, the subordinate from the company who has come with the report informed. “What about the stock prices? Did the things come under our control?” he asked in a hoarse voice. He was an old man and taking so much stress wasn’t good for this heath but he has no other option left. The subordinate who had come, shook his head in disapproval as he kept his head bowed, “Sorry Old Master but the situation is just going out of control and we are not able to control it. The price of the shares are about to cross the line from where we will never be able to revive it sooner. If we still didn’t get our grip on it then it will be really hard for the company to survive in the nearest future” The old man huffed and puffed but couldn’t understand what he could do. At the end, left with no choice he ordered in a very stern voice, “I got that. We have just employed a group of good of nothing people who can’t do anything. Enough of your reports, I don’t need it anymore. Just go out and ask the driver to prepare a car. I have to go somewhere” Now he has only one person left from whom he can ask help. If they could not help him then no one else can. So he quickly asked the people to prepare the car so that he can drive his way to them. Soon the car reached some underground base that has been located at city limits of H nation. No one travels the way in that direction as that particular area has been famous for being the darkest and the dangerous area in the entire country. An area that has been famous to be ruled Dark Scorpions, whose name was enough to send shivers in the heart of people who have known their existence.
