when it doesn't hurt anymore

Yiyan invite her business partner also her ex wife ji yoon on stage. Everyone started murmuring about their relationship.

" they look so good together, both are powerful and strong and beautiful ..i guess why they got separated. "

" lin ran is no match to ji yoon, although he is good looking but can't match jiyoon aura"

" maybe mr. yi is more interested in men, what a pity."

The topic suddenly change to linran. Linran listening all this felt uncomfortable over there. Linmeng face was quite unpleasant. Of course he don't like this type of dirty talk about his grandson.

" don't pay attention to them, they just don't have anything to talk." Linmeng tried to comfort linran.

" it's ok i am quite use to it" linran just smile and change the topic to zinzin.

The event almost come to end. Linmeng was tired so he went back to home with linzheng. Zinzin was sleepy so linran took her away in a garden. He sat on a table, In a few she felt asleep in linran's arm.

Linran was stoking her hair gently as if touching something precious.

" you have become quite close to my zinzin."

Hearing this voice linran's hand tremble. His face become ugly. And feel like he is out of breath. It's zinzin's biological mother, 'jiyoon'.

" you...." linran ask in somewhat shaky voice.

Jiyoon smirk and said

" i don't think you like me coming close to you"

"...." linran hold zinzin more tightly.

Jiyoon stare at linran little movements And said "don't worry i will not snatch her from you"

After hearing jiyoon, then only he let his guard down. And ask...

" why are you here? "

" i am here to look after zinzin, how she is doing, am i not allowed to?" she ask this while smiling gently.

"No you can ..i mean she is also your daughter" linran voice was little chocked.

Jiyoon smile and continued" she is my blood and flesh but still you are the one who is raising and making so many efforts. And i am pretty sure that bast*rd yiyan is not even helping you by looking at his nature. it's better to leave her to your care so it's only ok to call her your daughter...i ..i don't deserve her"

Linran didn't like what jiyoon said.".....how can you say all that about yourself. I know how hard it is to give birth. Even if you aren't raising her the fact don't change that you are the one who given birth to her. you are her biological mother"

" i abandoned her right after her birth so calling me her mother is not fair at all, i am selfish and she need someone who can look after her selflessly and you are right one. unlike me, She choosen you" jiyoon show a painful smile, the surrounding got too heavy, jiyoon change the topic to yiyan.

" anyway quit talking about me, talk about my ex, your husband. Did he treat you well."

Linran was at loss at words then suddenly heard someone voice. It was yiyan.

" if you are done with my back bitching with her then should we leave now." His voice was cold.

" i am not as petty as you to about someone behind there back. I can tell you everything at your face that how scumy you were backthen." Jiyoon said this without any hesitation.

" you..." While yiyan got too angry and irritated hearing her voice.

"Anyway i am leaving i can't tolerate to see your face anymore." Jiyoon took her shrug to leave.

" wait.." linran stop her.

" ...? " jiyoon stand there. And ask " do you wanna ask something else"

" you...if you have time you can come to our home for playing with zinzin. She will be happy to have one more person to love her"

Jiyoon got touched by his kind words. But also felt pity for him to have yiyan as his life partner.

She smiles and thanks linran and before leaving she whisper in yiyan ears. " you better cherish this person, before you regret after loosing him."

She knew somewhat that the relationship between linran and yiyan are not good. So she said that and left.

Yiyan didn't understand what jiyoon mean. He thought that she will not like linran for sure as the rumors goes but the whole scenario was different from what he thought.

" you sure are good with manipulating once mind" yiyan said this.

" i didn't do anything"

" let's get going it's already so late, zinzin is asleep"

After the banquet they went back home, linran took zinzin to bed. She was looking so adorable today like a princess. Linran's heart melt by seeing this cuteness.

" daddy, i love you... please don't leave me" she was having a nightmare. Linran got stunned for a moment and whisper in her ear, stroking her hairs gently.

" i love you too my darling, i will never leave you. Don't be afraid okay, daddy is with you so have good dreams only." He kissed her her felt asleep on floor, with his hand on her head.
