Unexpected Encounter:They Were Meant To Be Together

[This is a BONUS chapter highlighting things that I happened to miss out and a few events that happened before and after Zian and Mian welcomed their daughter]

Nine months ago (A month after Qiang gave birth)

Li Mansion.

"Dude your dark circle, they don't look good," Yinhai remarked.

"I have two babies and one of them loves crying everyday at three in the morning everyday. I am fortunate to be still alive," Guang sighed.

"Seems like Mia is already troubling you," Ashton chuckled.

"Mia is a sweetheart, she is just thirty days old and yet she is so considerate. She doesn't cry—well, sometimes she does but if you coax her for sometime, she will keep quiet but Yuhan—" Helplessly shaking his head, Guang sighed, "He stops crying only after Qiang starts coaxing him."

"Seems like Mia and Yuhan have already chosen their favourite parent."

"Isn't that nice? I mean, you can take care of Mia while Qiang and take care of Yuhan. It's more convenient that way," Ashton remarked.

"Not really, I want Qiang to relax so I try not to disturb her at night. But it has been a couple of days, she woke up because Yuhan won't stop crying."

Patting his shoulder, Ashton sighed, "Good luck mate, you have my respect."

"Mine too, it's not at all easy taking care of one child let alone two at the same time."

"It's not easy but it's very weirdly satisfying as well. I mean, they are my kids so no matter how tiring it is, I have this satisfaction of raising them," Guang smiled.

"You sound so proud and happy," Yinhai chuckled. "Anyway, let's talk about the main thing now."

"Yes, what is it? Why are you guys here at this hour?"

"It's about Henry—"

"The guy who is after Elsa?" When Ashton nodded his head, Guang inquired, "So did he finally fall in our trap?"

"It took some time but yes he did," Yinhai answered.

It had been months since they were trying to get their hands on Henry who had disappeared after abducting Elsa. Following Guang's plan, Ashton had instructed Elsa to contact him and call him over. But unfortunately, nothing worked according to their plan initially. The call would either not go through or it would land up in the voice mail.

But after trying continuously for quite some time, Elsa managed to convince him to come and meet her.

"That is great, where are we meeting him and when?" Guang inquired.

"Tomorrow evening, central park," Ashton answered.

"What are we gonna do with him?"

"I promised Elsa that I will hand him over to the police," Ashton sighed.

"We should deal with him in our way," Yinhai suggested.

"I know but I already promised her and I don't wanna break it."

"Alright, let's plan according to that then. Once this Henry guy is behind the bars, we have nothing to worry about."

....

Next day

Qiang's room.

"Moving? But why?" Singtan frowned.

"Singtan stop shouting, you'll wake the kids up," Ming shushed him down.

Lowering his voice, he complained, "Why do you have to move out? Everything is fine here and the babies are so small, how are you both going to manage all by yourselves?"

"Dad, wasn't this already planned? You told us to stay here until my delivery and it's not like we are shifting tomorrow. Maybe after a couple of months." Since everything was back on track, Qiang and Guang were considering shifting to their new place to mark a new beginning.

"Two months? The babies will be just three months by then, how will you manage?" Singtan remarked. "Guang will be at work all day, how will you take care of them alone?"

"But dad, we can't stay here forever—"

Cutting her off, he frowned, "Why not? This is your house too. You can stay here as long as you want."

"I know that but—"

"I think Qiang is right. I would love it and I want her to stay with us but she is married now and has her own family, we need to consider that as well," Ming explained.

Scrunching his brows, Singtan walked out of the room. "Do whatever you guys want to do, no one listens to me in this house."

"Dad—"

"Don't worry about him, I'll talk to him later." Gently caressing her head, Ming smiled, "Take some rest."

Qiang nodded her head. "I am just waiting for Guang."

"He isn't home yet?" Glancing at the watch, Ming added, "He usually comes back at this time."

"Yes but today he has some work with Ash and Yinhai so he will be a little late."

…..

Central Park

Placing his hand on Elsa's shoulder, Ashton assured her, "I will be very close to you so don't worry, okay? Even Guang and Yinhai are here and we also have a bunch of officers with us. You just need to talk normally with him for a few seconds. The police will handle the rest."

Gulping in nervousness, Elsa nodded her head. "Okay, I got this."

"I seriously didn't want to involve you but this was the only way left and I didn't want him to roam around freely after whatever he did with you."

"Don't worry about me, I am fine."

After getting her assurance, Ashton joined Guang and Yinhai who were standing not too far away.

After waiting for fifteen minutes when Henry did not show up, everyone started getting impatient.

"Is he even coming? What if he got the sniff of our plan?" Yinhai doubted.

"There is a very low chance of that happening," Guang remarked.

"But—"

"Someone is coming, is that Henry?" When Ashton nodded his head, Yinhai informed one of the officers.

When Elsa saw Henry walking towards her, she panicked a little but somehow managed to calm herself down.

"What do you wanna know?"

"Why didn't you answer my calls? I called you so many times," Elsa remarked.

"I was waiting for the right time." Looking around, he took out an envelope from his pocket. "This envelope has all the information." Giving it to her, he added, "Let me know your decision after you read this and—"

Just then a few officers emerged from the back and pinned him down.

When Henry tried to struggle, one of the officers warned him. "Don't move."

Ashton quickly approached Elsa along with Guang and Yinhai.

"Are you okay?" When she nodded her head, Ashton pulled her in his embrace.

When the police dragged Henry away, Yinhai followed them for other procedures while Guang left for home after making sure everything was sorted.

....

Inside Ashton's car.

Looking at the envelope she was still holding, Ashton said, "You can read it if you want to."

Without saying anything, Elsa tore the envelope into several pieces and tossed it out of the window.

Smiling at him, she wrapped her arms around his and rested her head on his shoulder.
