The Devil’s love

"Aunt Lin, I thought you were on my side and you liked the rules," Yichan grunted.

"For the last time Yi, there are no rules. Since we have invited them to stay with us, we have to make sure that they are comfortable. I am not saying that we have to reconcile with them or you should accept your father and his new family, all I am saying is that they are our guests and we need to take care of them." Ning had no intentions or making things right between Yichan and his father, she would neither interfere nor say anything. She would only be careful and make sure that no one hurts Yichan. ​​

"So you are saying that you are going to cook for them, talk to them and let them be friends with you? I love you honey and you are the boss of this house and my life too but I won't allow this," he declared.

Pinching the bridge of her nose, she sighed, "Yichan I know something is bugging me so will you please talk to me? If you don't tell me how you feel, how will I understand?"

Sensing the tension between the couple, aunt Lin excused herself, "I'll serve some refreshments to the guests."

After aunt Lin left, Ning sat on his lap and cupped his cheeks, "I am waiting to hear you out."

Caressing her waist, he contemplated for a while before confessing, "I don't want to lose you." Keeping quiet for quite some time, he explained further, "I have lost a lot of things in my life, my parents, a happy and normal childhood, I almost lost you too. The way things are changing, I am scared. I am done with losing things in my life, I don't want to—"

"Shh it's okay, you have nothing to worry about Yichan. I know things were very tough before but not anymore. You are not gonna lose anyone or anything, I'll always be there with you no matter what happens so you have nothing to worry about. Well, I understand that things are changing and we never expect your father to return but it has already happened. No this doesn't mean that you will have to make things right with him or talk to him, you don't have to do anything that you don't want to." Pressing her forehead against his, she adde, "Always remember that I'll always be there with you. If you want to make things right with your father and talk to him, I'll support you but if you don't want to, I'll be there with you all the time."

"Hmm so to avoid any kind of mishap, I asked you not to stay near them,'" he sighed.

"That is never going to happen Yi, what makes you think that it's so easy to separate you and me? Remember how you told me that we have already crossed all the obstacles of our relationship in the past and now it's the time to just love and support each other?" When he nodded his head, she smiled, "Then why are you so worried? Everything is going to be fine between us."

Burying his face on her chest, he sighed, "Okay, I feel a lot better now."

Running her fingers through his hair, she added, "I don't know why he decided to come back after so many years, I have no idea so I can't give you any kind of assurance that nothing more chaotic will happen in the future but I can assure you that nothing chaotic will happen between this. Not a single soul will be able to wreck what we have."

"Promise?"

Sticking her Pinky finger out, she chuckled, "Pinky promise."

"I think we should seal this deal with a kiss too, I mean that would make me feel much better and secure."

Knocking his forehead, she chuckled, "Look at you acting all sly again." Without waiting for his reply or letting him make a move, she slipped down his lap.

"I'll go and greet them once, finish your breakfast first and then come out," she instructed before walking away.

Living room.

"So you left everything and followed Yichan here?" Yitong inquired.

"Yes," aunt Lin flatly answered.

Placing his hand on Helena's back, Yitong explained, "Honey, she is Lin who has been working for our family for years now. She was there when Yichan was born and—"

Cutting him off, aunt Lin snapped, "I was also there when your son was crying asking you not to leave. I was there when he was down with fever, calling out for his parents but no one was there to look after him. I was there to see how elder Mo took care of the little boy and other things all by himself."

Realizing that she may have crossed her line, aunt Lin lowered her head and was about to apologize when Yitong said, "This is why I want to thank you for taking care of Yichan."

"I don't think so you need to thank anyone for what they did when you weren't available, aunt Lin took care of Yi because she genuinely cares for him. Though this wasn't a part of her duty, she is still taking care of him till date." Walking towards them, Ning placed her hand on aunt Lin's shoulder. "Aunt Lin, can you please help me look for Yichan's white shirt? It should be somewhere in his wardrobe."

"But—"

Sensing her hesitation to leave her alone with their supposed guests, Ning assured her, "It's okay, I'll show them their rooms."

After aunt Lin left, Ning ignored Yitong and smiled at Helena. "I'll show you the room and I have arranged a separate one for your son. You can look for aunt Lin if you need anything or me if I am at home."

Grabbing her hand, Helena sighed, "We really didn't want to trouble you and Yi–"

"It's alright, it's usually just the two of us so having a few more people around wouldn't harm."
