The Undefined Love

Deming introspected her words deeply and then said, "Lifen, she is not like what you think. She won't make hard for you. She is kind in heart. Come tomorrow, I will introduce you to her. She will really like you, after all you are someone really special to me".

Special? Was she really someone special to him? She laughed inwardly and upbraided her heart. She gave him a gentle nod and looked out the window. This road was deserted same as her heart. Deming looked at her quiet demeanor and and then turned to drove the car to her house.

______________________

At Carnation Hills.

Jie was sitting on the bed comfortably leaning on the soft pillow at the head of the bead. Her body had become very much weak and infirm due to her comatose, but her face didn't lose it's charm. Her feeble can charm anyone. She was having her medicinal soup.

When she finished her soup, the nurse poured out the medicines for her and fed her with much care directed to her body.

At this instant, the door got open to which Jie's eyes shone instantly, but right at the moment when she looked at the person who came in her expression gave disappointment.

Murphy sauntered inside. There was a warm smile on his face, "Ms.Long, how are you feeling now? I have asked the doctors about your condition and they said that you are quite stable now. Do you need anything?".

Jie looked at him with disinterest and shook her head. Murphy didn't expected this response from her. Why was she behaving as this was her first time meeting him? She was quite familiar with him from the days when she met Deming but now she is behaving like.... She even called him 'angel uncle'.

With that last thought, a cute innocent petite face stroke his thoughts and his curled a little upwards. He still remembers when Lifen called him his angel uncle. Exactly now she also calls him as her angel uncle. Sometimes her activities and words are so similar to the little he knew. But that not possible, the girl sitting on the bed with a frail body is the girl, he once knew.

Subconsciously thinking about this, he took a deep look of Jie and shrugged away all his previous thoughts, 'She might not remember me because she is too weak right now, due to her comatose'.

He silently walked out of the room, closing the door behind him.

Jie looked at the door which was now closed again, then turned her head towards the maid who was arranged there for her, "Who was he?"

"Miss, he was the Chief Secretary of our Boss", the maid replied.

"Hmph, he lacks in manners. I have to ask Brother Ming to teach them well. He didn't bowed his head to greet me".

Murphy was about to get in his car when Deming's car strolled in. Seeing him, Murphy pause and waited for him to step out of the car.

Stopping the engine, Deming came out of the car, there was a slight exhaustion in his eyes. "You can ease now. Ms.Long is now fine, her body is little weak now but she will recover soon", Murphy said with a smile, "Now I would ask your leave. We have a important meeting in afternoon tomorrow with Lan Corporation. Everything is prepared and is already mailed to you. Just go through it before the meeting "

Deming nodded and started to walk inside. Murphy turned to get into his car, when his raspy voice reached his ears, "Uncle"

It's rare when Deming address him with that word. It's mainly when he needs an advice on his life or any of his personal matter. He knows that he consider him as fatherly figure. He had only trusted him after his parents death.

Hearing his tired voice addressing him 'Uncle', he responded tenderly, "Hmm?"

"No it's okay. It's quite late now. I will find time to speak to you", he walked inside leaving Murphy confused. Seeing his silhouette disappear, he sighed and went inside his car.

The maids were quite happy for their master. They have seen the tender care, he gave to this Miss. When they saw walking inside the mansion, they greeted him politely with a bright smile.

Deming went directly towards the Jie's room. As the door opened, he was greeted with her soft innocent smile, "Brother Ming!!" and next came down the tears rolling on her cheeks.

She tried to get up from the bed and walk to him but her frail body didn't support her. Looking her struggling, Deming rushed forward to hold her feeble body.

"Calm down, you don't have to struggle so much Jie. I am here", he helps her to sit back comfortably and then took his seat on chair beside the bed.

"Thank You, Brother Ming for being there for me. I missed you. Do you miss me too?", she sobbed and hugged him.

Deming felt a little uncomfortable when she hugged him suddenly. He patted her head softly and gently mumbled, "I missed my little girl".

Her eyes got a little darker for a light moment but it was only of a slightest moment, "Brother Ming, you still miss your little girl. I am all grown now. You should forget her and remember me".

Deming left a chuckle, "But I really missed my little girl. I love her".

"Brother Ming, you are really annoying".

"Okay, leave all this. You shouldn't get jealous of yourself. So childish. You should rest early, I will leave now. And yeah there is something important tomorrow. I will introduce to someone", he said with a smile and left the room.

Jie's expression changed, she mumbled lightly, "You will soon love me and forget that girl from before".
