World United: Sci-Tech Era

Chapter 57: The Old Love.



For more than five minutes, Ning-ning went to express what's in her mind and finally got tired to sleep in Yang's arms.

Slow and careful, Yang carried Yin to send her to bed.

Gave her a good night kiss on the forehead, put the blanket on and left the room.

Coming back at the dining area, took out his phone and finds a number that he recently saved.

After thinking what message to write, finally edited one and click send.

Back to the lab...

A beautiful and intelligent looking woman in white coat is busy tapping the keyboard when her phone sounded.

Even if she's busy on her work, keeps her phone in sight to see if there's something important to know.

Seeing that it's a new number with a message saying:

"Guess who is it?"

Usually, this kind of message from a new number will be ignored and blocked directly by this woman but she immediately knew in her heart the person was.

A faint smile appeared on her beautiful face as she edit a message and click send.

Yang on the other side was surprised to receive a reply so soon read as;

"So you finally came back from the world of the dead to send me a message. Why,,, is your chatmate ditch you and want me to be the substitute?"

When Yang finished reading, can't help to shake his head with a smile before sending a reply.

Felifina didn't continue to work and waited.

As soon as the phone sounded;

"First of all, I want to say sorry, sorry for everything. The ten years agreement, I failed and it's all on me. I married her but even so, I still want to protect you. Something big is coming so please come back home.

By the way, her name is Ning Ting and very much happy to meet you."

Upon reading the message, instantly felt pain in her chest; but this woman is strong to calm herself and send back a message.

Yang was so nervous when he heard his phone sounded and was in a hurry to open.

"Do you want me to be a 'second' wife?"

The man was so careful on his words before sending.

"You know what kind of a man I am. You're my first love and become a person for me to protect: like my wife, little sister, friends, a family. You don't need to be my wife,,, just stay on my sight for me to protect. What's more, I need you: a capable and trusted person. I'm sure you already heard something related to the outside world. If a person like you is on my side, I will be more relaxed. So please,,, come back to us."

In fact, there's the idea to go home and settle down.

Now that there's a special person to persuade, she didn't hesitate to;

"I will settle things in here as soon as possible and go home directly. Maybe it will take a week or more so you have the time to prepare a lab for me there. There's no need to be big, at least it should meet the basic requirements and needed equipments."

The man was so happy to receive such a message and immediately;

"Thank you Fina, you're really a good person. Don't worry, I will try my best to make your new home satisfying."

Also happy on the other side when she;

"Well, there's no need to thank me. By the way, I sent you something and expect to receive it after nine to ten hours. Remember, you must strictly follow the intructions in the package. Do you understand?"

Curious but didn't ask and directly;

"I understand."

Now that the man understand;

"Then let's say goodbye because I still need to rush things. See you after a week."

Satisfied with the outcome and so;

"Well, see when you get home. Take care. Ps. I missed you so much."

Felifina read the message and didn't reply, only to smile looking at her phone screen.

Jenna her best friend, who came back to buy some snacks, saw this scene and can't help to tease;

*Why,,, am hallucinating or it is true that my best friend is smiling like she's so in love? Come on, who is it? Is it a new guy?

Immediately was;

*New guy,,, do you think i'm that casual. Of course it's that man. By the way Jenna, i'm going home and settle down this time. There's a week to do things here before leaving. It's sudden but we're really going to say goodbye. Don't worry, i'm going to visit you every year.

This best friend heard it with her own ears but still couldn't believe it.

She went to hold Felifina's hands and ask;

*Is it because of that man? Do you really love him that much and could make you leave your work here and go back home? You know, the best facility in the Philippines can't even match an average one here in US. With your capacity, it will only drag you down.

The words are true but can't convince a person who already made a final decision.

Felifina was patient in front of this best friend to say;

*Jenna, I have a few regrets in life and choosing career over love is one of them. To tell you the truth, the man I told you about, he's the one who called and want me to go back home. He also told me that he's married but how come I still agree to go home; it's because I think this is my second chance.

There still much to say but was suddenly;

*Second chance? Fina, did you say he's already married? Are you going to destroy someone's family?

Also was;

*Jenna, who will destroy someone's family? This time, I just want to choose him over my career. Thirteen years, I think that's enough. Right now, it's time to do other thing like: visiting tourist spots, doing what a normal woman does, start a family. In short, it's already decided. I hope you also find time to talk to your boyfriend and get married. You're not growing young and maybe it's too late to have a child if you want to.

Two best friends forgot their research and chose to have a long talk...
