Chapter 858 - Intense feeling
"You are always so mean to us dad, this is not fair," Yushen complained.
Ignoring him, Singtan continued doing what he was, looking at his beloved daughters who were still busy talking to each other.
Puffing his cheeks, he complained, "I don't need your love dad, my mom loves me already."
"Your mom loves me the most and the leftovers are divided amongst the four of you equally," Singtan remarked without sparing a glance at him.
"What are you guys doing outside?" Zian asked before walking towards them.
"Dad is bullying us again big bro," Yushen complained.
Letting out an affirmative sound, Zian inquired, "Did they leave already?"
"Not yet, Qiang is getting ready," Ming answered.
"Why are you guys standing outside? Let's go in."
After Singtan and Ming entered the room, Yushen grabbed Zian's hand to stop him. "Why didn't you say anything?"
"About what?"
"About dad being a bully."
Placing his hands on his Yushen's shoulder, Zian sighed, "Listen to me little brother, I have made my peace with the fact that dad loves his daughters more than us and it's understandable because they are the ones leaving the house and not us. So you should also make peace with it as soon as possible. In fact, the sooner the better."

One month later.
Linyang's office building.
Parking lot.
Walking towards her car, Linyang tightened her grip around her bag before turning around. Scanning her eyes all over the place, she pursed her lips when she did not see anyone. It had been a couple of weeks since she had been feeling someone's presence around her but she had been ignoring them ever since. But for the past two days, the feeling started getting intense making her feel super uncomfortable.
After taking a deep breath to calm herself down, she resumed walking towards her car ignoring the icky feeling.
As soon as she entered the car, she received a call from Andrew.
"Babe where are you? Do you want me to pick you up?" he asked.
"I am on the way, I'll see you at home," she answered.
Scrunched his brows, he inquired, "Everything okay? Did something happen?"
"I—ahhhhh—" she shouted when someone rushed towards her car and slammed the bonnet of the car before running away. Everything happened in a fraction of second and she did not manage to see his face.
"Linyang, what happened?" Andrew panic strickenly inquired when he heard her scream.
"A-Andrew, there is someone here—" she said in a very shaky voice.
"Where are you? Are you inside the car?"
"Yes, I am in the parking lot," she answered before carefully looking around.
"Lock the door and stay inside, no matter what happens, do not step out until you see me. Is that clear?" He instructed.
Following his instructions, she quickly did as she was told. Tightening her grip around her phone which was pressed against her ears, she nervously requested, "Please come fast, I am very sacred Andrew."
"Don't worry, just stay calm. I am sending someone over there now because they are close to that area but still do not come out even if you see them. Just wait for me, I'll be there as fast as I can." After saying that, he quickly hung up the call.
In less than a couple of minutes, four neatly and smartly dressed men arrived and stood right beside her car.
Their presence made Linyang feel a lot better and calm. The initial state of panic and anxiety slowly started dissipating but she knew she would feel completely at peace only after she sees Andrew.
Slumping on the car seat, she closed eyes and took a couple of deep breaths, silently assuring herself that everything will be okay.
After waiting inside the car for almost fifteen minutes, Andrew finally arrived. As soon as she saw him, she quickly stepped out of the car and rushed towards him.
Jumping his embrace, she buried her face on his neck. "Thank God you are here."
Gently c.a.r.e.s.sing her back, he kissed the top of her head before checking on her. "Are you fine?"
When she nodded her head, he breathed a sigh of relief before pulling her back in his embrace.
"Andrew, can you come here for a minute?" Michael, who was talking to the four men who had arrived earlier, called him out.
When she heard a familiar voice, Linyang noticed Michael's presence who had arrived along with Andrew.
Wrapping his arms on her shoulder, he started walking towards them.
Without saying anything, Michael gave him a note which read, 'Meet me at the abandoned building at full moon.'
"They found this on the bonnet," Michael remarked.
"Full moon? What does that even mean?" Linyang inquired.
"It means in two days time," Andrew answered. Giving the note to Michael, he added, "This is like a code word that Pulos taught me when I was young. This is one of the mysterious words that we used to tell each other confidential things."
"What does he want from me?" Linyang frowned.
Looking at her, he explained, "He doesn't want anything from you, he is just using you to convey some message to me."
