Grandpa Song said "Meili meet your family. My son and your uncle Song Ling, my daughter-in-law and your aunt Meng Xia and my grandson your cousin Song Chen. "
Meili didn't know how to react so she politely bowed and said "Hello Uncle Ling, Aunt Song and Cousin Chen. It's nice to meet you. "
All of them started laughing and Meng Xia said "Dear no need to be so formal, come give your aunt a hug. " and with this she hugged Meili tightly.
Song Ling also lovingly stroked her head and said welcome back dear. Then it was Song Chen's turn, even now he was grinning happily and said "Finally I got a sister, it took you so long. Now I won't let you go and spoil my dear sister. Don't consider me as your cousin but treat me as your real big brother. " saying this he also embraced her tightly but warmly.
Meili overcame with emotions. She also started smily stupidly with moist eyes.
Grandpa Song said, "Meili now that you are with us we don't want you to leave us. I have gathered enough information to know what you are facing in that hell hole because of that man and his so called family. "
When Grandpa Han said this, Anger could be seen in his and others eyes.
Meili felt touched but she can't leave her father because there was hope in her heart that one day she'll ger her father's love back. So she said "Grandpa I know you care for, all of you and I also know that what he did with mother was very wrong, but I know he will change oneday. I'll make him change with my love. Give me sometime, if even after that I failed then I'll obey you and come back. "
Listening to her everyone wanted to refute but they knew it will be useless as she has already set her mind. So even though they were not happy about her decision, they agreed.
Meili was happy to get their approval, as she wanted to be with her complete family.
Then she turned towards her mother and said "Mother soon you'll be going to City A for treatment and I can't accompany you there. But mother I'll be waiting for you here. You'll have to get fine soon and come back to your daugher. " saying this she again hugged her.
After spending some time there, they all decide to head back now. Once outside her uncle said "Meili although you want to stay there but our doors are always open to you. Keep visiting us and spend some more time so that we can makeup for the lost time. "
Chen also joined in and said "Yes, little sister this brother also wants to know more about you and spend a lot of time with you. "
Seeing her son like this mother Song was amused said "When did you became so warm and talkative? Last we remember you behave coldly to your parents as well. "
Listening to his mother he said "Mom she is my sister and for her I can do anything and and love and warmth are the only emotions for her from me, my coldness will never exist in front of her. " saying this he smiled lovingly and stroker Meili's head.
Meili was so happy that she doesn't know how to express her gratitude. She said "Thank you brother, I'll also try to be the best little sister. "
He said "You don't need to because you already are the best sister. "
Seeing all this scene grandpa Song cleared his throat and said "Fine fine, It's enough emotions." Then he looked towards her and said Meili we love you and we'll wait for you.
.....
Present Time
Remembering that day Meili felt so emotional, after that day she spent soo much time with them, visiting them from time to time.
Her mother is still not back as she is still recovering. Her grandpa, aunt and uncle visit her from time to time. She also went once to see her.
She also never disclosed the Song family's identity to her father as Grandpa song said till the time she is with them it will not be good as someway or other they'll try to use her too if they came to know about her relation with them. She agreed as she also wanted to earn her father's love with her efforts and not due to influence.
Thinking about them she decided to visit them along with Li Han to get their blessing. She doesn't want to repeat the mistake her mother made. And moreover her grandpa knew about them as he is aware about the Li family and he seemed fine with their relationship. He was more angry on her father for trying to forcefully marry her to the Huo family.
Thinking about all this she didn't realized the time and it was already afternoon. She was still thinking about all this and knowingly sleep took over her.
It was at around 7 in the evening when Han came back, did he noticed the lights of the house off. So he turned them on and saw the sleeping figure of Meili.
"Stupid girl, can't even sleep properly." and smiled helplessly. Going to her he squated down and looked at her. She was looking so peacefull in her sleep but he frowned when he saw the tear stains on her checks and her puffed eyes. Without even asking he knew that she cried and also the reason. He was so angry at her father for treating her like this.
Sometimes he want to scold her for being so rigid on thinking that she can change him by her love. That man can never change, but he was helpless against her. So he let her be, but if they tried to cross the line and did anything wrong with her then he would never let the off the hook and make them pay for everything.
