Chapter 129: I’ve decided

“I’m….Grandmother Meng’s client! As for what happened here, I don’t know. It was already a mess when I came.”

“Grandmother’s client?” Suyang narrowed his eyes to indicate his lack of trust towards me.

“Hi! You must be Suyang?” I lightly punched Suyang on the shoulder.

I slowly began to re-adjust my emotions and deleted the record of the call. Then, I casually walked over to Suyang and handed him back his phone. “At the latest, Grandmother Meng should be home by tomorrow night.”

“Who did you talk to?” Suyang was going through the records but I had already deleted it. “You’re really a suspicious person. Who are you?!” Suyang glared at me.

“A person you don’t know.” I coolly replied.

“You look so familiar.”

“To be honest, Grandmother Meng is missing because she was helping me. But I’ve already located her. Sorry for all the troubles I’ve caused you.” I gave Suyang a bow. Then, I got up and gave Xialing a “we should leave” look.

“You want to leave again? Do you think I’ll let you leave when I know the reason why my granny is missing is because of you? You must remain within my field of vision until my grandma is back.”

“Believe me, she’ll come back soon!”

“Why should I trust you?” Suyang still wouldn’t let go. At this rate, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to control my emotions.

I lowered my head and avoided his eyes, “Please, just trust me once!”

“No! Until I’m certain my grandma is back, I won’t let you go!”

“Suyang!” I yelled. I made up my mind and decisively made eye contact with him, “Trust me. I know I may be a stranger to you, but please look me in the eye. You’ll trust me.”

For some reason, maybe I was superstitious; but I was quite certain that regardless of what I had turned into, Suyang will trust me after seeing the sincerity in my eyes.

“Strange. My intuition is telling me to trust you. But if you dare to lie to me, I’ll make sure you will die without your corpse.” Suyang finally released his grip on my arm.

“Just in case!” Suyang took out his phone and “ka cha” a photo of me before I could react.

“If you are really a criminal, I’ll take your picture to the police station and get them to arrest you!”

“Yes yes, whatever!” I grabbed Xialing and the two of us left.

“You’ve decided to leave?” Xialing leaned over and whispered.

“Yes, after hearing your suggestion, I think it’s the best solution. At least, I can save someone if I go.” I looked off into the distance and couldn’t help but feel depressed.

“Regardless of where you go, I’ll follow you!”

I was surprised to hear this from Xialing. It was touching but I softly refused, “I’ll be fine on my own. Why would I make you leave your native home as well?”

“You make it sound like you’re being sent away to serve a penal sentence.” She complained.

“Isn’t it true? I have to leave my native town and live elsewhere for the rest of my life.”

“Don’t think of it like that. Perhaps, you’ll realize you prefer living abroad after you begin your new life! Maybe your new life will be better than your current one!”

“True. My life is already such a mess. Could it get any worse? Look at me. I have been a woman for 26 years and now I’m a man!”

“Umm…a very hot man….” Xialing muttered.

Anson was very efficient. I could tell how badly he wanted me to disappear. Within a few hours, he already had the airfare, passport, visa, and everything prepared.

Xialing and I went to a nearby mall for three hours. Then, she directly took me to the airport. During the three hours, I took a last glimpse of my native land for the past 26 years.

“Although Anson says there will be someone waiting for you in United States, you should still have some sort of luggage. It would be very inconvenient if you don’t have anything. Why don’t you fetch your boarding pass while I go nearby to get you some items for daily use?”

“No, it’s fine. Ever since my soul was swapped, you’ve been a tremendous help. You’re not even related to me. I feel like I owe you a lot…”

“Who says we’re not related? If my brother was still alive, he would’ve probably beat Suyang to it! You would probably already be my sister-in-law!”

“You and your naughty mouth.” I rubbed her head. I knew Xialing liked intimate acts from me as I had Anson’s face.

I watched as Xialing diligently left. I stood in line and waited to get my boarding pass.
