Back For My Daughter-Chapter 3 - She Might Be Waiting

Meanwhile, as Ye Qian watched the children played with each other after some time they started walking towards him.

He asked, "What, have you guys done playing?"

"Yes, Big Brother we have finished playing. Mmm... it's that ..." Little Ming replied while hesitating.

"Just say it there is no need to hesitate." Ye Qian said seeing her acting like this.

"Big Brother, Little Qing's mother is suffering from some disease and she feels a lot of pain while doing normal work. Can you help Little Qing's mom? Please." Little Ming asked with a pleasing look.

"Sure, why not Little Ming's friend is my little sister as well, how can I not help her. And I don't want you people to be sad." He replied while standing up from the plain rock he was sitting on.

"Well show me the way, will you?" With a smile, he asked Little Qing who was standing beside Little Ming while patting her head.

"Ah yes, thanks a lot Big Brother." Little Qing replied with her eyes slightly moist.

"Oh, why are you crying, there is no need to cry, come here." He patted her head while caressing her cheeks to wipe away the tears.

"Yes, Big Brother." Little Qing replied while walking toward her house while being followed by Little Ming while Sen and Yufu went to their home.

"Here Big Brother." She brought them to a small, not go good looking house as the walls had cracked like the house was too old and not renovated.

"Yes, let's go." Ye Qian replied while not giving any thought to the shabby and almost broken house.

"Big Brother sit here, I will bring some water for you." She pointed towards two wooden chairs directing Little Ming and him to sit.

While the house looked on the verge of collapsing it was kept tidy and clean.

"Big Brother, Little Qing does all the cleaning in the house, as her mother is mostly ill." Little Ming said while Qing went to bring them water.

"Ohh, then when does her father come back from work?" He asked.

"Um her father died in an accident when she was only a year old and her mother then went to do the work on others field, about three to four months ago, she suddenly fell ill and from then on little Qing does some chores in other people houses and while they give her money even for a little work and sometimes even food to eat." She replied.

"Oh, what a poor child." Ye Qian thought while listening to Little Ming.

Meanwhile, Little Qing brought them water in two glasses.

After drinking it Ye Qian stood and said "Now let's see your mother."

"Yes, Big Brother." Little Qing said while leading to a room where a mat was placed on the floor with some bedsheets on them. With a lady sleeping on it and a thick blanket covering her and fruits, water placed beside her.

Ye Qian felt foul and dark energy surrounding the room which was mostly covering the lady.

Ye Qian asked, "Where did your mother work before she fell ill?"

"She worked on a field near some cemetery before she fell ill." Little Qing replied while adjusting the blanket on the lady.

While she adjusted the blanket. Ye Qian noticed the dark energy ran away from her when Little Qing went near.

Ye Qian was astonished when he saw Little Ming going near Little Qing.

Ye Qian suddenly extended his hand and stopped Little Ming from going near the lady.

"Big Brother?" Little Ming said with a questioning look.

"Don't go near Little Qing's mother." He said.

Little Qing asked Ye Qian seeing him stop Little Ming from coming near her mother "Is something wrong with my mother Big Brother?"

"Yes, she is being surrounded by evil spirits and ghosts." Ye Qian replied as she asked him.

"Ah..." Little Qing jumped due to fear.

"Don't worry they have no effect on you, now let me check her for now while you both stay outside the room." Ye Qian said to them.

"Yes." Both replied and went out like how a rabbit runs after seeing a tiger.

Meanwhile, Ye Qian went towards the lady and put his index finger on her glabella and started pouring Spirit Energy through his finger in her.

Suddenly wailing sounds started coming from the room as the two girls outside were frightened.

One by one the ghosts and evil spirits started to tear apart and dissipate due to the Pure Spirit Energy released by Ye Qian.

A few moments later the lady opened her trembling eyes and was confused by seeing a man beside her.

After a few seconds, she suddenly moved away by asking Ye Qian. "Who are you and what are you doing here?"

"I am Ye Qian, I am Little Qing's friend she asked me to come here to treat you, are you feeling good now?" Ye Qian asked seeing her sickly appearance changing to healthy wheat coloured, after she woke up.

As she was still in a daze Ye Qian called out the two little girls. "Little Qing and Little Ming you can come in now."

"Yes, Big Brother." Little Qing and Little Ming both come in while Little Qing ran in her mother's embrace seeing her awake once again and healthy.

"Oh, Little Qing don't cry mom has been bad to you forcing you to work while I sleep and take a rest." Little Qing's mother consoled her while wiping the tears off her cheeks.

Seeing the mother and daughter pair happy again Ye Qian suddenly had a thought in mind, 'Since it is 2021 it means I died nearly 5 years ago in this world meaning the 1000 years in Heavenly Realm equals a single year on Earth. Quiet fascinating. Ah.. that means my daughter will not be much older than Little Ming and Little Qing.'

While thinking of his daughter he had a calm smile on his face reminiscing that he was going to have a daughter about two months after his sudden death.

'Ah... I must leave soon; I can't be more late, I am already here.' He thought.

'And Mengmeng would also be waiting for me, I owe her too much and I have left her alone all by herself, I must leave today.'

"Cough... I think I must leave now." While turning towards the door he started walking with Little Ming.

"Sir, thanks a lot for helping me can you please tell me what illness I suffered so I will most likely not do the work." The lady asked.

While he did not look carefully before not that he saw her she was quite young and was a lot more beautiful compared to women at her age.

As he saw her, she felt him looking at her without blinking as she felt her cheeks burning. While she was a widow now, she was still a young lady. She still had a young heart.

"Mom, Big Brother said that you were surrounded by some evil spirits after working near the cemetery." Little Qing said to her mother while helping her to wake up.

"Ahh... what.. ghosts, sir can you please see if Little Qing is alright, I am worried about her. Please." As being a villager, she quickly believed in Little Qing's word, and she did not doubt as she herself felt that there were wailings around her while she slept.

"There is no problem with Little Qing, she has a Pure Spirit Body so the ghosts and evil spirits can't come near her that's why she was fine even after remaining by your side." Ye Qian said.

He convinced her that there was nothing wrong.

"Thanks a lot for saving us but we cannot give you anything." The lady replied while bowing but she didn't understand what body Ye Qian was talking about.

"That's not a problem you should take care of yourself and Little Qing, how about um.. no that won't do." Ye Qian replied with modesty while thinking of taking Little Qing as his disciple but he let go of the idea as it might be too much maybe another kind of help might be good.

"Yes." The lady replied. 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶

"Um, will you be staying here…" She suddenly asked.

"Ah no, I mean in the village. I mean are you from the village." She quickly corrected herself.

"Umm... No, I will be leaving today, I have to meet someone and might even leave in the noon." He said while thinking of a way to go to his house in Shenzhen.

"Big Brother don't leave Little Ming, you can stay with us in the house." Meanwhile, Little Ming poked him and urged him to stay.

He got on his knees and held Little Ming's hand in his and said "Don't worry Big Brother will definitely come regularly to meet you though, as I have to treat you right."

"Yes, Big Brother you have to come and meet Little Ming regularly or I will be mad at you and won't talk to you." Little Ming nudged him with a smile on her face.

He didn't know why but he formed a bonding with Little Ming after seeing her for the first time 'Maybe because she is just like Qing'er when she was also a cute little child. Ah, Qing'er you should recover yourself now that I will be away from your sight' while thinking of his youngest disciple he thought.'

"That's good to hear that you will come again." The lady suddenly mumbled.

"What?" Ye Qian could somewhat hear her words and asked.

"Um.. nothing." Not knowing why she thought of him this way, she stumbled and nearly fell.

Ye Qian suddenly extended his hand and held her by her waist from stopping her from falling.

She looked into his eyes and thought 'How handsome this man is.' She shook her head and straightened herself from his hold.

He coughed awkwardly and asked Little Ming "Little Ming let's go I have to make some preparations."

"Yes, Big Brother. I will ask mom to make her special rice pudding for you, she makes it very nice." Little Ming said while holding his hand and walking to the door.

The lady stood there with Little Qing in her embrace after seeing Ye Qian suddenly said in her subconsciousness "When you come here next time make sure to visit our house as well."

"Yes, I will sure visit you too." Not thinking much about it he replied while waving at Little Qing and going out of the house to Little Ming's House.

"Ah .. what did I ask him?" The lady said in a daze.

"Mom you told him to come to our house next time he comes to the village." Little Qing said.

"Mom he is nice isn't he, he even cured Little Ming, I hope he will come to our house next time." She said.

'Why was I expecting for him to visit me again?' Little Qing's mother asked herself.
