Unexpected Encounter:They Were Meant To Be Together

Chapter 6: Marry me

Xie Ming did not know how long she had been walking. All she could she think about was how her sister had accused her for things that she had not done. She loved her sister a lot. She had done everything that she could do for her.

....

Their mother had died when Xie Ming, Xie Yurin and Xie Yufan her younger brother were 11, 9 and 6 years old respectively.

Xie Ming clearly remembered the day when her mother was lying on the hospital bed taking her last breath," Xiao Ming" Her mother called her. Xie Ming quickly sat beside her mother and held her hand," Mother". Tears started rolling down her eyes.

"Xiao Ming your mother loves you and your sister and brother a lot. Mother does not have time. Promise mother that you will take care of your sister, brother and your father."

"No mother please don't leave us alone. What will we do without you?" Xie Ming tried her best to control her tears. " Don't cry child. Promise mother." Xie Ming pursed her lips and said," I promise mother. I promise."

Mother Xie turned towards her husband who was standing next to her," Chuang *cough cough* I *cough cough*".

" ssshh ssshhh don't take talk. Take some rest."

" I don't have time Chuang." Father Xie covered her mouth. His eyes were turning red,"Don't say that."

Mother Xie gave her husband a weak smile ,"Take good care of your children and yourself. I have and will always love you." She gently touched Father Xie's face and slowly closed her eyes.

Seeing her mother lay motionless on the bed Xie Ming tried to wake her up but she did not move. She was thankful that Yurin and Yufan were not here to witness such a scene. Few days ago Father Xie had sent them away to their aunts place because father Xie did not want them to witness such a scene at a very young age. Yurin did not want to go and had cried in front of Ming to tell father but she could not do anything.

As time passed by Xie Ming tried her best to fulfil her promise. She took care of her sister and brother.

Xie Ming always wanted to become a model but when she heard that her younger sister also wanted to become one,she dropped that idea and went to aboard for further studies.

......

Thinking about all this, Xie Ming could feel her heart rip apart. She started feeling useless. Not being able to bear the pain she decided to end this once and for all.

She then hailed a taxi.

After reaching her destination she got off from the taxi and started walking. She stopped when she reached the edge of the cliff.

She closed her eyes. Thinking about everything that had happened she was about to jump when suddenly a warm and strong arm grabbed her by her waist," Do you really think ending your life is going to help?"

Hearing a deep voice, Xie Ming opened her eyes.

"Instead of wasting your life like this why don't you do something productive with it."

"What do you mean" she asked.

"Marry me" he said.
