Chapter 146 - Mother and Daughter

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Chen Lin’s actions once again touched the memories buried deep in her mind. Yu Yao saw the girl in the soft pink pajamas.

Her cheeks were buried in the pillow, and she was being hugged by a woman. There was a sweet smell in the woman’s embrace, and the smell seemed to make the little girl feel very at ease…

The woman’s hand gently patted the little girl’s back as she hummed a soft tune. In this dream-like scene, the little girl gradually closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Yu Yao knew that these were not her memories. She did not even know if these were real memories, or if the kidnapped girl had missed her mother every day for decades, so she had constructed a beautiful dream in her mind.

Be it her real memories or her illusory dreams, these did not belong to her. But Yu Yao had to admit that she had been affected by these memories. She completely accepted Chen Lin without any reluctance or awkwardness.

The mother-daughter pair completely threw the rest of the family to the back of their minds. The two of them had not seen each other for more than ten years and did not have any common hobbies, but they could talk about boring topics non-stop.

The Yu family’s father and sons sat by the dining table and watched as the mother and daughter walked downstairs arm in arm.

Yu Yao even reached out to let the light of the chandelier shine on her newly-done nails. “Mom, you have such good taste. The color you chose really suits me. It makes my skin look especially fair.”

Chen Lin held her daughter’s hand lovingly. “Choosing clothes, making hair, and nails are all skills. Mommy didn’t teach you in the past. Your brothers are all careless people and have never considered these details. They almost raised a good daughter of mine into punks like them…”

At this moment, the mother-daughter pair had already gone down the stairs. Their conversation was heard by the four people at the dining table. Yu Yao smiled shyly at her father and brothers and pulled Chen Lin to sit at the dining table.

Then she leaned over to Chen Lin’s side and said good things about her brothers. “My three brothers treat me quite well. It’s just that I don’t like to dress up too exquisitely. I always feel that it’s too much of a waste of time.”

The manicure just now had taken almost three hours. It was fine if she was dolled up occasionally, but if it was frequently done, she would find it troublesome.

Chen Lin looked at Yu Yao reproachfully. “When you were doing nails with Mommy just now, you liked them very much, didn’t you? You were just raised too roughly. In the future, Mommy will doll up our baby well…”

Yu Yao smiled embarrassedly, and her gaze involuntarily fell on the exquisite and beautiful nails that had just been painted.

As a girl, how could Yu Yao not like this sparkly manicure? It was just that in her previous life, she had been a staff member of the national security department. There were requirements for her attire and style. At most, she could apply clear nail polish, so it was impossible for her to have such a cumbersome manicure…

In this lifetime, Yu Yao had only been thinking about going against that damned criminal organization and Yu Wan. How could she have the time to doll herself up?

Thinking of this, Yu Yao suddenly thought of something. She looked at Yu Hong and asked, “Dad, didn’t that person come by this morning? How was your discussion?”

She winked at Yu Hong and did not say Yu Wan’s name, afraid that she would agitate Chen Lin.

Yu Hong’s expression did not change at all as he said calmly, “I’ll leave this matter to Yu Heng. I’ll tell everyone once we finish dealing with it.”

Yu Jue, who had just returned in the afternoon, had a puzzled look on his face. He had no idea what had happened. He looked around and realized that everyone except his mother seemed to know what Yu Hong and Yu Yao were talking about.

Yu Jue was unwilling to be excluded. In the end, he went over to Yu Yao’s side and begged softly, “Yaoyao, what happened? You’re all so mysterious and only excluded me.. Am I not your favorite brother?”
