Chapter 1034: They Really Missed You

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

“Mummy.” Holding his brother’s little hand, Lu Qi ran toward his mother. He bumped his little head into Yan Huan’s arms. All of them recognized their mother.

Yan Huan reached out and hugged the three children tightly while crying with constraint. She did not understand. How could they still recognize her when she looked like this?

They were like Lu Yi. He could still recognize her at a glance although she looked like a ghost.

She touched her elder son’s face and then her younger son’s face.

Finally, she lifted Lu Guang up.

“Did Xiao Guang fall down that time?”

Her voice did not change much. However, due to not speaking for a long time, the changes in her tone were unfamiliar to her.

Xiao Guang shook his little head and squeezed his tiny body into his mother’s arms with force.

“Mummy...”

Xiao Guang kept calling his mother. He just knew that this was his mother.

“Mummy.” Xunxun also pulled on her mother’s sleeve before climbing into her mother’s arms and sat still. Only Lu Qi stood aside and held his mouth flat. Yan Huan reached out for him and wrapped the three children in an embrace.

Although she was very thin and looked like a ghost, she could turn herself into a vengeful ghost for her own children. She would commit murder or arson for them.

Lu Yi took out the three children’s milk bottles from a bag. The bottles were exactly the same, only different in color. The pink one was Xunxun’s, the yellow one was Xiao Qi’s and the blue one was Xiao Guang’s.

The three had these colored bottles ever since they were young, only distinguished by colors.

Yan Huan raised her face and noticed the three milk bottles on the table. She was confused. Could it be that Lu Yi is going to let the three children stay in this cold place? The three children’s small cheeks were already freezing although they were flushed when they first came here.

They needed their mother.

Lu Yi took out some stuff from the bag again. Those were the children’s clothes.

Yan Huan only shook her head. She touched Xunxun’s little face, feeling sorry. Xunxun’s body is the weakest. What if she catches the flu?

“Isn’t the previous house better? There’s no one else there, just me. Don’t worry, I will not disturb you.”

Lu Yi discussed with her.

Yan Huan wanted to shake her head instinctively as she wanted to stay away from them as far as she could. They were from two different worlds, and there was no way that people from two different worlds could come together.

But, but...

She could not live without her three children. They were her children, her own kids, she gave birth to them with her own life at stake.

“Don’t worry, I will stay with the Lu family. I won’t go there, while the three children can stay there.”

Yan Huan wanted to say no but she only bit her lower lip. She bit on herself so hard that she injured herself. She could taste blood when she touched her wound with her tongue.

She nodded, finally giving in. She could bear not seeing anyone, even Lu Yi. However, she could not give up on her children. They were all so young, not even two years old. In fact, when they called her “mother”, she was grateful and thanked God for keeping her alive.

Even when she was in such a terrible state.

There was nothing much to pack there aside from the clothes, quilt, and others. Yan Huan did not think of moving any of the things there, not because she was abandoning this place but because she always thought that she would come back again.

She carried Xunxun while Xunxun played with her clothes, not detested at the slightest bit. Only a mother would never abandon her children, no matter how dirty they were, and only children would never abandon their mother, no matter how ugly she was.

Xiao Qi and Xiao Guang were carried by Lu Yi, his car still outside. There were three child safety seats at the back of the car. Since they had three children in their family, they had to prepare more than others.

The three were used to this kind of safety seat, so they did not resist. However, Xunxun turned her face and resisted when Lu Yi reached out his hand to carry her. Instead of going into the safety seat, she wanted her mother to hold her.

Xunxun had always been an obedient and reasonable child but she was a bit headstrong this time. She ignored her father and kept refusing to sit in the safety seat.

Yan Huan hugged Xunxun tighter and stared at Lu Yi defensively as if he would snatch Xunxun away.

Lu Yi puckered the corner of his lips lightly and opened the car door to let her get in.

Yan Huan turned around to look at the place where she lived. After hesitating for a while, she finally got into the car. It was warm inside and it also kept all the cold wind out.

The car was full of the scent of the three children’s milk. It smelled tender, like newly grown grass which would grow up bit by bit and become a giant tree one day.

Xunxun sat in her mother’s lap, her little hand not once letting go of her mother’s clothes. She kept pulling on her clothes and stuck her little face to her mother as if she was inhaling her scent. Even if she did not smell particularly pleasant, she was still her mother.

Yan Huan reached out to touch her little forehead and traced her little cheeks.

Xunxun smiled and giggled to her mother.

“Mummy, itchy.”

That was when Lu Yi realized when Xunxun started talking again, not for anything else, but because she found her mother. She lost her voice when her mother went missing and now that her mother was found, she started talking again.

Xunxun really loved her mother. Although she did not smell nice and had lost a ton of weight, she still loved her the most. Her eyes which were similar to her mother’s were full of admiration toward her.

The door opened, and Lu Yi carried his two sons in while Yan Huan held Xunxun as her daughter was currently rather short-tempered and only wanted to hold her mother. Although Yan Huan was thin, she was used to doing heavy labor in the village. Therefore, what changed the most this year was not only her face but also her stamina. Her breathing barely changed although she had been holding Xunxun for a long time.

Lu Yi placed his two sons down and opened another door. There were their small beds, one for each in the room. The three children were very well-behaved. Basically, they would not cause trouble as long as they were well-fed.

He then took out a pile of toys from a box that was aside and placed them on the ground. However, Lu Qi and Lu Guang did not even give the toys one look. They stayed by their mother’s side, one side each while pulling her clothes.

“They really missed you and they still remember you.” Lu Yi kept the toys back into the box again. No one would know the bitterness that was hidden between his eyes at the time.

Actually, he really missed her too.
