Chapter 1069: The Words “Mother”

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Cai Qinyue felt a chill run down her back.

It appeared as though everything she did was under the watchful eye of Zhai Yunsheng.

When Cai Qinyue looked at the man in front of her, the chill rose from the bottom of her feet.

Zhai Yunsheng’s fingers habitually tapped the armrest of the sofa. This action made Cai Qinyue feel inexplicably nervous.

In fact, the fear made her legs go weak.

However, after a pause, Cai Qinyue thought of Lucy. She was doing this for Lucy. In other words, she was doing this for the Goodman family. She had no reason to be so afraid of Zhai Yunsheng.

When Wen Nuan heard Zhai Yunsheng’s words, she became furious and lost all of her composure.

“Cai Qinyue! How dare you do that? What has my daughter ever done to you? From the very beginning, you’ve always been hurting our family! I’m telling you right now that if you want to do something to our family, come and look for me! Are you listening?!”

If it weren’t for Jian Shuxing holding her back, Wen Nuan would have already pounced onto Cai Qinyue.

“A Nuan, let me handle it.”

Jian Shuxing was ready to deal with Cai Qinyue.

When Cai Qinyue realized that Wen Nuan and Jian Shuxing were mad, she began to panic.

The current situation was very unfavorable for her. If she didn’t leave right now, the couple was ready to fight her.

Her task today could not be accomplished. She had to go back and discuss this matter with Lucy to make changes to their previous plans.

“Okay okay. You guys have more people. I can’t fight you. I will leave now!”

Cai Qinyue said as she turned away.

After Cai Qinyue left the apartment, everything began to settle down.

Wen Nuan said with regret: “If I knew that she was going to do this, I would have been more ruthless in the past!”

Wen Nuan felt that she had been too kind to Cai Qinyue.

Jian Shuxing snarled through his teeth: “She deserves to just die!”

The two of them were still incredibly angry.

Then, Wen Nuan looked at Jian Yiling before she softly reassured her daughter: “Yiling, don’t be scared. This won’t happen again.”

Jian Shuxing agreed with his wife’s words: “Mhmm, Yiling, don’t worry about this. Ignore that witch’s words. She’s just jealous.”

“Mhmm,” Jian Yiling replied softly. Then, she lowered her eyes and after a long moment of silence, she said the word ‘mother’ with great difficulty.’

Although it was a simple word, it took a lot of effort from Jian Yiling to say it.

Wen Nuan was stunned.

She did not expect this.

Since that incident three years ago, she hadn’t heard her daughter call her by the word ‘mother’ again.

She knew that her daughter grew apart from her. However, she didn’t know how to change it.

And so, she and her husband could only try to help their daughter as much as possible.

Jian Shuxing and Wen Nuan were both surprised and happy.

Tears began to well in their eyes.

“I want to drink the soup that you made,” Jian Yiling said with great difficulty. Her words felt raw.

“Okay, okay. I will cook it for you tonight,” Wen Nuan promised.

Tears began to roll down her cheeks.

Ahh, she promised her mother-in-law to not shed tears. However, today, she couldn’t stop her tears from falling down.

Wen Nuan’s cooking skills weren’t great. Three years ago, she started to make soup. However, it was Jian Yunmo who mostly consumed this soup.

In order to not make his mother disappointed and prevent his sister from suffering, Jian Yunmo consumed the soup that was filled with the ‘love’ from his mother.
