Mu Huan looked at her silently for a while before saying, âFollow me up.â
Mu Huan brought Xue Yun to the guest room upstairs.
After Xue Yun sat down, she opened the thermos that she had brought over. âXiao Huan, I remember that when you were young, you loved to drink the red bean soup I made. Itâs rare for us to meet anymore, so today, I made some for you and brought it over. Come and try it. See if it still tastes like when you were young.â
Mu Huan looked at the red bean soup that she had poured out and her eyes darkened. âIf thereâs anything you need, just say it. Thereâs no need to be like this.â
âIn your heart, am I already someone who treats you well just for my own benefits?â Xue Yun looked up at her and said with reddened eyes, âXiao Huan, weâre mother and daughter... Why did things turn out this way...?â
Mu Huanâs eyes reddened as she looked at her.
Who would have thought that the person she once loved the most would end up like this with her?
âMom still remembers that when you were young, you would always tell me that the person you loved the most was me and that you would always love only Mom...â Although Xue Yun really didnât want to recall everything that had happened in the Mu family, she couldnât deny that she was happy when she was with the Mu family. Especially after Mu Huan became sensible, she was so obedient and cute. She would sweetly call her Mom every day. Among the many people who loved her, she would always say that she loved Mom the most and only wanted to be with her.
She could still remember clearly how proud and happy she was back then. She could also remember how adorable and beautiful her daughter was when she was young.
âXiao Huan, now... why have we become so unfamiliar...? Iâm your mother, the person you love the most in the world...â Had she forgotten that the person she loved the most was her mother?
Mu Huan did not speak. She did not know what to say. She did not want this to happen. She had never thought that she would be able to see her mother again. She also did not expect that one day, the relationship between her and her favorite mother would become like this.
But she sat opposite Xue Yun.
âXiao Huan, no matter how much Iâve changed, Iâll always be your mother. Iâll always love you in my heart. Although Iâm biased, Iâll always think of you no matter what. I want you to do better and be happier.â
With that, Xue Yun wiped her tears and passed the red bean soup to Mu Huan. âCome, Xiao Huan, try it.â
Mu Huan reached out to take it.
âTry it and see if it tastes the same as before.â Xue Yun looked at Mu Huan eagerly, hoping that she would drink it.
Under her expectant gaze, Mu Huan lowered her head and looked at the red bean soup in her hand.
Seeing that she wasnât drinking, Xue Yun asked, âWhatâs wrong? Donât you like red bean soup now?â
Mu Huan looked up at Xue Yun. âNo.â
âIf you still like it, hurry up and try it. Didnât you like the taste of it in the past? When you were young, you could drink a big bowl of it. Now that youâre older, you should be able to drink more.â
âYes, I can drink more now.â
âIf you like it, Iâll cook it for you from now on. Donât worry, I wonât ask you for anything in the future. I came here this time because I heard that you were ambushed and was worried about you. I came to visit you because I wanted to try to convince you to forgive Xiao Xiao...â
Xue Yun rambled on.
âHurry up and drink it. It wonât taste good if it gets cold.â
âOkay.â Mu Huan picked up the bowl, put it to her mouth, and took a sip.
After she finished drinking...
Xue Yun said, âDo you want more?â
âYes.â
Xue Yun poured another bowl for Mu Huan.
