Chapter 630 - 630: A Feeling of Gratification

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shen Mohen was thrilled, his voice hoarse and trembling. He also stared at Yue Huachen unblinkingly for fear he was hallucinating.

He knew what Yue Huachen had experienced and endured. Shen Mohen felt vengeful and wanted to help Yue Huachen, but his medical skills were limited, so he always felt guilty. Therefore, he sincerely hoped Yue Huachen could get better.

Yue Huachen looked at Shen Mohen and noticed the latter’s excitement. Yue Huachen was also in disbelief as he closed his eyes with his hands and opened them again.

When he was sure his vision had returned, he pinched himself and confirmed the pain was real. He became wide-eyed and excited but tried to suppress his tears, saying, “Yes, I can see again. I can finally see again.”

Shen Mohen slammed a fist into his other hand, exclaiming, “That’s great! Although I admire Miss Su l s medical skills, 1 never expect her to cure you in a single afternoon.”

His admiration for Su Binglan grew exponentially, making him desperate to become her disciple. However, he already had a teacher in the Legendary Medicine Valley.

Unbeknownst to Shen Mohen, his master wanted Su Binglan to take over as Shen Mohen’s master.

Meanwhile, Yue Huachen thought, ‘That young lady’s voice sounded so familiar to Princess Lan. I must see her face. Perhaps 1 imagine her as Princess Lan because the princess has never left my mind.

‘l never forgot the moment Princess Lan saved me when I was most desperate. She helped bury my mother and taught me many skills that helped me survive and live.

‘However, I betrayed Princess Lan’s trust and fell for a woman who hurt me. That woman made me suffer.’

Yue Huachen blamed himself for many things. He said softly, “l must thank

Niiss Su.”

Shen Mohen nodded. “Okay, I’ll take you to her. Oh, she invited us to stay for dinner tonight. I heard the Su family makes great food we can’t get elsewhere.

We’re in luck since we get to eat their food.”

The last time Shen Mohen came to Teng County was during the earthquake. He had tried a few of the local dishes and was stunned. He only realized later that Su Binglan was the one who developed those delicacies.

Therefore, he was even more excited to have dinner at the Su family’s house. He wondered what delicious delicacies he could try next.

He had once brought local food to the Legendary Medicine Valley, and his master only praised the food.

Shen Mohen habitually led Yue Huachen out of the guest room. This time, Yue

Huachen said, “Thank you, Mohen, but I can see where I’m going now, remember?”

Shen Mohen regained his senses and remembered that Yue Huachen could see everything around him and walk independently.

When the duo arrived at the main hall, Shen Mohen saw Shen Qiuhua busing herself in the kitchen. He did not know why, but Shen Qiuhua was the only person he saw in the crowded house.

‘Who is that woman? Why does she look so familiar?’

Shen Mohen even forgot to move and stopped in his tracks. He felt the need to say something but did not know what to say.

Shen Qiuhua was busy at the stove when she felt a strange sensation, so she turned to look toward the door. She saw Shen Mohen, and the latter blurted out, “Aunt Shen?!”

His sudden exclamation shocked both of them.

Shen Qiuhua wondered, ‘Why did he call me Aunt Shen?’

Shen Qiuhua looked highly similar to a portrait Shen Mohen’s father had hired someone to draw. His father wanted to make it easier for them to find Shen Qiuhua, so he found a professional artist who could accurately portray the younger Shen Qiuhua.

‘That woman looks similar to the portrait. She even looks similar to my father. Is she my Aunt Shen?!’

Shen Mohen’s mind was a mess, and he could not reason. Shen Qiuhua was just as stunned and trembled when she saw Shen Mohen.

‘He reminds me of a grown-up Shen Qiuhui. He looks just like his father.’ Images of Shen Qiuhua’s childhood flashed through her mind when she looked at Shen Mohen. She became teary-eyed, thinking, ‘Time has passed too quickly. Decades have passed in just a blink of an eye. I was still young then, but now I’m a grandmother.’

“You are?” Shen Qiuhua asked, her voice slightly choked.

Shen Mohen’s mind went blank, and he did not know what to say. He asked cautiously, “A-Are you my Aunt Shen? 1-1 1 m Shen Mohen, and my aunt’s name is Shen Qiuhua.”

Shen Qiuhua nodded. “Yes, I’m Shen Qiuhua, and I have a brother named Shen Qiuhui.”

Shen Mohen’s entire body shook, and he became too excited to speak. He wanted to say something, but his throat choked, and he could not make a sound.

When Shen Qiuhua approached him, he finally found his voice, “Aunt Shen, I finally found you.”

Shen Mohen’s eyes reddened, and he felt the urge to cry.

‘My father is the one who misses her and hasn’t seen her for a long time. M/hy am I the one who wants to cry? Is this what having a strong bond feels like?’ Shen Qiuhua looked at the youth who stooped a head taller than her. She felt like she was looking at the humble and careful little boy from her past. ‘My younger stepbrother’s son has grown so tall.’

Shen Qiuhua also choked up as she touched Shen Mohen’s hair. “l am your aunt, dear child.”

Since Shen Mohen was tall, he lowered his head to make it easier for Shen Qiuhua to ruffle his hair. Shen Qiuhua patted his shoulder and said, “It’s been so long. How’s your father?”

Shen Mohen wiped his tears. “It has. My father is well. He had internal injuries a few years ago, but I cured them all. He has been thinking about you, saying he wants to find you.”

Shen Qiuhua felt bitter. “Doesn’t he blame me for leaving?”

She did not take him with her when she left the Shen family. In hindsight, she feared her stepbrother would not survive in the family’s chaotic environment.

‘It’s good that Qiuhui has survived all these years. Shen Mohen has grown into a fine young man, too.’

Shen Mohen shook his head. “No, my father has never blamed you for anything, Aunt Shen. He said you took care of him when he was a child.

“Although you left a few people behind, they all took good care of my father.

He wouldn’t have survived the chaos if they hadn’t secretly protected him.”

Shen Qiuhua sighed. “Your father is an intelligent man who survived such terrible odds..
