Chapter 132: Hide-and-Seek
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Chen Lin broke free from Yu Hong’s grip and ran forward unsteadily. “Baby, Mommy finally found you…”
Everyone was frightened by Chen Lin’s actions. How could Yu Yao still care about blushing at Qiao Lian? She subconsciously took large strides forward and caught Chen Lin’s arm just as she was about to fall.
Chen Lin did not realize that she had almost fallen. She took advantage of the situation and hugged Yu Yao.
Yu Yao was tall and could not be pulled into Chen Lin’s embrace. However, Chen Lin seemed to think that her daughter was still the same little baby that she could hug when she was missing.
Yu Yao had no choice but to squat down awkwardly and obediently let Chen Lin hug her.
She could feel Chen Lin’s tears falling onto her neck. Those tears were scorching hot, burning Yu Yao’s heart until it was sore and soft. A layer of moisture also welled up in her eyes.
“Mom…” she murmured subconsciously.
Chen Lin continuously rubbed Yu Yao’s thin back and muttered, “Baby, Mommy is here. Mommy has finally found you. Mommy will protect you in the future. You don’t have to be afraid of anything. Baby, Mommy misses you so much. You naughty child, why have you been hiding from Mommy for so long? Where did you hide? Mommy can’t find you no matter how hard I try…”
In the novel that recorded the development of this world in her previous life, the author had very limited descriptions of Yu Yao as a supporting actress. In the novel that contained millions of words, there was only one sentence that mentioned the reason why Yu Yao had gone missing when she was young—
In order to play hide-and-seek with her mother, Chen Lin, little Yu Yao ran outside the villa and was seen by a renovation team who was passing by the Yu family’s villa. The renovation team captain carried little Yu Yao away and then sold her to his adoptive parents.
At that time, Yu Wan said casually, “Yu Yao lost her life back then entirely because she deserved it. Who asked her to be naughty and disobedient? She left her own villa on her own accord and even caused Mommy to be too sad and develop a mental illness. Yu Yao, she’s a scourge that only knows how to cause trouble for others.”
When she was reading the book back then, Yu Yao did not think that there was anything wrong with these words. Compared to Yu Wan’s other indecent comments, the victim’s convictions were nothing.
However, Yu Yao now realized that the casual words spoken by the author and the protagonist might be the torture and pain that others would never be able to walk out of for the rest of their lives.
Chen Lin and her daughter’s game of hide-and-seek lasted for more than ten years. This game caused Yu Yao to lose her family, and it also caused Chen Lin to fall into the claws of her mental demons.
And now, this game was finally over.
Yu Yao’s eyes were filled with tears, but she still smiled. “Mom, you’re awesome. I hid so far away, but you still found me.”
Chen Lin smiled smugly. Although her face was also filled with tears, she exuded a happiness that she had not felt for more than ten years. “I told you long ago that as a mother, I can always find my daughter. No matter where Yaoyao is hiding, I will always find you.”
Yu Yao carefully wiped the tears from Chen Lin’s face and said with a smile, “Thank you, Mom. I hid for too long and even forgot the way home. If you’d given up on looking for me, I definitely wouldn’t have been able to go home.”
Chen Lin also helped wipe her daughter’s tears. Like every mother who was angry and yet still felt sorry for her naughty child, she said with a straight face, “Don’t play this game anymore in the future. Don’t hide anywhere that Mommy can’t find anymore, okay?”
Yu Yao nodded solemnly. “I won’t play hide and seek anymore. Mom, I promise you.”
Chen Lin’s expression became stiff. She broke into a smile and held Yu Yao’s hand. She turned around and said to Yu Hong, “Hubby, be our witness. In the future, you must take good care of Yaoyao and let her stay at home. You can’t let her be as naughty as before, okay?”
Yu Hong cleared his throat and suppressed the soreness in his throat.. He nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll take care of our child.”
