CEO's Dear Wife-Chapter 885: HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN?
Hua Mei was indulged by presents and no one ever scolded her. She was so pampered that she never tried to understand others and always thought that everything was at her mercy. As a result, when she grew up, she became vicious and selfish. He had to get anything she wanted. Even if it was someone else's man or someone else's movie role. And she would do anything to get them.
That's why Mu Lan promised to herself that she would teach her children properly what was wrong and what was right.
"Ah, I didn't mean that way…" Only then Osiris realized her worries. He couldn't say anything anymore.
Her words were true. Children were cute and precious and they should be loved but it didn't mean that they should be pampered to the point that they wouldn't care about others.
If their attitude spoiled the children and harmed them, later on, there was no way to fix it. It would only bring grief to the family.
Maybe Mu Lan was thinking way too far, or maybe she was being paranoid. But others didn't have the right to say anything about it since she was the one who painstakingly gave birth to four children. She had every right to worry about her children and make decisions for them as long as the kids were under eighteen.
Certainly, Mu Lan knew that it was easy to be a mother from the moment she knew that she was pregnant. And then when she gave birth, she felt that her life force was being sucked up. She was very grateful to her husband and others for taking care of her sons. That's why she didn't talk back at Carlo. No matter what others said, she would still be strict to her sons if they misbehave.
Mu Liang patted her right shoulder. "You are right. Let's go."
Before they left, Mu Lan used her wind power to tidy up the room. Osiris sighed in relief and went back to sleep.
On the way, the couple met Luo Yicheng. Lou Yicheng halted and said, "Xiao Lan, I've been looking for you."
Mu Lan already calmed down. "What is it?"
"Come with me for a second." Saying that Luo Yicheng turned around and walked away.
Mu Lan followed after him before telling Mu Liang, "You go first."
Luo Yicheng went to the fourth floor. Mu Lan asked from behind, "Where are we going?"
"You will see." He answered her curtly. Knowing that she won't get an answer, she stopped asking.
Lou Yicheng took her to a small guest room. He stood in front of the room and told her, "You enter first."
Feeling a little suspicious, she twisted the doorknob and opened the door. She went inside and saw a woman was standing facing her back at Mu Lan. Luo Yicheng closed the door from behind without a sound.
Mu Lan had a strange feeling in her heart. This woman's back felt too familiar. Feeling uncomfortable, she cleared her throat nervously.
The woman turned to look at her. She was surprised to see a person who looked exactly like her. That woman's lips trembled and her eyes brimmed with tears. "Lanie…" She called out in a shaky voice.
Mu Lan's whole body trembled. "M-mommy!"
Only she knew how hard it was for her not to go out to her mother and to be embraced by that warm body. She was so little and her aunt was so vicious. She often cried in secret and craved for mother's love.
However, she appeased herself by thinking about what her father wrote in the diary. He said that he left to protect his little Lanie, his wife and their unborn son and his little Lanie also had to do it to keep her mother and unborn brother safe. She had to do it so that one day they could get together once again and become a happy family.
When she was starved, she wanted to eat her mother's cooking, when she saw how her cousin was being loved, she thought of the time when her father and mother loved her and she wanted to escape from her aunt's house and wished to meet her mother, even for a glance. Even after she was taken to Japan, she repeatedly thought of her parents. She thought that it was another game. If this game was over, then her papa and mommy would come to her.
When she became a part of The Cobra, she hardened her feelings after coming back to China. She wished she could take a quick look at her mother and then never return until it was the right time to do so. But she couldn't. her mother moved away with her little brother. She was in despair but recovered quickly thinking that they would be able to meet soon if she became more powerful.
Even when she was about to die in Italy after being chased by those gangsters, the last thing she thought about her small, warm family. She bid goodbye to her parents and asked for forgiveness that she wouldn't be able to meet them in the future. She almost prepared to face them in heaven.
Look how time flew. It had been twenty-four years. Her waiting had ended at last. There was her mother she loved and she craved her love.
Mu Lan ran towards her mother at a frightening speed and fulfilled her wish. She embraced her mother and said, "Oh, mommy…" her voice quivered and tears rolled down to her cheeks. She cried silently as she buried her face on her mother's bosoms.
Zhuan Zhen tightly hugged her daughter. It had been so long. Her little girl suffered so much to protect her. She used to think of herself as a failure mother and a wife. She was so intelligent but she couldn't keep her husband and daughter safe. She was brave in front of everyone but in her heart, she was in despair. She knew her sister well. So, she was worried about how her little Lanie would be treated.
