The Newlywed's Sweet Honey: Husband, Pamper Me to the Bone!

Chapter 504: You Don’t Want to See Me

Yan Sijue lifted his head: "Of course!"

"That’s good." Lan Yueru nodded and sighed softly, "That day, I heard two caretakers talking about the death of the Old Man from the Yan Family... It was like the fog suddenly lifted... He really died, didn’t he?"

"Yes."

"He finally died." Lan Yueru spoke quietly, her voice tinged with weariness, "My memories are still stuck in the Ghost Market... I originally wanted to die quietly, but unexpectedly that stubborn girl Xin saved me. Later, I just became muddled... But I still remember Xin, she often came to talk to me, though I don’t remember a word she said. But I know that girl was always by my side."

"Mom..." Yan Sijue closed his eyes, as if unable to bear it, "I’m sorry..."

"These days, when you’re not here, Xin told me everything you’ve done, she told me everything in detail." Lan Yueru’s voice was bitter, "How could I blame you? It was because I, as a mother, was too weak, abandoning you alone in that devouring place, just wanting to escape... You’re doing well now, really well..."

"He’s also dead, you need not fear anything anymore." Yan Sijue gripped her hand tightly, his voice hoarse, "Mom, from now on, I’m here, I can protect you!"

Lan Yueru slowly turned her head to look at him, earnestly studying his features, as if wanting to remember him deeply.

"Ah Jue, you also have his shadow, though not much, it’s enough to remind me of him. Actually, I’m not very keen to see you." Lan Yueru spoke calmly, "Ah Jue, you really don’t need me much, do you? Xin said you have a woman you deeply love and a son too. I’m very happy someone is with you."

Yan Sijue’s heart tightened, a bad premonition suddenly arising.

He gently called out, "Mom?"

Lan Yueru was silent for a while before speaking: "From now on, you don’t need to come see me every day."

Yan Sijue’s throat tightened, unable to suppress a bitter smile: "You don’t want to see me, is that it?"

"No." Lan Yueru lightly shook her head, "Ah Jue, I’m very tired. It’s not that I don’t love you, I just need some time. For me, these past decades have been a blank, and those past events... I still need time to settle them."

Yan Sijue’s eyes darkened.

"I know, I won’t pressure you."

"Also, don’t bring your wife over from now on." Lan Yueru continued, "I won’t interfere in your matters, but I don’t want to see her either."

Yan Sijue’s pupils contracted: "You mean Yiliang? Why?"

"She’s Mu Ning’s daughter, right?"

"Yes..." Yan Sijue’s face turned a bit pale, "How did you know?"

"She looks too much like her. Every time I think that woman Mu Ning is standing before me again, it’s like a nightmare replaying." Lan Yueru revealed a sense of hatred, "Since you like her so much, I won’t interfere. But if you truly still regard me as your mother, then don’t bring her in front of me!"

Yan Sijue suddenly realized something.

"Back then... what did Mu Ning do to you?"

Lan Yueru closed her eyes and shook her head: "I don’t want to talk about it, you should go."

"Mom..."

"Just go..." Lan Yueru’s voice was weary, "Ah Jue, no matter what, seeing you doing well now, I’m truly happy. Rest assured, I won’t do anything foolish again."
