Chapter 338: Chapter 338: Sorry for the Hatred
Eldest Young Master Yan was pleased, and all his ulterior motives were revealed in an instant.
Fortunately, the little boy was also delighted. Besides pouting and grumbling, "I wanted mommy to accompany me, not you!" he didn’t say anything else in disdain for him.
Since the little boy was already awake, as a mother Zhu Qianying naturally couldn’t stay in bed any longer. Within a few minutes, she was up and ready, heading downstairs.
"Good morning, Uncle Hai!"
Zhu Qianying didn’t sleep well last night. After all, it was her first overnight stay at the Yan family home in a long time. Even though she didn’t sleep in the master bedroom, her thoughts kept drifting back to the past involuntarily.
They say that people become especially vulnerable, yet also particularly clear-headed, at night.
Being in this space that faintly carried familiar scents, it was only natural for her to recall some old memories.
However, what she hadn’t expected was the myriad of minutiae in her memory, details she thought she had long forgotten, were vividly redrawn that night.
The once faded images were tinted with lively colors. The heartaches and joys of the past crawled back into her mind bit by bit, torturing her nerves and tearing at her rationality.
Luckily, her little boy was as restless in his sleep as usual, which distracted her from the torrents of her emotions. By the latter half of the night, perhaps she was tired, or perhaps her son had worn her out; she managed to fall asleep despite thinking she would be up all night.
"Ying’er, good morning! The Young Master is walking the dog in the backyard. Do you want to go and have a look?"
Zhu Qianying had never stayed over with her little boy here before, so she wasn’t as familiar with his routines as Uncle Hai.
"Alright, I’ll go look for him myself."
"Hmm, he’s most likely running eastwards along the palm grove with the puppy."
"Alright..."
As Zhu Qianying followed Uncle Hai’s directions towards the eastern garden in search of her baby boy and his precious puppy, she could have easily saved herself the trouble by calling out loudly a few times.
However, she thought it was interesting to find them in this slow and leisurely manner. She also saw it as a chance for a morning stroll while breathing in some fresh air.
She walked leisurely, stretching her body casually as the morning breeze brushed past her face. In her ears, apart from the faint chirping of birds, there was a rustling noise emitted by the wind sweeping through the palm leaves.
This year’s spring seemed to have come especially early. Or perhaps, L City, located in the south, always welcomes spring earlier than the rest of the places. The lawns on either side of the road have already adorned fresh green buds. Even the stark trees that had shed their leaves in the harsh winter behind the palm grove were now sprinkled with patches of green.
Then, she suddenly remembered. Wasn’t the season when she left similar to the current one?
So, it had been a full five years since she left!
Her steps slowed at the corner.
She remembered that a few days after her marriage, she was coerced into a morning run. Suddenly, in a fit of passion, she was pulled behind a large kapok tree for a long and passionate French kiss...
She thought she had completely forgotten about that incident. However, revisiting the old places triggered those supposedly forgotten, or rather, intentionally buried, memories. They were clearly etched in her mind again.\n
She lightly bit her lip. It was as if she could still feel the burning sensation from that passionate kiss, so vivid that it sent shivers down her spine.
She really shouldn’t have agreed to stay!
Zhu Qianying shook her head in frustration and deliberately pulled her gaze away from the kapok tree. She quickened her pace and jogged in the direction indicated by Uncle Hai.
Soon, she spotted the figures of a boy and a dog rounding a corner not far ahead.
The boy’s vibrant face was lovingly looking down at the dog, with little hands gently stroking the dog’s fur. The morning light spilled over them, casting a beautiful, dazzling golden edge. Behind them were their warm and charming shadows.
The picturesque scene made Zhu Qianying forget her previous frustrations and melancholy instantly.
She couldn’t help but feel grateful that she had brought her son back here. Because, at this moment, he looked so happy and content!
"Baby..."
The once-again-buoyant Zhu Qianying called towards the silhouette of her son. Then, she picked up her pace and ran towards the little boy, who had turned around and was looking at her with a surprised expression.
"Mommy, there’s a bird’s nest over there. The little birds are so noisy!"
Before Zhu Qianying could reach him, he anxiously pointed towards a direction.
It seemed that he planned to show Star the bird’s nest and listen to the noisy bird sounds.
"Really? Are they as noisy as my baby boy?"
Zhu Qianying finally reached her son’s side and pinched his cheek gently while grinning.
"Hey, no. Nanny says a noisy child is a cute child. Mommy, do you want a dull son?"
The little boy alluded to himself without covering up his arrogance. This kind of nearly cocky self-confidence seems to come directly from his own daddy.
Zhu Qianying was not sure if it was an illusion or her subconscious playing tricks, but before, she felt that her precious son merely had a face that’s identical to Eldest Young Master Yan. They didn’t have any other similarities.
However, every day since she got back, she was noticing more and more interesting ways in which the little boy was similar to Yan Han.
These resemblances could be in his temperament or his way of speaking or even in an occasional glance she caught. In any case, there were too many to enumerate.
"Hmm...actually, a calm and quiet son is also nice..." Zhu Qianying seemed to be deep in thought.
"No way! Nanny says her son used to be as cute as me. But then, he became dull, and it wasn’t cute at all!"
The little boy spoke convolutedly so, his ’nanny’s son’ was his own daddy. Why did he have to phrase it in such a roundabout way when he was talking about his daddy, Eldest Young Master Yan?
Zhu Qianying thought Eldest Young Master Yan needed to put in more effort and time to before he could win over his son’s heart completely.
She sympathized with Eldest Young Master Yan in her heart; meanwhile, she wondered how he would react if he knew that his majestic and splendid image, in his mother’s eyes, was synonymous with being dull. Would he puke?
It was even worse for the fathers who want to present a glorious and great image in front of their own son.
But all of Eldest Young Master Yan’s efforts were smashed to pieces by his mother’s one statement: "dull"! That must be quite bitter indeed.
Just a few minutes ago, Zhu Qianying was upset with Eldest Young Master Yan for his constant manipulation and scheming against her. However, now she didn’t hate him because she felt a little bit sorry for this pitiful being!
