Chapter 324: Chapter 324 Mother En_1
You racked your brain but couldn’t figure it out, and whispered into the phone, "Is Zhao’er back?"
"No."
"Lele is pregnant with your child?"
"Screw off! My relationship with Lele is pure!"
You scratched your head: "In this world, apart from Lele having your child, what else could make you so excited... huh?"
Suddenly pausing, the volume of your voice, which had been suppressed, unexpectedly rose: "Don’t you fucking tell me it’s my grandma who’s come, eh?"
"Bingo! You guessed right, but it’s too late, your chance for a year’s worth of breakfast has flown away."
Upon hearing this, you didn’t say another word. You immediately picked up a dozen books from the table, swiftly shelved them, and then bolted toward the library’s exit, no longer caring about keeping quiet, you shouted, "Where are you now?"
"At Grandma’s place."
"Damn it! How would I know where your grandma’s place is?" You, having rushed out of the library, got into your car without even taking the time to buckle the seatbelt, slammed the gas pedal, and sped off.
"I’m talking about Grandma’s chain restaurant. Lele and I are treating Grandma. A friend of mine owns this place; it’s pretty clean."
"Send me the address to my phone, I’ll navigate there with the map."
Fifteen minutes later, you pushed open the doors of a private room only to find half of the Detective Agency’s people gathered there.
As you turned your head, you saw a face absent for a long time, full of the ravages of time yet with a smile just as kind as you remembered, only now you noticed more silver at her temples.
For no reason, your heart ached, and your eyes immediately moistened.
"Mother En."
You softly called out, leaning on Xiao Feng and sat next to Grandma.
Grandma extended her hands, covered with calluses and roughness, and gently caressed your cheek, smiling even more brilliantly: "My Little Yunyun has grown up, you look so different from the last time I saw you."
At that moment, you sat quietly next to Grandma like an obedient child, even your smile seemed so harmless.
Zong Wangyue then chimed in with a grin: "I finally understand why Madman keeps calling Boss ’Little Yunyun’; turns out he cribbed it from Grandma."
You glanced sideways at Zong Wangyue, then asked Grandma, "Mother En, how come you’re in Yuhang? It’s so tiring to travel from Putian all the way here by bus."
"It’s fine, Brother is with me. Mother En’s trip to the north was fully escorted by Brother. Plus, it’s only a few hours by high-speed train, and with me and Lele to keep Mother En company, time flies," Xiao Feng said, patting his chest with a beaming smile.
"No matter what, if you’re going to take Mother En out next time, you’ve got to tell me first. Just now, when you blurted out that line without any preamble, I thought something had happened. I ran several red lights on the way here!"
"Boss, running a few red lights isn’t a big deal. I have connections in the traffic police department, don’t worry about it," Xiao Feng reassured.
Seeing everyone getting along so well, Grandma laughed happily.
"It’s okay, it’s okay, Grandma just missed you and wanted to see you," Grandma said as she took your hand and gently patted the back of it with her callused palm, smiling, "Little Feng Feng told me you have a girlfriend now?"
"Pfft!"
Sitting to one side, Liao Yong suddenly sprayed out the drink he’d just sipped, drenching Zong Wangyue’s face.
Wiping his face, Zong Wangyue glared murderously at Liao Yong, "Black Bull, are you courting death?"
"Sorry, sorry, I choked on the phrase ’Little Feng Feng’ from Mother En."
"Ahem, let’s skip that nickname and have Mother En and Little Yunyun talk about the girlfriend thing instead," Xiao Feng quickly coughed to mask his embarrassment.
You didn’t avoid the topic, nor did you plan to.
"Mother En, I do have a girlfriend, but she’s not in the country right now. Once she’s back, I’ll bring her to Chaotian Village to see you."
Mother En nodded with a smile, asking, "Has your mother met her?"
"Yeah, she has, Mom’s test has been passed."
"That’s good, that’s good," Mother En said to you. "The reason I came up here this time is firstly to see you, and secondly to try to break the curse on you. Before your grandfather passed away, he told me that to remove the curse from you, we need to find a person. This person is about your age and also carries a vicious curse from their bloodline. Only by working together can you both break it."
You didn’t expect Mother En to come to Yuhang because of your curse. Touched, you responded with a smile, "Mother En, don’t worry, the curse on me has already been lifted."
At your words, Mother En was taken aback and paused in surprise, "Yun Yun, what did you just say?"
"Mother En, I said the curse on me has been lifted."
"Really?" Mother En’s face showed astonishment, then she placed her warm palm on your forehead.
"Mother En, I don’t have a fever... huh?"
You initially thought Mother En was checking your temperature with her hand, but as soon as her palm touched your forehead, you felt a powerful energy burst forth from between her brows!
At that moment, there was no avoidance!
When you thought your head would suffer a heavy blow, you instead felt a sensation unlike any other—a combination as if you had drunk an entire bottle of Super Cool Mint Water and a bowl of mustard at the same time, one ice cold and the other extremely stimulating. The two sensations intertwined, like countless fine needles incessantly pricking every nerve in your brain!
To the others watching, it was only an interval of two or three seconds, over in the blink of an eye; yet to you, it felt like a lifetime!
When you opened your eyes, you suddenly felt that the world seen through your eyes had somewhat changed, even though you couldn’t pinpoint how right away.
Turning to look at Mother En, her face still bore that kind expression, "Good child, it seems that the curse inside you has truly been broken, but some seal deep within your soul has also loosened slightly."
You looked at Mother En in amazement. In your understanding, she was just an ordinary rural woman; ever since your grandfather and father passed away, she never left the secluded Chaotian Village in the deep reaches of the Southwest Mountain Area of Putian.
Yet now, there seemed to be a mystical veil draped around Mother En, and you could clearly feel that the changes within you were triggered by her just now.
"Mother En, what is this seal deep within the soul that you mentioned?"
Mother En smiled, "It’s still too soon to tell you about that matter, wait until you intuitively understand another Magic Seal and encounter an unsolvable problem, then you can make another trip to Chaotian Village."
Note 1: ’Ma,’ pronounced with the fourth tone in Mandarin. In Minnan and Guangdong regions, it is used for addressing one’s grandmother or maternal grandmother.
