Chapter 203 Boss
This hand has delicate bones and is as white as solidified fat.
It is a female's hand.
There were thin calluses on his tiger's mouth, old marks left from holding knives and swords.
Mu Bai's actions of collecting animal hides came to an abrupt halt.
He followed the hand, peeled back the animal hide, and met a pair of eyes as black as ink.
The animal hide slid to the ground, and Mu Bai froze instantly.
He stared at her, mesmerized.
Countless memories flooded back like a tidal wave.
Her condescending mockery and insults.
She was determined to form a bond with him.
There are countless other moments, whether she was there or not, her image is already etched in my heart.
Childhood sweethearts.
Young couple.
Same roots and same race.
He recognized her at a glance.
I just don't dare to recognize it.
As the sun set, the last rays of its light disappeared into the mountain stream. The campfire was still lit, and he feared that what he would see was her lingering spirit.
Until she grasped his hand as he lifted the animal skin.
The warm touch felt like lightning, causing him to instinctively retreat.
That hand gripped even tighter.
It was scalding hot, and it held him tightly.
"What? Are you dumbfounded?"
Mu Yunyun gently tickled his palm, smiling sweetly.
"You slick rascal, let go of my father!"
Ji'er immediately rushed over.
His father was very striking in appearance.
On ordinary days, he is often provoked by those oily-skinned females.
Upon seeing this, he flew into a rage and was determined to make her pay.
"Ji'er!"
Mu Bai called out urgently.
"She is your mother!"
Ji'er's forward movement tensed up abruptly, and she stumbled and fell to the ground.
Just then, he felt himself being lifted into the air and held in a hug.
"I haven't seen my eldest son in two years, and he's grown so tall."
The embrace was soft and gentle, and the little female holding him had a tender look in her eyes.
Mother?
He has never had a mother since birth.
The father said, "My mother is dead. She was beaten to death by bad people."
Father also said that without Mother, he would have to shoulder the burden of the Snow Weasel clan.
He was forced to grow up and become sensible.
I've long since gotten used to life without my mother.
Even in dreams, I've never dreamed of it.
He wanted to dream of his mother.
He wanted to ask his mother if his obedience and good manners made her proud.
Did I disappoint her?
"What, you don't recognize me anymore?"
Mu Yunyun picked him up and weighed him in her arms; he was heavier and taller.
She looked at Mu Bai: "Why is the eldest so dark? He looked more like me when he was little."
Mu Bai watched her mutter to herself, and tears could no longer be held back.
Mu Yunyun panicked when she saw him crying.
"Why are you crying again?"
"You're a father now, so be careful."
"Alright, alright, you're not a grown-up anymore."
Mu Yunyun was at a loss.
Mu Bai is hard to soothe when she cries.
Every time he cries, he's like a wronged little wife, unable to stop.
Seeing his father like this, and then looking at the person holding him...
"Aunt..."
Is that your mother?
His father's reaction made him a little flustered.
"Eldest brother, you must persuade your father."
How did he persuade her?
Ji'er was stunned; he was held in his mother's arms and couldn't move.
But he didn't want to get down.
Mother's embrace is so gentle.
He wanted to stay a little longer, just a little while. After a little while, he would be sensible and comfort his father. He couldn't let his mother hold him like a little kid, because his younger siblings would definitely laugh at him if they saw it.
"These past two years, you..."
Mu Bai wanted to ask her where she had been for the past two years.
Why don't you come back?
He's worried for so long, and his heart has been dead for so long!
"It's a long story. I'll explain when everyone comes back."
