Chapter 293: His Memories

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation   Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Under Bai Lin’s light singing, Yan Ruffs thoughts gradually returned to his childhood.

He was not the only son of the Yan Family.

In other words, the Yan Family did not need a son or a daughter but an extremely outstanding heir who could push the family to the next level.

His father was a very incompetent person, a son abandoned by his grandfather. However, his ambition was higher than the sky, and Yan Ruo grew up being beaten and scolded.

As for his mother, she was more like his father’s servant most of the time although she was called his mother. She always maintained a polite and distant attitude toward him.

Yan Ruo had always thought that the relationship between a husband and wife and a mother and son should be like this.

It only changed when he was brought to the Yan Family’s gathering at five years old.

“Baby, run slower, mommy can’t catch up to you!” A young and beautiful woman in high heels jogged to catch up with the child who was laughing and running.

“Then I’ve caught mommy!” the child turned around and shouted. Then, he threw threw himself into the woman’s arms, and the mother and son both giggled.

Little Yan Ruo was very surprised. He realized that a child could be called “baby” and a mother could also be called “mommy”.

During the meal, he found out that it was his youngest uncle’s wife and child. The family of three did not inherit any of the Yan Family’s assets, but his grandfather unexpectedly liked this “good-for-nothing” son.

Halfway through the meal, his uncle’s son was taken away by his mother to rest.

“He’s just a kid, he needs more sleep. He also likes to sleep in at home. Once, he slept for 11 hours when he was too tired from playing,” his mother explained to everyone with a smile, then carried her tired son to the lounge. At that time, Yan Ruo was once again surprised. He was asked by his father to only sleep for seven hours a day, and he could not rest until it was time to sleep.

Sleeping in? He had never heard of this term.

Yan Ruo sneaked away from the dining table and went in the direction that the mother and son had left in.

“Little baby, grow taller…” the mother was singing.

“Auntie,” Yan Ruo stood at the door and called out.

“Ah, it’s little Yan Ruo. Are you tired and want to rest too?” she smiled gently and asked Yan Ruo as she patted the back of the child in her arms.

Yan Ruo stood at the door and shook his head.

“It’s okay. Come to auntie?” She waved at Yan Ruo.

Yan Ruo subconsciously took a step forward.

“Yan Ruo.” His father’s cold voice came. “Who allowed you to leave the banquet on your own?”

He could not remember what happened after that day. He only remembered that after he went back, he tried to call his mother “mommy”, but all he got was his mother’s frightened expression and her back view running away in a hurry.

As Yan Ruo read more books, he began to understand what a normal mother and son relationship was like. He also knew that the song was a lullaby, a song specially sung to coax children. He also knew what it meant to sleep in.

Yan Ruo was not rebellious at all. He strictly followed the path that his father had set for him, and his excellence had even exceeded his father’s imagination.

Very quickly, the responsibility of educating and taking care of Yan Ruo was passed to his grandmother.

At that time, the head of the Yan Family, his grandfather, had already passed away. Elder Mrs. Yan’s actions undoubtedly meant that she wanted Yan Ruo to become the next successor.

Just like that, Yan Ruo walked his way through life. He did not deliberately avoid those pleasant things, especially after he entered the entertainment industry. He had played the roles of a son, a father, and many more with happy families before too.

However, he still did not get the gentleness that he had heard from his aunt’s singing voice.

“The people faraway…” Bai Lin’s voice was still lingering in Yan Ruffs ears.

He came back to his senses. His body was no longer stiff, and his hands were no longer trembling.

Of course, Bai Lin could also feel Yan Ruffs relaxation, but she continued to sing the song that was slightly out of tune, and her hands did not move away from his back.

“Xiao Lin.” Yan Ruo stroked Bai Lin’s hair. “Thank you.”

He hoped that she would continue to hug him like this. He was really fond of her embrace.

After taking two deep breaths, Yan Ruo let go and put some distance between him and Bai Lin.

He still did not dare to indulge himself..
