Chapter 4037: The Other Side 6
“It’s you!” Her eyes widened as she tried to get a better look at the child in front of her. Hastily, she wiped the corners of her eyes and forced back the tears. She couldn’t swallow the lump in her throat.
Yun Shishi hugged him tightly, as if she were afraid that in the next second, the boy would turn into a wisp of smoke and disappear from her sight!
The boy sighed in exasperation at that and gently stroked her hair. “Mommy still cries so much.”
“Is it really you, Youyou?” She pursed her lips together to stifle a sob. “Mommy isn’t dreaming, am I?”
Youyou looked at her with much fondness. “If Mommy is not quite awake yet, you could go back to bed and continue lying there. I’ll wake you up when dinner is ready.”
When she heard this, her tears started flowing. From this alone, she could almost conclude that the child in her arms was not Gong Fan, but Youyou… Only Youyou would speak to her in such an indulgent tone.
She was strangely moved. She hugged the boy tightly, speechless for a moment, because the moment she opened her mouth, only broken sobs escaped.
She had felt this way once before. She remembered when they were younger, one of Yun Na’s sisters visited and took her favorite doll without her consent.
When she came home from school, she couldn’t find the doll. She thought she’d misplaced it somehow, until the little girl came to the house to visit again. She looked on helplessly at the doll that the child held in her arms. Now she knew. She hadn’t misplaced it. This child had taken it. There and then, she said nothing, but after the girl was gone, she started crying.
Li Qin then chided Yun Na. It was only later that Yun Shishi learned, the girl had initially wanted Yun Na’s doll. Naturally, she couldn’t bear to part with her own toy, so she shoved Yun Shishi’s doll into her arms.
Yun Shishi was sad for a long time after that. Later on, during her birthday, Yun Yecheng secretly tucked a gift box under Yun Shishi’s bed. That night, when she went to bed, she found a note clipped to her diary. On it, Yun Yecheng wrote: A present for you under the bed.
She found a box under the bed and pulled it out. Opening it, she realized that her father had secretly bought her a doll behind Li Qin’s back. This doll was exactly the same as the one that had been stolen from her.
Holding this “lost and found” doll, she began to cry. She wasn’t sad or happy, but just strangely emotional. One could say that she had mixed feelings.
Now as she held Youyou, she had the same feeling.
The boy caressed her face and gently wiped away her tears with both hands. In spite of himself, his eyes reddened.
“Mommy, I’m sorry… I’ve kept you waiting…” As soon as he said it, his eyes turned even redder, but he was still smiling. Except that when he smiled, his eyes narrowed, and his tears spilled over.
Yun Shishi couldn’t stop her tears. No matter how he tried to wipe them away, they continued to flow, like a chain of pearls with its string cut. She did the same for him too, wiping his tears away.
As the mother and son pair wiped each other’s tears, they cried and laughed at the same time.
Little Yichen stood there, feeling both envious and relieved. Relieved that mother and son were finally reunited.
