The Dishonest Son and The ‘Ghost’ Doctor Mother – Chapter 66

The 15 million are ready

The sun was sinking on the horizon, Yu Qingluo, after tirelessly hurrying for so many days on her journey, fell dead asleep until the sky was dark. Then she finally lazily stretched her arms and legs.

Who knew that after she had barely opened her eyes she would see a small and soft body sleeping right next to her. She was startled, and her body swiftly sprang into a sitting position.

They hadn’t seen each other for more than half a month but the little guy seemed to have grown increasingly more soft and glutinous, his cheeks were delicate like the apples over the table.

Yu Qingluo had never been separated from him for such a long time and no matter how much she “mistreated” him on normal days, she still missed him quite a bit now.

Seeing that he was safe and sound and that he even looked a bit fatter than before, her heart that had been hanging finally felt at ease.

She let out a relieved sigh then put her arms around him and when she heard his mumbling in his sleep she couldn’t stop herself from laughing.

She stretched a hand to pinch his little face. His skin felt soft and slippery to the touch. Nannan was disturbed in his dreams by her pinching and waved his hands full of dissatisfaction, turning around, he continued sleeping.

“You brat, you are getting more and more courageous. Even if you knew that he was your father, you just had to go and follow him senselessly, not afraid of being sold by others.” Thinking of all the longing and worrying she went through these last days, Yu Qingluo felt very relieved inside, her actions also got fiercer.

After feeling pain, Nannan got up and angrily yelled: “Go away, go away! Or I’ll tell my mother and then we’ll see if you can keep doing that!”

Yu Qingluo sneered: “So you actually still remember this mother of yours.”

The chilly voice sounded into his ears. Nannan blinked twice and then jumped out of the bed, looking at the person behind him in horror.

H-how could this be?! Wasn’t he still in Uncle Ye’s carriage? How could he be sleeping next to his mother?

T-this, how can this be? He still wasn’t mentally prepared to face his mother yet. And now… now, he’s over!!

Yu Qingluo crossed her hands in front of her chest, then raised a brow to look at his face whose expression was filled with loss.

After a long while, she heard a ‘puft’ sound as the little guy suddenly knelt on the bed and started complaining with a face filled with snot and tears. “Mother, I missed you to death. You didn’t know! When I heard that Grandma Ge was in the Capital I couldn’t wait any longer, so I let uncle Ye bring me here. I know that Mother misses her a lot too, so I thought that you’d be extremely happy if I found her. Mother, isn’t Nannan very filial to you?”

Yu Qingluo snorted, not feeling soft-hearted in the slightest when seeing him cry. Her hands pinched on his cheeks with a bit more force as she smiled: “Eating well these days, aren’t we?”

“Oh, it wasn’t bad! Uncle Ye is pretty rich and let me eat whatever I wanted. Mother, you don’t know. I ate that bear paw that you didn’t take me to eat last time and the taste was… Eh, Mother! I was wrong!! What I meant was that Uncle Ye didn’t treat your precious son poorly. He knew that Nannan missed his Mother and grandma Ge greatly, and my appetite was bad so he went out of his way to feed me.”

Yu Qingluo couldn’t hold her face: “Your appetite bad? Why can I see that you are even fatter now then?”

“Eh, really? I’m fatter? This is not good. If I get fat then I won’t be able to find a wife. Mother, didn’t you say that you wanted to study some diet pills? Let me take them and then I’ll let uncle Ye bring me out to eat again… Mother, I was wrong! What I meant to say was… actually, I am this, this… right! I’m just swollen and it’s not my body mass that got bigger, mother.”

Nannan showed an expression filled with suffering and began pointing his fingers weakly. His mother was so bad, always changing the subject to something that makes him unable to hide the truth.

Yu Qingluo’s eyes bent into two crescent moons as she smiled: “So you know what it means to be swollen, huh?”

“Mother taught me well, it was all mother’s teachings.”

“I am not praising you.”

“…Oh.” Nannan hung his head down obediently, not daring to speak any further, keeping his lips pressed tightly. Mother’s tone right now was really terrible, it’s almost as if she’s preparing herself to slice all this fat out of his body. Just thinking about it made him feel pain, really painful pain!

Nannan, you have always seemed to be fearless of anything. But how could you be as scared as a little mouse in front of your mother?

“The one outside, have you heard enough standing there? If you have something to say, then say it, if you don’t, then get lost!” Yu Qingluo heard someone’s muffled laughter earlier, her face was dark. Although she wanted to settle some accounts with Nannan and remind him that he wasn’t allowed to walk near Ye Xiudu, she also understood that this was someone else’s place and she should pay attention to her words, so she wouldn’t be heard by others.

It’s no problem, the day is still long and she still had time to settle her debts with this little brat.

Shen Ying hurriedly adjusted the expression on his face then let out a light cough, raising his hand he knocked on the door very solemnly: “Miss Yu, it seems you are up. The Lord asked me to take a look and, if Miss Yu was awoken, he asked me to take you into the front hall for dinner.”

Yu Qingluo coldly smiled, she still had to settle some debts with Ye Xiudu and figure it all step by step.

She put Nannan down and asked him to put on his coat, and proceeded to get up to dress herself up shortly.

Nannan secretly let a relieved sigh, grateful for Shen Ying sudden appearance out of the door right on time and vowed to himself that he wouldn’t bully him in the future.

Half an hour later, the door to Yu Qingluo’s room was opened.

Shen Ying immediately smiled, getting rid of his slovenly appearance, he lowered his voice to say: “Miss Yu, please follow me.”

Yu Qingluo nodded and asked him: “Where’s Liuli?”

“Miss Jin is already at the Front Hall.” When Jin Liuli heard that the Lord was back, she immediately rushed to see him and what she said was, was… ‘Paying respects’? At that time, hearing that made him feel horrified and the expression in Jin Liuli’s eyes was also very strange.

However, it was fortunate that the Lord didn’t seem to pay much mind to it.

Yu Qingluo took Nannan’s small hand and walked slowly and steadily, ignoring Nannan’s eagerness to have a meal.

The table had already been filled with top-quality dishes from the Capital and when Nannan saw it, he threw Yu Qingluo’s hand away and rushed to the table directly. The little guy shocked the maid that was serving the dishes, she stared at the kid dazedly, unable to know whether she should pick him up and sit him or let him stare at the table filled with delicacies.

Fortunately, Shen Ying came right up and excused her before proceeding to move a stool for Yu Qingluo. With a smile, he said: “Miss Yu, seat here.”

Yu Qingluo looked right and left. Not seeing Jin Liuli nor Ye Xiudu she frowned and asked in a puzzled manner: “Where’s your Lord?”

“Oh my, Miss Yu seems to be very eager to see me.” The cold and familiar voice rang from the door and a purple robed Ye Xiudu came inside, walking with heavy steps.

“Of course. If I didn’t see you, then how could I collect my debts with you?” He kidnapped her son without even saying a word to her.

And more, don’t think that she isn’t aware that he and Nannan had been secretly following them since a few days ago. She isn’t a fool. Who else could deal with all of those people like that and disappear without a trace?

Ye Xiudu chuckled and nodded, sitting in the chair next to Nannan. As per habit, he put all of his favourite dishes on his bowl and then raised his head to say: “Indeed, the accounts should be settled. Miss Yu has suffered some bitterness in treating us so I already have asked someone to prepare all of the treatment fees we owe you.”
