Releasing his mother, Feng Lin added with a warm smile, "Mother, I’m glad you found happiness. You deserve to be loved and I do love you. You will always be my mother."
Then, turning to He Xieyu, he said seriously, "Uncle He, I’m leaving my mother in your care. If you ever bully her, I will come and take her away. If that happens, I will make sure you will never see her again."
Hearing the little boy’s warning, He Xieyu was secretly amused. He didn’t believe a child could challenge him, but he still nodded and replied, "Don’t worry, I won’t let anyone bully my wife."
"Good."
"Alright, let’s not dwell on sad things anymore. Ah Yue, I have prepared your favorite braised fish, so let’s have lunch first," Grandma Feng said while wiping away the tears at the corners of her eyes.
Hearing her words, Ye Xinyue smiled softly and nodded, "Thank you, Mother."
Even though she was no longer married to Feng Chen, she still saw Grandpa Feng and Grandma Feng as her own parents and unwilling to call them aunt and uncle.
"Thank you, Aunt Feng," He Xieyu added politely.
Hearing this, Dong Huang quickly set down her bamboo basket and said, "Grandma, my mother made some snacks for you and Grandpa."
She then placed a three-layered bamboo basket on the table and continued, "Ah Lin and I already planned to gather mushrooms today, so we won’t stay for lunch."
"How can you go out to play without eating first?" Grandpa Feng asked with concern.
"Grandpa, I already ate at home, and my father packed some steamed buns for Ah Lin, so he won’t go hungry," Dong Huang replied.
"Grandpa, Grandma, if we don’t leave now, it will get dark before we finish. We will be back before sunset."
As soon as she finished speaking, she grabbed Feng Lin’s hand and pulled him toward the door.
Feng Lin didn’t resist and simply followed her lead. He had felt uncomfortable under his stepfather’s gaze and didn’t want to stay in the same room with him any longer. Going out with Dong Huang was the perfect escape. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
As he ran out, he didn’t turn back to look at his mother. For him, Dong Huang and his grandparents were the most important people in his life.
His mother was, at best, a blood relative. While there was affection, it could never compare to the deep bond he shared with his grandparents and Dong Huang.
Looking at her son’s back, Ye Xinyue felt that something very important had been lost and she couldn’t help but feel a stabbing pain in her heart.
After they left the Feng family’s house, Dong Huang and Feng Lin went to the mountain foothills near Yun Village.
When they arrived, there were already a lot of children and several young girls gathering mushrooms and wild vegetables. Your journey continues at freewebnovel
