This mother-in-law is so generous
Wei Jia suddenly raised his head and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong. I will definitely investigate what happened after I left that day."
While speaking, Wei Jia dared not look Yu Mu in the eyes, obviously filled with guilt.
Yu Mu did not speak, cleared the tears from her eyes, nodded indifferently, and turned to leave.
Ye Chen also followed, leaving only Wei Jia kneeling on the ground in a daze.
On the way.
Yu Mu stroked Jiamu's head, "Jiamu, don't blame your father. Your father is a very good person."
"Mm!" Jiamu nodded sensibly and said, "I know, I don't blame him. My father is a very good person, I understand that in my heart."
Yu Mu smiled gently.
Ye Chen didn't expect Yu Mu to have such a situation. It seemed that among monsters, it was similar to humans, with families and kinship.
"Ye Chen, thank you very much this time. If it weren't for you, we might have been truly finished."
Yu Mu looked at Ye Chen and said gratefully.
Ye Chen waved his hand and smiled, "It's nothing, these are all things I should do. But Senior Yu Mu, why didn't you tell Wei Jia earlier?"
If Wei Jia had been told earlier, perhaps this wouldn't have happened.
Yu Mu smiled bitterly, "I couldn't. Wei Jia is naturally suspicious. If I had told him at that time, he would have thought I was making things up to get him to let me go."
Ye Chen nodded. Such a thing could indeed happen.
Returning to Yu Mu's residence, Yu Mu lay on the rocking chair, feeling somewhat physically and mentally exhausted.
An LV87 expert, encountering such a thing, also felt very uncomfortable in her heart.
Jiamu sat beside Yu Mu, leaning against her, quietly accompanying her.
After a long time, Yu Mu suddenly said, "Jiamu, didn't you say you always wanted to go out and see with Ye Chen?"
Jiamu suddenly raised her head, nodded, and hummed.
"Then you can go out and see with Ye Chen this time."
"But Mom, what will you do if I leave?" Jiamu hugged Yu Mu's arm, saying with great reluctance.
Yu Mu stroked Jiamu's head and said dotingly, "What could happen to Mom here? You're grown up now, and it's time for you to go out and see. Actually, the outside world is quite wonderful. You should go out and see."
Jiamu nodded and hummed, "Then Mom, you have to take good care of yourself here."
"Mm, don't worry. You go out and play for a while. I want to have a private word with your Chen Ge."
Jiamu nodded sensibly and walked out.
Whew!
Yu Mu let out a long breath, looked at Ye Chen, and smiled, "Ye Chen, I truly didn't misjudge you. I didn't expect you to actually come. I thought you would be scared."
"Scared? There's nothing to be scared of," Ye Chen said with a smile.
Haha!
Yu Mu smiled, "If it were an ordinary person, hearing an LV87 expert ask for help, wouldn't they be scared to death? I didn't expect you to not be afraid and actually come. To be honest, you've really impressed me."
Ye Chen cupped his hands, "Thank you for the compliment, Senior Yu Mu."
Alas, Yu Mu sighed and lay on the chair, looking at the sky.
There was nothing in the sky, just lush leaves, with sunlight shining down.
The weather in December was already starting to get cooler.
The sunlight shone on his face, feeling a warmth.
"Ye Chen, you should know that Jiamu likes you," Yu Mu suddenly spoke.
Ye Chen was stunned, not knowing why Yu Mu was saying this.
"There's no helping it, a daughter grown up won't stay. Jiamu is very much like me, both stubborn. Once she recognizes someone, that's for life. Before, I didn't let Jiamu interact with other genders because I was afraid she'd meet bad people. But no matter how well she was protected, she still met you. Perhaps this is fate. All races know that our Holy Wood Clan has pure Yin Wood Qi. Obtaining our pure Yin Wood Qi will greatly enhance one's body and talent.
So they will try every means to get close to us. But you are human and don't know this point. Plus, with this incident, I'm at ease. I'm at ease entrusting Jiamu to you."
Yu Mu spoke as if to herself.
"But, Senior Yu Mu..."
Before Ye Chen could finish, Yu Mu suddenly got up and said, "What? You don't like my Jiamu?"
Ye Chen quickly waved his hand and said, "No, that's not what I mean. Jiamu is beautiful, gentle, and understanding. How could I not like her? It's just that, actually, I already have people by my side, and more than one."
Ye Chen said somewhat awkwardly.
Hearing this, Yu Mu chuckled, "I thought it was something else! It's just this? It's nothing, what's wrong with that? It's normal for an excellent man to have three wives and four concubines. In our world, this is a very common thing. I don't mind."
Ye Chen was completely speechless. This mother-in-law was too generous.
"But if you dare to make my Jiamu angry or let her suffer, I will definitely castrate you."
Yu Mu suddenly changed her tone, abandoning her previous gentleness, and threatened.
Ye Chen nodded repeatedly.
This mother-in-law was not only generous but also very volatile.
"Oh, right, I have the Wood Saint Palace here. If you have good friends who have wood attributes, you can bring them over."
"Okay, thank you, Senior Yu Mu."
Yu Mu called out to the outside, "Jiamu, come back."
Jiamu quickly ran back, looking at Yu Mu and Ye Chen somewhat nervously.
Yu Mu got up and took Jiamu's hand, saying gently, "Alright, go with Ye Chen. Be good outside, work hard, and strive to become stronger soon."
"Mm, I understand, Mom. You also have to take good care of yourself."
Ye Chen waited by the side.
A mother and daughter's farewell naturally involved a private whisper.
After a long time, Jiamu, with red eyes, came to Ye Chen's side: "Chen Ge, let's go."
Cupping his hands to Yu Mu in farewell, Ye Chen took Jiamu and left.
At first, Jiamu was still a bit downcast. It was her first time leaving her mother's side, so Jiamu was naturally a little reluctant.
But when they left the foggy area and came outside, Jiamu's mood suddenly brightened.
"Wow! Chen Ge, the outside world is so big and beautiful! Look, there's a continuous high mountain, and over there, such a long river!"
Jiamu would exclaim in surprise at anything she hadn't seen before.
"Chen Ge, what is that!"
Jiamu pointed at a tall building, asking with a curious expression.
"That's where we humans live, commonly called houses, also known as tall buildings," Ye Chen explained to Jiamu.
Jiamu nodded and hummed, having completely turned into a curious baby, asking Ye Chen all sorts of questions.
Ye Chen also explained each one.
"Jiamu, I have many friends. Do you want to go see them?"
Ye Chen looked at Jiamu and asked. Ye Chen still had some of his own matters to deal with and couldn't take Jiamu with him every day, so he planned to let Jiamu stay in Z City first to get used to human life. He originally thought Jiamu would be disappointed.
Unexpectedly, Jiamu excitedly shouted, "Okay! I also want to meet many friends, Chen Ge, please take me!"
