Chapter 299: Mommy loves you

Translator: _Min_ |

Gu Sis thoughts wandered, blurring the line between reality and imagination. Her gaze towards Song Ling grew more mesmerized by the moment.

Noticing Gu Sis intense stare, Song Lings face twisted into an expression of disgust. His voice, cold and distant, broke the spell, Weve arrived. Get out of the car.

Gu Dai, too, noticed the piercing look in Gu Sis eyes. Guessing her thoughts, she felt a sense of speechlessness. Shaking off her gaze, she was the first to step out of the car.

At the hospital, Gu Yins recovery was swift and remarkable, thanks to Gu Dais treatment and a tailored recuperation plan.

The doctors, witnessing her rapid improvement, couldnt help but marvel at the Legendary Doctors skills. They would have stayed by her side, if not for the fear of disturbing the young girls rest.

Upon seeing Gu Dai, Gu Yins face lit up, her voice soft and endearing, Cousin!

Gu Dai smiled gently in response.

At that moment, Gu Si swiftly moved from behind Gu Dai to the front, embracing Gu Yin tightly. Yinyin, Mommy missed you so much, she exclaimed with emotion.

Gu Yin, suddenly enveloped in the embrace, looked confused, her eyes seeking affirmation from Gu Dai, Mommy?

Gu Dai nodded, confirming, Yes.

Gu Si, taken aback by Gu Yins disbelief, flashed a dark look but maintained a tearful voice, Yes, its me, your mom. Im sorry for being so busy with business abroad all these years. I neglected you, not even realizing how badly your father was treating you at home.

Realizing the truth, Gu Yins eyes welled up. She held Gu Si tightly, her voice m.u.f.fled, Mommy, did you come back just because I was bullied?

Gu Si nodded, Yes, when I learned you were hurt, my heart ached. I couldnt focus on work and took the earliest flight back.

Hearing this, Gu Yins tears flowed more freely.

Gu Si continued, Yinyin, Mommy really loves you. It was only due to work that I had to leave you with your dad. If I had known earlier, I would have taken you abroad with me long ago.

Gu Yin, in disbelief, murmured, Mommy, you do love me I always thought you didnt.

Gu Si gently patted her back, Theres no parent in this world who doesnt love their child. Of course, I love you. And I came back to protect you.

Immersed in a newfound sense of happiness, Gu Yin looked at her mother, Thank you, Mommy.

Gu Si inquired softly about her daughters recovery, How are you feeling, Yinyin? Does it hurt?

Gu Yin shook her head, obediently replying, No, it doesnt hurt. The nurses say Ill recover soon.

Relieved, Gu Si responded, Thats good.

The mother and daughter continued their conversation with smiles.

Gu Dai stood at a distance, silently observing their interaction.

After a few minutes, Gu Si glanced at her phone. She rubbed Gu Yins head with a sense of regret, Yinyin, Mommy has work to attend to. I cant stay. Be good in the hospital and listen to your cousin, okay?

Gu Yin, feeling a tinge of sadness but uplifted by her mothers words, smiled, I understand. Ill be good and wont trouble cousin.

Gu Si nodded with a smile, stood up, and picked up her bag. Turning to Gu Dai, she said, Daidai, Im grateful to have you. Without you, I wouldnt know what to do.

After a perfunctory expression of grat.i.tude, Gu Si did not forget to address Gu Yin before leaving, Yinyin, Mommy has to go now. Dont be sad. Once Im done with my busy schedule, Ill come to see you more often.

Gu Yin obediently responded, Okay.

Once Gu Yin acknowledged her, Gu Si hurriedly left the hospital room.

As soon as she stepped out, the tender smile on her face vanished, replaced by a smirk of self-satisfaction.

Children are so easily deceived, she thought. A few soft words and they believe everything. Leaving Gu Yin with Gu Dai was the right choice. In the future, I can extract information about Gu Dai from Gu Yin. Dealing with Gu Dai will be a piece of cake..
