Chapter 873: Can You Stay Tonight?
Despite the woman’s words being laced with teasing and jokey intent, the man not only didn’t take offense but instead paused and said, "Going now wouldn’t be too good, would it?"
"How would it not be good?"
The woman’s expression immediately fell.
"You know, he has never seen me from the time he was born until now. He doesn’t even know I exist. If I go to see him now, I’m afraid he won’t be able to control his emotions."
"He’s your son. Do fathers have to make appointments to see their sons now?" The woman scoffed.
"That’s not what I mean. I’m just considering the child’s feelings. Plus, you should be clearer about my identity and his. Until he has absolute strength, it’s better to see less of each other, after all... there are people above watching."
"Hmph! Afraid of them, my ass. I’m not someone to be trifled with either!"
The man suddenly pulled the woman into his arms and whispered, "Little Cherry, over these dozens of lifetimes and reincarnations, I’ve already seen through everything. Yet, the only thing I can’t let go of is you. Although our situation has improved, the Heavenly Realm still watches us like a tiger stalking its prey. We can no longer be as reckless as we were back then. No matter what, we must not show off our strengths rashly and must remain calm and steady, waiting for Mu Yun to grow stronger."
Seeing that the woman was no longer being stubborn, the man continued, "Right now, the child has regained his memories. All we need to do is quietly watch him grow."
"Quietly watch?" The woman snorted coldly. "No way, that bratty kid takes too long with things. Those daughters-in-law of his are not easy to find, even if you searched with a lantern. Plus, each of them has a twisted fate entwined with his. Just let him clear all that up in this lifetime!"
