249 Ah Yu Awakens
Little Ah Yu was in a daze and the terrifying woman in front of her was holding her neck.
The woman wanted to kill her.
“Mother… save me…” Little Ah Yu was extremely afraid. She ran everywhere, but the woman kept chasing after her.
Little Ah Yu was very sad. For some reason, she felt that the woman should not treat her like this.
“Mother, Ah Yu is so afraid!”
“Mother, where are you?”
Little Ah Yu shouted as she ran. Her throat was hoa.r.s.e from shouting, and her feet were tired from running.
She really could not run anymore and saw that the woman was about to reach her.
Suddenly, Little Ah Yu heard a familiar voice.
“Ah Yu’s guardian, are you there? Please save our Ah Yu!”
“Are you there? Please!”
“As long as you can save Ah Yu, you can take my life!”
“Ah Yu is still so young. She doesn’t know anything yet. Please save her!”
“She’s so kind and beautiful. She shouldn’t leave like this. If someone must die, bring me away instead!”
Little Ah Yu recognized this voice. It was from Liu Shi.
Her tired eyes suddenly opened.
She took a step forward.
“Mother?”
However, as soon as she said this, the woman who was originally chasing her suddenly froze on the spot.
Even all the terrifying things on her face retreated and she returned to her loving appearance.
“Ah Yu, Mother is here,” the woman said.
Little Ah Yu heard Liu Shi’s shout and saw the figure of the woman in front of her.
In an instant, it was as if a valve had opened a crack in her mind.
Then, a memory came.
Tears flowed down from the corners of Little Ah Yu’s eyes.
“Mother?” Little Ah Yu looked at the woman and subconsciously walked towards her.
The woman smiled even more kindly, like the best look in her memory.
“Ah Yu, Mother is here to pick you up. Good child, come home with Mother.”
The confusion in Little Ah Yu’s eyes slowly receded, and she even forgot to be afraid.
It was Mother.
It was her original Mother.
…It was her mother whom Ah Yu… had forgotten.
“Because Ah Yu forgot about Mother, Mother is angry? Mother, are you going to punish Ah Yu?” Little Ah Yu walked towards the woman step by step.
The woman smiled harmlessly.
At this moment, another voice sounded.
“Ah Yu, don’t be afraid. Mother is here, Mother is here!”
It was Liu Shi’s trembling voice.
Little Ah Yu stopped in her tracks.
There was confusion in her eyes.
Another mother.
The woman in front of her smiled sadly. “Ah Yu, I’m your mother. Have you forgotten? We’ve been together for a long, long time. Mother has always taken care of you…”
Little Ah Yu had forgotten it in the past, but she remembered it now.
She also remembered-
“Mother, have you recovered?” In her memory, her mother was always sickly. At that time, Little Ah Yu did not understand, but now that she recalled it, she knew that her mother had a very serious illness.
Sometimes, she would vomit blood. Sometimes, she would lie in bed for days without being able to get out of bed.
Little Ah Yu had no choice but to look for food herself. She even learned to grow vegetables and cook soup.
However, she was too young. The soup she made was sometimes undercooked or sometimes overcooked.
Rice however, was not something she could cook.
Thus, she liked steamed buns the most. When she was lucky, she could get a steamed bun.
It could even be shared with Mother for a day.
What happened after that?
“Ah Yu! Wake up! Don’t scare Mother!!” Liu Shi panicked. She was calling out for the guardian and shouting Ah Yu’s name desperately.
The witch who had been invited had already set up an incense table in the courtyard and was dancing around it.
She was muttering and holding paper money in her hand, her entire body trembling.
The w.a.n.g Family watched nervously.
The witch doctor said solemnly, “Don’t stop. You all have to shout her name. Her soul was captured by the evil ghost. If you don’t shout her name, she’ll be lost!”
The others from the w.a.n.g Family hurriedly called out to Ah Yu.
“Ah Yu, come back!”
“Ah Yu, don’t get lost.”
“Little Sister Ah Yu, Little Sister Ah Yu!”
“Ah Yu…”
Voices sounded one after another. They were either anxious, short, anxious, or worried.
It came from different mouths.
The face of the woman in front of Little Ah Yu gradually blurred, as if someone was pulling her.
Just as she was about to speak, she heard the w.a.n.g Family’s shout. Little Ah Yu suddenly turned her head.
She replied loudly, “Ah, I’m here!”
“Pfft-”
In the Xie Manor of the neighboring county in the east, the woman in black spat out another mouthful of black blood.
She held her chest and did not catch her breath for a long time.
“That child was indeed alive!” The woman in black was convinced.
Not only was she not dead, but her will was also very powerful. So much so that she could not interfere at all.
In the end, she even suffered a backlash.
What was going on?!
Wasn’t that child only four years old? Could it be that there was an expert guiding her behind the scenes?
Xie Dongzhu looked at the woman in black with dissatisfaction.
“Don’t tell me you failed again? Can you continue now?”
The woman in black said angrily, “The information you gave was wrong!”
If not for the fact that she did not have much strength now, she would have strangled Xie Dongzhu to death.
This wretched girl actually gave her the wrong information when she asked her for help! She almost killed her.
To be able to survive in the deep mountains after the snowstorm, it meant that the person who saved her was definitely not an ordinary person.
It was said that the child had been abandoned 300 miles away. That place was no longer in the territory of the Great Chang Kingdom and was close to another country.
That country had many hidden forces. In terms of power and attainments in this aspect, the Swimming Dragon Clan was one of them.
“Could it be that the Swimming Dragon Clan saved her?” The woman in black narrowed her eyes, her heart filled with hatred.
The group of fools from the Swimming Dragon Clan had to give her an explanation after this matter was over!
As soon as Little Ah Yu responded to the w.a.n.g Family’s shout, the young woman’s image suddenly disappeared, and Little Ah Yu’s vision turned from black to white.
She opened her eyes.
“Mother?” Little Ah Yu saw Liu Shi in front of her.
Liu Shi hugged Little Ah Yu.
“Ah Yu! You scared me!” The joy of regaining something she had lost filled Liu Shi’s heart with fear, and her chest kept feeling stuffy.
She was really afraid that Ah Yu would fall asleep permanently.
The w.a.n.g Family members all rushed into the room, with the brothers rushing at the front.
“Little Sister Ah Yu, are you alright? Are you feeling unwell?”
“What’s going on? Why did you suddenly faint?”
“Little Sister Ah Yu, is there anything you want to eat? I’ll buy it for you. I haven’t finished spending my allowance for this month!”
Little Ah Yu was in a daze and felt that she was fine.
She even said in confusion, “I’m fine. Why are you all looking at me?”
Hearing her relaxed and natural tone, everyone’s anxiety dissipated a little.
It seemed that the witch doctor was right. As long as the ghost aura dissipated, she would be fine.
Seeing that Ah Yu was fine, w.a.n.g Chuangui retracted the worry on his face and tidied his expression slightly. Then, he walked out to look for the witch doctor.
“Thank you for this. Ah Yu has already woken up. We’ll hold a banquet at home tonight as a way of thanking you. Please don’t refuse.” w.a.n.g Chuangui bowed to the witch doctor.
The Great Chang Nation did not completely prohibit such things. Therefore, w.a.n.g Chuangui did not discriminate against them.
On the other hand, the witch doctor was very confused.
What was going on? Could it be that her psychic ability had suddenly become stronger?
That shouldn’t be the case. She hadn’t done anything yet!
In any case, she should not scam… ahem, get more rewards.
