Chapter 1044: She Was Truly Home

“Mother...” Yan Huan’s lips moved slightly, whereas Ye Shuyun extended her hand to caress Yan Huan’s short disheveled hair, “Alright. It’s good, it’s good that you’re back. Our family can finally be reunited.” At the same time, her three grandchildren could finally have their mother back.

Children without their mothers were like weeds by the road. Lu Yi did not have plans to remarry, but initially, she wanted to find another mother for the three children, then she realized no woman in the world was fit to become a mother to the three children. She was afraid that others might hurt his three grandchildren. She was the one who brought them up, hence she would not bear to see them suffer from any slight mistreatment.

Yan Huan walked in and stopped at the door. By the door was a pair of slippers and it was originally hers.

“It has always been here, we never throw it away,” Ye Shuyun turned away. She could not stop her tears from flowing as she wiped them away, grateful that the Lord had treated their Lu family so well. When Lu Yi was announced dead, he returned alive; when everyone thought Yan Huan was gone for good, she still returned home.

Yan Huan looked at the pair of slippers, unmoved.

Lu Yi walked over, bent down and placed the slippers in front of her.

“Lift up your feet.” Lu Yi instructed and Yan Huan followed.

When she came to her senses, her feet had been fitted with a pair of cotton slippers. It was as warm as the breeze in the spring, gently kissing her limbs, bringing the warmth of spring with it.

All the beings in the world began to recover as time passed by.

Just as she stepped into the house, three little round and robust figures rushed over to her.

“Mama, mama...”

The three children called for their mother, while their little legs ran quickly.

Yan Huan squatted down and caught all three of them.

Xunxun was the most precious of the lot as she hugged her mother’s neck, unwilling to let her mother leave. On the other hand, Lu Qi and Lu Guang had to let their sister be, even their mother’s embrace was reserved for her first. They were destined to prioritize and pamper their younger sister for the rest of their lives, for they had taken up all her nutrients in their mother’s womb. Hence, when their sister was born, she did not even weigh a kilo. The youngest suffered a lot before she was able to live as healthy as she was today.

Hence, this was something that the two elder brothers owed to their little sister. They owed her 10 months of time and this was to be repaid with the rest of their lives.

Yan Huan carried Xunxun, who held onto Yanhuan’s hair.

“Short short now.”

“Yes, it’s short now. Just like Xunxun’s hair.”

Yan Huan touched Xunxun’s short hair as well. Xunxun was still young, so she would not allow her to have long hair. Although Ye Shuyun would very much want to style her granddaughter’s hair, Xunxun disliked it when people touched her head, so how could she possibly let others comb her hair, let alone doing it daily? Hence, they had no choice but to cut it short. However, it was no big deal, for she was still young. When she grew older, she would understand the meaning of beauty.

She was but a child now, who only knew to eat and play, and of course, to look for her mother as well.

Not long after that, Lu Yi came home. As soon as he stepped into the house, Old Master Lu followed suit.

“Really, why are you always following me around?” Lu Jin mumbled. He did not mean it, but at that very moment, he could not find better words to express himself and hence, he just blurted it out.

Of course, his words had been inadvertently heard by Old Master Lu.

“What did you say about me just now?”

Old Master Lu’s eyes narrowed dangerously, “Tell me what you’ve said just now. Who were you referring to about always following you around? Are you cursing me to death right now?”

“No, no, father. I don’t mean it that way.”

Lu Jin explained hurriedly. He really did not mean it in that way, just that it was a moment of carelessness where he had used the wrong words. To think that he, Commander Lu, a god-like figure in front of his battalion, had to live like a coward in front of his father, in fear and trepidation, not daring to speak even in a slightly louder tone.

However, he had no choice for this man other than his own father, his biological father.

Old Master Lu let out a resounding huff and walked into the house. His head was covered in silver fox hair, making him look poised and sage-like, with the image of a hermit extracting himself from the worldly buzz. Adding up to the fact that he had always been practicing Tai Chi and calligraphy, his entire being radiated an energetic zest, making him look good for his age.

Of course, that was if he did not speak, because when he did, everything would be different.

Capable hermit my as*, he’s merely an old man with a bad temper.

Yan Huan stood up, whereas Xunxun was still hugging her legs. The other two kids held hands and let their mother interlocked with theirs.

“Oh, you’re back?” Old Master Lu squinted, unfazed by Yan Huan’s return. It seemed as though Yan Huan had just returned from a business trip, or she had just completed the filming of a movie, or as though it was her coming home like any other day. It was like she had never left for the entire one and a half year, nor once listed as a missing person where she could basically be considered dead.

“Xunxun, come over to your great-grandfather,” Old Master beckoned to his great-granddaughter. His face lighted up as though he was a brand new man. The cold frown he had just a moment ago was long gone like they were of another dimension.

Xunxun was well-behaved as she extended her hand out to Old Master Lu.

Old Master Lu hugged his great-granddaughter dotingly. He could not get enough of the little being. It was the same for Lu Jin, but he could only watch them impatiently, knowing that there was no room for him to hug her this time.

“Huanhuan’s back,” he turned his head back and smiled at Yan Huan. Although his tone sounded flat, it was obvious that he was heaving a sigh of relief.

Actually, they were all shocked, it would be a lie to say that they were not. However, all of them were used to surviving in rough tides and harsh winds, hence, they could not possibly be like others who would cry, make a fuss, scream and shout about.

Their reactions were pretty contained. Yet, amidst the subtlety, one could clearly see their care and love. It was unobvious and veiled, yet they would always place their family as the first priority in their hearts.

“Mama, Xunxun’s gone now,” said Xiao Guang to his mother as he snuggled into his mother’s hug. Yan Huan pulled her eldest son into her embrace. If it was not for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, she would truly want to hug both her sons and cry hard for once. Her children had all grown up, Xiao Qi and Xiao Guang knew to call her mummy and they could jump and run about already.

Regarding her return, Lu Yi had not told many people. The news only circulated within the family, even Lei Qingyi and Yi Ling were unaware of this. They would wait it out and see...

Yan Huan needed a rest, and the same for the others.

When night fell, Lu Yi brought Yan Huan back to their own place. Yan Huan was not in the pink of health at the moment; she was still too thin. They could not seem to nourish her no matter how, hence they decided to first start by replenishing her.
