Chapter 1447 - Right in front of her (1/2)

Shangguan Wanrong was stunned. “Why do you have to run around? You’re so young, does your family feel at ease?”

Feng Jiu stopped turning over the pheasant and looked up at her with a smile. “I’m here to look for my mother. Besides, I can protect myself well.”

“Looking for your mother?” She was surprised. “Have you found her?”

“Yes, I found her. She’s at the sect.” Feng Jiu answered, looking at her.

Seeing the smile in the boy’s limpid eyes, Shangguan Wanrong had a sudden and inexplicable palpitation in her heart. She always felt that the boy spoke with deep meaning and obscure, as if shrouded with a layer of gauze, making it impossible for her to see clearly.

“Then, does your mother know you’re looking for her? Does she recognize you since you are in the same sect?” Perhaps it was because the subject had struck a chord with her, she couldn’t help but ask again.

Feng Jiu smiled with her eyes narrowed. “My mother must have thought that I’m at home. My home is far away from here. She wouldn’t expect that I would come here. Besides, she left when I was very young. It’s normal not to recognize me.”

“Why did she leave you?” She asked, looking like she was in a daze.

“My mother’s family didn’t allow her to be with my father, so they arrested her and locked her up. My father raised me alone. Sometimes my father would hold my mother’s things and just stared blankly . I thought, when I have the ability, I will bring my mother back.”

She paused, looking at the dazed and despondent woman in front of her. “I want my family to be reunited. Martial Uncle Shangguan, please tell me. If you were my mother, would you return home with me?”

Shangguan Wanrong stared at Feng Jiu. A burst of tempestuous mood and excitement rose up in her heart. Her eyes reddened and tears rolled in her eyes. At that split second, memories flashed in her mind.
