249 I Believe in You (2/2)

”Mom, I wanted to help, but you told me that you're almost done, and there was nothing else I can help you with,” Mingyue countered.

Mother Lin shook her head. She took a pair of chopsticks, clipped on a piece of meat, and brought it to Mingyue's lips. ”Try them. Is it alright? Do I need to put more salt?”

Mingyue chewed on the meat and savored the taste. Then, she gave her mom two thumbs up. ”It's good. No need to add more salt.”

Mother Lin turned off the gas and put the pot aside.

”Mom, tell me,” Mingyue grabbed Mother Lin's shoulder and whispered, ”Have you tell dad that Yang Yun will be coming over?”

”I told him,” Mother Lin nodded.

”Then? What did he say? How did he respond?”

Mother Lin gave her daughter a sideways glance.

When she mentioned to her husband that their daughter, Mingyue, invited her boyfriend over, General Lin suddenly said that he had an important matter to attend to outside. But once he heard that Xue Yi Ming would be coming over as well, he had no choice but to stay home.

Mother Lin could not help but laugh at her husband's childish act.

”Do you really like this boy?” Mother Lin asked.

Mingyue felt her face heated up at her mother's question. She bit her lips and nodded.

”You silly girl,” Mother Lin turned around and bopped her daughter's nose. ”Back then, you never showed any interest in another guy. And now you're finally dating someone, and we have to find out when you were hospitalized.”

”Mom, I'm sorry,” Mingyue pulled Mother Lin into a hug. ”Back then, we did not want to rush into things. And I did not know how you were going to react.”

Mother Lin can only sigh and smiled helplessly. ”Don't worry about your dad. He might act as if he did not care, but he trusted you and your sister's choice. Since this boy is the one you like, your dad and I will not say much. Even if your dad has something against this boy, if he really likes you and treated you well, then I will help to convince your dad.”

Mingyue felt her eyes stung. Subconsciously, her arms around Mother Lin's tightened.

The Lin family really treated her well. Mingyue felt her heart heavy at the thought of leaving her adoptive family soon.

She loved the Lin's family and was grateful that they had taken her in when she came into this world with no memories. However, choosing to stay in this world would be impossible, especially as they have found a way to go back to their world.

”That's enough,” Mother Lin patted Mingyue's hands, and soon, Mingyue released her grip. ”The guests will be arriving soon. Go upstairs and find your sister.”
