Chapter 765 - Falling apart (1/2)

Li mansion.

Garden.

Wrapping his arms around her waist, Zixin asked, ”You okay?”

Yumi sighed and nodded her head. ”Yeah I am fine.” Pausing for a while, she added, ”I just feel weird for not feeling anything at all. I mean she is about to die and she wanted me to say only a word right? But I didn't do it because it just didn't feel right Zixin.”

Turning towards him, she asked, ”You don't want me anymore right?”

”And where did that come from?”

”Well, I just turned a dying person down and that is a very cruel and evil thing to do and to top everything up, I don't even feel bad or guilty. Isn't this reason enough not to want me anymore?”

Kissing her forehead, he smiled, ”I have never wanted you more Yumi and to be honest, you were looking so s.e.xy when you turned her down.”

Slapping his chest, she chuckled, ”Stop it—”

”No seriously, that was kinda cool.”

Fixing his collar, she added, ”I just didn't want to call any woman my mom you know, maybe she was once my mother but she is not anymore, I don't even remember her touch. From the moment I opened my eyes, I have seen two people who have immensely loved me and took care of me like I am a part of them. How can I even pity someone whom I don't even remember? Okay maybe she kept me in her w.o.m.b for some time but that isn't enough right?”

”Absolute honey and I am with you on this one.”

Just then Ming arrived and said, ”Can I borrow my daughter for a while.”

”Mom you don't have to borrow me from anyone, I am all yours always,” Yumi chuckled before wiggling out of Zixin's embrace.

After Zixin left, Yumi hooked her arms around Ming's. ”What do you wanna talk about mom?”

”Let's sit on the bench and talk.”

Yumi smiled and nodded her head before walking towards the bench.

”You know honey before your grandma, I mean my mom left us, everything was so sorted and we were this happy family but after she left us, everything changed. Though father managed everything very well but there is a limit to what a man can do. So to lessen his pressure, I started taking care of Yufan and Yurin.”

Pausing for a while, Ming added, ”I don't know when and how Yurin started hating me and everything just started falling apart.”

Placing her hand on hers, Yumi said, ”If you are blaming yourself for whatever happened then you are wrong mom, it wasn't your fault. You tried your best, you can't be responsible for anyone's actions and you taught me this, remember?”

Ming smiled and nodded her head. ”I know honey, I don't really blame anything because if not for those events, I would've never met your father.”

”Honey, you know when I first saw you at the hospital, you were this tiny adorable little thing. Singtan actually loved and played with you more than he did with Zian because he always wanted a daughter.”

”I always knew dad loves me more than brother Zian but thank you for telling me this, now I can tease him as much as I want,” Yumi chuckled.

Cupping her face, Ming continued, ”Maybe I did not nurture you for nine months in my w.o.m.b Yumi but ever since I saw you and for the last twenty-six years, I have nurtured you in my heart. Maybe I am not your biological mother but I love you more than anything else in this world and so does your father.”
