My Demon Husband Is a Snake-Chapter 918: Borrowing the Dragon-Seeking Ruler
Yu Rongling actually acted coy with Yan Hua, and was especially clingy.
I just went "ha ha," Yan Hua who never gives a damn about anyone.
Yet she was particularly nice to Yu Rongling. What on earth is going on in this world?
Yan Hua looked at Yu Rongling, her tightly knit brows relaxed a bit. "With you pleading for her, I won’t blame Su Wan for eavesdropping. Are you satisfied now?"
"Mmm, mm, mm, Granny, you’re the most forgiving and magnanimous." Yu Rongling pushed his luck, flattering her, "You haven’t even asked what my sister-in-law needs your help with."
Yan Hua’s icy gaze pierced straight into me.
I felt uncomfortable under her stare.
Thinking that it’s the same whether I face it or not, I candidly said, "Well... I’d like to borrow your Dragon-Seeking Ruler."
"For you to have the nerve to ask me to borrow it, it must be for something important?" Yan Hua smiled and asked me.
I always felt there was something strange about her smile, so I nodded.
Yan Hua’s smile deepened, "Dream on, even with Rongling speaking for you, it won’t work. I’d rather die than lend you the Dragon-Seeking Ruler."
I: "..."
Seeing my speechless expression, Yan Hua left, flicking her sleeve with great satisfaction.
"Grandfather, Granny Long, I have something else to do, so I won’t stay longer." I bowed in respect to Lin Huan and Granny Long.
Lin Huan walked up to me, "Wanwan, can you stay over for a night? I’ll make sure to get you the Dragon-Seeking Ruler first thing tomorrow morning."
"Sure, thank you, Grandfather. Then... I’ll stay at my mom’s for the night." I thought to myself that dealing with the Vine Demon could wait for one more night, so I gladly agreed.
After leaving from Lin Huan, Yu Rongling came up to me voluntarily, "Sister-in-law, aren’t you going to check on my mom? Your Blood Splendor Robe healed her wounds."
"Not today, I’m a bit tired and just want to rest." Every time, I couldn’t shake off the feeling of powerlessness after meeting Yan Hua and Qing Li.
Having just been criticized by Yan Hua, I wasn’t going to Qing Li to get berated too.
Yu Rongling nodded, "Then have a good rest. Grandpa said you’ve been trying to deal with the Vine Demon that hurt my mom all the while outside, Sister-in-law, you’ve worked hard."
This guy... has he turned over a new leaf??
Before he was calling Lin Huan "old gourd," now he’s calling him Grandpa?
I turned to look at the lively Yu Er, and curiously asked, "Since when did you get along so well with my grandfather and Yan Hua?"
"Heh heh." Yu Rongling chuckled awkwardly, his attitude a bit shy, "Isn’t it necessary to go in and out of the attic frequently? Naturally, I have to maintain a good relationship with your grandparents, sister-in-law. How can one roam the world without socializing? Plus, I found that Granny is actually quite nice, and very lonely, so I kept her company and we became friends."
Impressive, my little Yu Er!!
I never thought he had such an amazing social skill side.
Perhaps the potential was triggered to protect his mother Qing Li.
After all, Yu Rongling in the Lin Family is in unfamiliar territory and has to care for his mother, definitely needing a strong backing.
Suddenly, Yu Rongling sighed, "Granny she... treats me well, probably partially out of guilt... I’ve already learned about my sister’s egg being stolen by Lin Gang, and my mother being bullied by Lin Gang as well, Granny... found out about it later too."
"It seems a lot has happened in the sect while I was away." Hearing this, I felt a mix of emotions, full of thoughts.
Human nature is intricate and multifaceted, Yan Hua extremely detests and loathes me and my mom.
But anything related to Lin Gang, even the evils he committed, she as a mother felt guilty about.
This kind of affection might be something my mom wished for her entire life but never got.
For some, motherly love is readily available yet taken for granted.
For others, motherly love is like stars in the sky and the moon in the water, distant and unattainable.
