Chapter 882: Be Filial

 

‘Why did you have to hire people who knew sign language?"

Mu Chenyan was trying to decide where to take her best friend for fun when
Yue Yue held her arm and asked that question. Mu Chenyan frowned and

pursed her lips a bit before saying, "What's wrong with that?"
"You didn't have to go this far for my sake.’

"Who said I'm doing this for you?" retorted Mu Chenyan strongly. "You're not
the only person who can't speak. There are other people who are born with this
disability. Those who can't hear or speak. And who said such people won't be
our shop's patrons? Clothes are a necessity and who doesn't love beautiful
clothes. We can't choose our customers. We shouldn't discriminate like this.
This discrimination is the reason people lose their self-esteem. Just like you
did."

Yue Yue had no way to argue with that.

Mu Chenyan lost her serious look and asked, "How about we go bowling?" But
then she looked at her best friend and shook her head, "No, your delicate arm
might break down. Besides, I shouldn't hurt your talented hands." She touched
her chin thoughtfully, "So, what should we do? How about we go to the arcade
section and play?"

"That's for kids or teenagers!

"I don't see a notice outside it that says ladies our age are not allowed," was Mu
Chenyan's response. "Besides, we are middle-aged. Not that old, okay?"

Mu Chenyan was in a dilemma about what to do. After all, the activities in her
mind were all tiring. But she brought Yue Yue out to relax so she had to be

considerate. What could they possibly do?

In the end, she did drag Yue Yue to the arcade section and played around. She
even helped Yue Yue catch a plushie from the claw machine which actually
excited Yue Yue so much that she jumped. Mu Chenyan found her happiness a
bit silly because it was just a plushie in her opinion but whatever. It made her
best friend happy so she was willing to catch another one!

Later, they went to a restaurant and had lunch together. And after lunch, they
watched a movie as well. Mu Chenyan's energy was endless as always but Yue

Yue was tired by this point. Although she did have a lot of fun, she hadn't run

around so much for so long that she was easily tired now.

"Your stamina is so bad," said Mu Chenyan in disdain. "This is why I told you to

join my workout."
'T'll die if I followed your workout regime.'

"I'm not that inhumane," said Mu Chenyan. "Let's have some ice cream? After
that, we'll go to the spa!"

"There is still spa?"
"Of course! After the professional massage, you'll feel good and relaxed!"
‘No, we're going home after the ice cream!’

Mu Chenyan hugged her arm and played the role of a coquettish girlfriend,
"You can't do that. What about the spa? You're coming with me. Don't say no,
darling. You'll break your boyfriend's heart."

Yue Yue pushed her face away that was getting uncomfortably close in
displeasure but the tilt of her lips couldn't hide her amusement as well. She
really couldn't understand how Mu Chenyan even did this. Was it okay for her
to slam down her heroic image and stomp on it by acting cute?

Both of them were having fun teasing, pushing, and pulling at each other.

Unbeknownst to them, there were other people at the shopping mall too.

It was none other than Elder Yue and his wife, Yue Yue's parents. They had
come to the jade jewelry to find a suitable gift. After buying the gift, they
walked out and that's when Madam Yue's eyes caught sight of Yue Yue who was
smiling helplessly at the antics of the woman beside her.

Her feet paused and she was frozen to her place. Madam Yue couldn't believe
her eyes. She thought she was old and her eyes were seeing wrong. So, she
rubbed her eyes but still was able to see her daughter from afar. There was
quite some distance between them but she was still able to recognize her
daughter.

Tears brimmed into her eyes and she covered her mouth as an audible cry
escaped from her throat.

"Let's go," said Elder Yue. "What are you looking at?"
Madam Yue held his wrist and said, "Master, my daughter!"
"What?"

Madam Yue pointed towards where she saw Yue Yue but now, no one was there.
She was baffled and at a loss. "No, she was just here," she mumbled to herself.
She rushed to look for her daughter.

"Where are you going?" Elder Yue couldn't understand Madam Yue's actions
right now. He passed the shopping bag to his assistant before he also followed

his wife.

It took her five minutes for Madam Yue to find Yue Yue again as she stood
before a jewelry store while Mu Chenyan was trying to drag her in. She ran over

and only when she reached close was she able to hear the argument.

"Come, let's buy you new earrings!" Mu Chenyan was saying but Yue Yue
refused to budge. "Don't you love earrings? I heard they have new designs!"

‘No!

"I'm not paying!" Mu Chenyan said. "It's our son-in-law. Let's give him the
chance to be a bit filial to us, eh? This is the brand his mother left to him. Trust
me. It's not my money. I just want to seriously give my son-in-law a chance to
flatter me."

Yue Yue obviously didn't buy that stupid excuse. As if anyone could flatter Mu
Chenyan with money. She was the money mine herself. Who would be daring

enough to flatter her with money?
"Yue'er!"

Hearing an aged and choked-up voice, Yue Yue was confused and turned to
look. But when she faced the old woman standing before her, she was taken
aback for a moment. The woman's tears fell when Yue Yue turned at her call.
No one could tell whether those tears were of sadness or happiness but it didn't
matter to Yue Yue right now..
