Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“You have a biological father and mother. When I’m old, you might be filial to someone else!”

Hu Ying harrumphed coldly, a hint of jealousy in her eyes.

Originally, she was all Yu Miao could rely on. Now that she thought about it, she was just an adoptive mother. Of course, she could not compare to the blood relationship between Yu Miao and her biological parents.

After hearing this, Yu Miao heaved a sigh of relief.

Since Hu Ying said so, Hu Ying cared about being filial piety.

Yu Miao reached out and grabbed Hu Ying’s hand. She said pitifully, “Mom, you’re my only elder. Master Peng and I only acknowledged each other today. We have nothing to do with each other. You’re my biological mother. Of course, I’ll only be filial to you in the future.”

These words hit the nail on the head.

She just wanted someone to be filial to her. Since Yu Su was so stubborn, Yu Miao was a good substitute.

“If it weren’t for your father, Yu Su and I wouldn’t have been separated for so many years. How can I keep you?” Hu Ying pretended to be in a difficult position.

She could not let Yu Miao return to her side so easily. Only then could Yu Miao cherish her future life.

Yu Miao continued to hold Hu Ying’s hand as tears streamed down her face. “Mom, I’m also a victim. I didn’t know anything about what Master Peng did back then. If he hadn’t said it today, I wouldn’t have known for the rest of my life.”

Naturally, she could tell that Hu Ying was loosening up.

As long as she acted along with Hu Ying now, Hu Ying would definitely agree to her request.

“You’re right.” Hu Ying nodded and sighed.

How old was Yu Miao back then? When she was adopted from the orphanage, Yu Miao had an innocent face and did things ignorantly. What did she know at that age?

Yu Miao continued to persuade him, “There’s one more thing. I’m worried about you. Master Peng escaped and hasn’t been caught yet. If he comes back to take revenge on you again, the consequences will be unimaginable. Of course, I have to protect you. If Master Peng comes, I’ll stand in front of you. I think Master Peng will spare your life on account that I’m his biological daughter.”

This was her trump card.

Yu Miao knew very well how afraid of death Hu Ying was.

After Hu Ying heard this, she was even more determined to keep Yu Miao. “Yes, with you around, I feel more safe. If someone wants to harm me, you’ll be there to block them.”

She looked calm on the surface, but she was panicking on the inside.

Hu Ying no longer trusted the servants around her. The person she trusted the most was still Yu Miao.

Yu Miao pretended to be agitated and nodded, looking touched. “Mom, you must keep me!”

“Hmph, I can let you stay, but you have to agree to three conditions.” Hu Ying’s face turned cold again.

Yu Miao immediately nodded. “As long as you say it, I’ll agree to any condition, let alone three. You’re my only elder in the world. If I don’t listen to you, who should I listen to?”

Hu Ying’s expression softened a little and she said, “First, you’re not allowed to contact Peng Chan’s people. If there’s anything, you have to tell me. Second, you have to prioritize my life. Third, you’re not allowed to hide anything from me in the future.”

If Yu Miao could be obedient in the future, she did not mind having another child.

If Yu Miao’s had scheming thoughts, she would immediately cut ties with Yu Miao and not care about her anymore.

“Okay, I’ll agree to everything. Mom, you’re the best.” Yu Miao sniffled with a touched expression and held Hu Ying’s hand tightly.

Hu Ying pulled her up from the ground and said calmly, “You’re not allowed to kneel so easily in the future. I’m not a harsh person. As long as you follow me well, your life will be the same as before.”

“Got it, Mom!” Yu Miao nodded. She looked at the garden in front of her again and asked in panic, “Mom, are we still going to live here? I feel that this garden is a little scary. I’m afraid.”

The garden was the same as before, but there was something strange about it.

Hu Ying also thought for a moment. “Let’s move out. I still have a house in the city. We’ll stay there.”

There were many people in the city, and the house was near the police station. If something really happened, they could call for help in time.

Yu Miao nodded happily. “Sure. As long as I’m with Mom, I can stay anywhere.”

When Yu Miao returning to her room. Hu Ying called two more servants to monitor Yu Miao so that she wouldn’t steal anything valuable..
