Chapter 759: Chapter 505: Wake Up Laughing From Dream (Third Update)_1

"So, Auntie is having breakfast with us today," Gong Yu said excitedly, looking at Mu Lin. "Mu Lin, do you know? This is the first time I’ve sat at the table and eaten with Auntie like this." This meal was definitely one to remember, and just the thought of it made her happy.

Moreover, "My parents are back, too." They’re really curious about Mu Lin; I guess they’ve heard me talk about her too much.

"Didn’t you eat together before?" Mu Lin asked; so, all these years, had her mother eaten alone?

"Yes," Gong Yu nodded. "Because we never knew when Auntie might suddenly have an episode, and she didn’t want to be close to us at all, except for Auntie Qiu who took care of her all the time. So, Auntie Qiu took care of everything for Auntie, including meals." Even she, Gong Yu, had to put in a lot of effort to get Auntie to accept her.

Upon hearing this, Mu Lin fell into thought.

"Do you know, Mu Lin," Gong Yu continued to talk to herself. "I’m really thankful that I brought you back home. Otherwise, I might not see such a scene in my life." So, she was really grateful to Mu Lin. How wonderful it would be if Mu Lin were her Auntie’s daughter, and she was her older sister.

Gong Yu felt that if this were true, she would be laughing in her dreams.

And sure enough, in the future, she did wake up laughing from her dreams because her dream came true.

Of course, this is to be discussed later.

Looking at Gong Yu’s excited little face, Mu Lin seemed calm in comparison. However, even she failed to notice that when she looked at Gong Yu, her gaze carried an unprecedented indulgence; it could even be said to be the kind of doting that an elder sister has for her younger sister.

"Let’s go. Do you want Grandpa and the others to wait for us young ones?" After all, there were several elders there, and they were her elders too.

Although she was a guest, at the very least, Gong family’s Grandpa had acknowledged her as his granddaughter, hadn’t he?

Even though she should be his granddaughter-in-law.

"Oh yes, let’s go..." Upon hearing this, Gong Yu quickly turned around to lead the way, almost forgetting the main event in her excitement.

By this time, almost all the members of Gong family had gathered in the dining room, even Gong Ning, who had been punished yesterday and forced to kneel in the Ancestral Hall for four hours. Her expression still looked gloomy.

She vowed to get back at Mu Lin and Gong Yu for the humiliation she experienced yesterday.

Even though Mu Lin hadn’t said a word yesterday, she somehow ended up being the object of Gong Ning’s hatred.

She really could not escape from it.

Of course, Mu Lin never knew what it meant to escape.

"Where’s Linlin... where’s Linlin?" Gong Muxue looked anxious as she sat at the edge of the table, gripping Grandpa’s sleeve. "I want Linlin." Her face was full of pitiful worry that you couldn’t help but feel sorry for when you saw her. It seemed as if you could agree to anything she asked.

In truth, this was because, last night, Grandpa had comforted her, saying that if she behaved herself, he would bring her to see Mu Lin the next morning. First thing in the morning, before she could do anything else, Gong Muxue started looking for Mu Lin. She was then coaxed here by Auntie Qiu. She was sitting quietly at first, but since Mu Lin hadn’t arrived, she started to get anxious.

Seeing Gong Muxue’s anxious face, Auntie Qiu took a step forward and comforted her: "Young mistress, don’t worry, Miss Gong Yu has gone to find Miss Linlin. You’ll see her very soon." She liked Mu Lin ever since she saw her yesterday.

"Really?" On hearing this, Gong Muxue immediately let go of Grandpa’s sleeve. She seemed to have completely abandoned him. Grandpa looked at her helplessly, but with a fondness in his eyes. It seemed like it had been a long time since he had a close interaction with his Xiaoxue.

The little incident just now brought back memories of Gong Muxue’s past behavior, making him feel relieved yet sad.

Gong Muxue eagerly grabbed Auntie Qiu’s hand, her face showing happiness. However, her happiness was mixed with some worry, probably because she was afraid that Mu Lin would disappear again and abandon her.

Auntie Qiu gently patted her hand. When she glanced towards the Main Gate, the corner of her mouth lifted into a smile, "Young mistress, look, isn’t she here now?" She saw three people walking together.

The one in the middle seemed to radiate an inner light. Although the two beside her were outstanding, they could not overshadow her brilliance.

Without hesitation, Gong Muxue turned her head and looked in that direction. As soon as she saw Mu Lin’s figure, she quickly got up and announced, "Linlin." She rushed forward to look for Mu Lin.

Ignoring Jing Chen, Mu Lin walked quickly towards Gong Muxue. Just before Gong Muxue was about to trip, Mu Lin caught her and said, "Linlin is here." Her soft voice and gentle smile reassured Gong Muxue, who then sat down.

Gong Yu wanted to sit next to Mu Lin, but she forgot there was a protective father-like figure, Jing Chen, around Mu Lin.

So... she could only sit next to her parents pitifully. The look on her face made her parents feel helpless. Were they being avoided by their own daughter?

They remembered that it had been a long time since they had seen each other; their daughter had not been like this before.

They looked at Mu Lin; the corner of the mother’s mouth lifted slightly into a smile.

To tell the truth, she liked this girl with just one glance. It was no wonder that their daughter liked her so much.

Apart from this, she was very satisfied with her daughter’s ability to make friends. She never misjudged people.

Meanwhile, the father was taken aback when he saw Mu Lin, especially when he saw Mu Lin standing next to Gong Muxue. His heart gave a sudden jolt; they indeed looked similar.

No wonder Xiaoxue would recognize Mu Lin as her daughter. The father thought that, compared to Gong Ning, Mu Lin looked more like Gong Muxue’s daughter.

Thinking this, his gaze wandered across Gong Ning’s gloomy face before finally releasing a small sigh of regret.

As for Gong Ning, her hand under the table was clenched so tightly that it changed from white to red, and then from red to blue at the sight of Mu Lin.

Mu Lin!

And the most stimulating event was yet to come.

"Grandpa." Looking at Grandpa, Mu Lin nodded slightly. Her call to Grandpa was loud and clear.

"Good girl." Grandpa’s serious and thoughtful face instantly softened when he heard Mu Lin. His eyes were gentle and his face was filled with pleasing smiles.

Grandpa’s obvious change of demeanor didn’t surprise those who had seen it before, like Mu Lin and Gong Yu. But to others, it was a mixture of shock and awe.

When had Grandpa acknowledged Mu Lin as his granddaughter? What on earth was going on?
