Chapter 117: Alright, Mom Will Listen to You

Bai Zhou’s words sounded like he was exaggerating, but Jian Ai knew that Bai Zhou would not talk big in front of her.
Jian Ai looked at Bai Zhou and then at Xiao Zhen. In the end, she couldn’t help but say in a low voice, “Please.”
A look of horror flashed across Xiao Zhen’s eyes as he hurriedly said, “Sect Master, there’s no need to do this. We are willing to go through fire and water for the Sect Master.”
On the other hand, Bai Zhou looked at Jian Ai and sighed in his heart. He knew that Jian Ai had yet to fully accept her identity as the Sect Master of the ancient sect, let alone know how sacred her status as the Sect Master was to the twelve guards.
As long as she needed it, the twelve guards could give up their lives for her at any time.
“Sect Master, leave the rest to me. I’ll take care of everything as soon as possible. When the time comes, you can bring your mother to the hospital for treatment,” Bai Zhou said.
Jian Ai nodded and didn’t forget to remind him, “The sooner the better.”
Bai Zhou gave Jian Ai a relieved smile. “Sect Master, don’t worry. Xiao Zhen and I will return you a healthy mother.”
When she reached home, Wang Yunmei had just finished cooking dinner. Seeing that her daughter was back, Wang Yunmei smiled and greeted, “Xiao Ai is back. Wash your hands and eat.”
Ever since her illness was diagnosed, Wang Yunmei had never revealed her weak side in front of Jian Ai. Jian Ai knew that her mother was putting up a strong front, so her heart ached even more.
Not only did her mother have to bear all of this, but she also had to take into account her feelings and comfort her instead. Jian Ai hated herself for being so useless, but this matter was too big a blow to her. She could not pretend that nothing had happened.
Fortunately, the heavens gave her hope once again. She believed in Bai Zhou and Xiao Zhen.
“Mom, what did you prepare? It smells so good…” With this thought in mind, Jian Ai leaned towards the table with a smile and regained her usual vigor. She could not increase her mother’s psychological burden at this time. She had to be optimistic to make her mother optimistic.
As expected, seeing that her daughter was no longer frowning, Wang Yunmei heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. Hearing this, she smiled and said, “Sweet and sour pork ribs and braised fish. They’re all your favorites.”
Jian Ai playfully took a deep breath of the fragrance of the food. Then, she walked to the bathroom and asked, “Brother isn’t back yet?”
“He returned at noon but just left. You two missed each other.” Wang Yunmei said as she came out with a bowl of rice. “Don’t worry about him. Have some first.”
At the dining table, Jian Ai picked up a slice of braised fish and placed it in her mother’s bowl. Then, she pretended to be relaxed and suddenly said, “Mom, let’s go to another hospital to take a look later. There must be a way.”
When Wang Yunmei heard this, she stopped eating. She immediately raised her head to look at her daughter. She saw that her daughter’s expression was natural and not as sad as before.
Jian Ai also looked up at Wang Yunmei. Seeing her mother’s expression suddenly turn solemn, Jian Ai smiled and said, “Mom, since we’ve found out, we have to face it. I won’t give up, and you can’t give up either. Think about me and Brother. You have to get better.”
When Wang Yunmei heard Jian Ai’s words, she looked at the resolve and hope in Jian Ai’s eyes. She knew that there was no use in hiding now. Just as her daughter had said, since it already happened, she had to face it.
She could not easily bow to the illness. She had children, so she needed to be strong.
Wang Yunmei nodded slightly and smiled. “Alright, Mom will listen to you.”
