  Su Wan has completely forgotten about Luo Chenxi, this side character who only appeared for a short while. She was one of those people who firmly adhered to the principle of letting go and forgetting, no need to keep it in mind to make one suffer totally unlike Luo Chenxi who was still blaming Su Wan despite falling in the pit by themselves.

  Thus, even if she has many enemies Su Wan couldn't zero down on Luo Chenxi and she was no psychic so it was even more impossible.

  " Wan Wan are you okay?" mother Lin who just woke up and finished her breakfast of dumplings filled with oil residue and minced pork ( courtesy Su Wan), and came to see her daughter in law after not finding her anywhere, couldn't help but ask when she heard Su Wan sneeze. The weather was already so cold that even seven jin of the cotton blanket wasn't enough to warm them up, so mother Lin was worried that Su Wan might have caught a chill.

  "mother in law? Why are you here? " asked Su Wan, the snow last night wasn't light at all. Compared to them, mother Lin who's health wasn't good at all, shouldn't come out in the cold winds " mother? You shouldn't be here. It's so cold better to stay inside your room on the Kang"

  " How can I stay inside after upsetting my good daughter in law," said mother Lin a little guiltily "I couldn't stop thinking about last night, you did so much for our family and yet we let Lin Yi disrespect you like that, my heart wasn't at ease just thinking about it. That's why I came to see you, I was afraid that this incident might create a knot in your heart"

  " mother, it's not your fault" Su Wan didn't blame Mother Lin, she was Lin Yi's mother and as a mother, she will always think the best of her children. It wasn't her negligence but her husbands, mother Lin tried to keep a balance between her sons and daughter, this is something that she could have never stopped doing as a mother" you are their mother, you will of course try to keep an equilibrium between them"

  " no, I'm in the wrong," said Mother Lin " it's true that I'm their mother, but am I not your mother as well? I should have not allowed Lin Yi to upset you like that…… Mother, was wrong can you forgive me?"

  " Mother in law-?" however before she could say anything, mother Lin rose from her chair and wrapped a snowy white muffler around her neck. The muffler was soft and full of warmth, making Su Wan eyes feel hot " mother in law what's, why?"

  " I finished it last night, I was knitting it for you ever since you bought the yarn for me. I wanted to make something nice for you since this is the least I could do " sighed mother Lin as she straightened the muffler " ah Yu helped me with the design, I thought I will give you a nice gift…… Who knew that I would use this gift to apologise to you"

  Su Wan blinked her eyes and willed away her tears, she was lying when she said that she wasn't upset by Mother Lin's behaviour yesterday night but she tried to forget it by repeatedly telling herself that Mother Lin was after all her mother in law and Lin Yi was her own biological daughter, of course, she would favour her more than her, who was just an outsider.

  Su Wan was just like that, she had a tough life even in her previous lifetime. Because she was an orphan no one liked to play with her but instead of begging them to play with her, Su Wan would play alone in the playground not bothering with them at all. Her mother was the same, always blaming her for not being a good daughter saying that if she was as cute as Su Lan maybe her father would come and meet her, why will she act cutesy with her father who didn't want her? Why will she beg him for loving her when she knew he didn't?

  Just like that she was not willing to ask or question mother Lin, if the latter didn't like her then she wouldn't ask her to like her either. She won't beg or throw tantrums, Su Wan was prepared to keep mother Lin at bay and treat her with basic courtesy as her daughter in law and nothing more.

  But who would have thought, that mother Lin would come to her by herself and even apologise in such a compassionate manner? The wall that Su Wan started building around her heart was knocked down before she could even finish it.

  Never before she was loved by a mother and didn't know what it feels to be loved like a mother or what exactly was maternal love. This was the first time that someone was willing to love her like a mother would love her daughter, how can she not be emotional because of This?

  "'Mother in law, why didn't you stop her ?" said Su Wan as she could no longer control her grievances " she is your daughter but I'm your daughter too, she wronged me so much. *sniff*"

  " Mother is sorry, Wan Wan" seeing Su Wan crying, mother Lin started to cry as well. Hugging the small figure of her daughter in law in her arms, she couldn't help but mentally slap herself for wronging such a sweet daughter in law like that " but don't worry mother slapped that bad girl for you yesterday, I slapped her twice don't worry, ……don't be angry, mother taught her a good lesson"

  Mother Lin indeed slapped Lin Yi when she went over the top in insulting Su Wan which was why the latter lost her control and brashly fought with father Lin like that before Su Wan and the others arrived.

  " mother law"

  "Wan Wan"

  "'Mother in law "

  "WAN WAN!"

  The two women cried in each other embrace until their eyes puffed up and became swollen only then did the two stop crying.

  " I think it's better if Lin Yi stays away" wiping her eyes with a cloth that was dipped in cold water, mother Lin finally spoke in a stuffy voice " that girl, she is much more troublesome now than she was as a child. I am afraid that if she comes here frequently she might drag her brothers down" when mother Lin found out what Lin Yi did to her third and second brother, mother Lin's already guilty heart dropped all the way to her stomach, her daughter -the one she gave birth to was so vicious! How can she be so vicious? Almost killing her brothers like that is what a sin!

  Su Wan didn't say anything, she could feel that mother Lin was depressed and wanted to hurriedly change the topic but before she could she was interrupted by the howls of wolves, she immediately looked out of her window at the foot of the mountain and then asked worriedly before she could stop herself " mother, listen -is that a pack of wolves? Are they coming down the mountain ?"

  Mother Lin remarked in worry " From the sound of the howls, there are indeed quite a lot of wolves in this pack! If they descend the mountain, the families here, including us, will bear the brunt of their attack. It's too cold, I'm afraid many animals went in hibernation? and the wolves can no longer find food as readily as they could, maybe they are coming down in search of food ."

  Just as mother Lin finished speaking a wretched scream was heard from outside .

  "WOLVES! WOLVES! AT THE FOOT OF THE MOUNTAIN THERE ARE WOLVES! RUN FOR YOUR FOR LIVES !"-

  'I'm not a wolf but you drive me wild ': a blushing and stuttering Lin Rui ( I was forced to say this by author san please give me your precious power stones or author san will punish me)
