The next few days on the vessel were restless and trying for Little Yichen. He wholeheartedly looked forward to the day of his reunion with his family and wished it would come sooner! He really missed home.

  Lisa knew that Little Yichen thought of home all the time. It was evident when he was undergoing hypnosis. How strong his willpower must have been, to resist such a terrifying hypnosis process to the extent that it failed?

  Little Yichen actually did what Youyou could not! She could not help being impressed by him!

  After sailing for half a month… finally! Little Yichen was overjoyed when he learned that they would be arriving at the capital’s harbor the next morning!

  That night, he was sleepless! He had lost count of the time that he had been away from home! He wondered if Youyou had been getting along with his parents or regained his memory after returning to the Mu family home.

  In the middle of the night, Lisa woke up and saw that the bed next to hers was empty. Little Yichen was missing. She got up and went to the deck. There, she spotted him leaning against the railing, looking out to the horizon. The other shore was the capital’s harbor.

  That was the direction of home. His home.

  He kept looking in that direction. Lisa walked over and teased, “Why? Are you too excited to sleep now that you’re almost home?”


  Little Yichen did not reply. Instead, his voice trembled as he said, “Lisa, can you imagine?! I’ll be able to see Mommy in six hours!”


  Lisa was suddenly silent.

  “Not only Mommy, but Daddy, Youyou, Yueyao…” A blissful smile spread across his face as he spoke.

  Surprisingly, Lisa was also affected by his emotions and smiled sincerely. “Do you miss home that much?”


  “Uh huh!”


  Lisa rested her elbow on the railing and propped her chin on her hand as she asked curiously, “Mu Yichen, what’s it like to have a home?”


  He was surprised that Lisa would ask such a question. In the past, Lisa would find such a question extremely childish. However, she was actually taking the initiative to ask now.

  He was a little curious, but he also seriously considered how to answer this question.

  “It’s not really easy to explain. It’s just… a very warm feeling!”


  Warm?

  Lisa laughed. This was an ambiguous answer. Little Yichen said, “I love it when Mommy reads me bedtime stories. I like to lie in her arms and listen to her gentle voice! My mommy’s voice is the best sound in the world! Listening to her voice, I can fall asleep peacefully. Speaking of which, I can no longer remember the stories she told me, but I really like that feeling. Listening to her voice and falling asleep… I’ll never have nightmares again.”


  Lisa listened intently. When he suddenly stopped speaking, she asked curiously, “What else?”


  “And…” Little Yichen grinned. “Every time I made a mistake or Youyou pushed the blame to me—as you know-Youyou is my younger brother, so I have to give in to him! However, even if Mommy is angry, she won’t be fierce towards me. If she’s really upset, she’ll definitely be so angry that she’ll cry! I’m so afraid to see her upset, so I keep telling myself not to make Mommy cry. Otherwise, I’d feel really guilty!” “Uh huh…”


  “Furthermore my daddy had warned me—”.

  Little Yichen pretended to imitate the way Mu Yazhe spoke. “You’re not to make my wife cry, understand?!”
