Chapter 58 - His Return 2

"I will overlook what you just said now because Xiang has more responsibilities now," Yang Chen smile while wiggling his eyebrows.

"I totally agree with Chen on that. Our Xiang is so responsible. Right Xiang?" Li Fengjin placed his hands across Ye Chaoxiang's shoulders.

"You guys have started getting under my nerves very often now. I think I have gone soft," Ye Chaoxiang smiled tauntingly.

"I smell something fishy going on here. Anyways, let us head home. I missed my mother alot," Yang Wenkai smiled at the thought of seeing his mother again. Since the ten years he was away, one could count the number of times he had called his mother. He had turned unfilia.

The drive from the flower store to the Yang mansion was peaceful. The roof of the car was opened making his hair ruffle with the breeze that came rushing towards them. He missed this feeling. The feeling of peace, love and fulfilled heart.

After a while, Yang Chen's car drove into the compound with Li Fengjin and Ye Chaoxiang in the car following closely behind. Yang Chen asked his brother to stay in the car until he gave him a sign to come out, then he pressed a button in the car that made the roof close.

Mrs Yang was already informed that her son and his friends had arrived so she rushed out with Lee Ai.

"How was your outing?" Mrs Yang asked as she embraced her son and acknowledged the greetings of his friends. "My outing was great. In fact it was the best and spectacular and fun," Yang Chen could not stop smiling.

"Really? Then that is good to hear. But I am pretty mad at you right now," Mrs Yang said with a mock glare on her face.

"What? Why? I mean, what did I do?"

"You guys Wei out, had a great time and brought nothing for me and my cookie. And you are asking me what you did? So much for raising the gentleman," she scoffed. Yang Chen chuckled at her antics. At least it was evident that he got his childish nature from her.

"Daddy promised to bring my favorite sweet. Does daddy knows that breaking promises are very bad?" Lee Ai played along.

"Oh shit. I totally forgot about the sweet part," Ye Chaoxiang whispered to himself. He was in for some scolding. More like another round of lectures from teacher Lee Ai.

"Mm hmm. And bad boys deserved to get punished. Right cookie?" Mrs Yang said. Lee Ai nodded in agreement. "That's right. So say bye-bye to kisses and hugs and hello, to silent treatment, because none of you are getting one. We refuse to talk to all of you." As Lee Ai passed the final judgement, Mrs Yang scooped her up and proceeded to leave them outside.

Seeing as the duo were about to leave, Yang Chen quickly spoke up . "Wait."

"What now?"

"I'm sorry for not getting anything mum," Yang Chen apologized

"That is too late now."

"No, it's not. Okay maybe not getting any goodies was wrong. But.. what if.. I have something better than take out from any fancy restaurants?" Yang Chen said. His expression was making the two women anxious.

"Chen get to the point already," Mrs Yang taunted. Quicky pulling his phone out, he made a call. "You can come out now."

"I promise you mum, you are going to love what you are about to see." He gestured Ye Chaoxiang to take his kid from his mother because the surprise might make the woman forget she was holding a living human being.

Taking her hands, he lead her a little bit away from the front door down the two stairs and stopped. Just then, Yang Wenkai who had been taking deep breaths, came out if the car but he had his back facing them.

"Will she be happy to see me? What if she is mad at me? Does she still remember me? I have not even heard her voice for a long time," he was getting nervous. "Come on Kai. You can do this. You have longed to see your mother since you left. Be happy and strong. Do not cry. Yeah, I've got this." With his nervousness gone, he turned around to face the one woman he was dying to see.

And there she was. His mother, standing with shock painted all over her face. He smiled nervously at her. She had changed. She looked like someone who was going through a recovery process.

To day she was shocked was an understatement. Mrs Yang could not believe her who her eyes were looking at. For ten slow passing years, she finally had the opportunity to see her first son. A large part of her world left with him but now it felt like everything was back. All the broken pieces of her heart were placed on their right position and she could get it beat with joy.

Slowly and shakingly, Mrs Yang took her every step. It was if her feet were tied to a stone. Her hazel brown eyes were blinded by tears. Her nose were red and her lips were quivering. The distance between them felt like world's apart.

Yang Wenkai took hurried steps towards her. He missed her alot and he was not going to waste any moment to be with his mother. Not stopping until he was standing right in front of her. "Xiaokai."
