Chapter 73 Is Mom a name?
"...Why don't you say something?"
Chaolu, who was watching the show, couldn't bear it anymore and couldn't help but urge Jiang Nianwan.
Even if you are afraid that Mibao will be scared when he sees your appearance, you can't just remain silent, right?
Look how anxious Mibao is.
After repeated urging from Chaolu and Mibao, Jiang Nianwan finally spoke hesitantly.
"I, I'm...afraid..."
Mibao opened his eyes wide: "Ah? Are you afraid of me? Why?"
Adults all like her when they see her, and even those who don’t like her won’t be afraid.
"...I'm afraid of scaring...you."
Jiang Nianwan said the second half of the sentence.
Mibao: "...Oh, I see."
Zhaolu on the side almost couldn't hold back her laughter.
It's no wonder she wanted to laugh. It was just that Jiang Nianwan was so different from before after meeting Mi Bao.
Xiaonian, who had been observing secretly, felt very complicated when he saw Jiang Nianwan like this.
He was probably the only one present who knew Jiang Nianwan’s true identity.
Although he had never actually met the other party, as a system, he had actually been led by the system predecessors to understand his own life experience - otherwise how would he know about Mibao's existence?
So he knew that Jiang Nianwan was a gentle, beautiful, elegant and kind lady.
He also didn't expect that his long-dead mother would come back to life in this way.
This doomsday is really a huge joke played on the world and everyone.
Including him.
[Mibao, she is...]
Xiaonian wanted to tell Mibao the other person's identity, but he couldn't say it.
Jiang Nianwan was afraid that Mibao would see her... maybe she was subconsciously worried that her image in Mibao's heart would be damaged?
"Brother, what do you want to say?"
Hearing Xiaonian's voice, Mibao asked in confusion.
【Mibao, do you miss your mother? 】
Xiaonian didn't tell Mibao directly, but planned to test Mibao's attitude first.
He knew Mibao was still a child, but Mibao was also a strong child.
Mibao, you have the right to know.
"think!"
Mibao almost blurted out.
Of course she missed her mother. She dreamed of seeing her mother and hoped that her mother would be by her side.
Before the end of the world, the children in the kindergarten were picked up by their mothers. Their mothers would gently touch the children's heads, or laugh and scold them.
But no matter which one it is, Mibao is very envious.
She also wanted to have a mother so that she could throw herself into her mother's arms when she felt wronged, and her mother would touch her head to comfort her.
[What if your mom is not quite like what you imagined, and not as pretty and gentle as your dad is in the photo, would you miss her too?]
"think!"
Mibao nodded vigorously.
"So...what if Mom isn't just not pretty, but also scary? Just like those zombie monsters out there, wouldn't you be afraid and still want her?"
Mibao was stunned for a moment: "How could Mom be a monster?"
Chaolu, who had been eating melon nearby, looked at Mibao in surprise.
She knew that Mibao had an invisible alien brother, so she was not surprised when Mibao spoke inexplicably just now.
but……
Now it sounds like this topic...
like……
Chaolu looked at Mibao, and couldn't help but look at Jiang Nianwan who didn't dare to turn around in the corner.
Could it be that...
No, is this true?!
Didn’t Mibao’s mother die a long time ago?
He's been dead for more than five years, how can he come back to life after the apocalypse?
Even the morning dew had some brain freezes.
But after being confused for a while, I thought about it carefully and it seemed very reasonable.
If she was not Mibao's mother, why would she regard Mibao as so important and why would she run so far to find Mibao?
Because he is the closest person to me.
They are connected by blood.
【Meebo, but what if it really is? 】
Xiaonian said seriously and cruelly.
Mibao will eventually find out, this matter cannot be kept secret.
If Mom, now as ugly and scary as the zombies outside, appeared in front of you, would you be afraid and leave, or would you hug her?
I don’t know if it’s because he has been with Chaoyang for too long, or if Mibao is just a smart baby.
Listening to his brother talking about his deceased mother over and over again, Mibao seemed to have guessed something.
She couldn't believe it.
But...didn't my dead brother also come back as a system?
Is the deceased mother...
Are you back too?
His eyes suddenly felt hot, and Mi Bao looked at Jiang Nianwan's back.
Seeing that Mibao seemed to have realized it, Xiaonian said nothing more.
"You are..." Mibao's voice was a little choked, and the chubby little hand he stretched out was trembling slightly.
Then, she hugged Jiang Nianwan.
The moment Jiang Nianwan was hugged, she froze, not daring to move or struggle, for fear that her struggle would hurt Mibao.
"Mother!"
Mibao cried out and started to cry loudly.
Because her face was leaning against Jiang Nianwan's back, all her tears were stuck to Jiang Nianwan's clothes.
"Mother……"
Mibao didn’t know why she was crying, she just wanted to cry.
Maybe it was because his mother was so thin now, or maybe it was because he had never seen his mother before and now he finally had a mother, so Mibao cried for a long time.
Jiang Nianwan cried so much that she couldn't help but turned around and hugged Mi Bao, gently patting Mi Bao's back to comfort her.
Chaolu on the side watched quietly without disturbing the mother and daughter from recognizing each other.
“Don’t… cry… don’t cry…”
Jiang Nianwan didn't know how to comfort Mibao, so he could only pat Mibao's back and speak awkwardly.
After a while, Mibao finally stopped crying by sniffing and hugged Jiang Nianwan tightly.
"Mom, you're so thin."
She is so small, yet she can still hug Jiang Nianwan's waist, which shows how thin he is.
Chaolu, who was standing by, silently complained in her heart when she heard this - he must be so thin that only a bag of bones is left.
Mi Bao looked at Jiang Nianwan with heartache, and hesitated for a moment before reaching out to pull down the scarf that covered Jiang Nianwan's face.
Jiang Nianwan's body trembled, but he didn't stop in the end.
The scarf was pulled down, revealing a shrunken face.
The area where the eyes should be on the face was covered with white.
Jiang Nianwan was very nervous. Seeing Mi Bao staring at her blankly, she thought she had scared him, so she quickly pulled her scarf back on.
Mi Bao came back to her senses, pulled the scarf down again, and smiled at Jiang Nianwan: "It's not ugly, Mommy is very beautiful, not scary."
Jiang Nianwan was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Really...really?"
"Um!"
Mibao nodded vigorously.
So Jiang Nianwan smiled even more happily.
Then……
"Right...right, Mom...Mom...what is it?"
Smiling Mibao: ...?
Zhaolu on the side:???
What?
"Mom... Mommy... Is that my... name?" Jiang Nianwan tilted her head slightly, looking puzzled.
Mibao: “…”
Chaolu: “…”
