However, Lin Ya did not seem to have any intention of leaving. Instead, she curled her fingers lightly.
Huo Mian’s baby photo flew towards Lin Ya…
That scene was like a supernatural film…
Lin Ya held up the photo, looked at it, and then looked at Huo Mian.
“Not bad, the little guy looks a lot like you… Even though he’s not that good-looking, he’s quite decent… It must have been past your due date, right?”
“Is it any of your business?”
“Of course…”
“Lin Ya, you can either let me go or kill me… What are you doing by putting me under house arrest like this… You even put Dad and Yan under house arrest. You’re a monster.”
“Miss Mian, don’t say it…”
Messiah knelt on the floor and kept tugging at Huo Mian’s skirt, reminding her not to anger Lin Ya like this.
“It’s okay. Let her talk… I’m willing to listen.”
Lin Ya waved her hand…
She didn’t seem to mind Huo Mian’s vicious words.
“Lin Ya, you keep saying that you care about me, your biological daughter, and your grandchildren… Then let me go. Let Daddy and Yan go too… If you’re willing to stop, I believe they’ll forgive you. The four of us can live well together… Give up on your fantasy over immortality… Can you do that?”
Huo Mian didn’t expect Lin Ya to give up on her career with just a few words.
But she also wanted to give it a try. It was better than nothing.
Lin Ya was not so stubborn…
She might really be willing to give it a try and accept her, even though she was really unlikeable.
“Go on, go on…”
Lin Ya looked at Huo Mian with interest, wearing a smile that no one could see through.
Huo Mian pointed at the baby photo…
“He’s a young life. He was about to be born safely, but because of the psycho you created, Leila, who caused an explosion in Yunnan, he and I almost died… Look at you, you could even try to kill your own daughter. I don’t think there’s a mother like you in the world. I used to think that Dad loved you so much… You should be a very good woman… In my and Yan’s memories, you’re perfect… You wouldn’t be something like this now.”
“Mian, what do you think is the most important thing in your life? Money, status, ability, power?” Lin Ya asked.
“No. In my life, family is the most important.”
“But they will die eventually. Once they die, what will you have left…”
“People are born with a limited lifespan. Sooner or later, they will die… so will I. Isn’t this a very normal thing?”
“But what if Mom can keep you alive forever…?”
“Is this what you mean by immortality?” Huo Mian asked, still finding it ridiculous.
“Mian, ask Messiah… How old is she?”
Lin Ya looked at Huo Mian and then at Messiah, who was kneeling on the ground.
Huo Mian tilted her head and looked at Messiah.
“Aunt Messiah… How old are you?”
Huo Mian trusted this maid a little. Over the past few days, she realized that she was actually a gentle person.
Messiah dared not speak… her fingers trembled.
“Tell her the truth, Messiah. It’s okay. She’ll find out sooner or later.”
“Miss Mian… I… I was born in 1836.”
After Messiah said this, Huo Mian burst out laughing.
“Aunt Messiah, stop it… okay?”
“Miss Mian, I’m not joking.”
“You were born in 1836, so this is 2017. Doesn’t that mean you’re already 181?” Huo Mian thought it was funny.
But as she laughed, she felt that something was wrong.
Messiah and Lin Ya were not amused. They looked at her very seriously.
