A Tale of Chase and Love s1

“…..” Theresa was tongue-tied, unable to find words to say in defense.

Truthfully, she hadn’t expected to face this kind of situation. The ideal scene that played in her head during her search for Grandma’s home was, of Grandma being baptized in joy and gratitude to her for her kind gesture.

However earlier, she was saved by Grandma during a critical situation and now she has seen that Grandma is very strong and not poor. What should she do? Theresa bit her lips while racking her brain in search of a reasonable answer but she found none. Theresa could only stare at Grandma with uncertainty.

Seeing her looking so confused, Grandma got up from her seat and smiled, hands akimbo.

“My dear, take your time and when you’ve found an answer please call me,” she said before vanishing.

Theresa opened her mouth in shock.

“Grandma is not some simple lady,” she thought.

Now, what was she going to tell her? What reasonable and convincing answer would she give? Yeah, she did come here with good intentions. Though things have drifted off track, she can still make it a happy ending right?

10 minutes later…

Theresa called out to grandma who immediately appeared sitting on her former chair. Theresa was startled and it resulted in Grandma chuckling.

“Grandma’s teeth are white and seem complete though. Unlike any grandma of her age, I’ve ever seen. They don’t have fake teeth here, do they?” she thought however, Grandma interrupted her thoughts.

“I thought someone called me. Maybe I’m mistaken,” she said preparing to stand up.

Seeing this Theresa laughed nervously and tried to calm her down.

“Grandma, this daughter is wrong. It was a sin to waste your time.. but.. i found an answer.. no, I mean… I have no parents and you can be my grandma” Theresa said. Her heart was beating fast.

What if Grandma rejects her offer? Or what if she turns her into a lizard headed being?

“My dear, fear not. I’ll think about it. For now, please enjoy your wine”Grandma said before vanishing.

Theresa was still startled despite knowing that Grandma has such ability. Every cultivator has an inborn ability from birth. It’s like heavens gift. Even a trash grade root cultivator has gifts but can’t use them to the full due to his roots.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

Grandma hasn’t reached the stage whereby she could easily disappear but that’s her gift from birth so she uses it at her will. Theresa shook her head and almost chuckled when she recalled Grandma referring to the tea as wine.

Theresa poured herself another cup of tea and slowly drank savoring the taste.

“Well the ancient world does have good tea,” she commented.

7 minutes later…

Grandma appeared carrying a bag on her shoulders.

When Theresa saw that Grandma had come back, she quickly stood up from her chair and looked at Grandma with uncertain eyes.

“Well… dear… you win,” said Grandma.

“Grandma, You’ll come to stay with me?” she asked in disbelief.

“Yes, my daughter”Grandma replied.

Theresa screamed in excitement and hugged Grandma who warned her not to ever scream at night in this area. Theresa apologized for her mistake and hugged Grandma again.

“That being done. Let’s go,” said Grandma.

“You’re the coolest,” said an excited Theresa.

Grandma wondered what she meant by coolest but did not bother to ask her about it for she knew it wasn’t a bad word.

*******

In Theresa’s new home…

Long Ren sat on the couch in the lining room eating apples. He had thought of various strategies to use in torturing Theresa. He was going to use the pretense of cultivation to make her cry. It would be worth it even if she gets periods in the end.

It wasn’t long before the door opened and in, came two women. One young the other aged. Ren immediately guessed who she was.

“Ren, my dear, this is Grandma Ye Feng. Grandma, this is my servant, Long Ren. Feel free here. He’ll is at your beck and call,” said Theresa.

Long Ren was dumbfounded. It was very evident in his widened mouth and eyes resulting in Grandma chuckling.

“S.. S… Servant? When did I become a servant? You..” he was unable to complete his words due to Theresa speaking to him through telepathy.

“Long Ren, calm down. It wasn’t easy for me to bring her here, so don’t ruin my efforts. If you do, I’ll be having fox stew tonight,” Theresa threatened, though she was still smiling.

“You won’t dare Mistress,” Ren retorted but he still decided at the end to bow to her level.

“Grandma, it’s a miracle to see you…” Ren said and cupped his palms. He bowed his head slightly and then returned to his normal position.

He saw her as a threat to his position as a favorite person in Mistress’ heart. What if she steals his position successfully? He’ll then be turned to a slave boy. Ah! How much he hated this contract. But he needs to behave for now. At least just for tonight. Tomorrow will be the dawn of a new era. An era of torture and excitement.

“My dear children…” Grandma spoke but did not complete her statement before white light covered her and her figure grew taller. When the light faded, what greeted them was a beautiful middle-aged woman.

“Yes, I’m no Grandma,” she said with a smile.

Seeing this situation, Ren felt as if a thousand arrows had pierced his heart.

It was like… he had lost the game without even trying. This beautiful lady has already stolen his mistress’ heart. Just look at her big round eyes. She’s happy to see this new version of Ye Feng.

“You are so pretty, Ye Feng. Can you be my foster mother?” Theresa asked.

“I already accepted your request to be a grandma. But… since we all know now that I’m no grandma, then I think it’s better to call me mother. So… YES, Han Fei Fei. Henceforth, you are my foster daughter.” replied Ye Feng ( note guys that I will now refer to Grandma as Ye Feng).

“Mother., “Theresa exclaimed and then hugged Ye Feng who patted her back gently. Theresa’s eyes became flooded with tears that began to flow out and she started crying.

“I miss my mummy, I miss my daddy so much. I failed them as a daughter and now I can’t ever see them again. If only I had listened to them, then probably, we might still be together” Theresa cried.

Ren shook his head and went back to sit at the couch and began to munch on an apple.

“Such a crybaby, Mistress” he muttered sadly.
