Chapter 103: "Mommy!!"

But even with that strange feeling in her chest, Yan Cijin still missed her mother and daughter very much. That thought quickly pulled her back to the present. She did not keep standing there and thinking too much. Instead, she turned away and used her key to open her own security door as fast as she could. Home was right there now. Her mother and daughter were right there too. And after all the blood, the smell, the stairs, and the fighting, that was the thing she wanted to see the most.

As soon as Yan Cijin opened the door and stepped inside, the first thing she saw was the little chubby dumpling of a child running straight toward her with those tiny short legs moving as fast as they could. The little one was full of energy, full of love, and clearly had no idea how dirty Yan Cijin looked right then. She was still covered in the mess from the zombie blood, and the smell of it was still hanging around her body too, so the moment she saw that tiny body rushing up to her like that, Yan Cijin reacted fast and reached out to stop the little dumpling before it could crash into her leg. Her hand landed lightly on the child’s shoulder, careful and gentle, because even though she had just gone through something dangerous, the first thing in her heart was still to protect this child from getting dirty. The little one looked up at her with those bright, shiny eyes, and the way the child was looking at her was so soft and so trusting that it made Yan Cijin’s heart feel warm in an instant. The child seemed so sweet and so good, and with that innocent little face, it was impossible not to feel touched.

"Mommy!"
