Battle of Ascension

Chapter 49: Telling The Truth

The next morning at 4 pm

Zhen Yi opened her eyelids slowly. In the front of her was her husband. After last night their relationship became even more firm, at least now she trusted him more than before.

She looked carefully at Randy face who slept soundly before she tried to get up, suddenly there was a hand that prevented her to get up. She looked at Randy who already opened his eyes.

"Where are you going?" Randy asked sleepily.

"You forget that we will pick up my mother this morning," Zhen Yi answered.

Randy looked at the time at Battle System, it's 4.11 am,"This early? your mother still sleep at this time right?"

"I can enter the house and wake her up, also those guards from the Zhen Family who guarding my mother still not come yet this early so there is no troublesome too if we pick my mother this early," Zhen Yi explained.

Her house guarded by the people from Zhen Family, so she could not bring her mother and also threatened her with this guard.

"Ugh," He didn't think that the Zhen Family would put a guard to Zhen Yi's mother.

At 4.30 am they departed to the west of the outer city, another Residential Area. Took 20 minutes to reached west Residential Area. Randy followed behind Zhen Yi. He didn't know where she lived so he just followed her.

After 5 minutes he arrived in the front of the house with number 1298.

"We arrive," Zhen Yi said a melancholic tone while stared at the house in the front of her.

Randy noticed the melancholic on her voice but he didn't know what to do. And also he became a bit nervous. He would meet his mother-in-law.

Zhen Yi opened the door, they entered the house together. This was the first for Randy entered the house beside his house. The interior was the same as his house.

Zhen Yi straight to her mother room and knocked on the door.

"Mom! Mom! this is Yi'er," Zhen Yi called her mother while knocked on the door.

After a few minutes, the door opened, and a middle age woman came to his sight. Randy shocked after he saw the middle age woman.

The woman was so haggard, Looked like only skin and bone left on her body. Her face so thin even the cheekbone could be seen. Also, there were dark bags under the eyes, a sign of lack of sleep. Her eyes were void, unfocused but after the middle age woman saw Zhen Yi. Her eyes back to normal, the lackluster behind her eyes became bright. The long hair also turned to whiten.

He didn't think that the condition of Zhen Yi's mother would be these poor. He thought the Zhen Family only confined her mother, and the condition would not be this bad.

Actually, the Zhen Family didn't do anything bad to Zhen Yi's mother. They gave her food for lunch and dinner even the breakfast. It was just that she became stressed and depressed, and she didn't eat. Every day she was grounded by the Zhen Family furthermore she even became a tool for threatened her own daughter.

The only her wish was her daughter. She didn't want to leave her daughter alone but also she could not do anything too. This made her even more depressed and stressed out.

Zhen Yi hugged her mother. Her mother also hugged her back, stroked her back with full of love. There was moist on her eyes. She wanted to cry but she held it.

"Mama, let's leave," Suddenly Zhen Yi said.

Zhen Yi's mother body trembled after she heard what her daughter said. She also wanted to leave, but it was impossible for them to leave. The Zhen Family will not let them leave moreover the successor of the Long Family also took a liking to her daughter, and Zhen Family also already accepted the proposal from the Long Family.

If they leave now, the Long Family also would be involved. This made more impossible for them to leave.

"No, we cannot leave. We will become more miserable if we leave," Zhen Yi's mother shook her head vigorously.

"It's ok mama, as long as you didn't leave the East City the Zhen Family cannot do anything to you. They also cannot threaten me with you. Later I will tell you the detail. Now, I want to introduce someone to you," Zhen Yi explained with a smile.

She pulled her mother to the front of Randy. Zhen Yi's mother finally there was a man behind her daughter. Early she didn't notice Randy presence. She looked carefully at the man in the front of her.

About almost 1.8 meters high, tall nose, black short hair and clear black eyes. Then she looked at Zhen Yi, inquired who was this man in the front her?

"This is Randy Christian, my husband," Zhen Yi introduced Randy to her mother with a sweet smile.

Zhen Yi's mother was shocked, looked at her daughter and looked at the man before she looked back to her own daughter.

"Are you insane? why you involved others people with our problem. How if Zhen Family and Long Family retaliate against him and his family? You know the power of the Long Family right? You humiliated Long Family by married this man, you... you..." Zhen Yi's mother spoke without stopping until she choked.

Randy immediately ran toward the kitchen and brought back a glass of water. He gave the glass to Zhen Yi.

"Calm down mama, calm first. Zhen Family or even Long Family will not be able to do bad thing to us and his family as long as we didn't leave the East City. Calm first, Inhale and exhale," Zhen Yi gave the glass of water to her mother.

Zhen Yi pulled her mother to sit. Randy just stood up beside Zhen Yi, he looked at them nervously.

Zhen Yi's mother stared at Zhen Yi like said: "Tell me the detail now!"

"All right all right, it's like this..." Zhen Yi explained why Long Family and Zhen Family would not be able to do anything to them in the East City.

"Then what about when you go outside the city to hunting?" Zhen Yi's mother asked worriedly.

"It's okay. Most of the people of the Dragon Dynasty is in Beijing territory while I am in Jakarta territory. They cannot do anything to me, you know right how strong I am?" Zhen Yi explained with a smile while showed her delicate arm to her mother.

"It's really like what you said?" Zhen Yi's mother asked her daughter with a doubt.

Zhen Yi nodded her head and said,"Mama, look at the forum..." Zhen Yi asked her mother to search about a post that hoodlum got beheaded when he wanted to ****. More and more a post about that hoodlum after hoodlum getting killed by man wore golden armor when they wanted to do the bad deed.

After Zhen Yi's mother looked at this post, she finally believed that Zhen and Long Family would not be able to do anything to them as long as they stayed in the East City.

Zhen Yi noticed that Randy just stood up beside her, looking at them.

"Hey, why are you just stand up there, sit,"

"Ugh, y-yes yes..." He sat down the opposite Zhen Yi and looked at her mother nervously. Zhen Yi's mother noticed that her son-in-law looked at her, she turned her head to him. When Zhen Yi' mother looked at him, he immediately looked away.

Zhen Yi's mother mused by Randy action. she shook her head.

"So where are we going to go now? you said we will leave?"

"It's like this auntie, we intend to open a restaurant. So you can help my mother too at the restaurant," Randy the one who answered.

"You want to open a restaurant? It needs a lot of capital to open a restaurant, you could afford it?" Zhen Yi's mother blurted out with a doubt.

Randy face became bright after he heard this. It was time to show off to his mother-in-law.

"Don't worry auntie..." Randy blabbering about all the wealth he had. Plan about he wanted to buy a building to open a restaurant, plan about he wanted to open a workshop blacksmith for his father.

After he finished, he looked at his mother-in-law nervously. He wanted to make a good impression to his mother-in-law.

Zhen Yi only shook her head when he saw this.

"All right all right, stop talk about this. We should meet his parents first, mama. Let's go,"

They leave together. Just after the door house closed. Zhen Yi's mother asked Randy,"You and my daughter already married right?"

"Y-Yes auntie, we already married for 9 days," He didn't know her mother-in-law asked. He just answered honestly.

"Then you should call me mama too, like Yi'er. Why you still call me auntie," Zhen Yi's mother said with a smile.

Randy relieved,"Yes mama," his words a bit stiff, but he still smiled brightly.

They walked together toward Randy's house. On the way, Zhen Yi's mother asked her, where was she in this 9 days. Zhen Yi told her mother about her activity in this 9 days. Where she met Randy, how Randy's family treated her, she told all this to her mother until they arrived at Randy's house.

In the front of the house, Wisen warmed up. He looked three people, walked slowly to where he was. He looked carefully after they reached 10 meters from him. He finally managed to look at their face, it was his son, his daughter-in-law and a middle age woman that he didn't know.

"Good morning dad," Randy greeted his father.

Wisen looked at the middle age woman and wanted to ask Randy who was this, but his son embrace him, pulled him and said,"Let's talk inside, and wake mom up too,"

Wisen confused by his son action, but he didn't ask.

Inside the house, Almira, Wisen, Zhen Yi, and Zhen Yi's mother, sat together. Actually Randy the one who wanted to tell the truth to his parents but Zhen Yi insisted, she would the one who told this.

Zhen Yi recounted the story when she first time met Randy. The motive why she wanted to marry him to Almira and Wisen.

Almira frowned after hearing the story from Zhen Yi. Her good impression of her lessened. Zhen Yi continued, She told about her fiancee. She even told them about the problem she brought, Long Family and Dragon Dynasty.

Almira even became more displeased, but she didn't cut off Zhen Yi. She kept listening to Zhen Yi. She told them, because the warm family they gave, she kept staying here. She missed the warmth of the family and wanted to enjoy this here. Zhen Yi's mother crying after hearing this.

Almira expression eased up while Wisen didn't change expression from the start until now. And she told about Zhen Family, who threatened her with her mother. About why she had a fiancee was not her who accepted it.

After hearing this, Almira could not bear to cursed. Now, she felt sympathy for Zhen Yi. She looked at Zhen Yi's mother, the condition was so poor. She approached them and hugged both of them.

Zhen Yi looked at Randy, what he said last night was true. While Randy winked at her.
