Chapter 263: Ren: Madam, I need you! Please use me! I want to see you!
At the Yukinoshita Family home, Yukimom sat on the sofa, gently rubbing her temples. She was recalling the strange experiences of the past few days. It was hard to imagine what incredible things she had gone through.
Upon returning to reality, the time hadn't changed by a single second. This made her subconsciously think that everything was fake. But after discovering her Angel Body and the abilities she gained in the Doomsday Game, she no longer had any doubts.
"Ding-dong!" The phone on the table rang, and Yukimom quickly picked it up.
Ren: "Yukino is fine. Madam, it's good that you're okay. I was worried about you earlier. By the way, there's something I need to remind Madam. Unless absolutely necessary, do not casually expose your power. There are deep implications involved."
Yukimom's gaze was solemn. Since even Ren said it was deeply involved, it surely couldn't be simple.
Yukimom: "I understand. I will keep the secret, I swear on the name of Yukinoshita Miyuki."
Ren: "Haha, there's no need to be so serious. I trust Madam's character. By the way, I heard Haruno say that Madam refused to move here and live with them?"
Yukimom didn't expect Ren to suddenly ask this question. Her answer remained the same.
Yukimom: "I think Haruno and Yukino have Ren-kun, which is enough. The Yukinoshita Family needs me."
She originally thought that by saying this, Ren wouldn't press further, but she never expected his reply to stun her.
Ren: "No, Madam, the ones who truly need you are Haruno and Yukino; your daughters need you. What they want isn't the Yukinoshita Family, but a real home with a mother in it."
She had never thought her daughters needed her; Yukimom always subconsciously assumed her daughters disliked her.
Ren: "Not only do they need you, I need you too."
!!! This sentence made Yukimom's heart tremble even more. Ren needed her? Why would he say such a thing?
Just as she was flustered, Ren's next words instantly caused this rising emotion to plummet.
Ren: "To tell you the truth, Madam, this world is suffering from the apocalypse. I need to unite any known forces. I suppose Madam also gained special abilities from the Doomsday Game, right? I need you, more than the Yukinoshita Family needs you."
Although she knew Ren's words meant he needed her strength, as a companion to fight against the apocalypse together, Yukimom still subconsciously thought in other directions. While feeling a sense of loss, she also vaguely anticipated something. After a period of inexpressible silence, Yukimom gritted her teeth and gave her reply.
Yukimom: "This is the first time I've known you all are under such great pressure. If that's the case, I think I know what to do. I will liquidate the Yukinoshita Family's assets as soon as possible and withdraw from the industry. Ren-kun, to fight against the apocalypse, please use me to your heart's content!"
After Yukimom sent this message, her face was unusually flushed, and her heart pounded uncontrollably. She had originally intended to say "use my power," but when it came to the word "power," her hand uncontrollably omitted it. After sending it, she regretted it greatly. This message was too inappropriate! Would Ren-kun misunderstand? Did she need to explain quickly?
Just as she was agonizing, Ren's message came again.
Ren: "Madam, I will make good use of your power."
... It seemed Ren understood her meaning. But this inexplicably made Yukimom's mood drop. Ren understood her meaning, but she herself did not understand her own heart.
Ren: "After all this, I imagine Madam must be physically and mentally exhausted. Please rest well."
Undoubtedly, these were words of concern. Yukimom's lips unconsciously curved into a faint smile, and a sweetness she herself didn't understand lingered in her mouth.
At the Yuigahama home, Yuimom, sitting by the bed, covered her face in embarrassment. "Why did I send my photo out so impulsively?" And it was a towel photo after a bath. "Ren-kun wouldn't misunderstand, would he?" Yuimom's heart was pounding.
Ren: "Okay, I'm relieved that Madam is fine."
It seemed he didn't misunderstand. Yuimom felt relieved, but a hint of self-mockery and disappointment emerged in her heart. "Sure enough, an older auntie couldn't possibly have any charm left." Not to mention Ren had so many beautiful, young, vibrant, and incredibly bold girlfriends. For example, that cute twin-tailed fanged girl, Eriri. Not only was she a top-notch beautiful girl, but she was also extremely open. She was one of those who witnessed the battle between the two when they opened the door. She even left a crack in the door and listened for several hours, which was truly shocking.
With such good girlfriends, how could he be interested in an obasan? It seemed she was overthinking.
Ding-dong! Ren sent another new message. Yuimom calmly picked it up.
Ren: "Madam is very beautiful, and your skin looks great. I really don't know how you maintain it."
"Ah, eh?" Yuimom's emotions were like a rollercoaster.
Yuimom: "Oh, stop it, Ren-kun. Please don't tease me. Yui's skin is beautiful and very fair."
Ren: "You must be joking. I can guarantee that Madam's looks, temperament, and skin are no worse than any girl's. Please trust my judgment."
Yuimom's ears turned red. Being praised like this made her feel slightly hot all over.
Yuimom: "I'll happily accept Ren-kun's praise. Ren-kun, do you have anything else?"
Ren: "Well, there's one more thing I need to tell Madam. Regarding your entry into the Doomsday Game and knowing about me and the other girls, I've already told Yui. After all, you are Yui's mother, so I still wanted to ask for your opinion first. I really hope you can bless me and Yui."
!!! Ren's words made Yuimom suddenly clear-headed. She blankly patted her face. "What was I just doing?!"
She repeatedly muttered in her heart, "I am Yui's mother! I am Yui's mother!..." She must never forget her identity!
After recovering, Yuimom replied to Ren with a bitter smile.
Yuimom: "If Yui insists, I will bless you two. I believe Ren-kun will always cherish Yui."
Ren: "Thank you for your trust! I believe Yui will be very happy to know. Yuimom, that's all for our chat, I should head back now."
Yuimom: "Oh, okay. Feel free to visit my home when you have time."
Ren: "Of course, I still need to understand the abilities you've acquired."
Yuimom: "It seems Ren-kun already knows. Then you can come and see for yourself."
Ren: "No problem."
Putting down her phone, Yuimom patted her chest, where her heart was beating a little faster. She could have directly told Ren about her abilities, but deep down, she didn't want to. Clutching her rapidly beating heart, Yuimom murmured, "Am I… wanting to meet Ren-kun?"
