Huo Yao was stunned when she saw the expression on Song Ning's face. The next moment, she was suddenly hugged by her daughter.
"My dear daughter, you finally called me mom!" Song Ning was so touched that she almost burst into tears.
Huo Yao went speechless. "..."
It was as though they were not on the same channel.

Ten minutes later, Huo Yao came downstairs in a loose t-shirt and ripped jeans after a quick shower. Although she looked casual and clean, she gave off a cool vibe.
"My daughter is so pretty." Song Ning rested her chin on her hand as she watched her daughter walk over. Although she was not wearing the clothes she had bought for her, she was still impressed by her daughter's looks.
Huo Jinyan nodded proudly. "She has inherited all my good genes."
Song Ning rolled her eyes at him. "Have some shame. You look like me the most."
"Yes, yes. Honey, you are always right." The henpecked man instantly gave in.
Huo Yao overheard their conversation as she walked closer. "..."
She was offended by their display of affection.
Before long, Huo Yao sat down at the dining table. She had always been a reticent person, so she remained silent throughout the meal. Occasionally, when Huo Jinyan and Song Ning spoke to her, she would only reply with simple 'oh' and 'uh huh'.
Huo Jinyan and Song Ning did not feel that their daughter was being unreasonable or arrogant. Instead, they felt a little guilty.
She must have been a loner and lacked love from a young age to have developed such a reclusive personality!
Huo Yao was unaware of their thoughts. After breakfast, she noticed that Song Ning was massaging her temples from time to time. A thought crossed her mind and she quickly went upstairs. Within two minutes, she came back down.
She took out two small bottles from her suitcase and handed them to Huo Jinyan and Song Ning respectively.
"This is for you," said Huo Yao softly with a casual look on her exquisite face.
Song Ning took the bottle and twisted it open. She asked curiously. "What's this? Look at the bottle, it looks so exquisite … "
The moment the bottle was opened, a rich herbal scent wafted out. Song Ning felt refreshed the moment she caught a whiff of it. She felt an indescribable sense of comfort.
She had a migraine, which would come back from time to time, but there was no medicine to cure it. When the pain was severe, she could only rely on painkillers to relieve it. Her head hurt a little in the morning, but she didn't want to show it in front of her daughter.
At this moment, the smell was so strange that even her migraine seemed to be gone in an instant.
"Yaoyao, what medicine is this?" Song Ning asked in surprise. The more she smelled the medicinal fragrance, the more she wanted to immerse herself in it for the rest of her life.
Huo Yao noticed that Song Ning was visibly more relaxed than before, so she replied nonchalantly. "It's just some herbal incense. It's like incense. It has the effect of calming one's mind and relieves pain."
After a pause, she added, "Take one out every night and put it at the bedside. It will help your migraine."
Song Ning was shocked. "How did you know I have migraines?"
She wasn't the only one who was shocked. Even Huo Jinyan was surprised.
"You kept massaging your temples during breakfast." Huo Yao's eyes were clear and she did not explain further.
