Now that she was embraced in her husband’s arms, her stoic heart suddenly gave way.
No matter how strong she appeared, with Ruan Feng gone for so many years, her heart was still in pain.
"Lingyu, I’ve been wrong these years, I failed to fulfill my responsibilities as a father and a husband, I shouldn’t have avoided our problems."
In reality, it wasn’t that he didn’t care about them, but that he couldn’t face them. Coupled with Ruan Lingyu never showing him a warm face and constantly using the issue of Ruan Mianmian to press him down, those years had been extremely tough for him too.
Later on, he thought that if he just left, and Ruan Lingyu couldn’t see him, her heart might feel somewhat better, so he applied for his resignation.
Indeed, just as he had thought, after he left, Ruan Lingyu never called him, and the news he got from Yiqian was that Lingyu’s state had improved a lot.
He thought what he was doing was right, at least Lingyu would be more comfortable.
"Do you know how much heartache I feel every time I think of Mianmian?" Ruan Lingyu didn’t want to bring it up, but she attributed all the suffering over the years to Ruan Feng. If Ruan Feng hadn’t lost Mianmian back then, their family should have been very happy.
Ruan Feng sighed helplessly, "It’s all my fault."
Seeing how pained Lingyu was, he really wanted to tell her the truth, but the results from Yiqian’s side were not out yet, and if it turned out not to be her, it would only make his wife happy for nothing and even more distressed.
Ruan Lingyu, hearing his words, knew he was also in pain, and suddenly couldn’t come up with any words of blame. She sobbed for a while when suddenly the sound of a car came from the doorway; she guessed her son must have returned.
She wiped her tears away and quickly struggled out of Ruan Feng’s arms.
As expected, after a short while, Yiqian walked in from outside. Seeing both parents sitting on the couch, he strode in.
Ruan Feng caught a glimpse of the DNA test results Yiqian was holding, his heart tensed up to his throat, and he stood up abruptly.
Seeing that the mood wasn’t right with both of them, Lingyu also stood up.
Yiqian suddenly didn’t know how to put it, so he directly handed the DNA test results to Ruan Feng. Seeing the content, Ruan Feng’s hands trembled with excitement.
Seeing his condition, Lingyu thought he wasn’t feeling well and hurried to support him, "What’s wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?"
Yiqian remained silent; Ruan Feng himself had told Lingyu that the child was lost, and now that she was found, he should be the one to tell her, perhaps it would help to resolve his own heartache.
Ruan Feng’s lips quivered for a moment before he finally said, "Mianmian has been found."
"Mianmian has been found?" It had been over a decade, and finally she heard the words she longed to hear. Ruan Lingyu’s mind went blank, feeling as if it were not real, as if in a dream. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚫𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚫𝕟𝕖𝕥
"Yes, Mianmian has been found," Ruan Feng pointed at the test result, "Look, this is the DNA result that Yiqian brought back."
Ruan Lingyu, seeing the words on the page, tears gushed out like a spring. With a thousand words in her heart, she could only ask two questions, "Where is she? Has she been well all these years?"
"At first, life wasn’t good, but then it got better after meeting a benefactor," Yiqian said.
"Quick, take me to see her," Ruan Lingyu only wished to see her daughter at this moment. Only with the person in front of her would she believe that this wasn’t a deception.
"Mom, calm down first," Yiqian said, pulling Lingyu back to the couch, "Mianmian might not be willing to see you."
Although it was a hurtful thing to say, at this stage, he had to let Lingyu know the truth.
