He grabbed his daughter Yu Xiao's hand more than once and sighed: "Xiaoxiao, if it weren't for you, Yaoyao and Yi Mo would not be together until now. Xiaoxiao, Daddy is really sorry for you... I've known you for such a long time, why didn't I ever think of you as my daughter?" Looking at his daughter in front of him, Ming Yusong couldn't help but think of his wife Yao Bingyan, feeling guilty.
"Dad! Everything will be fine! Besides, Mom has an incurable disease, so don't blame yourself too much! If Mom knew we recognized each other, she would definitely be happy for us! And my sister, hasn't she finally gotten her happy ending after all the hardship she's suffered? The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your health and wait to hold your grandchildren." Yu Xiao comforted her father softly.
"Xiaoxiao, how are you and Shaonan...?"
"Very good..." Yu Xiao smiled at her father, but a hint of bitterness flashed through her eyes. Ever since she returned to T City from the tea garden, and until now, although the two of them still talked and smiled at each other, she always felt that there was something between them that was hard to explain. Everything seemed to have changed.
"Shaonan is a good man, don't let him go! Do you understand?" Although Ming Yusong had not had many contacts with Kang Shaonan, he had a surprisingly good impression of him.
"Well, don't worry! Dad, I'm pregnant now, and I won't let the child be born without a father!" Yu Xiao smiled while holding his father's hand.
"That's good! That's good!" After hearing his daughter's answer, Ming Yusong was completely relieved.
Because everyone's home is not in Q City, as soon as Ming Yusong's condition stabilized, Shen Yimo contacted the ambulance and medical staff in T City and transferred Ming Yusong from Q City to T City. Hearing that Ming Yusong was out of danger and returned to the city, Ren Zhiping and Yu Jiahou immediately bought some nutritional supplements the next morning after he returned to the city and took them to the VIP ward of the hospital.
Because he had been away from home for quite some time, Kang Shaonan went back to the Kang family villa to see his grandfather, while Shen Yimo took Mingyao back to do something important. So at this time, only Yu Xiao and his father were left in the ward.
When the two people pushed the door and walked in, Yu Xiao was sitting beside his father's bed, feeding him fruit. When he saw the two people come in, Yu Xiao's face turned a little cold, and he turned around silently and left the room with the fruit plate.
"Xiaoxiao..." Ren Zhiping looked at her daughter's back with a lonely face. She wanted to explain something, but she swallowed it back when the words came to her lips.
"She is still a child and may not be able to understand it for a while. Don't blame her. Give her some time and she will figure it out!" Ming Yusong, lying on the bed, looked at the couple's lost expressions and explained for his daughter.
Hearing Ming Yusong's tone, Ren Zhiping walked to the bedside and sat down ashamedly: "Brother Ming, don't you blame us?"
Ming Yusong looked at the two and smiled: "You helped me raise such a good daughter. I can't thank you enough. How can I blame you? In fact, I can understand your feelings. After all, she is the child you raised. You are afraid of losing her, so you hide everything."
“Brother, thank you! Thank you for understanding us so well! In fact, back then... Bingyan entrusted us with not only Xiaoxiao... She also gave us a sum of money... It was the two of us who were blinded by money... I’m sorry... I’m sorry..." Ren Zhiping felt even more ashamed when he heard Ming Yusong’s words, and he lowered his head and told him everything that had happened back then.
"Yes, brother! What happened back then has been like a stone pressing on our chest all these years. We were afraid that Yu Xiao would be angry, so no one dared to tell him!" Yu Jiahou also shook his head in shame, feeling unspeakable regret in his heart.
Ming Yusong just smiled gently after listening to Ren Zhiping's words: "You can't be blamed for what happened back then. This is God's punishment for me because I was so absorbed in the tea garden and neglected Bingyan, which is why things have come to this point today. If you want to talk about shame, it's because I'm sorry for my wife, and it has nothing to do with you! It's just that Xiaoxiao can't come to her senses for the time being. Don't worry, give her some time, she will slowly figure it out!"
"Yeah, we're not in a hurry! We're not in a hurry!" The couple nodded repeatedly.
Before returning to the city, Shen Yimo asked his assistant to buy some daily necessities and clothes for Mingyao and sent them directly to his apartment. That night, he took Mingyao back to his apartment and stayed there for the night. After breakfast the next day, he chose a new dress from the closet for Mingyao to wear, and then clumsily combed her hair. When he felt satisfied, he also changed into a new set of clothes and took Mingyao out.
Along the way, Mingyao kept asking him where he was taking her, but Shen Yimo smiled and didn't answer. He just held her hand and said, "Just follow me!"
The car crossed several roads and finally stopped. Shen Yimo packed his things, took Mingyao's hand and got out of the car, and took her to a building next to it. Because she couldn't see, Mingyao kept guessing where this place was. It was not until she sat down with Shen Yimo and prepared to take pictures that she knew clearly that the place he took her to was the Civil Affairs Bureau!
My heart was once again warmed by his silent warmth. I held his big hand tightly, and tears fell silently again.
Looking at Mingyao crying beside him, Shen Yimo raised his hand to signal the cameraman to pause, took out a tissue to wipe the tears from her eyes, and deliberately joked with her: "Today is a good day, because from today on, we are real husband and wife. You are not still thinking about marrying someone else, right?"
Listening to his words, she shook her head and leaned her face on his shoulder sobbing silently.
"The cameraman is waiting. Let's just smile first, okay?" He kissed her forehead and stroked her shoulders with his big hands.
She nodded silently and let him wipe her tears.
The marriage certificate was obtained smoothly. Mingyao stayed by his side obediently, listening to the blessings from many people. She had a faint smile on her face, but in her heart, she was so moved that she wanted to cry.
When walking out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Shen Yimo picked up two small red books, put them to his lips and kissed them hard, then turned his head and looked at his wife beside him and smiled: "Yaoyao, from now on, we will walk all the roads together! We will face all the difficulties together! If you still want to run away, I will chase you to the ends of the earth!"
Ming Yao couldn't help but laugh when she heard his words: "So corny!"
"Wife, there's something even more disgusting. Do you want to hear it?" Shen Yimo leaned close to his wife's ear and whispered with a smile.
“Don’t…” Mingyao’s face turned red at his ambiguous tone and she turned away.
"Forget it, I'll tell you tonight!" Seeing his wife blushing, Shen Yimo smiled and took her hand and walked to his car, opened the door for her to sit in, and then helped her to fasten her seat belt carefully, then closed the door and returned to his seat. After fastening his seat belt and reaching out to start the car, he saw his wife sitting in the seat with her lips pursed. He grabbed her hand and put it to his lips and kissed her hard, smiling and teasing her: "Wife, why do I see your expression? Are you unwilling to marry? Come on! Smile for your husband!"
She moved her lips, trying to laugh but unable to do so. She looked in his direction and said, "Yi Mo, thank you!"
Shen Yimo listened to his wife's polite words to him, raised his hand and pressed his forehead, rubbed her face with a smile: "How are you going to thank me? Forget it, I'll give you my body tonight!"
Ming Yao listened to his words and smiled slightly. After a while, she suddenly asked him, "Yi Mo, have you discussed your marriage with your parents?"
"Do we even need to discuss this? They knew about it half a year ago, Yaoyao, I know what you're worried about! Didn't we agree before that you should trust me? Trust that I can handle this! My parents are reasonable people, don't worry!"
She nodded slightly, looking in his direction and giving him a gentle smile.
No matter how difficult the road ahead is, everything will no longer be so hard and bumpy because of his company.
Love, let us move forward...
Ren Zhiping and Yu Jiahou sat in Ming Yusong's ward for a while and then left. After watching the two people walk away, Yu Xiao returned to the ward from the other end of the corridor and sat down beside his father's bed again.
"Xiaoxiao, where did you go just now?" Ming Yusong looked at his daughter and smiled slightly.
"I didn't go anywhere... I just went out for a walk..." Yu Xiao lowered his eyelids.
"No matter what, they are the ones who raised you! Who doesn't make mistakes in life? Don't be angry anymore!" Ming Yusong has experienced the joys and sorrows of these years, and he has completely let it go.
“Actually, I understand what Dad means… But I’m just angry that they knew I was your daughter but they didn’t want to tell me. If anything happens to you this time, I’ll regret it to death!” She is not a heartless person. She remembers the kindness of her adoptive parents in her heart, but she feels unspeakable fear when she thinks that her father will never wake up again in this car accident.
"Well, then don't make it hard on yourself. Give yourself some time and don't dwell on it..." After hearing what his daughter said, Ming Yusong nodded with relief.
"Dad, don't worry! I won't!" Yu Xiao smiled at her father. After going through so many things during this period of time, she is no longer the same Yu Xiao as before.
"That's good… "
A little more time passed, Shen Yimo and Mingyao returned to the ward and told Ming Yusong and Yu Xiao the news that they had registered their marriage. Uncle Ming was naturally very happy. Seeing that Shen Yimo had no intention of disliking his daughter, he was indescribably grateful to Shen Yimo. Although Mingyao was very beautiful and excellent before, times have changed, and she is not as good as before.
"Yi Mo, Yaoyao... will be in your hands from now on..."
"Uncle Ming, aren't we a family now?" Shen Yimo looked at Uncle Ming and smiled.
"Brother-in-law, you and my sister have already obtained the marriage certificate, why do you still call my dad Uncle Ming?" Yu Xiao looked at Shen Yimo deliberately with a smile, blinking mischievously. (To be continued)
