Chapter 1355: Chapter 1355: Mom, I am Yufei
“Mm, let’s keep today’s events under wraps; don’t let word get out.”
“I understand.”
“It’s really a pity we missed Yufei’s wedding.”
Two people were still seated in the living room: a handso middle-aged man in a blue double-breasted uniform and a middle-aged woman with an expressionless face and delicate features.
They were extrely well-maintained—around fifty—but appeared to be not even forty.
The one speaking was the man in the blue uniform, Nangong Xu.
Wenxiang said indifferently, “You can’t bla yourselves for that; it was I who decided to move the date up last minute. How was your trip to the Maldives?”
Nangong Xu glanced at Nangong Ruyue beside him and nodded with a smile, “It was very nice. You can tell from how much better Ruyue’s spirits are.”
Wenxiang looked towards Nangong Ruyue; indeed, her complexion had improved significantly.
He smiled with satisfaction, “You’ve just returned. After you’ve t Yufei, go and rest.”
“Okay.”
“BOSS, Miss Yufei and Young Master Qi have arrived,” the servant announced. No sooner had the words left his mouth than Jian Yufei ca in, arm in arm with Qi Ruisen.
The otherwise expressionless and distant Nangong Ruyue finally showed a ripple in her gaze.
She turned her head slowly towards Jian Yufei, and in that instant, Jian Yufei also caught sight of her.
The two shared similar features, only one was marked by the wear of ti, bearing traces of frost.
The other was young and vibrant, like a blossoming, radiant flower.
They stared dumbly at each other, a sense of kinship born of blood stirring a familiar fondness in them, compelling tears to their eyes.
Jian Yufei let go of Qi Ruisen’s arm, drawn irresistibly toward Nangong Ruyue…
Nangong Ruyue’s slender fra trembled, and she also rose to her feet, stepping towards her.
Unable to suppress her excitent, Jian Yufei lunged forward and seized Nangong Ruyue’s arm.
“Mother—” she cried out, the na she’d long held silently in her heart.
Nangong Ruyue’s body shook, and tears abruptly moistened her cheeks.
Jian Yufei wept bitterly, like a holess child who had finally found her mother.
“Mother, mother…”
“Uuuh…” Nangong Ruyue, unable to speak, sobbed and raised her trembling hand to caress Jian Yufei’s face.
Jian Yufei caught her hand, choking up, “I finally found you, mother. I finally see you!”
“Uuuh…” Nangong Ruyue embraced her tightly, and Jian Yufei clung to her in return, crying unabashedly as they freely expressed their inner sorrow.
After so ti, Jian Yufei released her mother, looking at her and saying, “Mother, I am Yufei.”
Nangong Ruyue nodded; she stared intently at her daughter, knowing her na.
Yufei, a na her father had chosen for her even before she was born.
Jian Yufei knew her mother couldn’t speak; she eyed her lips and asked sorrowfully, “Mom, is it true you can’t speak?”
Nangong Ruyue shook her head, giving her a smile tinged with sadness.
Though it was just a slight smile, it revealed her still-beautiful countenance.
That smile, like an orchid, was modest, gentle, yet pristine and lovely.
The few n in the living room were stunned by her smile.
It had been over twenty years since Nangong Ruyue had last smiled…
Wenxiang suddenly cast his eyes down, concealing the complex emotions in them.
Nangong Xu stood up, laughing heartily, “Yufei is indeed your mother’s lucky star; she smiled as soon as you ca.”
