Chapter 199, Part 2: The Child Reunites with His Family
When Wang Hui suddenly heard that clear "Mother," it was like a heavenly melody striking straight into her heart, and her joy exploded like fireworks in her heart.
Her eyes widened suddenly, and she hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound, only to see Ruan Mumu standing there gracefully.
The woman's smile was even brighter than the warm spring sun, like a vibrant flower. Her eyes were curved with affection, and she was walking slowly towards her with light steps.
Wang Hui subconsciously gripped Qiao Feng's hand tightly beside her, her fingertips turning slightly white from the force, as if those hands had found a safe haven.
She was so excited that her whole body trembled, and when she stood up, her knees hit the stool with a loud thud.
She paid no heed to the fact that her gaze was fixed on Ruan Mumu, tears still glistening in the corners of her eyes, yet her lips were already turned up in a smile, her voice tinged with barely suppressed sobs and joy.
She hurriedly called out, "Mumu, my dear daughter, come quickly to your mother and let her take a good look at you. You've suffered so much all these years!"
As she spoke, she raised her hand and hastily wiped away her tears with her sleeve, but the tears flowed like a broken string of pearls, unstoppable.
Qiao Feng stood beside his wife, looking at her with tender eyes. He stretched out his arm and firmly put it around her shoulder, patting her gently as if to offer silent comfort.
Then he laughed heartily, "I never expected that the clever and capable little girl who's been running around taking care of me these past few months is actually my own daughter! Hahaha..."
Recalling the past, his face beamed with a smile, his eyes narrowing into slits, and he continued with deep emotion, "When I first saw her cleverness, I kept thinking to myself, 'Such a wonderful girl, how wonderful it would be if she were my daughter!' Hey, I never imagined that God would actually grant my wish, hahaha..."
The rest of the Ruan family originally thought that this dignified general would be angry because his son had become a daughter, but they were surprised to find him so happy and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then, a voice came from outside the gate: "General Qiao, what great joy has come of this? You seem so happy."
As the voice came, a handsome man walked in. This man was none other than Doctor Liu.
"Prince Qing, what brings you here at this hour?" Qiao Feng asked upon seeing the newcomer.
“General Qiao, there is no Prince Qing here, only Doctor Liu,” Doctor Liu replied.
After he finished speaking, he found a seat and sat down without any hesitation, as if he were a member of the family.
After the younger generation greeted him, they sat quietly to the side without saying a word.
"Dr. Liu, let me formally introduce you. This is my daughter, Mumu." Qiao Feng proudly introduced the little girl beside him to Dr. Liu.
Just as Dr. Liu sat down and was about to drink his tea, he heard Qiao Feng's introduction and immediately spat out a mouthful of tea. Fortunately, he turned around to avoid it, otherwise several people present would probably have been in trouble.
Everyone laughed when they saw his surprise, because they were actually quite surprised themselves.
After he took out a handkerchief and cleaned her up, he slowly asked, "When did this girl become your daughter? Your newly adopted goddaughter?"
His words did not elicit a response from the crowd, but instead caused another burst of laughter.
At this moment, Chen Donghua couldn't bear to see him so confused, so she spoke up to help him out: "Dr. Liu, actually, Mumu and Tinghao were switched at birth for some reason. In fact, Tinghao is my biological son, and Mumu is General Qiao's biological daughter."
Dr. Liu was stunned again. He looked at Qiao Feng, then at Chen Donghua, and asked in confusion, "You two aren't playing a prank on me today, are you? Otherwise, such a fantastical thing would happen."
His words made everyone burst into laughter again.
At this moment, Qiao Tinghao spoke up, "Dr. Liu, of course we wouldn't dare to joke with you like that!"
Dr. Liu finally became convinced that what they were saying was true.
“Dr. Liu, since you’re here today, please be a witness for our two families!” Wang Hui said.
"Witness what?" Dr. Liu was even more confused now.
"Of course, it's about recognizing each other's relatives!" Qiao Feng added. He knew his wife well and understood her intentions.
Doctor Liu looked at Chen Donghua and asked, "Xiaojun's mother, is that what you mean too?"
He then looked at Old Man Chen and Old Lady Chen sitting beside him and asked, "Grandpa, Madam, is that what you mean too?"
Old Man Chen and Old Woman Chen nodded with smiles on their faces. Old Woman Chen replied, "Of course we couldn't be happier to have a grandson back."
Dr. Liu looked at Chen Donghua again and said, "Xiaojun's mother, what do you think?"
Chen Donghua replied with a smile, "I have another son, isn't that great!"
At this moment, Ruan Xiaojun and Ruan Xiaohai whispered to Qiao Tinghao, "Third brother, now you've finally become our brother."
Qiao Tingxuan and Qiao Tingzhong looked at Ruan Mumu and called out, "Little sister, your big brother (second brother) will protect you from now on."
Seeing the determined light shining in the eyes of the two Qiao brothers, Ruan Mumu nodded heavily.
Although she felt that she didn't need anyone's protection at all, the feeling of not needing protection and having someone protect you are different. Ruan Mumu preferred the feeling of being protected by her family.
"Dr. Liu, what do you think? This really is my own daughter, something you can only envy," Qiao Feng boasted proudly.
Little did he know how hateful his expression was at that moment.
Tonight, ever since Qiao Feng heard that Ruan Mumu was his daughter, his entire demeanor has completely changed. The once serious Qiao Feng now has only a warm and gentle expression on his face, and the murderous aura he once had is nowhere to be found.
Dr. Liu looked at Chen Donghua, as if he had something to say, but Chen Donghua quietly turned her face away.
The others didn't notice the slight difference between the two, but Ruan Mumu, who had been secretly observing Chen Donghua's emotions, naturally noticed the subtle tension between them.
Ruan Mumu thought to herself: There must be something going on between these two. I'll ask my mother about it later.
Wang Hui held Ruan Mumu's hand and said, "Girl, don't worry, your parents will never let you suffer again."
Ruan Mumu, feigning innocence, said, "Okay, thank you, Dad. Thank you, Mom. I will definitely be filial to you in the future."
Doctor Liu said, "Recognizing one's ancestors is a big deal and shouldn't be rushed. Let's wait until an auspicious day is chosen before holding the ceremony! What do you say, Xiaojun's mother?"
Even now, no one understands why Dr. Liu always asks Chen Donghua for her opinion. They just think that Dr. Liu is asking the head of the family for her opinion, which is a sign of respect for the head of the family.
“Yes, Dr. Liu is right. We should wait until we find an auspicious day to hold the ceremony. We need to take this matter seriously,” Chen Donghua agreed.
"Alright, time to eat. Grandpa and Grandma are starving," Ruan Mumu said.
