Tang Xinxin and Luo Yuting had just sat in the back seat,

Before they could even settle in,

Tang Yaoyao came running up from behind like a gust of wind.

Actually, she had been secretly following them the whole time.

The moment I saw Su Jingchuan,

He immediately started making plans in his mind.

She knew perfectly well that the tall, handsome man in front of her was Tang Xinxin's extremely capable cousin, whom she had known since childhood.

Not only is he outstanding in his own abilities,

Their family background is even more illustrious.

In her mind, this was a golden opportunity that she couldn't afford to miss.

If we could establish a connection with Su Jingchuan,

That will definitely be of great benefit to one's future development.

"Sister, let's go home together."

Tang Yaoyao wore a seemingly obedient smile on her face.

As he spoke, his hands moved quickly as well.

He quickly got into the passenger seat by pulling on the passenger door.

Su Jingchuan raised an eyebrow slightly.

He glanced at Tang Yaoyao indifferently.

He knew perfectly well that Tang Yaoyao was the daughter of Tang Xinxin's second uncle.

We just hadn't had much contact before.

"Hello, brother."

Tang Yaoyao pretended to be well-behaved and cute.

She greeted Su Jingchuan in a sweet voice.

A hint of cunning and anticipation flickered in his eyes.

Out of politeness,

Su Jingchuan nodded slightly at Tang Yaoyao.

It's like saying hello.

Tang Xinxin sat in the back seat.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Tang Yaoyao's impatient expression.

He was slightly taken aback at first.

Then the corners of his mouth turned up.

I couldn't help but burst out laughing.

That smile carried a hint of mockery and insight.

Thinking to himself, Tang Yaoyao really doesn't hide her feelings at all.

His eagerness was palpable.

Luo Yuting keenly noticed Tang Xinxin's smile.

Turn your head slightly to the side.

His eyes held a hint of doubt and concern.

She asked softly, "Xin Xin, what are you laughing at?"

Tang Xinxin felt a pang of panic.

She couldn't reveal her true feelings.

After all, Tang Yaoyao was sitting right in front of her.

Then, her eyes darted around, and a blush rose to her cheeks.

She said with a hint of shyness:

"It's nothing. I was just so happy to see my brother come to pick me up that I couldn't help but laugh out loud."

Luo Yuting listened to her explanation,

A strange pang of jealousy welled up inside her.

He gave a soft hum and turned away, saying nothing more.

Tang Xinxin stole a glance at Luo Yuting's puffed-up profile.

His thin lips were slightly pursed, and his brows were slightly furrowed.

It looked like a little kitten with its fur standing on end.

Very cute.

She couldn't help but chuckle to herself. This silly boy, who usually seemed so composed, was unexpectedly so childish when he got jealous.

So, she secretly reached out her hand to Luo Yuting.

Slender fingers gently touched his palm.

Then he gently pulled her up.

then,

She gently drew circles on Luo Yuting's palm with her index finger.

The fingertips brushed past as lightly as feathers.

With a slightly itchy touch,

Round and round,

It seemed as if all the tenderness and explanation were being poured into this small gesture.

Luo Yuting suddenly felt a surge of heat rising from the bottom of his heart.

It quickly spread across the entire cheek.

Her fair face instantly flushed bright red.

Even the ears were not spared.

It added a rare touch of cuteness and shyness to his usually aloof image.

He turned slightly to the side.

He gently squeezed Tang Xinxin's hand with his other hand.

He held her small hand in his warm palm.

Then, he lowered his head slightly, and his thin lips parted slightly.

He leaned close to Tang Xinxin's ear,

A warm breath gently brushed past her ear.

He said in a deep voice, with a hint of doting:

"Don't make trouble."

Su Jingchuan's gaze inadvertently swept towards the rearview mirror.

What comes into view is the loving and intimate interaction between Tang Xinxin and Luo Yuting.

Tang Xinxin lowered her head slightly.

A happy smile graced her face.

Luo Yuting blushed and gently took her hand.

The deep affection flowing between the two seemed to fill the entire carriage.

It seems that during this period,

Their relationship warmed up even further.

Su Jingchuan witnessed this scene.

The corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.

A relieved smile appeared on his face.

However, in an instant,

He seemed to suddenly remember something heavy.

The smile froze on his face instantly.

With a furrowed brow, he couldn't help but raise his hand and pinch his forehead.

He was caught in a state of inner turmoil and worry.

Soon, they arrived at the Tang residence.

The car slowly drove into the courtyard.

The headlights drew two bright streaks in the night.

It then went out.

A profound silence fell over the surroundings.

Only the faint sound of wheels rolling on the ground still echoed in the air.

One by one, everyone got off the bus.

Stepping inside,

The warm light and the aroma of food instantly enveloped them.

The table was already laden with a dazzling array of dishes.

The exquisite plating and enticing colors make it incredibly tempting.

Tang Yaotian and Su Wanqing were already seated at the table.

A faint smile was on his face.

His eyes, however, could not hide a trace of solemnity and complex emotions.

The atmosphere was somewhat subdued during the meal.

Tang Xinxin seemed unaware of anything amiss.

They chattered away as usual, sharing the funny things that happened at school.

A cheerful laugh occasionally rang out in the restaurant.

It added a touch of vitality to the oppressive atmosphere.

Luo Yuting would occasionally respond with a few words.

His gaze, however, would linger on Su Jingchuan from time to time.

I had a vague premonition.

It seems something big is about to happen.

After the meal, Tang Xinxin was like a cheerful little bird.

She skipped and hopped back to her room to do her homework.

After her figure disappeared around the corner of the stairs

Su Jingchuan gently put down his teacup.

He raised his head and looked directly at Luo Yuting.

He spoke in a deep yet gentle voice:

"Yu Ting, come to the study with me. I have something I'd like to discuss with you."

Luo Yuting was slightly taken aback.

Then he nodded.

She got up and followed behind Su Jingchuan.

The two walked slowly down the corridor.

The footsteps sounded exceptionally clear in the silent space.

The study door was gently pushed open.

A faint scent of books and wood wafts towards you.

Su Jingchuan entered the study first.

Walked to the desk, turned on the desk lamp,

The dim yellow light instantly bathed the entire desktop.

He turned around and looked at Luo Yuting.

His lips parted slightly, but he didn't know where to begin.

Luo Yuting stood at the door.

His eyes were filled with doubt and unease.

They waited quietly for Su Jingchuan to speak.

“Yu Ting, I have been entrusted by someone to search for a child who has been missing for many years. Now, all the signs indicate that I suspect you are him.”

Su Jingchuan's expression turned solemn, and he decided to stop beating around the bush.

Let's get straight to the point.

Luo Yuting felt as if he had been electrocuted.

He was suddenly jolted.

His face was full of astonishment.

Then,

He felt as if an invisible hand was tightly gripping his heart.

Breathing also became rapid.

From the age of eight onwards, his memories of the past were like a fog.

It vanished without a trace.

In countless lonely days and nights,

He had secretly speculated,

Perhaps I was cruelly abandoned by my biological parents.

This thought was like a dark cloud.

It lingered in his heart for a long time.

Let him grow up,

Deep down, there was always an unspeakable pain and inferiority complex.

Upon hearing Su Jingchuan's words,

Those deeply buried painful memories surged into my mind like a tide.

His eyes involuntarily reddened slightly.

Her voice trembled slightly as she asked:

"How...how can you be so sure that I'm the one you're looking for?"

"Let me explain in detail."

Su Jingchuan sighed softly.

His gaze was fixed on Luo Yuting with a firm and steady intensity.

He began by briefly and clearly recounting that long-forgotten story.

It turns out that many years ago,

Luo Yuting experienced a terrifying kidnapping when he was a child.

But how did he escape?

unknown,

And the jade pendant he wore

This has become a key clue in the search for his origins.

Su Jingchuan recounted all the details he knew.

This includes information such as the style of the jade plaque and the unique patterns and text engraved on it.

Luo Yuting listened to Su Jingchuan's story.

The image of the jade pendant I had always worn involuntarily came to mind.

Today, however, it may be a precious bond connecting oneself with one's biological parents.

Thinking about this, he felt a mix of emotions.

It turns out I wasn't abandoned after all.

Those long-standing self-doubts and pain,

Perhaps it all stemmed from a misunderstanding.

"To be absolutely sure, you'd better do a paternity test first, depending on the specific circumstances."

Su Jingchuan maintained his consistently rigorous attitude.

They did not rush to reveal the identities of Luo Yuting's biological parents.

He knew that without solid scientific evidence,

Any inference may contain biases.

And the results of this paternity test

This will be a crucial step in uncovering the truth.

Luo Yuting nodded silently.

A trace of confusion and disbelief still lingered in his eyes.

It felt like being in a dream from which one could not wake up.

There is a strong sense of unreality.

However, deep inside, a spark of expectation was quietly igniting.

If all of this is true, if I can really find my biological parents, then will the missing piece in my heart that has been missing for so many years be filled?

He longed to have a complete family.

They longed to know where they came from.
