"So, I didn't see wrong back then after all...."
"If only I had been a little more careful at the time!"
"Maybe my daughter wouldn't have suffered so much these eighteen years!!!"
"........"
Upon learning that her biological daughter had not been living well at all all these years, not only constantly suffering the beatings and abuse of a malicious couple, but now also unfortunately stricken with stomach cancer.....
As a mother, Xu Shuyun felt as if her heart were being sliced with knives and was overwhelmed with guilt.
"Mom? Are you okay! Σ(⊙▽⊙"a Why are you suddenly crying?"
At the side, Tang Chuan was completely dumbfounded.
In his impression, his mother had always been the cold CEO type, rarely showing intense emotional swings.
He hadn't expected her to be so sentimental today—brought to tears of sympathy 〒▽〒 after learning of the girl's tragic experience.....
"I'm fine."
Xu Shuyun came back to herself and realized she had lost her composure without meaning to.
She took a deep breath, quickly adjusted her emotions, stood up, and strode rapidly toward the door.....
"Mom, where are you going? You haven't given me your advice yet!"
"Stay home and behave. I'm going to the hospital... to see her."
"Huh?! Mom, you're going to the hospital yourself now? Are you going to teach that beastly cousin a lesson? And rescue that poor girl while you're at it? I'll go with you!"
"No need. Stay home properly! You're not allowed to come and make trouble!"
"......."
Tang Chuan stopped in his tracks, (＃￣～￣＃) standing there gloomily.
He had planned, while his mom was scolding Lin Xuan, to pretend to say a few nice words for him, first gaining some favor from his beast cousin as a foundation for rescuing his idol [L].
He absolutely hadn't expected....
To fall before even starting the mission?!
Forget it, when the boat reaches the bridge, it will straighten itself out!!!
There will always be a way.....
This world devoid of musical aesthetic needs [L], and [L] will surely be saved by him, the savior!!!
While Tang Chuan was having a cerebral climax and fantasizing nonstop......
The distraught Xu Shuyun had already rushed out of the villa gate.
With her exclusive driver bowing and scraping, she got into a Mercedes-Maybach S-Class Haute Voiture.
Vroooom——
As the car roared to life, Xu Shuyun in the back seat finally calmed a little, though she still felt dazed and unsettled.
It had been many years since she had lost her cool like today because of intense emotional turmoil and completely lost her composure.
The shock of the sudden news had blasted her mind into blankness, leaving her unable to think normally for a time.....
Who could have imagined.....
That the Xiao Rou she had poured all her effort into raising with painstaking care was not actually her biological daughter???
From eighteen years ago......
The two children's lives had been swapped by that malicious couple on purpose.....
Their daughter enjoyed wealth and endless family doting in the Tang family.
While her own biological daughter.....
Had been living in hell since childhood, suffering every kind of inhuman abuse every day, living a life worse than death.....
At this thought, an inexplicable tightness pressed on Xu Shuyun's chest, her eyes reddening again, sour with tears.
She didn't know how to face this matter, or how to face that pitiful child?!
Still less did she know how to explain it to the family........
All these years, everyone had treated Tang Rou as one of the family, doting on her as a true daughter, a true younger sister.....
Now she had to tell them a cruel, cruel truth.....
Not only was Tang Rou not the Tang family's biological daughter or sister!
Her parents were even vicious to the extreme—the very culprits who caused the true family's separation and suffering?!!!
"......"
"And what about Xiao Rou—how am I supposed to tell her?"
"No matter how vicious her parents are, that child is innocent....."
"If she suddenly learns this news, what kind of blow will it deal to her heart?!"
"Sigh, I should have noticed long ago?! Xiao Rou's looks really aren't that similar to ours!"
"But no one ever thought in that direction before, and we just subconsciously ignored it....."
"........"
Staring at the scenery slipping backward outside the window, Xu Shuyun frowned tightly, her heart twisted with anxiety.
At the same time, she pressed at her temples, sighing inwardly over and over.
But soon, she suddenly shook her head, deciding to temporarily cast aside the distracting thoughts in her heart.
After all, the most urgent task now... was to go to the hospital and meet her biological daughter......
At this very moment.
An hour had already passed since the video was successfully posted, yet its popularity only kept climbing higher, remaining firmly at the top of the trending list, practically glued there.
Countless warm-hearted netizens had noticed a girl named "Chu Ling," and were moved to tears by her tragic experience, all leaving comforting comments for her in the comment section.....
(?"? ?)?"(???︿???).
Magic City First People's Hospital.
In the ward.
Su Qingge was scrolling through the comment section and showing Chu Ling the messages of concern one by one.
"Chu Ling, look! So many people online are encouraging and supporting you!"
"Mm, everyone is so gentle and kind!"
Staring at those heartwarming comments, Chu Ling's eyes grew moist, and warmth filled her heart.
Countless people were praying for her, hoping she'd find her biological parents soon, defeat her illness, and get through this ordeal.
She didn't know how long it had been since she last felt this kind of concern from strangers.....
Indeed....
As long as everyone gives a little love, the world will become a better place.....
"I wonder if my real mom and dad have already seen this video?"
"If they have..... will they be able to recognize me and come to find me?"
"........"
As she thought this, Chu Ling's heart was full of hope.
In all those years gone by......
The only memories her family had left her were pain and loneliness.
Now she longed so much for true family affection, to return to the side of her real family......
