Addiction sets in at night; even the abstinent older man has fallen for it.

Mu Tiantian was conflicted.

She desperately wants to find her biological parents and unravel the mystery of her origins.

But the thought of being separated from Jiang Hui made him stop thinking about it.

There is a fear of the future, and an instinctive urge to avoid it.

But the woman's words, "I've finally found you," were filled with such emotion that it didn't sound like she had abandoned her; rather, it sounded like she had been searching for her all along.

It would be too cruel for her biological mother if she didn't do a paternity test.

No matter what, we must solve this question.

How did she separate from her parents back then?

She looked at Ling Jieyu with a puzzled expression. "Why did you bring Aunt Xia to see me?"

"Because I have a strange sense of familiarity with you. Aunt Xia had a three-year-old daughter who went missing. At first, I couldn't remember where I had met you, until I saw the photos on Aunt Xia's phone," Ling Jieyu explained in detail.

At first, he thought it was some one-night stand, but seeing that Mu Tiantian didn't recognize him at all and even helped Fu Zhengting scold him, he rejected the idea.

After all, twenty years have passed, and it's impossible to connect what they looked like as children with what they looked like as adults at first glance.

However, the overall facial features and expression remain fixed.

So when he saw photos of Ruohan as a child, he immediately had his answer.

Seeing Mu Tiantian's disbelieving look, Xia Guiying quickly took out her phone, opened a picture of her daughter when she was little, and showed it to Mu Tiantian. "Look, this is what you looked like when you were little. Your big eyes were the most beautiful. I recognized you at a glance."

As she spoke, a very important question came to mind, and she asked urgently, "Where is your adoptive mother? Did she take any photos of you when you were little?"

She desperately wanted to see her daughter's adoptive mother and asked, "Is she good to you? Has she ever hit you?"

I'm afraid that some vicious woman will take my daughter in, raise her as a servant, and then marry her off to get a dowry.

Looking at Xia Guiying's anxious and worried expression, Mu Tiantian felt a warm current flow through her heart. She shook her head, "She never hit me. She's been incredibly kind to me!"

After I finished speaking, my eyes felt incredibly sore for some reason.

Jiang Hui is a good mother, and judging from Aunt Xia's anxious reaction, she is also a good mother who loves her daughter very much.

Jiang Hui, who was in the ward, was also heartbroken.

But at the same time, I felt gratified.

It seems that Sweetie's biological mother does love her, but rather loves her very much.

She really wanted to go out and look at the photos to confirm if the person she was looking for was Tian Tian, ​​but she held back.

She took photos of Tian Tian when she was little, and a lot of them.

Sweetie can judge anything just by looking at herself.

The woman's intuition told her that the woman outside was very likely Sweetie's biological mother.

Mu Tiantian looked down at the photos on Xia Guiying's phone and froze.

Ling Jieyu knew the answer as soon as he saw Mu Tiantian's reaction.

He knew that Mu Tiantian must be Xiao Ruohan.

Because I feel this thing is very magical.

Xia Guiying exclaimed excitedly, "Xiao Ruohan, didn't your adoptive mother take pictures of you when you were little? You recognized her!"

As she spoke, she flipped through the photos in the album to show Mu Tiantian.

"Do you know, when our whole family went out to look for you, a thief broke into our house and robbed us. Not only did he steal things, but he also set fire to the villa. I had so many photos of you printed and framed, and they were all burned!"

She was so angry she could grind her teeth, "but luckily I have a lot saved on my phone and WeChat."

I miss my daughter, but at least I can look at her photos.

My daughter was so adorable when she was little. I couldn't help but take hundreds of pictures of her every day, especially when I bought her new clothes. I could never get enough of taking pictures of her looking so pretty in them.

Her phone's photo album was full of pictures of her daughter, and she specially switched to a phone with the largest memory to save more photos.

Later, fearing that the photos would be lost again, she backed them up and copied all the photos over when she changed phones.

Looking at these photos, she naturally revealed a loving and gentle smile.

Mu Tiantian felt Xia Guiying's gentleness and love, and a warm current flowed through her heart once again.

She saw the image of motherly love in Jiang Hui.

I saw it in my birth mother as well.

I had some doubts at first, but after seeing these photos, even without a paternity test, I can be pretty sure.

Because the photos saved on her biological mother's phone were almost identical to those saved by Jiang Hui.

One of the photos shows the person wearing the exact same clothes.

It must be the one she was wearing the day she went missing.

Jiang Hui still kept that outfit. No wonder she gave all the other clothes to her sister's granddaughter but kept that one.

Xia Guiying pointed to the photo, holding the phone up higher so Mu Tiantian could see it more clearly. "You were wearing this outfit the day you went missing, Xiao Ruohan, do you remember?"

She has no memory of being three years old; I wonder if Xiao Ruohan does.

She asked many people, and most of them only had memories of the age of five or six.

Mu Tiantian thought about it carefully, then shook her head.

She only remembers things from when she was six years old.

Xiao Ruohan.

She silently repeated the name in her heart.

She didn't know whether to be happy or sad; she was confused and had mixed feelings.

Xia Guiying originally wanted to ask Mu Tiantian if she remembered how she got lost back then, but seeing Mu Tiantian shake her head, she stopped herself from asking.

My daughter's reaction is normal.

Anyone would need a process of digestion and adaptation.

Seeing that Mu Tiantian was looking at the photo without saying anything, she pointed to the clothes in the photo and asked, "Do you recognize the clothes in this picture? You loved wearing this outfit when you were little."

Mu Tiantian couldn't bear to deny it and nodded again.

Having received a satisfactory answer, Xia Guiying hugged Mu Tiantian again, "Little Ruohan, do you know how agonizing it has been for your mother all these years searching for you?"

She didn't say it was hard work, she said it was agonizing.

For her, no matter how hard it was, it wasn't bitter; what was unbearable was the agonizing feeling of searching for a needle in a haystack.

"Thank goodness Mom finally found you! Thank God you're still alive!" Xia Guiying said, hugging Mu Tiantian tightly.

Mu Tiantian recalled the scene of family reunion on the news, where the two hugged each other and cried.

Those scenes were heartbreaking to watch; I never imagined they would happen to her one day.

The birth mother just said that the villa was burned down. She doesn't know what she has gone through all these years of searching for her. She has seen movies about child abduction and knows how difficult it is to find a child.

After being separated for so many years, it felt strange to meet again. I felt awkward and uncomfortable, but I also felt sorry for you.

He raised his hand, wanting to hug Xia Guiying back, but he just felt awkward.

She couldn't bear to break the heart of her birth mother who had been searching for her for so many years, so she finally overcame her awkwardness and hugged Xia Guiying back.

Xia Guiying smiled happily, her eyes filled with tears.

These are tears of joy.

This hug brought her comfort after twenty years of hardship.

Her search was worthwhile.

However, she could also sense Mu Tiantian's stiffness and unfamiliarity.

She had thought about this problem long ago, after all, she and her daughter had been separated for many years, and she understood.

She will gradually build a mother-daughter bond with her.

But she also worries that her daughter's heart is only filled with her adoptive mother, and that she won't give her the opportunity to build a family bond.

She looked up at Mu Tiantian and made a request, "Xiao Ruohan, may I meet your... foster mother?"

In the past, her adoptive mother was like her biological mother to her daughter. She wonders if her daughter will feel uncomfortable hearing her call her that.

But if I don't call her foster mother, I don't know what else to call her.

Hearing the word "foster mother" through the door, Jiang Hui felt a tightness in her chest and a heavy feeling in her heart.

Mu Tiantian herself felt bad listening to this. She was afraid of waking Jiang Hui inside, so she didn't want Jiang Hui to know that her birth mother had come to find her for the time being.

I wonder if Jiang Hui has woken up inside yet?

She didn't want Jiang Hui to be upset by these words.

He lowered his voice slightly and said to Xia Guiying, "She's sleeping inside right now, she might not be fully awake yet. I'll arrange for you to meet after she wakes up, okay?"

She needed to find a way to let Jiang Hui know that her biological mother had come to see her, in a way that would make her feel as comfortable as possible.

Xia Guiying glanced at the closed ward door. Just a door away, she was really curious about what kind of woman was inside.

But since her daughter said that, she couldn't force her to do it.

Perhaps the daughter needs to be mentally prepared before meeting her adoptive mother.

She couldn't help but guess that this showed her daughter and adoptive mother had a very good relationship.

Thinking about this makes me feel a little uneasy.

The kindness of a foster mother is greater than that of a birth mother.

This is a problem that many lost children face when they are reunited with their biological parents.

She shouldn't be jealous; she should give her daughter time to adjust.

She smiled and nodded, asking with concern, "Is she alright? Is there anything seriously wrong?"

"I had a stomach problem before, but I'm much better after the surgery," Mu Tiantian replied truthfully.

Therefore, she did not want Jiang Hui to know about this at this time.

We have to keep this from Jiang Hui until she is fully recovered and discharged from the hospital.

She pulled Xia Guiying along and walked towards the elevator.

Xiao Hailan helped Mu Tiantian up.

Xia Guiying, supporting herself on the other side, then noticed Xiao Hailan.

My attention was completely on Mu Tiantian just now, and I didn't even glance at Xiao Hailan.

Upon closer inspection, I realized it was someone I knew.

No, they should be enemies!

Although Xiao Hailan and Fu Zhenlong were divorced, they were still husband and wife, so she disliked Xiao Hailan as well.

Her face immediately darkened. "It's you!"

It's really disgusting.

Not wanting Xiao Hailan to support Mu Tiantian, she tried to push her away.

But she didn't want to show her unhappiness in front of Mu Tiantian.

I finally found my daughter, so I want to make a good impression on her.

Xiao Hailan greeted him with an awkward smile, "What a coincidence, I didn't expect to run into you here."

At first, she didn't recognize Xia Guiying, after all, they hadn't been in contact for more than ten years.

It wasn't until Ling Jieyu said "Aunt Xia" and she saw the photo of Xiao Ruohan on Xia Guiying's phone that she recognized her.

If Tian Tian really is the lost Ruohan from back then, is the relationship between the son and Tian Tian a destined one or a tragic one?

She couldn't help but worry about this problem for her son.

Mu Tiantian looked at Xiao Hailan in shock, then at Xia Guiying.

The two met unexpectedly.

Xiao Hailan smiled at Mu Tiantian, unsure how to explain it to her.

Fu Zhenlong committed too many sins; if she were Qin Dongyang, she would never forgive him.

With such deep-seated grudges, how could they possibly become in-laws?

She is now worried not only about whether her son will wake up, but also about whether he will be able to be with Mu Tiantian after he wakes up.

Fortunately, Xiao Ruohan has been found.

She hoped that Mu Tiantian was Xiao Ruohan.

Seeing that Xiao Hailan had nothing to say, Xia Guiying gave a mocking sneer.

Xiao Hailan was self-aware enough to know that the Fu family owed the Qin family something, and she was too ashamed to say it.

Xiao Hailan couldn't stand the sarcasm and felt it necessary to clarify, "Ms. Xia, the sins Fu Zhenlong committed have nothing to do with me or my son. I hate him more than you do!"

Xia Guiying knew that Xiao Hailan and Fu Zhenlong's marriage was not going well, but no matter what, it couldn't change the fact that Xiao Hailan had once been Fu Zhenlong's wife.

I just felt that none of the family members were good people.

Thinking about her daughter being with Fu Zhengting, her brows furrowed even more.

Mu Tiantian was completely confused, but seeing Xia Guiying's complicated expression, she realized something was wrong.

Xia Guiying didn't know how to explain to Mu Tiantian that they had only just recognized each other and she didn't want to talk about those unhappy things.

However, after recognizing each other, she was determined not to let her daughter be with Fu Zhengting.

Even if she agreed, Qin Dongyang would never agree.

Ling Jieyu looked at Mu Tiantian, who was completely bewildered, and twitched the corner of his mouth.

After they recognize each other, Mu Tiantian's situation will become very awkward and difficult.

Just as Mu Tiantian was about to ask for clarification, Ling Jieyu spoke up first, "You two, the most important thing right now is to take Mu Tiantian to get her blood drawn. In any case, a paternity test report is the only way to directly prove whether Mu Tiantian is Xiao Ruohan."

Xia Guiying suppressed her resentment and nodded in agreement.

While intuition can be accurate, paternity testing is still necessary.

Ling Jieyu looked at Mu Tiantian and reminded her, "Once the paternity test results come out, you'll gradually clear up your doubts."

Once the doubts are cleared up and the truth is understood, Mu Tiantian will have something to worry about.

Mu Tiantian frowned as she listened, disliking Ling Jieyu's cryptic manner, which only made her more curious.

Xiao Hailan agreed, "Tian Tian, ​​let's go get a blood test for paternity first. I'll explain the results to you in detail later."

If the son wakes up and finds out that Tiantian is Qin Dongyang's daughter, he'll be in for a lot of trouble.

Mu Tiantian had no choice but to suppress her curiosity and follow Ling Jieyu to the nursing department with Xia Guiying.

The nurses drew blood from both her and Xia Guiying.

After the blood draw, Xia Guiying made a request, "Tian Tian, ​​your grandfather missed you so much that he hallucinated and fell down the stairs. He's in Dongcheng Hospital now. Would you like to come with me to Dongcheng to see him?"

Fearing her daughter wouldn't get used to the name Xiao Ruohan, she started calling her Tiantian instead.

Mu Tiantian didn't agree immediately, but she couldn't bear to refuse either. She looked at Ling Jieyu as he took the two vials of blood from the nurse's hand, somewhat dazed.

But she knew this wasn't a dream.

She wanted to see her family!

She nodded in agreement.

Xia Guiying smiled happily.

"Before I leave, I need to go back to the ward to see my... current mother!" Mu Tiantian said, her chest tightening as she said the last part about her current mother.

Xia Guiying felt bad too, and her smile became somewhat awkward.

She wanted to help Mu Tiantian over, but Mu Tiantian refused.

Xiao Hailan didn't want to face Xia Guiying, so she took the opportunity to help Mu Tiantian to the ward.

Jiang Hui was crying, but when she heard the door open, she quickly stopped crying. When Mu Tiantian pushed the door open and stood by the hospital bed, she successfully turned over, closed her eyes, and pretended to be asleep.
