Online dating backfired? A wealthy heir begged me to continue lying to him.

Because his younger sister had suffered a lot raising her daughter alone, Su Zhe had no good feelings towards that irresponsible man. He even thought that if he saw that man again, he would beat him up first.

Now, hearing news about that man makes my hands itch with desire.

Su Wanjun looked somewhat dejected.

"He's dead."

"He's been dead for many years."

"He sacrificed himself in a mission before Ruan Ruan was even born."

As he spoke, he clenched his fist, then relaxed it, then clenched it again, and then relaxed it weakly once more.

"Then he can't be absent during his sister's most important time."

But there wasn't a single man who would listen to his accusations.

"I'll go with you," Su Zhe finally said sullenly.

That stinky man just left quietly like that. He had to go and see what kind of man he was, and what kind of parents he had.

The person is dead, but Su Zhe's resentment has not subsided.

His sister had waited for him for so many years.

If he had let her know he was dead sooner, his sister might have found new happiness.

What's going on with disappearing?!

Furthermore, even with his resources, he couldn't find any information about that man. If it weren't for that, his sister wouldn't have had to wait for so many years.

When the car drove into the military hospital.

Su Zhe knew that his fist had been clenched for nothing today.

But he still held his head high and chest out.

In any case, you must have enough momentum.

It was their family that bullied his sister; they deserve an explanation.

In the hospital ward, he saw his niece again, who looked remarkably like him, the niece he had waited for for three years and who had finally returned.

Su Ruan stared intently at Su Wanjun.

This was the first time she had seen her biological mother face-to-face since she returned.

Unlike the partial images I remembered, the mother in front of me was three-dimensional, vivid, and warm.

And she looks younger than I remember.

A well-maintained face can subtly cover up the signs of aging.

But that gentle smile was just as familiar as ever.

"mom!"

"Why!"

The mother and daughter embraced tightly.

The long-awaited reunion was finally realized at this moment.

There were three years of anxiety and unease, and eighteen years of blankness and confusion.

At this moment, all the unease and fear transformed into a real embrace.

After the mother and daughter met, they held hands and looked at the elderly man on the hospital bed.

The old man still looked the same as I remembered, except that his hair was whiter and he was thinner.

But he seems to be in pretty good spirits.

The old man looked at the mother and daughter with a kind and gentle smile.

"I never imagined that you were the person Chengze had been longing for."

"We've been neighbors for 20 years, maybe it was fate."

Su Wanjun was also deeply moved.

She thought the man who had disappeared was now by her side in another way.

"Aunt Fu..."

"Call me Mom!"

Su Wanjun bit her lip gently, but still called out, "Mom!"

"Why!"

"Our Chengze owes you a wedding, and Mom will make it up to you!"

Su Wanjun's eyes were slightly red.

Su Zhe clenched his fist repeatedly.

That man is dead, why are you still clinging to his sister?

But looking at Su Wanjun's slightly red eyes, he could only sigh inwardly.

It's because his sister has set her sights on that man!

Grandma Fu reached out and grasped Su Wanjun's hand.

"If you're willing, you can be our Gu family's daughter-in-law."

Two streams of tears slid down Su Wanjun's cheeks.

"mom!"

Grandma Fu smiled, tears welling in her eyes, and patted Su Wanjun's hand.

"Good child! We'll arrange it in a couple of days. We'll go and meet your future in-laws, and then we'll hold a wedding ceremony for you."

"We don't need a wedding," Su Wanjun said.

"As long as Mom acknowledges me, that's enough."

"Okay! I'll do whatever you say! Mom acknowledges you, how could Mom not acknowledge you!"

"The photo that Chengze kept in his pocket was of the small town where you lived."

"I think if he could come back, he would definitely go to the town to find you, marry you, and grow old together..."

Su Wanjun listened, tears streaming down her face.

If he could come back, perhaps they really would grow old together.

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs".

Inside the hotel, Su Zhe was still trying to persuade him: "You're still young, do you really want to hang yourself on that crooked tree?"

"I won't stop you from recognizing your relatives, but..."

"You don't understand," Su Wanjun interrupted him.

"When a person meets someone too amazing when they are young, they are unable to accept a new relationship."

"Even though I knew back then that the reason he didn't come looking for me was probably because he couldn't come back, I still deceived myself and hoped that one day he would appear in that small town."

"You!"

"How could our Su family produce such a philanderer!"

"Fine, whatever. I can support you anyway, or there's nothing wrong with building your career."

"What about Mom's birthday party tomorrow?"

"They all know you're coming back, and they're all eagerly waiting for you!"

"I didn't dare tell them you were coming back today."

"Thanks!"

"Thank you for not telling your family the moment you found me."

"Thank you for giving me time, thank you for helping me regain my dignity."

"You!"

"We're all family, you really don't need to care about those things."

Su Wanjun remained silent.

If her parents were just an ordinary family, that would be one thing.

But unfortunately, they are the Su family of Kyoto.

With her pride, how could she possibly choose to go home when she was at her lowest point!

Moreover, not long after, her daughter experienced another bizarre incident.

I had a good night's rest.

When I woke up, the styling team had also rushed back.

Fu Xiao personally escorted Su Ruan to the hotel.

"Quick, pick one! Which dress do you like?"

"It's okay to pick a few."

"Whatever you pick out, I'll have them release as next season's new designs."

"What our Ruanruan wears must be unique."

"Mom, if you spoil me like this, I'll go astray."

"So what! Our Ruan Ruan is going to be a little princess!"

"Look, these are all pieces of jewelry I've accumulated over the years. They're all perfect for young girls. Choose whichever set suits you best; they're all yours."

Su Ruan's heart raced as she looked at the sparkling gems in front of her.

Indeed, no woman can resist the allure of high-end gemstones.

Its purity, its clarity, its color, its brilliance—every aspect of it draws the eye.

Su Wanjun held the dress and jewels and tried them on Su Ruan again and again, as if she wanted to dress Su Ruan up as the most beautiful princess today.

Su Ruan cooperated and acted like a doll, letting her mother and the stylists do whatever they wanted to her body, face, and hair.

She was well aware that today was her and her mother's first appearance at the Su family home, and also their first appearance in front of Su family relatives and friends.

They don't need to reveal their past misery.

Although the mother and daughter never thought their past was miserable.

But in the eyes of the world, they cannot be the pitiful ones.

Neither she nor her mother would allow it.

This is their own pride.

They are going home, not beggars waiting for alms.
