Mo Beihan smiled. “That’s right! This is a chance that the country gave her. When she returns from her overseas studies, she will have to serve the country. She’s a talent that the country is specially cultivating. Otherwise, would Jiang Yiru treasure this opportunity so greatly? Because this signifies that when Yao Yao returns, she would have a promising future!”
Jiang Yingqiu was finally feeling better after hearing that.
She nodded. “I think I understand already. This is all in consideration for the future. It’s indeed a good thing too. We have so many children in our family, and it would be too exhausting if everyone relied on only you to raise them. If Yao Yao has a good job too, you two can have better lives in the future too!”
Mo Beihan: “…”
Would his mother beat him up if she finds out about his and Yao Yao’s true capabilities in the future?
Mo Beihan coughed. “Mother, I came back this time because I have something important to do and something important to tell you as well. But you must promise me that no matter what I say, you must not be too surprised or upset!
“Mother, it’s been so many years, and you’ve suffered a lot. I will take care of you in the future, and you don’t need to worry too much about the kids. I promise to raise them well. From now on, you can lead the life you want and think about what you like and want to do.
“There’s still time now that you aren’t very old yet. Otherwise, when you’re really old in the future, you won’t have the energy to do what you want!”
Jiang Yingqiu frowned. “What are you saying? What do you mean by what I want to do? The kids are still so young, and Yao Yao is overseas too. I must raise these kids first. I don’t wish to do anything. I just hope that these kids have food to eat and clothes to wear and remain safe and sound.”
Mo Beihan sighed. His mother had spent her entire life on her kids. In the past, it was on him and his elder brother, and subsequently, it was on Chengrui and Chengxu, and now, there were the youngest Xiao Jing and Mu Mu.
His mother had never thought nor lived for herself.
With a sigh, Mo Beihan said, “Mother, I… I know where that man is already!”
Jiang Yingqiu did not react in time. “Who?”
“My father!”
“Oh! He…”
Jiang Yingqiu did not internalize his words at first, but when she did, she paused abruptly and looked at Mo Beihan in a faze.
That man was a very distant memory of hers. In the earlier years, she was hurt and angry, but afterward, her mind was only placed on her children.
Over these years, she had only been yearning for her children to grow up safely and for Beihan to get married and start his family early.
That man… What did he look like again?
Jiang Yingqiu was stunned!
Mo Beihan sighed softly. “Mother, he is not dead. He is the eldest son of a powerful family in the capital. Last year, my biological grandparents found me and found out that they have a grandson, which is me, and great-grandsons, including Chengxu and Chengrui.
“When that man returned, he never mentioned to his family about us. He remarried the daughter of a powerful family and gave birth to a child. Throughout all these years, Grandfather and Grandmother don’t know about our existence.
“It was a coincidence that Grandfather found me. After finding me, he apologized to me and said that he wants to compensate me. He even gave that man a good lesson. In the past year or so, Grandfather and I have been in contact, and he even sent us New Year gifts last year! Those clothes, shoes, food and necessities were all prepared by Grandfather and Grandmother. Even Yao Yao has them. Do you remember?”
Jiang Yingqiu was dumbfounded still as she looked at Mo Beihan, speechless.
