Chapter 886: FAMILY REUNION

Later on, she heard from the lawyer how her daughter was treated. Her heart broke. If it wasn't for Nick, her husband's friend who saved her and Lanie, she would've run out for the house, confronted her sister, given her a tight slap and brought her daughter back with her.

Nick calmed her down saying, "Look at your two years old girl. She is so tiny but doing so much to keep you and your newborn son alive, can't you give her a little credit for it. Have a little patience. She is an amazing girl. She will become an excellent person when she grows up."

Zhuan Zhen thought that too until her little Lanie disappeared completely after going to Japan when she was only five. At that time, she felt that some gripped her heart and squeezed it with all their might. She asked Nick desperately to look for her and Nick searched for Lanie over a year secretly but found nothing. Thinking that she lost her child forever this time, she fainted on the spot.

However, she still had some hope. Her heart said that her daughter was alive. Only that hope kept her on living. After her son grew up a little, she opened a secret agency and her son worked under her. He was the first to find his elder sister in Beijing. Then, he told his mother that he went to visit her (spying on her) and found out that she was awesome.

Zhuan Zhen was so happy that she cried. She finally got to know that her daughter was doing okay. Afterward, her son would spy on Mu Lan and took several pictures of her daily life to show it to his mother.

And here she was, after all these years, she got to hug her daughter. She felt like her heart that was taken away once, was given back to her. She softly said, "You are so brave, Lanie. You did a wonderful job coming by yourself. I've heard so many things about you. I'm so proud of my daughter."

Mu Lan cried even more. "Mommy... Thank you for believing in me. Thank you for loving me. I missed you a lot."

"Oh Lanie, mommy missed her little daughter too." Zhuan Zhen patted her daughter's back.

"Sorry to interrupt, beautiful ladies. I think there is someone else you want to meet." Jonah said from the doorway.

Zhuan Zhen and Mu Lan looked at him and saw Professor Ryuren beside him. Jonah couldn't wait to meet his father whom he never saw before and rushed to meet him. However, he didn't expect that his father would look so young. He was puzzled when he first met him. But Professor Ryuren recognized him the moment he saw his son's face for the first time. Jonah resembled his wife so much so that he looked like his wife's younger brother.

The husband and wife finally met. Both of them were prepared in their hearts. Professor Ryuren knew that since his son was here, then his wife would be here. And Zhuan Zhen knew that her husband and daughter were here, that's why she was here as well. They looked at each other for a second and then both abandoned their children and strode towards each other. They greased each other's hands and intertwined their fingers. They looked at each other with tears in their eyes and leaned forward to put their foreheads against each other.

Zhuan Zhen sighed. "I knew you were alive. I had faith in you. I knew one day you would come to me. And I wasn't wrong."

Professor Ryuren smiled at her. "You were never wrong. You were so brave holding it by yourself. You did a great job raising our son. Did I come too late?"

Zhuan Zhen shook her head slightly. "Not at all. It's perfect timing."

Professor Ryuren gazed at her deeply. He missed her so much. He knew that she would never remarry and it was hard on her. As her husband, he couldn't stay by her side. He apologized from the deepest part of his heart, "Sorry I was late."

Zhuan Zhen started complaining, "What took you so long? Did you know how worried I was? Did you eat well? How come you still look so young?"

Professor Ryuren didn't hide anything from her. He replied, "I was in a vegetated state. I was saved by my friends. I don't know why I look young. Maybe it's because of the medicine they gave me."

Zhuan Zhen glanced at his young face and said, "I'm getting old. Will you still be okay with me?"

Professor Ryuren chuckled and rubbed his nose against hers. "Silly girl! What are you worrying about? You are the most beautiful wife in the world. No matter what happens, all I need is you."

Zhuan Zhen smiled shyly. "Oh, you! Always saying something to make him happy. You haven't changed at all."

"I will never change as long as you are by my side." Professor Ryuren cupped his wife's gorgeous face and kissed her deeply. It had been so long, he craved for her sweet lips.

"Mm!" Zhuan Zhen held onto him and kissed him back. They acted as if nothing mattered to them.

The eldest daughter and the youngest son scratched their heads. They realized that they shouldn't be here disturbing their parents who met after decades. Mu Lan signaled her blushing brother and they left the room without making a single sound.

After closing the door, they sighed in relief. Jonah said, "That was intense! I never thought that our dad would be so romantic. I'm embarrassed."

Mu Lan brushed it off. "It's nothing compared to what I saw every day when I was young."

Jonah remembered something. "But hey! I have a question. Mom never showed me dad's photo but you saw dad's face before. Why didn't you think that uncle Li looked familiar? They resembled each other a lot." If she discovered it when Li Shen took her to the Li house, she would have escaped the disaster.
