Chapter 414: Not Worthy of Him

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lu Haiying tried her best to remain calm and collected. She did her utmost to prevent her emotions from affecting her parents. However, the moment the words fell, she really could not hold it in anymore. She pinched her palm and used the pain to ease her emotions. She persevered in keeping her explanation simple.

“Dad, Mom, I have missed you so much these past two years!” At this point, Lu Haiying was already sobbing and unable to properly complete a sentence.

On the other end of the phone, Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu were even angrier and more anxious, especially when they heard about the kidnapping. They could somehow feel a knife cutting through their hearts. Which family hadn’t treasured their child? Their precious pearl, the darling of their hearts, had actually encountered such a thing!

“How could this be… How did this happen…”

“Yingying, you have suffered…”

“Yingying, don’t cry. We are here. As long as you are fine, it will be all in the past. It is all fine now…”

Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu said one sentence at a time, but they didn’t know what to say to comfort themselves or their daughter.

…..

“Dad, Mom, how are you feeling?” Lu Haiying smiled bitterly. “I’m fine, so don’t worry about me. We’ll see each other soon.”

“We are doing well! Gu Xiao has been taking care of us all these years when you weren’t around. He comes every week…” Mrs. Lu sobbed.

At this point, Mrs. Lu could not help but cry again. “Gu Xiao is really a good child…”

Hearing this name again, Lu Haiying’s tears that she had held back with great difficulty fell again. Her voice trembled as she said, “Mom, is he well?”

“He has been through a lot too. He lost a lot of weight and quit his job to look for you. He has been looking for you for a year, but he couldn’t find any clues. So, he found a random job and searched at work. He even came to visit us on the weekends…” Mrs. Lu nagged, but she did not know that every word she said was like a knife piercing Lu Haiying’s body.

Lu Haiying bit her lower lip tightly as tears fell silently. She asked, “He… Is he married?”

Mrs. Lu cried and said, “No, we tried to persuade him to start a new life. We were really afraid that you wouldn’t return. He has always been like this. We really couldn’t bear to see him like this. But he rejected all the women. He was waiting for you! He said that although the two of you are not married, he already treats you as his wife. He will continue to look for you in this lifetime. If he continues…”

Lu Haiying clenched her fists tightly as she listened. Her nails dug into her palms— causing them to bleed. Gu Xiao was still waiting for her!

When Lu Haiying learned about Gu Xiao’s perseverance, she was both happy and sad. She was happy that he still loved her, but sad that she was no longer worthy of him.

Lu Haiying clenched her fists tightly and allowed the blood to flow down her fingers. Drop by drop, it fell on her child’s sleeve.

Chang’an ended up waking up. He opened his eyes in a daze and saw his mother crying. He reached out his small hand to wipe Lu Haiying’s tears.

“Mommy, don’t cry…”His voice wasn’t soft, especially now that it was eerily quiet.

Mrs. Lu, on the other end of the phone, keenly caught it. She was instantly shocked.

“Yingying? Why do 1 hear a child’s voice?”

Lu Haiying bit her lower lip and trembled. She took a deep breath and said, “It’s okay, Mom. There’s a child. Eat something with Dad first and then go to the police station. We still have people waiting to make a call.”

Hearing her daughter’s words, Mrs. Lu could only suppress her doubts for the time being.

“Okay, then you should eat something too.” After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Lu looked worried. “Do you think Yingying will come back with a child?”

“How is that possible?!” Mr. Lu’s eyes widened. As a man, he understood men’s psychology the most. Putting aside the matter of children, he was already tremendously disgusted that his lover had been touched by someone else.

If Yingying really brought back a child… How could they face such a good man like Gu Xiao…

On the other hand, after Lu Haiying put down the phone, she seemed to have lost her soul. She choked a few times.

Chang’an was shocked by her appearance.

Qin Dandan’s heart ached. She had also heard what Lu Haiying was thinking. She placed her hand on Lu Haiying’s shoulder and patted her gently.

“Let nature take its course.”

What else could she do? The child was already there and out in the world…
