Lin Ru was actually in a panic now. She dared not think about what would happen if her father was really President Tang. Could she really go to visit President Tang to talk to him about this matter? Would he think she was a liar? Perhaps he no longer wanted to find his daughter now.

At her age, she had experienced many ups and downs in her life and had even been betrayed by her so-called ‘families’. She was very uneasy now. She had experienced too much this year. She had found her own daughter, known that she was actually not that devil couple’s daughter and got the hope to find her real parents. All of these were unimaginable to her before. Sometimes, she even wondered whether she was dreaming or not.

Lin Ru’s expression kept changing. She looked lost, anticipant and yet afraid. Seeing her like this, Tang Xi felt sorry for her.

She didn’t like Lin Ru at first, because the latter even abandoned her own daughter, but after she knew that her daughter was actually set up, her attitude towards Xiao Rou was completely changed, which showed that Lin Ru was not a cold-blooded woman. She just cared about her family too much.

From Lin Ru’s later careful attitude to her, she learned that Lin Ru was actually reluctant to abandon her and she regretted what she had done to her. Then after knowing what Lin Ru had experienced since she was a kid, she suddenly forgave Lin Ru for Xiao Rou. Lin Ru tried so hard to get what she had now. How could she let what she had owned be suddenly gone? So she began to understand Lin Ru, forgave what she did to Xiao Rou and started to accept her slowly.

Lin Ru didn’t let her down. She could see Lin Ru’s change, and now…

She was really sorry for Lin Ru, especially when she learned that Lin Ru was actually her aunt.

That car accident took Grandma away. Although Grandma was reincarnated, Aunt lost her parents in that accident and was taken away by an evil woman. That woman abused her since her childhood, and even…

Tang Xi couldn’t imagine what a difficult life Lin Ru was living when she was little. She hoped Lin Ru was really her aunt, and then Grandpa and herself would treat her well and make it up to her.

“Mom, President Tang has been looking for you for most of his life. Now you know he might be your father. How can you have the heart to keep it from him?” Tang Xi squatted down and gently put her hands on Lin Ru’s knees. She looked up at Lin Ru and said gently, “I remember the news said he is in poor health now. Don’t you want to accompany your biological father in his last years?”

Lin Ru’s hands shook harder and she looked at Tang Xi uneasily, “May I?”

Tang Xi nodded. “Sure. If you’re not his daughter, we just need to apologize to him, but what if you are really his daughter? Are you willing to miss the chance to find your real father?” Tang Xi took Lin Ru’s hands and said gently, “Mom, I don’t want you to miss the chance to see your real father.”

Seeing Lin Ru almost persuaded by her, Tang Xi continued, “Let’s go to the capital right now.”

Lin Ru took a look at Tang Xi in surprise and was about to speak, when Yang Jingxian came in. She looked at them and said gently, “Rourou, someone wants to see you.”

Tang Xi looked back at her and Yang Jingxian pursed her lips. “It’s Mr. Tang, President of the Empire Group. Now he is chatting with your grandpa in the living room. Come on, go to meet him.”

Lin Ru looked at Tang Xi in astonishment. Tang Xi gave her a reassuring look but felt excited. Grandpa had come, which meant that he had found out about something. It seemed that she did find her aunt.

Tang Xi had a complicated feeling now. Her mother was actually her aunt, and the one who should be her aunt became her mother. But she didn’t have time to think about it, so she supported Lin Ru to get up and said with a smile, “Mom, now you won’t be afraid, will you?”

Yang Jingxian looked at Tang Xi in confusion and the latter smiled at her and said, “Mommy, Mom might have found her real father.”

Yang Jingxian was shocked and she pointed to the living room. “You mean, President Tang might be Ah Ru’s father?”

Tang Xi nodded with a smile. “I was sceptical at first, but after I went to the detention house, I was sure my guess was right. Now Mr.Tang has come in person. I think he probably came for this matter. Now we just need to wait for the result of the paternity test.”

Yes, Tang Xi thought they should do a paternity test to first affirm the truth, and secondly to let everyone be convinced.

“Then what are you waiting for?!” Yang Jingxian was even more excited than Lin Ru. She took Lin Ru’s hand and walked out quickly. “Hurry up. That’s your father who you’ve always wanted to see.”

After hearing what Lin Ru said to her last night, Yang Jingxian felt really sorry for Lin Ru for the tragedy she had experienced. To her surprise, it had been only a night and her father had come to her.

Grandpa Xiao, sitting in the living room, was at a loss as to what was going on here. ‘That’ President Tang had come to his house to visit his daughter-in-law and little granddaughter?

“Mr. Tang, please have a cup of tea. Nice to meet you.” Grandpa Xiao said politely to Tang Zhenhua. “I’ve had the servants prepare the lunch. Please give me a chance to treat you to lunch.”

Seeing Xiao Zhihe so polite, Tang Zhenhua said with a smile, “Mr. Xiao, nice to meet you too. I’m sorry I have come to visit you uninvited. But I have something urgent and I can’t wait anymore. Please forgive me.”

“May I ask why you want to see my daughter-in-law and granddaughter, Mr. Tang?” Xiao Zhihe asked with a smile.

Tang Zhenhua paused. He took a look at Xiao Zhihe and smiled. “Well, I’d like to…”

Before he finished, he spotted Tang Xi and Lin Ru. He stood up from the chair in excitement, and Tang Zhong standing beside him hurriedly supported him. “Master, calm down.”

At the very moment Lin Ru saw Tang Zhenhua, tears flew out of her eyes.
