Star City, Long's Dining Hall.
In the luxurious presidential suite, Tang Guosheng was sitting on the sofa in the living room. He had quit smoking for more than ten years, but now, he lit a cigarette. Even if his children tried to stop him, he couldn't extinguish it. His old face was deeply wrinkled, and his eyes swept over the mobile phone on the coffee table in front of him from time to time.
Wait!
He was waiting for the information. This was the order he issued after leaving Star City Chinese Medical Hospital.
Ring, ring, ring …
The ringtone of the mobile phone finally sounded in Tang Guosheng's expectation.
"Speak …"
Tang Guosheng extinguished his cigarette and picked up the phone, speaking with an extremely serious tone.
A voice came from the phone, "Chief, Tan Xiu's information has been investigated. He's 20 years old this year and has excellent grades. This year, he won the Shuangqing Province Science Prize. His hometown is the Su Family Village in Qinghe County. He has no father and was raised by his mother, Su Lingyun. He has a grandmother in his hometown … "
When Tang Guosheng heard that Tan Xiu was 20 years old, he suddenly stood up. But when he heard the name "Su Lingyun", his old body couldn't help but tremble.
He was sure!
Tan Xiu was his grandson.
His age matched.
Single parent, only mother, matched.
Su Lingyun, and the last word was Little Yun, which matched his youngest son's description.
Tang Guosheng didn't believe that so many coincidences were purely coincidental.
After listening to the report …
After a long while, he slowly sat back on the sofa. His eyes were a bit moist and complicated. He understood and understood Tan Xiu's anger and Tan Xiu's hatred. His youngest son's matter happened too suddenly that he didn't have time to explain to Su Lingyun.
But!
He didn't understand why Su Lingyun didn't go to the Imperial Capital to find the Tang Family for so many years. Didn't she know that she had given birth to a grandson of the Tang Family and was already their daughter-in-law?
Tang Yunpeng stood at the side and looked at his father's complicated expression. After hesitating for a long time, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Dad, what's the result?"
Tang Guosheng slowly raised his head and looked at his children and nephew in front of him. He nodded and said, "That's right. Tan Xiu is really your brother's son, my grandson. "
Tang Yunpeng quickly said, "But his age …"
Tang Guosheng said, "That's an excuse of not wanting to recognize us. His real age was 20 years old, and he only had one mother, Su Lingyun, and no father. He grew up in his grandmother's house in the countryside. "
In an instant.
Tang Yunpeng, Tang Xia, and Tang Dong immediately understood.
"Dad, we can't ignore him since he's a descendant of our Tang Family," said Tang Yunpeng in a deep voice. Whether he's willing or not, he has to return to the Imperial Capital with us and kowtow in front of the ancestral shrine. Moreover, his medical skills are extremely amazing. He can even cure your asthma for so many years. Perhaps he really has the confidence to save Yunde from his coma. "
Tang Guosheng bitterly shook his head and sighed, "It's a must. However, this process would probably be very difficult. You've also seen the hatred he showed after he confirmed our identity in his heart. The hatred that has been accumulating for 20 years won't disappear in a short period of time. Besides, our Tang Family really doesn't have the qualifications to ask anything from him. Not to mention that he cured my asthma, he and his mother have been living a lonely and destitute life for so many years. I believe they have suffered a lot and suffered a lot. "
Tang Xia pondered for a moment and asked, "Dad, what's your decision?"
Tang Guosheng said in a deep voice, "I'll go to Qinghe County myself. I'll go now and arrange a car for me. "
"I'll go too!"
"I'll go too!"
Tang Yunpeng and Tang Xia called out in unison.
Tang Dong opened his mouth, but he was afraid that his uncle would reprimand him, so he held back.
Tang Guosheng shook his head and said, "Xiaoxia will go with me. Yunpeng, our Tang Family has been in a very unstable stage because of my illness. You must return to the Imperial Capital to help your Third Uncle stabilize the situation. Also, settle Xiaotong's matter as soon as possible. Even if we have to exchange some benefits with the other party, we must let her take that position. This will be helpful for our Tang Family's escape route in advance. "
"This … alright!"
Tang Yunpeng hesitated for a moment before he reluctantly agreed.
Qinghe County, Su Family Village.
Tan Xiu entered his grandmother's courtyard and saw his mother washing his grandmother's bedding, while Su Xiangfei was helping to dry the clean clothes.
"Huh? Xiu, didn't you say you won't come back for the time being? Why … "Upon seeing Tan Xiu, Su Lingyun suddenly looked surprised and got up to ask.
Tan Xiu looked at Su Xiangfei, and then spoke to Su Lingyun, "Mom, I have a very important matter to discuss with you. Let's find a quiet place."
"What important matter?" Su Lingyun was confused.
Tan Xiu walked toward the side room where he lived and said, "Mom, you'll know after you come with me. But you have to be mentally prepared. No matter what you hear, don't get excited. "
Su Lingyun couldn't help laughing and said, "You're still pretending to be mysterious, child. Okay, I promise I won't get excited. "
In the side room.
Tan Xiu closed the door from the inside and released his Divine Sense. He found that Su Xiangfei didn't follow to eavesdrop, but sat at the place where his mother had just sat and continued to wash the bedding. He nodded secretly. He turned to look at Su Lingyun and said, "Mom, I met some people today."
Su Lingyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Do you need to report to me when you meet some people? By the way, are those top universities in the country throwing olive branches to you, the top scorer of science in Shuangqing Province? I heard that every year, the top scorer of the college entrance examination in each province will have countless universities scrambling to recruit him! "
Tan Xiu said with a serious face, "Mom, I didn't meet those people from those top universities. They … are all surnamed Tang! "
Su Lingyun stared blankly for a moment before her expression greatly changed.
Tan Xiu said in a deep voice, "There's an old man named Tang Guosheng, his eldest son Tang Yunpeng, his daughter Tang Xia, and his nephew Tang Dong. They're from the Imperial Capital, the Tang Family. "
Su Lingyun's body swayed. If she hadn't quickly held the wall, she would have fallen to the ground. Her expression became extremely gloomy, and her eyes flickered with fear.
Tan Xiu held her arm and let her sit on the edge of the bed. Then, he continued, "Mom, I think it's necessary for you to tell me something. Of course, there are still many things I haven't told you, such as … news about him! "
He …
News about him?
Su Lingyun's pupils violently contracted as disbelief burst out from her eyes.
He …
He's still alive?
Tan Xiu didn't speak again. He knew that his mother needed time to digest what he said.
After a long while.
Su Lingyun looked a bit perturbed and expectant as she asked in a low voice, "He … where is he?"
"The Imperial Capital," Tan Xiu said lightly.
Su Lingyun's face was filled with a deep sense of loss and tears were rolling in her eyes. She bit her lower lip and murmured, "He's not dead … Why didn't he come to us? He clearly knew that I was pregnant with … "
Tan Xiu interrupted her and said, "He's been in a coma for 20 years. He's in a vegetative state."
"What?"
Su Lingyun was shocked by Tan Xiu's words. She looked at Tan Xiu with a dull expression as if she couldn't believe what she had heard.
20 years?
In a vegetative state?
He …
In an instant!
Tears burst out from Su Lingyun's eyes. A deep sense of regret arose in her heart. She regretted that she didn't go to the Imperial Capital that year. She knew that his home was there, yet she didn't go to find him.
Tan Xiu gently hugged Su Lingyun and patted her back, saying, "Mom, I've always known that you're a strong woman since I was a child. You may look soft on the surface, but you have a strong heart. Don't cry. Tell me what happened that year. "
After crying for a while, Su Lingyun raised her tearful face and said bitterly, "That year, his comrade-in-arms called him out and told me that he's going out for a drink. I didn't take it seriously at that time and waited. One day, two days, three days … "
"He has disappeared, and there is no news of him. I called the police, but there was no result. I believed that he wouldn't abandon us, mother and son, so I thought he was dead. He died in a place I would never be able to find. Later on, I was taken back to my hometown by Su Shangwen and gave birth to you. After giving birth to you, I didn't give up and wanted to go to the Tang Family in the Imperial Capital to find him. But I didn't dare to go. I was afraid … "
"Are you afraid that I'll be taken away by the Tang Family?" Tan Xiu secretly sighed inside.
Su Lingyun nodded without a word and cried, "The Tang Family is a big family in the Imperial Capital, with great power and influence. If they knew that I have Tang Yunde's son and that you have the Tang Family's bloodline, I'm afraid they would take you away. I've lost my husband, so I can't lose my son. "
"Have you ever thought about going to the Imperial Capital all these years?" asked Tan Xiu.
"Xiu, do you still remember when you were in junior high school?" Su Lingyun said bitterly. "Every year, I told you to go to my relatives' house in the neighboring city. In fact, I didn't go to my relatives' house in the neighboring city! I just relied on the little money I usually saved to go to the Imperial Capital to inquire about your father's news. I went there every year for more than a decade. I even went to the Tang Family's old residence in the Imperial Capital hundreds of times. I hid far away and secretly observed them. But I've never heard anyone mention your father, and I've never seen him even once. "
Tan Xiu suddenly understood and said with all seriousness, "Mom, I think you're doing the right thing. Growing up with you, I can feel happiness and maternal love. But … "
"But what?" Su Lingyun finally stopped crying and asked.
"But what are you going to do?" asked Tan Xiu.
"I'm going to find your father!" Su Lingyun said without hesitation. "I believe him. He must have his own difficulties as long as he's not dead. He has been in a coma for 20 years and has been lying on a cold bed without me around to take care of him. So, I'll accompany and take care of him for the rest of my life as long as he's alive. "
