Chapter 431 (1/2)

Zhou Heng did not manage to hear what Yue Wanqing said clearly. He asked, “What did you say?”

“Oh, nothing.” Yue Wanqing shook her head and said, “I was thinking, Old Master Zhou and Old Madam Zhou have been searching for Dou Dou for 40 years now. I believe that if Dou Dou knows about it, she would definitely be very very happy, because she did not get dumped by her family. Although she was an orphan, she had parents who loved her so much.”

Zhou Heng noticed that Yue Wanqing looked a little depressed as she spoke. She also seemed to be happy at the same time. These two emotions were combined on her face, and it made her refined features look even more warm, and he looked on in a blur.

A particular spot in his heart was moved, and he felt very soft.

Zhou Heng still wanted to speak, but at this moment: Knock knock. The sound of someone knocking on the door rang out in the air, and Zhou Dayuan walked in.

“Grandpa, the results of the DNA test are in.” Zhou Dayuan handed the report over to Grandpa.

“Dad.” What a coincidence. A few people came into the room. Zhou Dao, Kong Lan and Tong Li all arrived behind him.

Tong Li came forward quickly. She stretched her hand out to hold Zhou Heng’s elbow as she said, “Dad, are the results from the DNA test in already? Am I actually your biological daughter or not?”

Zhou Heng looked at the last page of the report carefully. There was surprise and joy on his smiling elderly face, “Dou Dou, you are really Dad’s daughter.”

“Really?” Tong Li listened on and jumped up immediately to give Zhou Heng a large hug. “Dad, this is great, I have finally found my biological father! Do you know how many hards.h.i.+ps I went through these past few years. My husband despised that I came from a poor background. He would hit me whenever he drank, and even my mother-in-law saw that I didn’t have any parents and would make life difficult for me because she looked down on me. Dad, will you protect me in the future?”

Zhou Heng patted Tong Li’s back as he said, “I will, of course I will. With me around, no one will dare to bully you.”

At this moment, Kong Lan came forward and said, “Dad, congrats for finding Older Sister Dou Dou. I have seen both you and mum search for Dou Dou all over the world. We were all worried for you. This is great news! We have found Older Sister Dou Dou. Dad, our Zhou family should throw a lavish party and officially acknowledge Older Sister Dou Dou’s ident.i.ty.”

“This….” Zhou Heng hesitated and said, “Xiao Hui is still in the hospital, we should still wait for Xiao Hui to wake up before holding any party…”

“Dad!” Zhou Dao said with an awkward smile on his face. “The biggest dream that Mum had in her entire life was to look for Older Sister Dou Dou. Now that we have found Older Sister Dou Dou, Mum would definitely hope that you would officially reveal Older Sister Dou Dou’s ident.i.ty. Who knows, maybe when we officially reveal Older Sister Dou Dou’s ident.i.ty, Mum might wake up.”

Zhou Heng listened and nodded his head. He looked at Tong Li and felt extremely bad for all the years of hards.h.i.+ps that she had gone through. “Okay, then we will let the butler organize the party.”

At this moment, Zhou Dao, Kong Lan, and Tong Li all broke out into a smile.

Zhou Dayuan placed both of his hands in his pockets. He turned around to look at Yue Wanqing who was seated beside the bed, and he nodded his head.

Yue Wanqing turned to look at Grandma who was lying on the bed. She perched by the side of grandma’s ear as she softly said, “Grandma, did you know about it already? If I am, then I would need you to wake up quickly. We have been separated for 40 years already. The person that you have been looking for 40 years has always been by your side, could you actually not want to open your eyes to have a good look? Mum…”

The Zhou family party was held in a large and luxurious location in T City. The party consisted of all of the elites and media journalists. The occasion was grand and elaborate.

Lu Dinghua and Song Yajing both attended the party, and they were accompanied with Little Qinwen who was already ten months old.

They came to Zhou Heng’s side, and they raised their gla.s.s of red wine towards him. “Old Master Zhou, congrats for finding your daughter.”

Zhou Heng looked good. He was in a good mood. He patted Lu Dinghua’s shoulders, smiled, and said, “Thank you, I have reaped what I sowed…” As he spoke, Zhou Heng looked at Lu Qinwen. His clouded and elderly eyes were bright and sparkling as he bent his waist down to play with Little Qinwen. “This must be Little Young Master Lu. He is really getting more handsome as he gets older. His genes are so strong. He will definitely be much more handsome than Shaoming when he is older.”

Little Qinwen held a large grape in his hands. He wore a white checkered s.h.i.+rt with a bow tie around his neck. He had a bowl haircut. His small face was pink and smooth. He knew about manners, even though he was only ten months old. He saw Zhou Heng, bent his waist down like a gentleman, and said in a childish voice, “Great Grandpa, how are you.”

“I am good, good. How are you?” Zhou Heng had a benevolent look on his face, while he complimented him. “Little Young Master Lu has been taught so well. We all love him more the more we see him.”

At this moment: “Dad…” Tong Li ran out. She purposely dolled herself up today. She was dressed to the nines, and her normal old fas.h.i.+oned behaviour was held back. She pursed her lips together as she broke out into a smile.

She looked at Little Qinwen and was shocked as she said, “Whose child is this? He looks so beautiful.”

Zhou Heng held Tong Li’s hand as he looked at Lu Dinghua. “This is Dinghua’s grandson, Little Qinwen. Come, Dou Dou, let me introduce you. This is Lu Dinghua. You can be considered to be childhood friends with Dinghua. I don’t know if you remember it or not, but at that time, Dou Dou, you liked to chase after Dinghua as you played around calling him Older Brother….”

Zhou Heng recounted the happy times in his memory as he smiled. He really missed those times very much.

Tong Li looked at Lu Dinghua, and her eyes lit up. If she were not wary of Song Yajing being around, she probably would throw herself onto him. “Older Brother Dinghua….” She pinched her voice as she called him.

Lu Dinghua had three black lines running across his forehead. He felt nauseous inside his heart, but he did not express it on his face. He looked at Tong Li plainly and said, “Dou Dou, how are you.”

Tong Li was very excited. She wanted to speak, but at this moment, Lu Dinghua stretched his hand around Song Yajing’s shoulders as he gently said, “Little Qinwen likes to eat cherries right? We will bring him over.”

“Okay.” Song Yajing was elegant and poised. It was what the years of being the matriarch of the Lu family taught her. She held Little Qinwen’s hand, and the trio left.

…

After they went far away, Song Yajing turned sideways to look at Lu Dinghua, she curled the corners of her lips up as she teasingly said, “Why, did you have a childhood love with the Young Miss of the Zhou family back then. How come I didn’t know anything about it?”

Lu Dinghua had a warm smile on his face. While he tried to recount his memories for a moment, “The Lu and Zhou families have been friends for generations. It is true that I grew up together with Dou Dou, but at that time, she was very young. I don’t have too many memories of her, but in my memory, Dou Dou was active and attractive, and did not look like that at all. She has changed way too drastically.”
