396 His Confession 4 (2/2)

He didn't say that he actually didn't remember anything about his real father, after all, it would be an insult to the latter, besides, he could see that his real father was important for Wu Cheng and he wanted to respect his feelings as well, and no matter what, Rong Qiu was the one who brought him up so he would always be his father.

When Wu Cheng heard what Rong Heng had just said, tactfully understanding what he meant. He nodded in agreement and quickly said, ”You will always be my master forever as well...” Wu Cheng didn't try to become a bootlicker by saying that but he honestly felt happy with Rong Heng's choice. At least, he would still have a family. If he rejected Rong Qiu, he also knew that Rong Heng would be sad.

”Is that really okay?” Rong Qiu still felt uncomfortable, feeling like he was robbing someone else's life. However, there was a hopeful glint of happiness in his eyes which Rong Heng could see clearly. Rong Heng's mood became better because it meant that Rong Qiu still loved him, right?

Rong Heng laughed softly despite his complicated feelings. ”Father... It's really okay...” He hoped by continuing to become his father, he wouldn't leave or abandon him all alone once again. ”We will forever be father and son.”

”Thank you,” Rong Qiu answered in a hoarse voice, feeling so grateful and happy --- it meant that Rong Heng really appreciated him as his father, right?

Both of them smiled at each other and understood that Rong Qiu would continue using the real Uncle Qiu's identity once again --- maybe, even forever.

”So...” Rong Qiu trailed off while biting his lower lip out of nervousness once again. He felt that his current behavior was quite awkward but he just couldn't get back easily to his usual way of interaction with Rong Heng. Oh well... it would take time.

”About Yao Ling...” Rong Qiu wanted him to meet Yao Ling more formally ah~! However, he also couldn't force Rong Heng if the latter didn't want to do that right away. Even though he would be disappointed, he would relent and introduce them once again later.

Rong Heng understood what he wanted to say and felt better because Rong Qiu still cared about these feelings. ”Why don't we call my new sister in? I want to get to know her better,” Rong Heng said with a smile.

”Good! Good!” Rong Qiu said happily while clapping his hand excitedly. It seemed like Rong Heng had started to accept the idea of having a new sister, at least, this was a start.

”I will call her in,” Wu Cheng offered his help because he wanted to know about Yao Ling as well. Thus, Rong Qiu and Rong Heng waited patiently.

”Can I tell you a little bit about your sister?” Rong Qiu asked softly.

”Go ahead!” Rong Heng nodded in agreement. Knowing a little bit about her would be a good start as well.

Rong Qiu gave a brief explanation of Yao Ling's past --- including how the Ce Fei became her mother and how they lived a humble life in a village. Rong Heng could only gape in surprise because honestly, the relationship between Yao Ling and Xiao Fang was actually that complicated.

”Father, that's unbelievable!” Rong Heng exclaimed.

No wonder his father wanted to acknowledge her as soon as possible, it seemed like it was because he felt guilty for Yao Ling's situation and wanted to let her live a better life. If Yao Ling was good, he wouldn't prevent his father.
