  "Sorry, child, I've made you suffer." She stroked Tian Tian's soft hair.

  Tian Tian's eyes suddenly became moist, the warm hands of her mother she saw in her dreams were just like this, only, she could never see her mother's gentle face. This time, she finally did, and it was still so beautiful. "Come with us, okay?"

  Shaking her head slightly, a smile still lingering at the corner of her mouth, "I'd like to, but I shouldn't, kid."

  Lian Tian Jun Feng's face changed color.

  "Why?"

  "I've gotten used to the easy and carefree days here, with nothing much to worry about. I'm also tired of the scheming and plotting in business and emotional relationships, so I won't be going back again. If you're willing, you can stay by mom's side."

  "You really don't want to come with us?" Tian Junfeng asked again.

  Qing Ling smiled and nodded, "Not going." When she raised her eyes again, her gaze met that stunningly handsome face, of course, the first thing to catch her attention was naturally the boy's pair of sparkling big eyes. She asked Tian Junfeng, "This child..."

  "He is Lü Yanlan's son, Xu Yitian." Tian Junfeng explained.

  "Isn't he your son?"

  Tian Junfeng shook his head, "I have only one child."

  She smiled softly and asked Xi Yue Tian, "Lu Yanlan, was she good to you?"

  Xu Yitian looked at the gentle and affectionate appearance, couldn't help but want to get close, seeing her stroking Tian Tian's head, also particularly wanted her to touch herself, feeling the sweetness of motherly love. He shook his head, "Not good." But didn't say anything more on this topic, "Auntie?"

  "Huh?"

  "Can you stroke my head? I also want to feel a mother's touch."

  She gently nodded and lightly stroked the fluffy head that Xu Yitian had stretched out, "Silly child, you've suffered too."

  "How warm." If it were like this, a family together forever, how great.

  At noon, the four of them had lunch together in the water house.

  Not a sumptuous feast, but every dish is carefully crafted Chinese cuisine, refreshing and palatable.

  Qing Ling didn't talk much with Tian Junfeng, only occasionally asking him a couple of questions about Tian Tian. Nothing else was mentioned.

  It's false to say that there are no hard feelings about the grudges from many years ago. Having driven her out of Paris and left behind his own biological daughter, how long will it take for him to let go?

  Nature, Tian Junfeng knew this, so he simply answered the light questions, but the smile in his eyes never stopped. This man naturally had his difficulties, after years of endurance, he finally brought his daughter to his side, and then dared to ask for forgiveness from the woman he deeply loved. But he was still so gentle, elegant, and dignified, lovingly caring for them, holding up a big umbrella for them.

  "Kid, eat more, you're so thin." As she spoke, Liang Wei gently placed a piece of meat on Tian Tian's plate and smiled softly. Then, she immediately gave Xu Yi Tian another piece, "You too, don't you two usually eat anything?"

  Tian Tian and Xu Yi Tian exchanged a glance, pursed their lips and smiled. Happiness seemed to have filled the entire world with little flowers!

  Having experienced personnel matters, how could she not understand the implication of this gaze? She looked at Tian Junfeng, "Those two..."

  Tian Junfeng nodded, "The two of them are discussing friendship."

  "Tian Tian is older than this kid, I remember, when Tian Tian was around, this kid wasn't even born yet!"

  Tian Tian is three years older than him.

  "Then you..." furrowed his brow slightly.

  "They like it, and as a father, it's not good to interfere, what do you think?"

  Qing Ling nodded slightly, but this child's mother was still Lü Yanlan after all. She didn't say much more, "As long as you're together, be good to each other and cherish one another, got it?"

  Having obtained her mother's consent, Tian Tian's small face was red and puffy, nodding repeatedly. Xu Yi Tian doted on her with a shallow smile at her childish appearance.

  It's night.

  Tian Tian and Xu Yi Tian went back to their rooms to sleep, but Tian Jun Feng did not fall asleep. After thinking for a while, he resolutely walked out of the room door.

  Tian Junfeng stood outside the door of the pavilion, stretched out his hand, but then withdrew it, hesitating whether to open this door. Just as he was hesitant, a soft and gentle female voice sounded at this moment, "Come in." The tone carried a hint of faint sighing.

  He felt a bit embarrassed when he was seen through by others, and Tian Junfeng walked in with a stiff upper lip.

  When he pushed open the door, the gentle woman with a hint of coldness was weaving a scarf under the bright light, and the fiery ball of yarn occasionally rolled.

  "Lightning Cage," Tian Junfeng called out.

  "Sit down," the voice had no big ups and downs, lightly pointing to the sofa, "Do you want something to drink?"

  "That year......" Tian Junfeng somewhat stiffly brought up this long-sealed topic, "I'm the one who should be saying sorry, blaming myself for not stopping you."

  "That's because you don't know my family background," she said softly, lowering her head, the two bamboo knitting needles tangled and wrestling between her fingers and the yarn.

  "Do you still resent me?"

  "I don't blame anyone up until now."

  "Is it forgiven me?"

  She lifted her head slightly, looked at Tian Junfeng and said, "Not blaming doesn't mean forgiving, I just want to make myself feel more relaxed, no longer letting those past trivial matters bother me."

  Tian Junfeng was silent, where else would he dare to ask for her forgiveness? In those years, the weak and pregnant her lived under Lv Yanlan's cold and stern gaze. The warmth of family and the care of a husband that a pregnant woman should have, she didn't have any of it. This little woman just gritted her teeth and gave birth to the child. Coincidentally, he saw all the hardships she endured with his own eyes, but was powerless to do anything about it.

  She also asked him to follow her and said she would take care of him. But how could he abandon the interests of his family and elope with her? He couldn't give up Lü Yanlan and the wealth behind her.

  So, he could only harden his heart and drive her, a weak woman, out of Paris. But who knew that he also had many helplessnesses. God avenged him severely later on, and he never felt happy in all these years.

  But in hindsight, she turned out to be the daughter of a wealthy family, and heaven had played an enormous joke on him.

  Now, after waiting for many years, he has finally made the family business flourish and no longer needs the support of the Lv Yanlan financial group. He can now proudly find his daughter back, his wife, and live a happy life together.

  "Come along," he said, "follow us."

  She smiled lightly and shook her head, "No. But if your daughter is willing, she can stay with me. I like her very much."

  "She won't stay," Tian Junfeng said resolutely, "She will inherit the Tian family."

  Qing's face changed, somewhat annoyed, "You actually let her, a girl..."

  "That's where she belongs, the hardships she suffered need to be taken back from those people. What I gave her was just a tool for revenge. She herself is not someone who should live an ordinary life. I will give her a few more years to learn about the company's business and various social interactions. She will do better than me."

  "And you?" Obviously, Qing Leng was somewhat surprised by his bold idea.

  "I should take a break, since you don't want to leave, I'll stay with you." He chuckled softly, his tone unusually gentle, "Wait for me a few more years, and also wait for Tian Tian a few more years. Don't refuse me again, okay?"

  Qīng lóng dèng dà le yǎn jing, bù kě zhì xìn de wàng zhe tián jun fēng, yǎn jiǎo yǒu xiē wēi shī, "nǐ……"

  Translation:

  Her eyes widened in shock as she stared at Tian Junfeng, her eyes slightly moist, "You..."

  "It's been a long time since I've held you," Without waiting for her refusal, he wrapped his arms around her petite body and pulled her into his embrace. His shoulders were broad enough to envelop her completely. All he could hear was his own whisper, "So warm, so fragrant."

  The dim light is intoxicating, this night is drunk with people.

  Qing Ling and three others had a happy time playing here for several days. Before leaving, Qing Ling gave the scarf she had woven to Tian Tian and said, "Paris still has winter, at least it can keep out the cold."

  Tian Tian gave Qing Lin a big hug, she buried her little head in Qing Lin's neck, smelling the scent of her mother, "Thank you."

  Xu Yitian's eyes were also shining brightly, looking at the gentle gaze was extremely warm.

  "Be good to my daughter, got it?" Qing also gave a big hug to the tall Xi Yitian and patted his back.

  "I will, Auntie. Soon, I'll be calling you 'Mom'!" Xǔ Yìtiān said with a mischievous grin at the blushing Tián Tián.

  "Silly child." She said with a soft chuckle.

  Qian turned to Tian Junfeng and said "Be careful on your way."

  Tian Junfeng nodded, "Wait for me."

  Paris.

  Xu Yitian returned home to find Lü Yanlan sitting on the couch, staring blankly into space. "Where have you been?!" Lü Yanlan exclaimed, jumping up from the couch and glaring at him with wide eyes.

  "Mind your own business." Xǔ Yìtiān gave her a cold glance.

  "Do you know how much manpower and resources I've mobilized to find you? Do you know... for so many days, I haven't closed my eyes searching for you?"

  "It's imaginable, but you've looked in the wrong place."

  "Where did you go?"

  "I'm not going to tell you."

  "Are you with Tian Tian that little cheap thing again?"

  "Why should I tell you? What right do you have to know?" Xǔ Yìtiān sneered.

  "You will regret this, Tian Cheng."

  "Let's just wait and see."

  "I'll make you beg for me, beg for me, and never see that cheap person again." Lü Yanlan let out a cold snort and turned back to her bedroom.

  Xu Yi Tian was left alone on the spot, clenching his fists tightly.

  School.

  Tian Tian was blocked by several foreign girls in the toilet, she looked at the girls who were much taller than herself and didn't know what they wanted to do. "Excuse me, is there something?" she asked.

  She only felt that the girls' faces were unfriendly, they quickly said some French with dialects, but she could hear the general meaning was scolding her.

  She didn't want to bother with those girls either and was about to walk away.

  A tall and slender girl grabbed her collar, and with a "ripping" sound, her thin blouse tore a big hole.

  Tian Tian glared at her, "What are you going to do?"

  "What's wrong? Beat you!"

  Then, a group of girls surrounded her, encircling the little girl in the middle.

  "Don't blame us, blame yourself for offending people you shouldn't have."

  The girl didn't say much nonsense and her fist was already heading towards her body.

  The clothes were torn apart, the hair was pulled to the point of pain, and the soles of shoes made harsh contact with tender white skin, causing a dull ache. On her face, it felt like she had been punched with great force - hopefully not disfiguring her, or else Xu Yitian wouldn't like her anymore. And then there were slaps, one after another, landing on her cheeks, the crisp sounds echoing in the bathroom. Her legs were also kicked several times. The dull pain spreading from various parts of her body through her nerves was almost numbing.

  Someone pinned her down, leaving her entire body exposed to their violent blows. She was getting weaker and weaker, the ferocious faces of those girls becoming increasingly blurred...
