Chapter 1219: Chapter 596: Chu Munan’s Daughter

In the end, it’s because he’s getting old. This time, he had one foot in the grave and almost didn’t make it back. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Now, he doesn’t wish for much, just to see his children and grandchildren gathered around him, spending his remaining days well, without leaving any regrets.

Song Xi’s gaze fell on Lu Tianming. Getting his approval, she was very happy and content in her heart, nodding her head, "Okay, how about Jingchen and I return to the old house tomorrow?"

When Lu Tianming heard Song Qiao’s words, he was a bit taken aback. He turned his head directly to her and asked, "Are you saying you and Jingchen can come back to the old house tomorrow?"

However, without waiting for Song Qiao to speak, Lu Jingchen already said, "We can’t go back to the old house every day. After all, it’s a bit far from the company. But the two kids can stay with you, and Qiaoqiao and I will come back to the old house occasionally."

The old house is about an hour or almost two hours away from the company. If there’s traffic in An City, it’s unimaginable. However, the old house is not too far from the kids’ school; it’s even closer than the villa.

Besides, Lu Jingchen would not miss any opportunity to be alone with his young wife.

Lu Tianming naturally had no objections. In fact, whether his son and daughter-in-law Song Qiao come back to the old house is not important. What’s important is that the two kids stay in the old house.

They say affection skips a generation, and this saying is not wrong at all.

When Xu Qian came out of the bathroom with the two kids, Lu Tianming asked them if they wanted to live in the old house, and both kids agreed in unison.

Their excited little faces further lifted Lu Tianming’s mood.

Having decided to let the two kids live in the old house, Lu Jingchen’s approach was to send the kids to the old house as soon as possible. That evening, Lu Tianming completed the discharge procedures and went back with Xu Qian and the two kids.

Song Qiao and Lu Jingchen stood at the hospital entrance, watching the car slowly disappear from sight before slightly shifting their gaze away.

Song Qiao tilted her head to look at Lu Jingchen, unable to help but sigh, "I thought the old man’s health wasn’t suitable for discharge. I didn’t expect him to be so lively and energetic now."

It’s the power of the two kids.

Lu Jingchen chuckled, holding her hand, and said, "Didn’t you say you wanted to visit Chu Munan? Let’s go... The doctor said today that his body is starting to slowly recover, he’s just not awake yet."

Song Qiao’s expression changed at his words, and her eyes suddenly reddened. She spoke with immense guilt, "It’s all my fault. If it weren’t for me, mom wouldn’t have been kidnapped because of me, and Chu Munan wouldn’t have been so seriously injured. If anything happened to Chu Munan, I wouldn’t know what to do..."

The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. Thinking about Chu Munan still lying in bed unconscious only made her more distressed.

After all, those years, Chu Munan had been exceedingly kind to her, treating her like a daughter. Sometimes, Song Qiao felt that her place with Munan was the same as Huanhuan’s.

Chu Munan wasn’t just kind to her but also very doting on Huanhuan. Huanhuan was also very attached to Chu Munan; the little guy just asked where his godfather was, and Song Qiao didn’t tell her.

Afraid the little girl might get scared.

Lu Jingchen directly embraced Song Qiao, patting her back gently, speaking softly, "It’s okay now. He’s no longer in life-threatening danger. He’ll be fine when he wakes up..."

Lu Jingchen did not disclose Tan Shuya’s involvement behind the scenes to the old man. After all, Grandpa’s health hasn’t fully recovered, and he was quite satisfied with Tan Shuya previously. If he were told the truth, Lu Jingchen was worried he might not be able to handle the blow.

Moreover, Grandpa is in good spirits now, and we shouldn’t let this matter ruin his mood.

...

When Lu Jingchen and Song Qiao reached the floor where Chu Munan’s ward was located, Song Qiao immediately saw a big one and a small one standing outside Chu Munan’s room. Her gaze inevitably fell on Lu Jingchen beside her, full of confusion.

Lu Jingchen didn’t explain directly but instead held her hand and walked towards the big one and the small one.

When Song Qiao and Lu Jingchen approached them, Song Qiao heard the child, milkily leaning against the glass, softly calling the man inside, "Daddy..."

The child’s voice was very crisp, with a bit of that childlike cuteness, making one’s heart involuntarily soften.

But Song Qiao’s eyes widened, looking at the child in front of her, and... Zuo Yuqing.

Zuo Yuqing’s gaze was also fixed on the comatose Chu Munan inside, the child in her arms placing their tiny hand on the glass, softly repeating the word ’Daddy’ over and over.

The little girl seemed a bit unfamiliar with this word, so as she called, her voice changed, turning ’Daddy’ into ’Dada’.

Zuo Yuqing couldn’t help but correct her daughter’s mispronunciation, "It’s Daddy, not Dada..."

The little girl seemed to somewhat understand, responding with an ’oh’ before milkily repeating again, "Daddy..."

Zuo Yuqing had already noticed Lu Jingchen and Song Qiao long ago. She turned back to look at Lu Jingchen, saying, "You’re here, huh? I thought you wouldn’t come today."

As she spoke, she looked at Song Qiao, pulling up the corners of her mouth into a smile, and warmly said, "Song Qiao, it’s been a while."

Since that time they saw each other in the restaurant, where she helped Lu Jingchen explain, the two really hadn’t seen each other for a long time.

Zuo Yuqing knew that Chu Munan’s current state was because he suffered severe injuries for Song Qiao, but she knew she had no right to blame Song Qiao.

Because although her daughter is Chu Munan’s biological daughter, Chu Munan didn’t know about her existence, and she had long since ended things with Chu Munan.

Song Qiao’s gaze turned to the little girl. The little girl seemed to sense Song Qiao’s attention, so she also looked up at Song Qiao, her eyes bright and lively, with very long and beautiful eyelashes.

The little girl looked about two to three years old, wearing a little dress with two tiny braided buns, incredibly cute.

As Song Qiao looked at the little girl in front of her, recalling the earlier call of ’Daddy,’ she instantly understood.
