  Lin Ru woke up, only to see Tang Xi standing in front of her. Her eyes grew red and she turned her head to one side, refusing to see Tang Xi. She felt that she didn’t deserve to be Rourou’s mother. She had terrible parents, so she brought her daughter terrible grandparents. How could she face her daughter?

  Tang Xi was surprised to see that she refused to see her and wept secretly instead of bursting into tears of joy, becoming ecstatic or embracing her emotionally……

  Yang Jingxian stood beside Tang Xi and gave her a gentle push. Tang Xi looked at Yang Jingxian and the latter gave her a nod. Tang Xi stepped forward and took hold of Lin Ru’s hand, saying gently, “Mommy, it’s all over. Everything will be all right. Don’t be sad.”


  Lin Ru shook her head, but then she received a shock all of a sudden. She looked back at Tang Xi and asked with a trembling voice, “What did you just call me?”


  Tang Xi smiled and called out again, “Mommy. I already have a Mom, but no Mommy. Would you like to be my mommy?”


  In a moment, Lin Ru shed floods of tears, but instead of nodding, she shook her head. “I don’t deserve to be your mother. Rourou, I’m not worthy of being your mother. I failed you and let you suffer so much. Now you’re being harassed by those people because of me……”


  Tang Xi knew that Lin Ru was talking about Tao Yan. Tang Xi held Lin Ru’s hand and shook her head. “You are my mother. This is a fact. The past is the past. Let’s move on.”


  Lin Ru could not stop her tears. She couldn’t move any part of her body below her head and could only shake or nod her head. She shook her head and said, “No, we can’t. As long as I’m their daughter, we can’t move on. You’ll be harassed by them for the rest of your life. I’m sorry I’m useless and let you be wronged.”


  Tang Xi sat down at Lin Ru’s bedside, reached out her hand to wipe the tears off Lin Ru’s face and whispered, “It’ll be over. Mommy, it’s not your fault, but theirs. They did terrible things to you. Everything will be fine.”


  Yang Jingxian nodded and echoed, “Yes. Rourou agrees to acknowledge you as her mother now. You should be happy. Don’t cry.”


  It was Xiao Hongyi’s first time seeing Lin Ru cry so sorrowfully in more than twenty years. He stood on the side and didn’t know what to say; the only thing he could do was to stand still. Hearing Yang Jingxian’s words, he hurriedly said, “Yes, we won’t have any connections with them anymore.” With that, he hurriedly showed Lin Ru the paternity test report. “This is a paternity test report. Yesterday, Rourou questioned them as to whether you really are their child. They let slip and we immediately carried out a paternity test. Ah Ru, you aren’t their child. That’s why they treat you like this. It’s not that you aren’t good enough but that you aren’t their child, which is why they abused you so cruelly.”


  Lin Ru froze and then looked up incredulously at Xiao Hongyi, who gave her a nod. She then turned to Tang Xi, who also nodded and said, “Yes, they aren’t your parents. I have people looking for evidence now. After the evidence is found, we can take them to court and disown them, then we’ll have nothing to do with those parasites.”


  Lin Ru bit her lips hard. How could this be? She was not her parents’ biological daughter? She had been the Lin Family’s daughter for nearly 50 years, but now she was told that she was not her parents’ daughter? Her eyes turned red. How could this be?!

  Seeing Lin Ru almost go mad, Tang Xi squatted down and tried to comfort her. “Don’t cry, you should be happy. You’re not the child of those two parasites and your daughter doesn’t need to be acknowledged by them, so you should be happy.”


  “If I’m not their daughter, then why did they treat Xiao Jinning so well? Even though I’m not their daughter, I’ve been serving them with filial piety for so many years!” Lin Ru cried out bitterly.

  Tang Xi pursed her lips as she fell into thought for a while before answering solemnly, “Xiao Jinning might be their real granddaughter. That’s why they treat her so well.”


  Both Xiao Hongyi and Lin Ru looked at Tang Xi in astonishment. Xiao Hongyi stared at Tang Xi in shock and Lin Ru widened her eyes. “What did you say?”


  Tang Xi sighed, looked at Xiao Hongyi and Lin Ru and said, “I’ll take care of this matter. Regardless of what happened before, we should be happy instead of being sad because we’re together now and have found out the truth, right?”


  Lin Ru looked deeply at Tang Xi for quite a while before she asked, “So Xiao Jinning is Lin Jiao’s daughter, right? In order to give Lin Jiao’s daughter a good life, they stole you and put their daughter beside me, right?”


  Tang Xi pursed her lips and fell silent for quite a while before she nodded. “Yes.”


  Lin Ru let out a self-deprecating laugh. “Haha, it turns out to be like this. They just wanted to use me! They’ve been using me for decades. How could they persecute me like this?! Why do they do this to me?!”


  Lin Ru remembered that when she was a child, she could only eat the food left over by Tao Yan and Lin Ruozhi. Sometimes she had nothing to eat and had to go hungry. She could only wear the clothes that Tao Yan was going to throw away. Wearing those oversized clothes, she had looked like a joke.

  Then Lin Jiao grew up. She could finally wear Lin Jiao’s old clothes, but she was taller than Lin Jiao, so her clothes were always too small. After she went to school…… she had to collect garbage or help old grannies in the market to sell vegetables to raise her tuition fees.

  When she was little, she had to wear oversized clothes. When she became a little older, she had to wear undersized ones. And after she went to school, she had to do her homework and cook their dinner before she could go out to work……

  She had earned everything by herself. She had longed to tell her parents that the Lin Ru whom they had disliked since her childhood had succeeded. However, they never praised her, but doted on Lin Jiao who was getting more and more disobedient and rebellious……

  They changed their minds about her after she went to university in City A and stopped treating her like before. However, they began to squeeze money out of her……

  “Maybe Tao Yan hates your family,” Tang Xi said pityingly as she looked at Lin Ru. “I can’t think of the reason for her to raise you by her side and torment you day by day except that she hates your real parents very much.”


  “I’m going to ask her why!” Lin Ru tried to get up, only to be pressed down by Tang Xi. Tang Xi said seriously, “I said, I’ll take care of this matter. What you should be doing now is to recover as soon as possible. Cheer up, don’t get down!”
