Chapter 133: Dad

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Yu Hong looked at Yu Yao with a complicated expression. Back then, when Chen Lin had just given birth to Yu Yao, their family had lived very happily because they finally had a long-awaited cute little princess.

At that time, after Yu Yao disappeared, Chen Lin was immersed in excessive self-blame. The originally warm and harmonious family had undergone a huge change overnight. The atmosphere at home gradually became silent and oppressive. Chen Lin’s mental state began deteriorating after the increasing pain.

Even when Yu Hong adopted the little girl, Yu Wan, who was about the same age as his biological daughter, he could not untie the knot in Chen Lin’s heart. Instead, it made Chen Lin miss her biological daughter, Yu Yao, even more. Helpless, Yu Hong gradually handed the family business to his eldest son and took his wife to settle down in Switzerland to recuperate.

Therefore, when he first found Yu Yao, like his three sons, Yu Hong did not have much feelings for his biological daughter. In fact, compared to his three sons, Yu Hong blamed Yu Yao even more—if it was not for her, his wife would not have fallen ill.

However, as Yu Yao spent more and more time with the Yu family, as she stubbornly exposed the dark side of the mental hospital and her confrontation with that mysterious criminal organization gradually escalated… Yu Hong had to admit that this daughter who had grown up in the countryside was not as he had concluded in his heart the first time they met. He originally thought she was overly straightforward, without any hint of scheming, and was a normal girl without any talent worth appreciating.

Although he had been abroad the entire time, Yu Hong had learned about Yu Yao through various means. Now, in Yu Hong’s heart, this daughter of his was upright, kind, and brave. Although she was not as soft-hearted as her wife, deep in her bones, she was like the men of the Yu family, upright and daring.

Although the growth of this daughter had completely overturned the expectations that Yu Hong had for her when she was just born. She had not become a sweet little princess, but Yu Hong still slowly liked this girl who fit into the Yu family and admired her.

Yu Hong walked forward and stood beside his wife. Under Chen Lin’s expectant and urging gaze, he reached out and opened his arms. He said to Yu Yao, “Yaoyao, I’m sorry. Daddy didn’t protect you well. I’m sorry. In the beginning, I…”

Yu Yao shook her head and took the initiative to hug Yu Hong, interrupting him. “Dad, you don’t have to apologize. Our family is back together again, and that’s already very good.”

Yu Hong hugged Yu Yao in his arms. His heart, which had gone through many vicissitudes, suddenly beat faster at this moment. The damaged part in his heart seemed to have been replenished.

Chen Lin looked at the scene of the father-daughter pair hugging and leaned on her eldest son’s shoulder with a smile. She whispered, “Your father misses Yaoyao just like me.”

Yu Heng and Yu Lang understood Yu Hong’s feelings for Yu Yao better, but they wouldn’t retort their mother now. Yu Lang put his arm around their mother’s shoulder and consoled her, saying, “Mom, since you’re back, don’t leave, okay? Our family will be together forever.”

The family was enjoying their reunion. Qiao Lian watched quietly from the side and did not feel awkward at all. He wanted to wait for the Yu family to finish reminiscing and have a good chat with Yu Yao, but the Yu family clearly did not want to give him a chance to get close to her.

As the head of the family, Yu Hong stepped out and said to Qiao Lian, “Mr. Qiao, you’ve also been on the plane for such a long time. You must be exhausted like us. Our family will take our leave today. We’ll prepare a generous gift another day and then come back to express our gratitude.”

Qiao Lian couldn’t exactly say that he wasn’t tired and wanted to spend some more time with Yu Hong’s daughter. Even if he wasn’t tired, he had to take into account Yu Hong and Chen Lin’s health…

He shook hands with Yu Hong and said politely, “Uncle Yu, you’re welcome. I’ll wait for you and your family to come.”

Then he looked at Yu Yao and found that she was also looking at him, so he wasn’t so disappointed. Forget it. The Yu family was reunited, so he shouldn’t disturb her..
