Zhao Lihan said, "Wife, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing, I just want to cry when I think of this body..."
Zhao Lihan embraced Wang Xiaolan and said, "Thank you, daughter-in-law. I'm sorry for putting you through this. You've sacrificed so much for this family. If she were still alive, she would definitely thank you."
Wang Xiaolan buried her head deeply in Zhao Lihan's broad and warm embrace, as if she had found a safe haven. Her body trembled slightly as she tried to suppress her inner excitement.
At the same time, one of Zhao Lihan's big hands gently fell on her back, patting it lightly, as if soothing a frightened little bird.
"Don't be sad, wife...you should be happy."
His movements were gentle and rhythmic, and each pat carried an indescribable care and comfort. Wang Xiaolan felt the warmth of this large hand, and her mood gradually calmed down. She closed her eyes, savoring this rare tranquility and peace of mind.
Zhao Lihan felt relieved when he saw that Wang Xiaolan's emotions had finally stabilized.
He took a deep breath and said softly, "Wife, I think we should tell Liu Feng the good news now. What do you think?"
"Hubby, I'll listen to you."
"After all, he provided us with these samples! Besides, it might be better for him to convey this to Zeng Cheng than for us to speak directly. So, you have to give them the jade pendant and this test report."
Wang Xiaolan replied: "Don't worry, I always carry this token with me."
As he spoke, he took out the jade pendant which was warm from his body temperature from his underwear pocket and handed it to Zhao Lihan.
"Wife, don't worry, Liu Feng is our mutual friend, he will definitely get things done."
Wang Xiaolan frowned slightly and said to Zhao Lihan worriedly, "Husband, I don't know why, but I'm always afraid of Zeng Qiang. That meeting with him left a shadow in my heart." She sighed softly, a hint of uneasiness and worry in her eyes.
Zhao Lihan comforted her, "Wife, don't worry. Zeng Qiang may only look serious on the surface, but he's actually quite gentle. You're his biological daughter, and he loves you so much, how could he not like you?"
He patted Wang Xiaolan's shoulder gently, trying to reassure her.
However, Wang Xiaolan still couldn't let it go. She shook her head and said, "I can't really explain it. I always reject him in my heart. Maybe our horoscopes are incompatible!"
Zhao Lihan frowned slightly, his eyes were deep and solemn, as if he was lost in deep thought.
He sighed softly, then slowly said, "Wife, you may be worrying too much. Actually, during my time working on the task force, I had some contact with him and got to know him a little. I think he's a pretty good guy."
He paused, a trace of emotion and relief on his face, then continued, "According to Liu Feng, he went through countless hardships and made countless efforts to find you. He inquired everywhere, not missing a single clue; he kept trying, never discouraged even when he failed; he also silently endured all kinds of pressure, but he never gave up on searching for you."
Zhao Lihan's tone was filled with emotion, as if he was full of sympathy and respect for the father. He knew the pain and despair a father must feel after losing his child, but he admired the father's perseverance in pursuing clues.
He raised his head and looked at his wife, trying to convey his innermost thoughts: "So, daughter-in-law, we can't easily judge people based on appearance or first impression."
After saying these words, Zhao Lihan gently held his wife's hand, with a gentle light flashing in his eyes.
Zhao Lihan thought about it, and seemed to understand something. He comforted him, "His serious look might be an occupational disease. Maybe he thought you looked a lot like his wife, so he stared at you so closely."
"Husband, even if it's like that, he can't have that attitude! It makes me very uncomfortable."
"Wife, to be honest, you look a lot like Aunt Yu. Didn't you see that when you were doing the surgery?"
"Well, I really didn't think too much about it at the time. After all, there are so many people in this world who look alike, so I never thought about it that way. Later, I gradually realized that the way she looked at me was very unusual, but at that time I was busy with work and really didn't have time to think about it carefully, so I handed the task of ward rounds over to Dr. Xiao Ding."
"In fact, whenever I have some free time, Comrade Yu's frail appearance always makes me feel worried and concerned. Coincidentally, every time I go to visit her, she's already fast asleep."
"Wife, now it's good. You can call her mom without any hesitation."
"Yes! You should call her mom."
…
National Security Bureau.
Liu Feng looked particularly happy today, his face filled with joy. He walked into the office with big strides and his head held high.
As soon as he entered the door, he walked straight to Zeng Qiang who was sitting at the desk and approached him with a smile on his face.
"Good news, Chief. Good news."
Zeng Qiang, upon hearing him say this, immediately thought of Zeng Weiwei's case and said, "You look so happy, is there any progress in the investigation of Zeng Weiwei?"
Liu Feng raised the file bag in his hand above his head, shook his head, and said, "It's not this matter. It's something else."
Zeng Qiang asked in disbelief, "You mean...that thing?"
"You guessed right."
After saying that, he handed a test report in his hand to Zeng Qiang and whispered, "Congratulations, Section Chief. After going through untold hardships, you finally succeeded in finding your biological daughter! This is really an ecstatic good news!" His tone was full of sincere blessings.
Zeng Qiang eagerly unfolded the test report, as if time had stood still. The moment his eyes touched the report, his face blossomed with unconcealable joy, as dazzling as a spring flower.
At this moment, an endless stream of emotions surged through his heart, leaving him with a mixture of emotions. He clutched the test report tightly in his hand, his fingers trembling slightly, as if carrying the weight of the world.
Looking back on the past years, he had gone through untold hardships in order to find his daughter. He had always gone forward with hope, but what he got in return was always disappointment and loneliness.
He visited countless homes and witnessed all kinds of things in the world. In this long journey to find his relatives, he not only experienced the most beautiful and warm light of human nature, but also encountered the ugly and unbearable dark side.
However, no matter what difficulties and obstacles he encountered, no matter how much wind and rain he endured, he never thought of giving up the search for his daughter.
God has always been willing to help you! After countless years of searching and waiting, today, he finally realized his long-cherished wish—he found his long-cherished daughter! This is simply fate!
However, surprisingly, they had met each other several times before. What a small world!
