Yan Zhiyu handed the notebook to Cheng Ruiyuan.

Cheng Ruiyuan opened it and read a few pages, muttering: "This is Dad's notebook..."

Hearing this, the other three came up.

The diary was started a long time ago, spanning several decades.

Cheng Ruiyuan's father's literacy level was not very high. He could just write, and his handwriting was a little crooked, but still understandable.

After flipping through the pages, I finally reached the relevant period.

[Today, we went to the capital to see a doctor. I don't care much about my illness, I just hope that my oral disease can be cured. If I die in the future, she can still marry someone else.

However, our diseases are not easy to cure, and we don’t have enough money to treat them.

Before leaving, we wanted to go for a walk around the imperial capital. After all, we rarely go out and usually stay in the village. As a result, we saw a woman by the river with a child in her arms...】

With those yellowed notes, the truth finally surfaced.

Unlike her biological mother, who just threw Yan Fangwei in a place with no one around and left her to fend for herself, Pang Xinwen was ruthless and worried about the consequences, so after quietly taking the real young master of the Huo family away, she threw him directly into the river!

Seeing the little baby sinking, she turned and left.

Logically speaking, under such circumstances, the young master would have no chance of surviving.

However, a miracle happened.

Cheng Ruiyuan's parents happened to come here to enjoy the scenery and accidentally saw this scene.

They hid, and after Pang Xinwen left, they rushed forward and pulled Master Zhen out of the river. Master Zhen's face was pale, but miraculously he was still breathing!

Because they had helped out at the village clinic, they knew a little about first aid.

Just like that, Cheng Ruiyuan came back to life.

The kind-hearted farmer couple took the child home and raised him as their own. Later, rumors spread in the village, and in order to prevent Cheng Ruiyuan from being viewed differently, they forged a parenting test.

At that time, we were one of the few people who had been to school and could read, so we did not doubt the authenticity of this appraisal.

So...

Cheng Ruiyuan is really the young master of the Huo family!

"But I still don't understand why they didn't tell the truth before they died?"

Yan Zhiyu's question was soon answered in the notes later.

Cheng Ruiyuan's adoptive father and mother thought that Pang Xinwen was Cheng Ruiyuan's biological mother. When they saw Cheng Ruiyuan being thrown into the river, they thought that he was not expected by his family and was almost killed by his biological mother.

We don't want you to know such a cruel truth and cast a shadow in your life.

Therefore, they decided to never tell Cheng Ruiyuan.

But this diary may have been forgotten and destroyed, not only left here, but also discovered by us.

Yan Fangwei let out a long sigh.

"So that's how it is..."

Yan Zhiyu was also quite sad.

It seems that Cheng Ruiyuan's adoptive parents really loved him and tried their best to raise him, even without having children of their own.

Cheng Ruiyuan was also well educated and was a grateful person. He earned money by beating people to cure his parents' illness, but in the end he still failed to keep them...

"I said, this is my biological child! Now, you don't have any doubts, right?"

Huo Xianglin's old face flushed with excitement. He wanted to walk towards his biological son, but was stopped by Yan Fangwei.

She glanced at Cheng Ruiyuan, who was unusually quiet, and shook her head.

"Mr. Huo, at this time, please let me stay for a while."

......

By the time the ordeal was over, it was already late at night.

Fortunately, the rural courtyard was large enough, so I rested at Cheng Ruiyuan's house for a night.

The next day, Yan Zhiyu and Yan Fangwei left first.

Cheng Ruiyuan wanted to calm down and decided to stay for a few more nights. Huo Xianglin finally found his biological son and was reluctant to leave. But he was afraid that Cheng Ruiyuan would be unhappy, so he did not stay here and found a place to live nearby.

After returning home, Yan Zhiyu and Yan Fangwei told the Yan family about this.

They were all very moved that the young master of the Huo family was not dead! And they had been looking for him for so long and couldn't find him. They didn't expect that he would appear in this way, and Yan Zhiyu and Yan Fangwei knew each other!

The world is big, yet small.

In addition, we are more assured.

Now that Huo Xianglin has found his biological son, it is even more impossible for him to let Huo Yanchen and Pang Xinwen go.

Yan Zhiyu was lying on the sofa in the room, holding Xiaoyong in her arms while showing off bag after bag of snacks.

She had been walking for a long time yesterday and hadn't eaten much. After returning home, although she had a big meal, she still felt hungry.

"Sister, do you think Cheng Ruiyuan will return to the Huo family?"

Yan Fangwei pondered for a while and shook her head.

"I have no idea......"

"But I feel sad for you. Your life trajectory has been changed without you knowing it. If it weren't for Pang Xinwen, you would be living a completely different life now."

"At the same time, I was lucky. Not only was I not killed by Pang Xinwen, but I also met a very good adoptive father and mother."

As she said this, she sighed deeply.

"Come to think of it, we actually have some sympathy for each other."

Looking at that beautiful and gentle face, Yan Zhiyu blinked and suddenly said, "Sister, why do I feel like... you seem to care about Cheng Ruiyuan so much?"
