Dugu Cang immediately sensed something was wrong. His heart immediately began to hang in his throat, his throat became dry, and his voice became weak and hoarse.
"Aunt Su, what do you mean by this..."
Mother Su frowned, "You two are together again, I thought she remembered you."
She saw that Dugu Cang didn't seem to be lying, and there was no need for him to lie to her about this matter.
Then he asked doubtfully, "So Wan'er doesn't know that you are Jiang Cang? Then how did you two get together?"
"I thought she missed you, and that's why she rekindled her old relationship with you, despite being a married woman..."
After that, she sighed again, "Perhaps the fate between you two children is not over yet."
"Aunt Su, has she really forgotten me?" Dugu Cang said.
Mother Su nodded gently, "Wan'er did forget about you, but she didn't mean it."
"At that time, your family suffered a disaster and was sentenced to exile. Wan'er sold her jewelry for some silver and bought clothes and food to give to you before you left."
"However, her father didn't want her to have any further contact with your Jiang family, so he locked her in her yard, locked the door, and arranged for servants to guard her and not let her out."
"Wan'er couldn't let you go. She wanted to see you before you left, give you all her money and things, and make your journey less difficult. So she pushed all the furniture in the room to the wall, stepped on the furniture and climbed over the wall, wanting to escape from the Su Mansion and meet you at the city gate."
"Unfortunately, when she was climbing over the wall, she was discovered by the servants of the mansion, and they told her father."
"Her father was furious and beat her severely. I was also injured while protecting Wan'er. Afterwards, Wan'er fell seriously ill, and my parents took me back to my parents' home to recuperate. At that time, I had a head injury and was in a daze all day. My parents were extremely resentful of the Su family and stopped contacting us."
"Later, Wan'er married into the He family. My health recovered a lot, and my mind became much clearer. I thought of Wan'er and took her to live with me. Only then did I realize that she had actually forgotten about you."
"I don't know if it was because of the shock she felt that day, or because she was too sad, but she completely forgot about you and didn't even remember your name."
"She even forgot about the beating she got because of you that day..."
As she spoke, Su's mother glanced at Dugu Cang carefully and saw that he was completely stunned, his eyes were fixed and even his breathing had stopped.
"Cang'er, Cang'er, what's wrong with you..." She hurriedly slapped Dugu Cang's arm hard.
"Hu——" Dugu Cang suddenly took a deep breath and calmed down.
At this moment, he felt his heart was broken, full of pain and hatred.
I hated myself for wrongly accusing Wanmei, and I hated myself for wrongly accusing Wanmei without investigating the matter thoroughly.
I hate myself for not fully trusting my younger sister...
He grew up with her, knew her and fell in love with her. He knew what kind of person she was better than anyone else.
However, when he met her again, he actually doubted her and regarded her as a heartless and ungrateful person.
But he never imagined that she had been punished by her father for wanting to see him, and had been seriously injured and was on the verge of death...
Dugu Cang stared at Su Wanti in a daze, his lips trembling and tears flowing silently.
Seeing this, Su's mother didn't know what to say and quietly retreated.
Chun Xing happened to follow and was lingering at the gate of the main courtyard, taking Su's mother back.
————
Dugu Cang stayed by Su Wanti's bedside, saying nothing and refusing to eat or drink.
If you look at him from a few meters away, you won't even see him blink, like a statue without a soul.
He had never been like this before, and he didn't even dare to go in and disturb Tingfeng.
Dugu Cang stayed there patiently, from day to night, until the sky began to turn pale.
When it was dawn, Dugu Cang stood up.
His joints were stiff from sitting for so long, and he staggered forward a few steps before slowly walking out of the yard.
His face was expressionless, and his usually deep and sharp eyes had become lifeless, like the dusk on a rainy night, extremely gloomy.
Seeing the Regent come out, Tingfeng, who was guarding the door, immediately went to greet him, "Your Highness, you are finally out."
Dugu Cang didn't even look at him and just walked straight ahead.
"Your Highness, where are you going?" Tingfeng followed him.
Dugu Cang said calmly: "Go see Miaomiao."
The first time he saw Miaomiao, he knew that Miaomiao was his child.
He has never looked at Miaomiao seriously, nor has he spoken a word to her.
This is his and Wan'er's child, the blood of both of them.
Dugu Cang wanted to see him, hug him, and touch his little face and hands.
Tell him that he is his father.
Take him to meet his mother.
Maybe, after hearing Miaomiao's call, Wanmei will wake up...
————
Tingfeng wanted to continue following, but was rejected by Dugu Cang.
Dugu Cang walked alone in the morning light, his body and hair were covered with the morning mist, feeling cool.
He walked into the exquisite courtyard on the west side, which he had specially arranged for Su's mother and her group.
They are the people Su Wanti cherishes most, so they must live more comfortably.
Suyun and Chunxing had both woken up, washed up, and were busy in the yard.
Seeing Dugu Cang walk in, the two were shocked.
Three years ago, before Su Wanti faked her death and left Beijing, she frequently went in and out of the Regent's Palace, and she would occasionally bring Su Yun or Chun Xing with her.
Therefore, these two maids had met the Regent several times and recognized him.
"Greetings, Your Highness!" The two men reacted and bowed.
Dugu Cang waved his hand and said solemnly, "Which room does Miaomiao live in?"
Suyun and Chunxing looked at each other, neither of them daring to say anything.
Miaomiao doesn't look like the Regent. If the Regent doesn't recognize Miaomiao and kills him...
The two didn't dare to think further, nor did they dare to take risks. They lowered their heads and said nothing.
"Your Highness wants to see Miaomiao? Then come with me." At this time, Su's mother suddenly came out. She walked in front of Dugu Cang and said slowly.
"Madam?" Suyun and Chunxing looked uneasy.
Mother Su shook her head and said, "It's okay, go ahead and do your work."
She led the way and took Dugu Cang to Miaomiao's room.
Miaomiao is just over two years old. She is a tiny person with delicate skin and very cute.
These days, without his mother's company, he always wakes up in the middle of the night before refusing to go to bed.
Now, he is sleeping soundly, his little face is rosy and his mouth is pouting. I wonder if he is dreaming about his mother, but there is a sweet smile on the corner of his mouth.
The moment his eyes met the child, Dugu Cang's brows and eyes suddenly softened, "Miaomiao." He called softly.
According to the time, Miaomiao should be born in the Year of the Rabbit.
"Little rabbit, did your mother name you Miaomiao because she was afraid that you would have no grass to eat?" Dugu Cang chuckled.
Mother Su glanced at Dugu Cang and said softly, "You and Wan'er are indeed a perfect match. That's what she thinks."
"I told her to give Miaomiao a decent and generous name, but she refused, saying she didn't expect him to be the top scorer in high school or to become famous. She just wanted him to have enough food and clothing and live a safe and worry-free life."
Dugu Cang's lips curved slightly, "Wan'er is right."
