"Your legs..."
Although she was overjoyed to see her brother still alive, Feng Cailan's heart was deeply broken by Feng Lingyan's inability to walk. Her brother had once been the "Bei Lingyan," the "Legend of Lai and Feng," a man of such brilliance, yet now he was confined to this small wheelchair...
"Back then, my brother fell from the Cliff of Oblivion. Although he luckily survived, his legs were crippled for sixteen years. But don't worry, Alan. Thanks to Qingcheng's third husband, there's still hope for his legs to recover."
Feng Lingyan's smile was as refreshing as the spring breeze, but it made Feng Cailan feel extremely sad.
"The rustling wind shakes the blue waves, and the shadows of the trees dance gracefully. The traveler in the boat in the boundless and vast expanse of space, sighs and regrets about his fleeting life."
"Alan, you don't have to be sad for me. I'm already very relieved to see you again. Are mother and father... okay?"
"Okay, everything is fine. It would be even better if I could see you..." Feng Cailan had no time to care about the tears welling up in her eyes. She squatted in front of Feng Lingyan's wheelchair, looking at him with great heartache.
No wonder the monk just asked her what she would do if her brother were still alive. This was what he meant.
"So you are Qingcheng's biological father. No wonder you look so similar. It's really hard for you..." Ye Maochun watched Feng Lingyan and Feng Cailan recognize each other, and kept wiping tears with his sleeves.
Hua Rongsheng, who sat next to Ye Maochun, was also filled with emotion. They had never imagined that the child they had taken in by chance would be the legitimate daughter of the current emperor and his wife, who had been living among the common people.
"Due to some reasons, I was unable to express my gratitude to the two benefactors before, and Lingyan feels guilty. I will be grateful for your great kindness for the rest of my life." Feng Lingyan was unable to salute Hua Rongsheng and Ye Maochun, so she could only nod to them while sitting in a wheelchair.
"Master Feng, please don't say that. Initially, her mother and I believed Qingcheng was abandoned by her parents, so we kept her background a secret. Although we've raised her for over a decade, hasn't she also been enjoying the company of our children for over a decade?"
"On the contrary, Young Master Feng, it's not easy for you. Now that we can see you and Qingcheng recognize each other, the child's mother and I are deeply comforted. You don't have to feel guilty." Ye Maochun said while wiping his tears.
"Qingcheng and Lingyan are truly blessed to have met you two. As the saying goes, the grace of raising a child is greater than the grace of giving birth to one. Don't worry, no matter what Qingcheng's future status becomes, you will always be her mother and father. Qingcheng is not an ungrateful person and will definitely be filial to you..."
…
Hearing the touching words from her brother and Ye Maochun, Feng Cailan felt a wave of conflict in her heart. Could she really bear to send her brother back to the palace?
