Seeing Big Brother and Second Brother coming out of the study, Han Chunxue noticed the look in Second Brotherās eyes and knew that Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law definitely had a lot to say.
But before she could speak, Sister-in-law Su Aihong thoughtfully found an excuse for everyone to disperse.
Xinyan directly shouted, "Iām going to take care of Granny Zhang."
She quickly slipped away.
This was exactly to Han Jingchenās liking, who directly pulled Gu Wanqing back to the room.
Only then did Gu Wanqing notice that the room was still the same as before, and suddenly her eyes blurred with tears: "Brother Chen, I didnāt expect this place hasnāt changed at all; I didnāt realize it before."
Han Jingchen embraced her: "Wanqing, everything here was arranged by us together. This place holds our memories. Over the years, it was those memories that kept me going.
Did you know that when I heard you had an accident, I wanted to give up everything and join you, but then I got news that the Gu Family had left.
I knew your parents couldnāt leave you behind, especially in such dangerous conditions. It was after many inquiries that I found out you indeed left with them, but our daughter did not leave with you.
I didnāt know what happened, but I knew you must have had your unspeakable reasons. Knowing you were safe, I was relieved, only hoping that someday we could reunite.
Since then, besides searching for news of our daughter, I focused on dealing with those who harmed the Gu Family, and also got some clues about our daughter from them.
But the search took eighteen years, Wanqing. I really did not expect our fatherās good intentions back then to cause such distress to our daughter.
Thankfully, I found our daughter.
Thankfully, our daughter met Aunt Zhang.
Thankfully, our daughter is strong and independent.
Thankfully, you have returned, and our family is finally reunited.
Gu Wanqing nestled in Han Jingchenās embrace: "Brother Chen, hold me tight. Iāve missed you and our daughter so much over the years.
To come back one day, no longer bullied, and no longer your weakness, Iāve been striving. When I knew I could return to the country, I was almost overjoyed.
If not for my parentsā encouragement, if not for the longing for you and our daughter as a support, I fear I wouldnāt have made it to today.
Brother Chen, over the years, every time I dreamt of you both, I could be happy for a long time. But sometimes Iād forget the dream once awake, leaving me regretful, hoping youād come into my dreams again.
The two held each other tightly, sharing their longing after the separation...

On the other side, Beijing Zheng Family.
Mr. Zheng waited for the health doctor to finish examining his wife: "How is it?"
The health doctor was full of excitement: "Itās better than expected. If I may ask, where did you get that ginseng? Its medicinal properties are far stronger than ordinary wild ginseng."
Mr. Zheng had previously discussed with his younger son Zheng Yuezhong, and decided not to reveal anything about the ginseng, so as not to bring trouble to that little girl.
Even though wild ginseng can be found with effort, a century-old wild ginseng relies entirely on luck.
In Beijing, where many value their lives, if they knew the good stuff came from that little girl, she wouldnāt have peace anymore. So only a few in the family, just him, his sons, were aware, even the women of the house werenāt informed.
Mr. Zheng waved it off: "This ginseng was found by Yuezhong through connections in the East Province. I donāt even know how many people he entrusted, and honestly, Iām not sure where exactly it came from."
His words were flawless.
