Chapter 536 - 536 Bitter Love

536 Bitter Love

Xiao Ran’s heart was filled with sadness after being overwhelmed by his two daughters. A crack appeared in the huge sadness, and some surprises shot out from the crack. However, it was covered by the shadow of Qiao An’s “death”.

His limbs and bones were instantly dominated by too many emotions, but he was too weak and dizzy, so he could not tell what reaction he should have at this moment.

He was stunned on the spot. There were two little people in his arms. They were crying their hearts out. He was particularly affected by Angel’s unstable accusations. “Daddy, where have you been for the past few years? You know that Mommy and I miss you very much. Why didn’t you go home? You didn’t come back and Mommy cried every night.”

The child’s tears pierced Xiao Ran’s heart like needles. It was so painful that his heart suddenly tightened and he could not breathe.

After a long time, his barely breathing voice sounded from the desolation. “I’m sorry.”

Angel wrapped her arms tightly around his neck. This action was extremely similar to Qiao An’s. The angel sobbed as she generously forgave her father. “Daddy, I don’t blame you. Mommy said that you’re a hero. You have your reasons for not coming back. Mommy also said that Daddy can’t see us, but he actually misses us even more. Isn’t that right, Daddy?”

Xiao Ran nodded.

Yes, in the past few years, although he had forgotten where he had come from, he had always yearned for kinship.

It turned out that while he yearned for his family, they were tortured by pain.

He suddenly hugged Angel and Joey tightly. “Daddy won’t leave you again.”

Angel looked up from his arms happily. Wiping her tears, she said excitedly and sadly, “Daddy, you’re back. But Mommy is gone.”

Only then did Huo Xiaoran see his daughter’s exquisite face clearly. She really looked like Qiao An.

Her eyebrows were picturesque, and her skin was as fair as snow.

She was so beautiful that there was no flaw.

It was also at that moment that Xiao Ran’s fatherly love for Angel suddenly erupted like a volcano erupting.

He loved his child.

He reached out to touch Angel’s face and comforted the child with great sadness. “Mommy will be back.”

He knew this was a lie, but he only wanted to give the child something to think about.

Angel nodded, her eyes filled with tears. “Yes, Mommy will definitely come back. Just like Daddy.”

“Silly,” Ki Ki suddenly choked.

Xiao Ran looked up and his gaze landed on Ki Ki. The child was very tall and handsome. He actually looked very similar to him. Without a doubt, this was his son.

Ki Ki walked up to his daddy and knelt in front of him. He said to his daddy with red eyes, “Daddy, don’t be sad. You still have us.”

Xiao Ran touched his head and nodded. His voice was hoarse as he replied, “Yes.”

At this moment, the onlookers were shocked.

“So Qiao An is Xing Chen’s wife? They even have children?”

“Look at that child. It’s obvious that she’s Xing Chen’s. I didn’t expect Xing Chen to have a family and career long ago.”

Xing Xiaoya was mixed in the crowd. When she saw Xing Chen’s family reunited, she looked very upset.

However, on second thought, she felt extremely glad that Qiao An was dead. She thought she might be able to replace Qiao An as the children’s stepmother.

Moreover, looking at the children’s clothes and the style of Huo Zhou and the others, she guessed that Xingchen must not have been an ordinary person before he lost his memory. This made the vain Xing Xiaoya even more determined to chase after Xing Chen.

At this moment, she mustered her courage and walked timidly to Xiaoran and the children, in a show of concern about Xiao Ran’s health.

“Brother Xing Chen, you haven’t eaten for a day and night. Follow us down the mountain and recuperate first.”

Huo Xiaoran ignored her.

Xing Xiaoya glanced at the children. She knew how to grasp Xiaoran’s weak spots and said, “Brother Xing Chen, even if you don’t care about yourself, you have to take care of the children. These children are still so young. The mountains are cold and wet. They might catch a cold if they stay too long here.”

These words really touched Huo Xiaoran’s heart. He could disregard himself, but his fatherly love and guilt from being absent for a few years made him think about his children all the time.

Xiao Ming walked over and said to Xiaoran, “Xiaoran, I’ll carry you down the mountain.”

Xiao Ran was stubborn. “No need. I can walk.”

He staggered to his feet with the help of Ki Ki and his daughters. He staggered a few steps. Helpless, Xiao Ming pulled his hand to his shoulder and supported him down the mountain.

Xing Xiaoya was secretly happy. No matter what, Xing Chen had taken her suggestion.

Because Xiaoran did not have a home, Xing Xiaoya asked them to bring Xiaoran back to her home.

Xiaoran was actually still dispirited. However, Angel, Joey, and KiKi were very warm children, especially Angel. She kept taking care of her daddy.

“Daddy, drink some water.”

“Daddy, you’re hungry, right? I’ll make you some porridge.”

“Daddy, are you cold? Let me warm your hands.”

Xiaoran could not refuse the child’s filial piety.

Just like that, Angel pulled Xiaoran back from the brink of death.

After having a little strength, Xiaoran would chat with the children. Angel was a chatterbox and told her father everything that had happened in the family over the past four years.

“Daddy, there are many men who like Mommy. Granny said that their conditions are actually very outstanding. They were famous entrepreneurs, domineering CEOs, and high-ranking officials, but Mommy doesn’t like any of them. Mommy likes you. Brother and I only want our own daddy.”

“But except for Father Xiao. Because Father Xiao is Sister Joey’s biological father, and Sister’s mommy saved our mommy, Mommy said that Sister’s parents are also our parents. And our parents are also Sister’s parents.”

Xiaoran had heard from Qiao An that she had adopted a daughter, presumably Joey. He could naturally love this family.

“Yes. You and Sister are our children.”

At this moment, Huo Zhou walked in and sat down on the chair by the bed.

Angel tactfully bade farewell to her father. “Daddy, Uncle must have a lot to say to you. I’ll go out first. I’ll come and see you after you guys talk.”

Xiaoran nodded.

Angel went out.

Xiaoran’s gaze followed his daughter reluctantly. Huo Zhou sighed and said, “Xiaoran, Xiao Ming and I blame ourselves. Actually, when Qiao He told us that you were alive, we should have rushed over immediately. In that case, perhaps nothing would have happened to Qiao An. But we just want you and Qiao An to have more alone time. The two of you have loved each other too hard in this life.”

As Huo Zhou spoke, his eyes turned red.
