“Are you a medical student?” The message read. it seemed to have been sent by someone he’d added as a friend on the messaging app named Fang Feijin.

After this person had added him, they didn’t exchange many messages, but there were not many messages, but Luo Ziling had always felt that this person was very strange. Perhaps it was someone he knew?

For some reason, he actually thought that the other party was Ouyang Feifei.

Perhaps it was because their name had the word “Fei” in it!

After giving it a little thought, Luo Ziling replied, “Yes! Are you also a student?”

He reckoned that the other party would not reply immediately and simply continued to read his other messages.

But surprisingly, he received a reply almost immediately.

“Can I ask you about medical matters in the future?”

“Sure,” Luo Ziling promised. “I’ve been learning medicine from my grandfather since I was young, and my medical skills are superb.”

In the end, “Fang Feijin” replied with a few vomiting emojis, which depressed Luo Ziling. Sulking, he replied, “If you don’t believe me, then forget it.”

The other party did not reply, and so he ignored them.

When he opened the last message, he was surprised to find that it was from a different friend called Yue.

“How’s the military training these few days? If I had to guess, it’s probably quite tiring, right?”

Luo Ziling immediately replied, “It’s fine, I guess. I’m strong, so I don’t get tired easily. I took a leave of absence this afternoon.”

“Why?” Yue immediately replied.

“Someone came to see me, so I asked for leave.”

“Oh? You know how to do a check-up?” The other party seemed to be quite interested, and the reply seemed to give off a feeling of awe on their end.

“Yes, my grandfather is quite a famous Chinese medicine practitioner. I’ve studied medicine with him since I was young and received his teachings.” Luo Ziling’s face was full of pride as he sent the message.

“You’re too amazing. Your grandfather must be proud of you.” The other party quickly replied with a few clapping emojis.

Luo Ziling replied with one smiling emoji.

Just when he thought that that was the end of the conversation, he was surprised when Yue asked him something out of the blue. “Were you unhappy today?”

Luo Ziling thought for a moment and could not help but ask the other party a question in return. “If you knew that your mother was in the same city as you, but was unwilling to visit you, what would you think?”

He didn’t expect that his somewhat abrupt question would make the woman talking to him burst out in tears.

“Miss, What’s Wrong?” Wu Yue was given a shock when she saw her Mistress staring at the phone screen and crying bitterly. She hurriedly walked forward and asked in a low voice, “Is it…”

She couldn’t finish the question because she had already seen the message on the phone screen.

‘Wu Yue was shocked and found herself at a loss.

Her mistress crying so happily, though she had never lost control of her emotions before. She quickly grabbed a tissue and handed it over.

“Miss, did he already guess that it was you?” she asked in a low voice when she handed the tissue over, .

Ling Ruonan took the tissue and wiped her tears away, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not wipe them all away.

She could not control her emotions as hot tears rolled down her cheeks.

‘Wu Yue thought for a moment, took the phone, and replied, “Why would you ask such a question?”

‘The message notification immediately rang out again, and she looked down at the phone to read it. “I haven’t seen my mother since I was young. Today, someone told me that my mother is nearby, but she hasn’t come to see me. And I don’t know why.”
After reading the message, Wu Yue silently put down the phone and placed it in front of Ling Ruonan.

Ling Ruonan, who was wiping her tears, saw the message and her tears flowed even more joyfully.

In order to prevent herself from crying out loud, she covered her mouth with all her might.

After a while, she bit her lip and replied, “Does your mother still care about you?”

“I think so. She knows all about me, but I don’t know where she is.” There were a few confused emojis at the end of the message.

“The fact that your mother cares about you proves that she loves you very much. You haven’t seen her since you were young, so something must have happened. The reason why she hasn’t come to see you now isn’t because she doesn’t want to, but because she has no other choice.”
After clicking send, Ling Ruonan’s tears rolled down again, her eyes now red and bloodshot.

“Thope that’s the case,” Luo Ziling replied.

The message was followed up with, “I grew up with my grandfather, you see, and I don’t know where my parents are. I feel so pitiful. Today, someone said that they would bully me until I ran off crying for my parents. But I don’t even know where they are, so how can go crying to them?”
These words hit Ling Ruonan straight in her heart again, drawing forth even more tears even though the tissue in her hand was already soaked through.

“In the future, you will definitely be able to see your father and mother. I can guarantee that,” she replied, typing with one hand while covering her mouth with the other. “No one can bully you until you cry for your parents, because they don’t have the ability.”
“Lhope so, too!” came the reply.

Then, another message came. “After talking to you, I feel a little better.”

“If you ever feel bad about anything in the future, you can tell me. I’m willing to lend an ear.” Ling Ruonan added a hug emoji at the end of her message.

Oh, how much she wanted to hug the little man that she was chatting with…

For so many years, so many of her dreams were of this exact scenario.

Although she had not seen him for so many years, her computer was still chock full of pictures of him when he was younger. Every time she saw the photos that Luo Liansheng would send her, she would hide and cry alone.
“But I don’t know you!” Luo Ziling quickly replied.

“Don’t we know each other now? One can also make good friends online, you know.” When she sent this message, she felt a little nervous, afraid that Luo Ziling wouldn’t be willing to treat her as a friend and talk to her from the bottom of his heart.
“alright, if there’s anything unhappy in the future, I’ll talk to you. But you’re not allowed to laugh at me.”

“Why would I laugh at you? I’m very happy that you’re willing to be honest with me. I’m very proud that I could gain your trust,” Ling Ruonan replied, laughing with tears in her eyes.

After a brief pause, Luo Ziling sent another message. “My mother is actually very beautiful.”

At the end of the message, he’d attached a photo. It seemed to have been touched up at some point.

It was followed up with another message, saying, “This is a photo of my mother when she was young. Isn’t she beautiful?”

There were a few proud emojis at the end.

Seeing this photo, Ling Ruonan could not control her emotions again and cried out loud.

He was actually proud of her beauty.

“I’s a pity that I only have one photo of her. I don’t know whether she has gotten older and uglier or not, but I really hope that she will always remain beautiful. I was still thinking that if we meet one day, I wouldn’t dare to treat her as a mother and would think that she is just my sister. It would be
interesting to think about, in any case,” he continued. “Whenever I see my mother, I think that she is really too young, She is so young and beautiful that I wouldn’t dare to recognize her as my mom. Isn’t that interesting?”

This news caused Ling Ruonan to completely lose control of her emotions. She covered her face and lay on the table, crying loudly.
