Chapter 526: Chapter 526
A few minutes later, Mo Lingqi arrived, accompanied by Princess Basha.
Tears streamed down Nan Yuesheng’s face uncontrollably. Seeing him again felt like a century had passed.
His gaze was so foreign, devoid of love.
"Ling Qi, she’s Nan Yuesheng, your girlfriend before you went missing, and this child is your daughter," Mo Mu said.
"Daddy..." Mo Ningyi, led by Nan Yuesheng, looked up at Mo Lingqi with a babyish voice, "Daddy..."
The atmosphere turned cold in an instant.
Princess Basha was completely thrown off, looking from Nan Yuesheng to the child who looked so much like Mo Lingqi, a hint of panic rose in her heart.
Seemingly noticing this, Mo Lingqi took her hand and whispered, "It’s okay, you go sit down first."
Princess Basha shook her head, "I don’t want to."
Mo Lingqi’s eyes settled on Nan Yuesheng, a beautiful girl with makeup ruined by tears. She was so heartbroken, yet he was unmoved. If his mother hadn’t told him this was his former girlfriend, he would never have imagined it.
And looking at the little girl who resembled himself, he felt a complicated emotion stir within him.
"I don’t remember you."
Such a calm statement.
"You and your wife don’t have to worry. I’m not here to ask for anything with the child, I never had that intention." Her voice tinged with sadness, "I just wanted you to know that we once loved each other, that this child is your daughter, that’s all. So you don’t have to feel any burden."
"The child..." Princess Basha spoke up, "If you are willing, I am prepared to raise her as my own."
"If I am willing?" Nan Yuesheng laughed, "She is my life, even in death I wouldn’t let you raise her."
"Then we will provide child support," Princess Basha seemed very generous, "Apart from him, whatever you want, if I can satisfy it, I will definitely compensate you." The rıghtful source is Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
This show of magnanimity weighed heavily on Nan Yuesheng, nearly crushing her.
"I don’t want anything. I won’t come to find him with the child in the future, rest assured."
"Playing hard to get is pointless, you need to think this through," Princess Basha warned.
Nan Yuesheng turned to Long Yubei, "Let’s go back."
Long Yubei nodded, "Okay."
He still introduced himself to Mo Lingqi once more, "I’m Long Yubei. We lived together in college, we were very tight. After your incident, I’ve always been looking for you, never giving up until today. These past two or three years, Yuesheng has been staying at my place, waiting for you. She loves you deeply. Once, you loved her deeply too."
Long Yubei wanted to relay everything, understanding the feelings Gu Lili had when she wanted him to know the truth.
Princess Basha clutched Mo Lingqi’s hand tightly.
"Thank you for taking care of them." Mo Lingqi looked at Nan Yuesheng, "Now that I know about this, I won’t ignore you. I’ll buy you a flat, and you can move out to live there."
His intention was clear.
He would take responsibility for the mother and daughter but only to provide for their basic needs. As for anything else, they shouldn’t get their hopes up.
Nan Yuesheng had only ever wanted him.
She bent down to pick up Mo Ningyi, "No need. We won’t see each other again in the future. I wish you happiness."
Seeing her walk away, Long Yubei had no choice but to follow.
All the way back to the plane, Nan Yuesheng held her child in her arms and looked out the window, her eyes void of tears, for there is no greater sorrow than a dead heart.
If one can’t fight the facts, they must accept them.
Long Yubei called out, "Yuesheng..."
