all is meant to be

Chapter 39

The next morning, when Mu Ruiming woke up, it was almost ten o'clock in the morning, and Ling Yang had already left.

He stayed on the bed for a while to check the time and felt that he might be embarrassed if he didn't get up again, so he got up, washed and went downstairs.

Lingyang's adoptive father was also out, and Mu Ruiming saw Lingyang's adoptive mother busy in the kitchen.

He walked over and said hello embarrassedly: "Auntie, good morning..."

"Oh, Ruiming, you're up, are you sleeping well?" Lingyang's adoptive mother asked with a smile

"Well, I slept well, sorry for your inconvenience." Mu Ruiming said

"You don't have to be so polite." Lingyang's adoptive mother said: "Breakfast milk, sandwiches, are you okay?"

"Well, it's all right, I won't pick one, thanks for your hard work, auntie!" Mu Ruiming said quickly

"Then just wait for a while, and it will be fine soon." Lingyang's adoptive mother said with a smile

"Yingying called me just now to ask if you were up. I think you told her to come back after lunch before you got up." Lingyang's adoptive mother

"Oh, that Lingyang told her to let her take me around." Mu Ruiming

"Well, Lingyang said that he can only come back after dinner, then you can only accompany me, the old woman, after dinner, haha." Lingyang's adoptive mother said

"No way, Auntie, you really don't look like someone who is about to be 50 years old at most. You can look good in your 30s at most. Lingyang's temperament is inherited from you." Mu Ruiming said sincerely

"Hehe, no wonder Yangyang said you are attractive, your mouth is so sweet, but Yangyang is actually very similar to her mother..." Lingyang's adoptive mother said.

While Lingyang's adoptive mother was preparing breakfast in the kitchen, Mu Ruiming walked to the fireplace in the living room and looked at the photo of Lingyang and his adoptive parents' family of three.

The adoptive mother came out with breakfast and saw Mu Ruiming looking at the photos and said, "By the way, do you want to see Yangyang's childhood photos? I have a lot here, from elementary school to university."

"Okay!" Mu Ruiming was pleasantly surprised. He almost forgot what Lingyang looked like when he was a child. Thinking about the scene where the twin brothers were called Aunt Lingyang, he couldn't help grinning, feeling a little impatient. Look at the photos.

Mu Ruiming quickly finished his milk and sandwich, and waited for Lingyang's adoptive mother to bring the photo album.

After a while, Lingyang's adoptive mother came down from upstairs, holding 5 or 6 photo albums in her hands. Mu Ruiming hurried forward to help take them and put them on the table.

The old and new photo albums vary. Mu Ruiming opened the top one, which looks newer. The words recorded on the title page show that this is a photo from Lingyang University.

Mu Ruiming flipped through the photos, and the photos were arranged in chronological order. There were photos of Ling Yang holding a notice just after he was admitted to university, there were also photos of him playing games with his classmates in the dormitory, and there were also photos of Ling Yang who had just been admitted to university and played games with his classmates. photos, including photos of opening a training school with Nie Kai...

Lingyang in college has hardly changed from now, with the same eyebrows and shoulder-length hair tied behind his head.

While watching, Mu Ruiming asked, "Did Lingyang open a training school in college?"

"Yes, he and Nie Kai are classmates, and our two families are neighbors. Ever since Yangyang High School won the first prize in the Chopin International Piano Competition, we have discussed with Nie Kai about opening a training school," said Lingyang's adoptive mother. : "Here, this is from Yangyang High School. It contains photos of him participating in competitions and winning prizes."

Mu Ruiming opened the photo album handed over by Lingyang's adoptive mother, and saw that several pages were full of photos of Lingyang when he participated in the competition, as well as photos of winning awards. At that time, Lingyang didn't have long hair yet, so he looked even more Youthful and immature, feeling more delicate.

Mu Ruiming flipped through the photo albums, and felt that Lingyang's adoptive mother really loved Lingyang very much, and she could feel her heart in every photo album.

From top to bottom, the album gradually becomes old, and the Lingyang in the album is more and more able to evoke Mu Ruiming's memory of Lingyang as a child.

When they turned to the photo album at the bottom, Lingyang and Mu Ruiming's memories of the orphanage were almost the same.

Mu Ruiming remembered the first time he saw Lingyang, he was shy and at a loss and stayed away from the crowd, his big eyes with deep openings at the end of the eyes were slightly tilted up in flesh pink, and his fair skin matched She has an oval-shaped face, and she looks like a peach when shy... She is really prettier than a little girl!

On one page of the photo album, there was a photo sandwiched between them. Mu Ruiming suddenly stopped turning the page and hung his hand in the air.

Slowly, Mu Ruiming picked up the photo and held it up to his eyes to see it more clearly.

He knew all three of them above. Isn't this his father and biological mother? But, the other...how could it be Lingyang's adoptive mother?Although young, Mu Ruiming recognized him at a glance...

Seeing Mu Ruiming holding the photo in a daze, Lingyang's adoptive mother said strangely: "Why is this photo clipped here?"

"This is...?" Mu Ruiming asked

"Oh, these are my biological parents and Lingyang's." Lingyang's adoptive mother said

Mu Ruiming felt his head explode with a bang, and it went blank. What's going on, it's obviously his parents!

"We are classmates in college, and Lingyang's mother and I are best friends." Lingyang's adoptive mother continued.

.............

"You say... Who do you say they are?

Mu Ruiming didn't seem to hear what Lingyang's adoptive mother said, and asked each word with difficulty.

Seeing that Mu Ruiming's expression was not quite right, Lingyang's adoptive mother asked, "What's the matter with you, Ruiming, what's wrong?"

"Tell me, tell me again, who are they?" Mu Ruiming still repeated the words just now

"Oh, they are Lingyang's biological parents, and we are college classmates." Lingyang's adoptive mother felt that Mu Ruiming's reaction was not quite right.

"Are you sure?" Mu Ruiming's voice began to tremble uncontrollably

"Well, yes." Lingyang's adoptive mother looked at Mu Ruiming strangely.

Mu Ruiming didn't want to believe what Lingyang's adoptive mother said. He felt that he needed to calm down and take a closer look at the photos...but this time he was completely desperate.

The two women holding hands in the photo have two identical bracelets on their hands, and one is now being worn by Lingyang's adoptive mother, which is exactly the same as the bracelet that Lingyang lay on the bed after returning from her birth mother's grave on the night of the winter solstice. of......

Lingyang said that the bracelet belonged to his biological mother...

Mu Ruiming asked the last question with difficulty: "He knows about Lingyang, right?"

"Huh?" Lingyang's adoptive mother didn't understand what Mu Ruiming asked.

"I mean, Lingyang knows that these are his biological parents, right?" Mu Ruiming asked again

"Oh, this, he knows, this photo was originally with me, he asked me where to go before returning to China, somehow it will be caught in it now." Lingyang adoptive mother said

Mu Ruiming felt that he couldn't help thinking: So Lingyang knew that he was not Mu Hai's biological son, he was...

No wonder Lingyang was so surprised when he saw Mu's villa for the first time... No wonder when she told him how to speak to make his parents accept his relationship, Lingyang would say that was not the key, And said they would definitely accept it...

Why, how did this happen, what is the truth that I just learned a few months ago, and I have struggled with it for a long time, and finally chose to forgive, he doesn't want to lose this family relationship, he doesn't want to lose a family ....

But now, what is all this, they have nothing to do with me at all, why should I enjoy Mu Hai Jin Guizhi's love, why should I enjoy a carefree life, and why should I choose to forgive What they did, why should they bear the sentimentality of this so-called biological mother they have never met...

I am nobody...everything is non-existent....

Why does Lingyang pretend not to know when he knows everything, why does he even lie to himself...

What else does Lingyang know, can I still trust him... Is it true that he returned to China just to find himself?

Mu Ruiming sniffed, restraining the tears that were about to fall, and tried his best to maintain normal breathing.

Slowly he opened his mouth again: "Auntie, can you call Nie Ying and ask her to come here now."

"Well, okay, are you okay, do you want me to call Lingyang?" Lingyang's adoptive mother asked with concern

"No, he should be busy now, please call Nie Ying over for me, thank you." Mu Ruiming said

Lingyang's adoptive mother called the Nie family, and Nie Ying arrived in a short while.

Seeing Mu Ruiming come down from the upstairs carrying a small bag and luggage, Nie Ying asked strangely, "Brother Ruiming, what's the matter, what are you?"

Mu Ruiming said to Lingyang's adoptive mother who was also puzzled: "Auntie, I'm sorry, I suddenly have something to go back to China, thank you and uncle for your hospitality, I will accompany you if you come to China if you have the opportunity, I will go first, goodbye!"

After speaking, he dragged Nie Ying out, leaving behind Lingyang's adoptive mother who was at a loss.

Lingyang's adoptive mother stared blankly at Mu Ruiming pulling Nie Ying out of the yard, she regained her senses and quickly called Lingyang, but Lingyang didn't know if she was busy and didn't hear it, she didn't answer... .

Nie Ying was baffled by Mu Ruiming. As soon as she walked out of the yard, she stopped and refused to leave, and asked, "Brother Ruiming, what are you doing? Didn't you just come here? Brother Lingyang asked me to show you around." Let's go shopping."

"I have something to do and I have to go back to China now, please take me to the airport now!" Mu Ruiming looked at Nie Ying and said seriously

"Um, what's the matter, I have to leave now, does Brother Lingyang know?" Nie Ying asked

"It has nothing to do with him. It's my business. Please take me to the airport now, or I'll take a taxi by myself. Anyway, I must go to the airport now."

Seeing Mu Ruiming's firm tone, Nie Ying said: "Okay, okay, don't worry, I'll take you there, it's not easy to take a taxi here! That's, that, are you sure you don't need to talk to brother Lingyang?"

"No, I said I don't care about him!" Mu Ruiming said

"Oh, okay..." Nie Ying felt that the Mu Ruiming in front of her was different from the one she saw in China last time, and she was a little afraid of him.

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Mu Ruiming rebooked the earliest flight back to City Z at New York Kennedy Airport and left New York.
