is."The village head waved him over, and he chased after her, returning to Fang Jinshu with a look of deep apology."Jinxiu, your stepmother is just like that. You, you shouldn't be as petty with her."...Two little kids rushed into Fang Jinshi's arms, one on each side, and refused to let go.

"Mother, I knew you would come to save us."

Fang Jinshi took a careful look at both children up and down, still not reassured, she asked.

"Are you two alright Are you hurt"

Dong'er shook her head, Yuanbao chirped a whole bunch of gibberish.

Dong'er's brother is good-natured, but he holds grudges.

"This prince is too wicked! He tied me and my brother up with ropes and locked us in a small house."

"You made me and my brother go hungry for so long, our stomachs are totally empty!"

Fang Jinxiu, with a stoic expression, reached out her finger to wipe the crumbs of snack from Xiao Yuanbao's mouth.

"Wipe your mouth clean before you complain, is that what you mean by being awfully hungry"

The finest white jade pastry, it seems that Prince Jing didn't really make things difficult for Yuanbao and Dong'er.

Since Dong'er appeared in the hall, King Jing had his eyes fixed on him. Dong'er noticed this and felt a little uncomfortable, hiding behind Fang Jinshi.

"Mother, he, he's looking at me like that why"

Dong'er whispered.

Fang Jinshu glanced at the adopted son. Since he had found his family, it was a good thing for Dong'er.

"Dong'er, he, is your biological father."

She led Dong'er to Jing Wang's presence. As they got closer, she realized that Jing Wang's hands were already trembling slightly.

"Mother, what are you saying"

"How could he possibly be my biological father, I, I..."

Upon hearing the news, Dong'er was utterly dumbfounded, her heart racing in confusion.

Various emotions surged within me.

He is eight years old this year. He has been more mature than other children of his age since he was young. In addition, his stepmother has encouraged him to recall memories before he got lost over the years so that he can find his real family in the future.

Donner had always been prepared in his heart, he just needed to find his biological parents.

Looking at King Jing's face, which was both familiar and heartwarming, Dong'er had a vague idea in her heart.

And his stepmother would be absolutely impossible to deceive in this matter.

"Jing Wangye is indeed your biological father. I had already confirmed this before you arrived."

"Dong'er, go."

Her palm pressed against Dong'er's back, gently pushing him a step closer to the Prince of Jing.

The reunion between father and son was a bit awkward. Fu Shangyuan really wanted to hug his son, to soothe the joy of finding him again after so long.

He saw Dong'er's timid and somewhat resistant eyes, and forcibly restrained his actions.

So the child wouldn't run away as soon as they got home.

"Fang Jinshi understood and said, 'Since you two have just reunited as father and son, there are surely many things to say.'"

"Dong'er, would you be willing to stay at the palace tonight If you are, your stepmother will come to take you back tomorrow morning."

"If you don't wish to."

Halfway through her eloquent speech, Fang Jinxiu abruptly stopped and turned to look at King Jing.

"Please give the child some time to adjust. Since he's already in the capital, it's only a matter of time before they recognize each other. Please don't pressure Dong'er."

Fu Shangyu frowned. How could he possibly force Dong'er This was his precious son whom he had been thinking about day and night, searching for for three years.

He was just afraid that Dong'er would forget him, his biological father, and would rather stay with Fang Jinshi, her adoptive mother, than recognize him.

"I won't force Donger."

"Child, your father really has a lot to say to you. Don't you want to find out what happened to your mother"

We can do this together.

Dong'er turned her head and looked at Fang Jinshu with hesitation.

He was quite curious about how his biological mother was doing now, and he knew that only the man in front of him could help him find out.

If you stayed, it would feel like betraying your stepmother's years of kindness and care.

He had lived by Fang Jinshui's side for three or four years, never thinking of leaving the Zong family, let alone leaving his adoptive mother and Yuanbao.

And also Grandma Mu and Aunt Xiaoyue.

Fang Jinshu saw Dong'er was struggling with something, so she stepped forward and patted his shoulder.

"Don't be afraid, your stepmother said she will come to take you home tomorrow morning."

"No matter who your biological parents are, whether or not you find them, the door to our home is always open for you."

Yuan Bao pulled Dong'er's sleeve and shook it.

"Mother is right, Brother Dong'er will always be Yuanbao's elder brother."

Fan Jinxiu scooped up Xiao Yuanbao in her arms and gently tapped his little nose. The little fellow was very well-behaved at this moment.

Dong'er remained silent, and Fang Jinshu knew his choice without him having to speak. Without a word, she nodded to King Jing with Yuanbao in her arms and turned to leave." Fang Jinshu didn't even raise her head, not giving him a glance."What is it you ask.""How much do you really know about this auction Are there still things you're not telling me"Fu Ming was taken ab...
