Translator: Vesper

When Nangong Yan rushed over to propose, he was told that Xiao Cheng Ya had already died.

At that time, he almost sent troops to Xiao Empire, the Xiao Emperor then told him that Xiao Cheng Ya was simply unwilling to wake up, they needed to find the godly doctor with mysterious whereabouts to wake her up.

When he found and invited the godly doctor, he realized Xiao Cheng Ya’s body was already missing.

He had searched Xiao Empire for a long time, he almost flipped over the whole Xiao Empire, he even used the lives of commoners to threaten the Xiao Emperor, but he was unable to obtain any news regarding Xiao Cheng Ya.

Judging from the Xiao Emperor’s situation, he too did not know how or why Xiao Cheng Ya suddenly vanished.

Ning Meng Yao understood after listening for a while” Why didn’t you find her?”

”Why didn’t I find her? I began searching for her since that time, at the beginning, I could still openly search in Xiao Empire, later on, I continued searching in secret,” Nangong Yan said bitterly.

His own wife and child had vanished just like that, how could he not search for her? It had been more than a decade but there was still no news, it was only until recently that he obtained some news, and the resulting find was his daughter.

”So you’ve never thought of giving up?” Ning Meng Yao thought of the news she investigated. Nangong Yan had been searching for someone nonstop for more than a decade.

Yan shook his head: “I’ve never once thought of it, regardless of whether dead or alive, I have to find both of you, mother and child, no matter how long it takes,” It was his wife, how could he just let her move alone around outside?

”Can I call you Yao’er?” Just when Ning Meng Yao wanted to say something, Nangong Yan spoke first, he looked at Ning Meng Yao in anticipation.

Seeing the anticipation in his eyes, Ning Meng Yao was unable to reject it, she could only nod her head: “Alright.”

”Yao’er, the moment I saw you, I was able to confirm that you are definitely Ya’er and my child, I’m sure of it,” Nangong Yan spoke with excitement.

Ning Meng Yao was astonished as she looked at Nangong Yan: “Why?”

”It’s because your eyes are exactly like your mother’s,” Wasn’t it that pair of eyes that attracted him at that time?

She unconsciously reached out and touched her eyes, she then looked at Nangong Yan and knew that he was not lying.

”Yao’er, I know it’s very hard for you to accept me in such a short amount of time, but I can wait, I’ve been waiting for so many years already, I do not mind waiting some more,” Nangong Yan looked at Ning Meng Yao and said earnestly.

Ning Meng Yao opened her mouth, she wanted to ask if he was scared or not of being mistaken, but when she saw Nangong Yan acting that way, she felt that she was unable to say such words.

”Have you found any news about her?” Ning Meng Yao did not wish to stick to that topic.

”I already have news, at that time, you were sent out from Xiao Royal Residence by some people. I was thinking that there’s a seventy or eighty percent your mother is in Xiao Dukel Residence,” During the time that he was here, he had secretly searched Xiao Duke Residence, but he was unable to find her.

Ning Meng Yao was stunned, it was Xiao Residence again, why would it be Xiao Residence?

”How can you be so certain?”

”At that time, the way that Xiao Yi Lin looked at Ya’er was the same as me, but he did not dare mention it due to their sibling relationship. I think that at that time he had taken her away due to his selfish desires, so I wonder how your mother is right now,” There was a worry in Nangong Yan’s eyes.

Xiao Cheng Ya was able to give birth, which proves that she is still alive, but it was not known how was she right now and what had happened these past few years.

Ning Meng Yao furrowed her brows, she still found this matter to be strange. That shouldn’t be the case.

”That shouldn’t be.”

”Huh?”

”If it was really so, it would be impossible for Xiao Yi Lin to marry someone else,” There were even many concubines in his residence.

When Nangong Yan heard those words, he laughed sarcastically: “Yao’er, you think too highly of Xiao Yi Lin. Power and status are things that everyone pursues.”

”Then why don’t you like it?” Just for the sake of finding someone, he even abandoned his high status.

Nangong Yan looked at Ning Meng Yai, there was a loving smile in his eyes: “If I did not have you both around, mother and daughter, so what if I have a high status?”

Qiao Tian Cheng who was by the side was able to empathize with Nangong Yan’s feelings. It’s lonely being at the top, it could not be compared to the joy of being with the person or people you love.
