CHAPTER 611: CHAPTER 611 SHE NEEDS A HOPE

A week had passed and only one body, bloated and decomposed from being stuck in the coral, was found. When the body was salvaged, she fainted on the spot.

She was so afraid it was Tang Yuchen, but at the same time, she hoped to find him soon, so that he could be laid to rest.

At last, the identification results came back; it wasn’t Tang Yuchen, but someone else.

She breathed a sigh of relief, yet felt a profound sense of loss.

Several more days of searching yielded nothing. Even the police had given up, believing it was impossible to find him, but she still wouldn’t give up, continuing to spend a great deal of money and effort in the search.

Finally, Mo Hua came from J City and scolded her harshly. He said that Tang Yuchen couldn’t possibly still be alive, and that his body couldn’t be found either, so she should stop wasting her efforts.

He also said that even if she searched for her whole life, she might never find him, and that he might already have been eaten by the fish in the sea, leaving not even his bones behind.

His harsh words infuriated An Ruo, who then burst into inconsolable tears. She had been repressing her emotions for several days, not having cried or shown her feelings.

Once she began to cry, she wept for a long time, using up all her strength, eventually fainting in Mo Hua’s arms.

When she woke up, she had been in a deep sleep for two days and nights.

Mo stood by her side, and upon seeing her wake, he said, "Look at how thin you’ve become. Even if you don’t consider your own well-being, you should think of your child. I’ve heard that the child is yours and Tang Yuchen’s, right? Now that he’s gone, it’s up to you to take care of your child."

Yes, Kangkang still needed her care. She hadn’t taken care of him recently; he must be very sad.

For the sake of her child, An Ruo pulled herself together. She stopped searching for Tang Yuchen’s body, selfishly believing that if his body was not found, perhaps he was still alive.

She needed a hope, something to give her the courage to go on.

And fantasizing that he was still alive became her hope.

After spending several days recovering in the hospital, she felt much better.

Before leaving M City, she took Kangkang to the dock where the accident involving Tang Yuchen occurred. She threw a bunch of white daisies into the sea as a way to memorialize him.

Holding her child and standing on the ferry, with the sea breeze blowing, she whispered to the ocean, "Tang Yuchen, I will take good care of Kangkang, and I will also take care of myself. Don’t worry about us; we will live well."

Kangkang leaned quietly in her arms as if he understood what she was saying, his innocent eyes seemingly covered with a thin veil of sadness.

An Ruo encouraged him to call out to the sea for his father, and obediently, he called out "Daddy."

She looked out at the sea and said in her heart: ’Tang Yuchen, look, Kangkang can talk now. Can you hear him calling you?’
