Chapter 458 Song Yu Han's Past (3)
The events that happened soon after the seven-year old Song Yu Han fell into a deep slumber, those are things that he was unclear about and wasn\'t able to hear and witness.
However, when he first woke up a few days later he got a \'surgery\', his mother was not by his side. An old man claiming to be his grandfather sat beside the bed where he was lying and watched him.
Song Yu Han was uncomfortable being stared at by a stranger who had just suddenly recognized himself to be a relative. He quickly looked for his mother, but even after making a round or two around the hospital he was sent in, his mother, who had begged him to not die, was nowhere in sight.
Song Yu Han didn\'t know why his mother was missing. But he still went to look for her, worried that the injuries she sustained from that man were too serious. He didn\'t want her to be in any dangerous situation. Most of all, he just wanted to see his mother again.
But as if his mother were just a fragment in his memories, days passed quickly, and yet, his mother never reappeared!
Though, there were some people who came as his \'relatives\'.
Strangest of them all, a man who claimed to be his \'father\' took a visit and looked at him with a stern look on his face. The displeasure and disappointment in his expression was too obvious that no one from the people he had brought that day dared to speak up.
"Xiao Han, are you alright? Do you want Mother to get something you want to eat?"
Of course, there was another woman who dressed elegantly and expensively. Her curled bun on the top of her head was cleanly combed and an overly friendly smile was on her lips.
But it was not his mother.
Song Yu Han frowned deeply before coldly replying, "You\'re not my mother. Who are you?"
The beautifully dressed woman only smiled and patted him on the head. But before she could touch him, Song Yu Han had already slapped her hand away so she couldn\'t place her paws on him.
Song Yu han was the most sensitive when he was young. He had been surrounded by people who had nothing but bad and evil intentions directed to him and his mother.
And thus, he could obviously see through the woman\'s plot and emotions.
As for why she suddenly called herself his mother, Song Yu Han had heard about the neighbor\'s family\'s child having a stepmother. Could it be that this woman was also his stepmother?
Of course, Song Yu Han never accepted this bastard father, so there was no need for him to even think of getting a stepmother as well!
However, he missed his mother so much. Where could she have gone to?
In the middle of the second month he had stayed inside the hospital, Song Yu Han still hadn\'t seen his mother. He could have gone on a hunger strike or even threatened these people to make him meet his mother, but he had been suppressed so much that he was afraid that his mother would be endangered because of him.
Naturally, he also had high hopes of meeting his mother as soon as he recovers. And so, Song Yu Han would be able to escape this place full of strange people!
But his plans were thwarted when he finally recovered a bit of his strength. The old man who had claimed to be his grandfather had sat down in the room with him and told him that his mother sold him to them, his family from his father\'s side.
Song Yu Han refused to believe it. His mother had been through thick and thin with him, why would she suddenly sell him? His mother might have done odd jobs to make money, but she would never abandon him!
These people should have done something to her and threatened her with him as a hostage!
Song Yu Han was deeply saddened and angered by this. The next day, he broke all the things inside the hospital room he was confined in and refused to eat. This was his last resort after enduring so much.
In the end, the old man finally relented and told him that his mother will come and see him.
Song Yu Han was extremely happy, but also vigilant.
However, his vigilance melted away when his mother really came to see him.
"Mother!" Song Yu Han instantly jumped towards his mother with a much deserved and longing hug.
Finally, the mother and son pair reunited.
The two of them conversed as if nothing mattered, nothing happened, and no troubles around them. They acted as if they were inside their own bubble where no one could intrude their world.
Song Yu Han and his mother talked about their daily lives, what they ate, how many hours they slept. They immediately caught up with each other, but they also found each other\'s loneliness.
"Mother... Can you take me with you?" said the young boy. He shook his head and held on to her sleeve tightly, "No, please take me with you! I don\'t care about anything else, I just... I want to be with you."
Song Yu Han saw his mother\'s shoulders trembling before she turned away as if to hide away the tears in her eyes. Unfortunately, her son had already seen it clearly and tears also appeared in his eyes.
The two hugged each other in that room without anyone interrupting them.
After several minutes of silence, a beep sound came from her wristwatch, and Lu Tingting forced herself to push her son away.
"Xiao Han, you need to promise your mother that you will stay and behave okay? Become the man that mother can be proud of. Be obedient and do what you want. Do not listen to other people even if they say bad things about you and mother, alright?"
"Mother... Why are you saying this?"
Lu Tingting couldn\'t bear to not tell him the truth, but she also couldn\'t tell him all of it. And so, she only said what would make her son work hard to become a great man.
"Mother will wait for you to grow taller and turn into an amazing man."
"Miss Lu, it\'s time."
The door to the room was pushed open and a guard spoke to remind her. She already had 30 minutes of her time to meet with her son. Anymore would be against the deal she made with Old Patriarch Song.
The guard started to pull her away.
Seeing this, Song Yu Han wanted to pull her back to his side. But what can a young boy with a thin body and measly strength compare to a man who had trained from the army?
Naturally, he was helpless against the guard and could only helplessly reach for his mother.
"No, don\'t leave me here!"
"Mother!"
Lu Tingting was harshly pulled by the guard and the tears she wanted to keep from spilling down her cheeks so her son wouldn\'t see it finally fell endlessly.
Her feet tried to bury themselves into the tiled floor, but it was still useless.
"Son, remember, Mother will always, always, love you!" Lu Tingting could only shout to her son as the door to her son\'s room was closed by another two guards guarding the room.
"Mother!"
Her son\'s screams could be heard accompanied by the banging of his fist against the door.
Lu Tingting looked towards her son\'s direction for a long while. When she finally got out of her daze, she was already pushed inside a high-end car.
Three important people were already inside and looked at her without an ounce of pity.
"You did great. It was a good decision for you to leave Song Yu Han with us." Old Patriarch Song threw an envelope on her lap. "Read the contents of the contract and sign it. The amount I\'ll give you should be enough for you to save the Lu family."
Lu Tingting looked coldly at the three people and bit her lips until blood appeared.
These people... When will they stop tormenting her and her family?
"You\'re so heartless, Song Ruan. You can\'t even bear to strip me off the only thing that makes my life a bit better after you left me with the mess you did to my family," Lu Ting Ting laughed as tears renewed in her eyes.
Song Ruan frowned. Although it has been several years since he had last seen Lu Tingting, it was difficult to tear away all of his feelings for her. After all, Lu Tingting was a woman he once had affection for.
This woman still shared a bed with him and also gave birth to a son. He could allow her to see her son once in a while if he only said a few words to his father.
However, his slight hesitation and contemplation was seen by his wife, Cao
Huiling.
Hiding the hatred and jealousy in her eyes, she elegantly flashed a smile and said, "Sister Tingting shouldn\'t be worried. Xiao Han will also become my son from now on. I will make sure to take care of him so that you don\'t have to feel brokenhearted."
Lu Tingting closed her eyes. She knew that Cao Huiling\'s words might have sounded comforting and sincere, but she could sense the threat in it if she didn\'t agree and sign the contract.
But what made her feel resigned was the fact that if she could actually hear the silent meaning in Cao Huiling\'s words, how could these two powerful men from the Song family not get it?
Certainly, they should have known a long time ago!
