Chapter 650: Chapter 618 Parents Arrive
Si Boyi felt guilty, thinking everything was his fault that led to Tong Yao returning all the way from Kyoto. At this point, there was not much he could say, feeling that all words seemed hollow and pointless.
Zheng Xiaoshuang too, kept quiet. Now a mother herself, she would also be extremely worried if she were Tong Yao, hence she understood her feelings.
Everyone sat in the ward, unable to do anything but wait. Soon, it was evening, Gu Hongwei drove to the railway station ahead of time to wait for Tong Yaohui and Wen Yun. Li City’s railway station was small and because it was not during the Spring Festival travel rush, there were not many people catching trains, so it didn’t take him long to find the silhouettes of Tong Yaohui and Wen Yun among the crowd.
The couple had brought many contains of stuff with them, Gu Hongwei went over to take the bags and led them to the parking lot. Initially full of smiles, Tong Yaohui and Wen Yun’s faces fell upon seeing Gu Hongwei, sensing that things might not be as simple as they thought.
Tong Yao had given birth prematurely. Seeing Gu Hongwei’s serious expression, Tong Yaohui asked, "Hongwei, are you hiding something from us?"
Being the factory director for many years, Tong Yaohui had a sense of things. He noticed Gu Hongwei had not smiled much since they met, and intuitively known something was amiss.
As soon as Wen Yun heard this, she immediately became nervous and looked at Gu Hongwei, "Hongwei, is there something wrong with Yaoyao?"
Though they certainly loved their grandchildren, to them, their daughter was more important. Put simply, they loved their grandchildren because they were their daughter’s children.
They were a case of ’love me, love my dog’.
Gu Hongwei quickly responded, "Mr. Tong, Mrs. Wen, don’t worry. Yaoyao is fine. Even though she gave birth prematurely, she’s in good health."
Hearing this, the worries in Tong Yaohui’s heart had eased a bit, only to rise again. "Is there a problem with the baby?"
Gu Hongwei mentioned that Yaoyao was fine but brought up the baby immediately after. Hence, Tong Yaohui immediately thought of the baby, with Wen Yun also looking anxiously at Gu Hongwei.
Knowing that he couldn’t hide this, they would find out once they arrived at the hospital anyway, Gu Hongwei decided to tell them now to let them prepare themselves. He said calmly, "Yaoyao gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl. Although they were premature, she and the children are fine."
Tong Yaohui and Wen Yun felt confused, if both the children were ok, then why was Gu Hongwei...?
Though they held doubts in their hearts, they did not interrupt Gu Hongwei, and just listened to him continue, "However, the head of the obstetrics department who helped Yaoyao with the delivery secretly gave her baby girl to someone, who took her to Kyoto. Now we’ve informed the police, and they are waiting there."
Upon hearing this, Wen Yun’s eyes went black and she almost fainted but was quickly supported by Gu Hongwei and Tong Yaohui.
With Wen Yun’s emotions slightly stabilized, she trembled as she asked, "The baby had just been born and yet was taken away by train, don’t these beasts even care whether a newborn could bear that or not?"
Tong Yaohui’s face turned dark, but he stayed calm. At the moment, the best thing is that the baby is fine. He said, "Let’s go to the hospital first. Yaoyao is already very weak, and we, being her parents, shouldn’t add more chaos."
Wen Yun also knew that seeing Tong Yao at the hospital and finding the baby was the top priority. She nodded and quickly got into the car.
Gu Hongwei brought them to the hospital. Seeing her parents, Tong Yao’s eyes went red as she struggled to hold back her tears.
Tong Yaohui and Wen Yun, seeing the weak Tong Yao, felt an overwhelming heartache. Wen Yun rushed to her bed and immediately comforted her. "Yaoyao, don’t worry, the baby will be fine. Hongwei said the police are waiting at the train station, the baby will be found."
As long as the baby was not in the hands of human traffickers, they would not be hard to find.
Tong Yaohui also comforted, "Rest well, don’t fall ill. The baby will be fine."
Tong Yao nodded, pointing to the baby boy lying next to her and said, "Mom, dad, this is your grandson."
Tong Yaohui and Wen Yun’s attention had been concentrated on Tong Yao before they even noticed the baby. Their expressions became soft when they saw the baby. Tong Yaohui went to hold the baby but was stopped by Wen Yun.
"You are careless, don’t hurt the baby. Let me hold him." Saying that, she picked up the baby and said, "The baby looks like Xiaochen."
Tong Yaohui was unhappy with his wife’s words and protested: "Didn’t I hold Yaoyao frequently when she was a baby?"
He went to Wen Yun’s side and looked at the baby together. Seeing the baby’s face was as small as a fist, he asked worryingly, "How much did the baby weigh at birth?"
Before Tong Yao could answer, the baby suddenly cried loudly. Wen Yun felt distressed and said, "Is he hungry?"
Tong Yao shook her head. "I don’t think so, he just ate a while ago."
Upon hearing this, Tong Yaohui immediately suggested: "Then he must have wet or dirtied his diaper. Check if he’s wet, I’ll get a diaper."
Wen Yun put down the baby, unfolded the quilt and checked. Indeed, the diaper was wet. She laughed and said, "This child is just like Yaoyao when she was a baby. He cries as soon as he’s a bit wet. He likes to be clean."
Tong Yaohui handed the diaper that he brought to Wen Yun, letting her change the baby. Once the diaper was changed, the baby soon drifted off into content sleep.
Due to the arrival of Tong Yaohui and Wen Yun, the atmosphere in the ward became a bit lighter. Si Boyi suggested going out to buy meals for Wen Yun and Tong Yaohui who haven’t had their dinner yet, but was stopped by Gu Hongwei.
"I’ll go! I will call and check on the situation in Kyoto on the way."
Upon hearing this, Si Boyi said: "Then I’ll go with you."
Gu Hongwei looked at Tong Yao and considered that there were people here to take care of her, he agreed.
It was half an hour when they came back, and their expressions were not very pleasant. Seeing everyone looking at them worriedly, Gu Hongwei said: "No one has picked up the phone. Don’t worry too much. Wenwen might have taken the baby home, and didn’t have time to answer the phone. Let’s eat first! I will call again after we finish."
Tong Yao simply couldn’t eat. She had some pieces of porridge and suggested again to return to Kyoto, "Dad, Mom, after we finish our meal, let’s go back to Kyoto!"
The baby hadn’t been found, and she couldn’t settle down. Now, every time she closed her eyes, the scene of the baby crying just after birth came to her mind.
Wen Yun worriedly said, "You just gave birth, how can you take on the long journey."
Tong Yaohui also said, "Let’s rest for a couple of days first. Your mom will stay here to take care of you, and I will buy a ticket back to Kyoto."
As the baby hadn’t been found, Tong Yaohui was also anxious. But he had to ensure not only the safety of the baby but also the safety of his daughter. Their family must be safe and complete, and none could be missing.
