"Yes," answered Gao Congming.
Ling Yiran was in the hospital ward when she woke up, and Yi Jinli was by her side. "Why am I here?"
"You fainted. I brought you to the hospital to have a doctor check on you just in case. Fortunately, there's nothing serious," said Yi Jinli.
The memory of what had happened rushed into Ling Yiran's head. She instantly froze, and with a cry, she began to sob.
"Jin, what do we do? The child is gone... Gone..." She instantly threw her arms around him, sobbing and almost gasping for breath.
Yi Jinli put his arms around Ling Yiran and felt her body twitching violently with every sob. "What Secretary Wang said may not be true. If the child is really gone, why didn’t he tell us where they were buried? Why would he rather get detained by the police instead of telling us the child’s whereabouts?
That was what confused him. He had a gut feeling that the child was still alive.
However, if the child was still alive, what on earth was Secretary Wang up to by not telling them their whereabouts?
"It's... not true?" muttered Ling Yiran as she finally stopped crying.
"It can’t be true. I'll continue to investigate the whereabouts of the child," said Yi Jinli as he raised his hand to gently wipe Ling Yiran's tears. "You told me not to cry, but you’re the one crying instead."
Ling Yiran only felt weak due to the emotional ups and downs. It seemed to drain her of her strength.
"Jin, is our child still alive?"
"Yes."
"Okay," replied Yi Jinli. He would find their child, but at the same time, he would never let her disappear from his sight again.
When Yi Jinli and Ling Yiran returned to Yi Residence at night, the two children were still awake. They had been waiting for them.
Especially Yi Qianjin, who kept running to the residence’s gate from time to time no matter how Uncle Kwan persuaded her.
The two little ones would not go to sleep until their parents got back.
Watching the two children's sleeping faces, Ling Yiran's eyes could not help turning red again. How happy would they be if their other child was here too!
Somehow, the image of the little boy named Ci, who was in the amusement park during the day, popped up in her mind.
