Back then, his mother gave him some inexplicable photos, all of which were of Yan Rulan having contact with other men.
He thought that Yan Rulan was pregnant because she was carrying someone else's child.
She betrayed him.
So, in a fit of anger, he left the country.
Who would have thought that this was the method his mother used to force him and Yan Rulan to separate?
And that child...
Although Yan Rulan had explained that the child was his, Long Yu still had complicated feelings about the child.
It's because I feel resentful and guilty at the same time.
"If you miss her, take her abroad."
Long Yu hesitated for a moment, then relaxed.
If that child is in the country, he can treat it as if he doesn't exist.
Now their family of four is very happy.
However, after all, it is his daughter, and it does not seem good to let the child stay alone in the country.
"No!" When Yan Rulan heard that she wanted to pick up the child, she refused without thinking.
Her straightforwardness made Long Yu feel baffled.
"Don't you want a child? Wouldn't it be possible to reunite the family by taking her abroad?"
Long Yu looked at Yan Rulan doubtfully.
However, he soon remembered that the company's recent affairs had made him anxious.
There was a cooperation in the country and he needed to go back to discuss it in person.
If the negotiation can be successful this time, maybe the Long family can regain a foothold in City C.
Speaking of which, this is a good opportunity to return home to visit relatives.
"I miss my child," Yan Rulan said, seeing Long Yu's serious face and wondering why she felt like shooting herself in the foot, "but the child grew up in the country and lived with my mother."
"You should know that old people dote on their children. I don't know how well the children are taught by her."
"After all, I am always by her side. If I asked to take the child away, the first person who would not agree would be my mother."
Yan Rulan chose to discredit her own mother without hesitation.
Long Yu thought about it and remembered that Yan Rulan's parents didn't seem to want to see him back then.
The couple were from the countryside, had very eccentric temperaments, but were also very aloof.
Since the child is brought up by his mother-in-law, it is better to stay with her and fulfill his filial piety.
The worst thing is to give them more money when they go back to visit their relatives.
"My mother-in-law has worked hard taking care of the children these years. Have you ever thought about taking her abroad to live with us?"
Long Yu asked tentatively.
Yan Rulan shook her head without thinking: "No, my mother is old-fashioned and she definitely doesn't want to go abroad."
"She is used to living in the countryside, how could she be willing to go abroad and live with us?"
Seeing Yan Rulan's strong objection, Long Yu felt relieved.
Of course he didn't want to take his mother-in-law over.
After all, Yan Rulan has been unwilling to live with his parents because of what happened back then.
If his mother-in-law is brought over, his parents will not start a fuss if they find out?
"Okay, okay, we really should be considerate of the elderly. People of their generation have a strong sense of belonging to the country and nation. We shouldn't force our mother-in-law."
The two had a good discussion the day before, and Long Yu didn't tell Yan Rulan that he could return to China.
But the next day, his company's situation took a turn for the worse.
It has reached the point where we have to go to China to discuss cooperation, and it is very likely that foreign companies will go bankrupt this time.
He can only take some capital and return to China as soon as possible, and maybe he can make a comeback!
Faced with the sudden change, Yan Rulan was completely shocked.
"How could this happen?" At night, when Yan Rulan heard her husband announcing the decision, she fell to the ground.
