Jiang Lingzhu sat opposite Ding Nuo, looking at Ding Nuo who was respectful and reasonable, neither humble nor arrogant, he nodded secretly, - this result is the best...
"Auntie! Please drink tea!" Ding Nuo stood up respectfully and placed a cup of tea in front of Jiang Lingzhu.
"Your name is Ding Nuo, right?" Jiang Lingzhu asked with a smile.
"Yes! Auntie!" Ding Nuo replied respectfully.
"Can you tell Auntie why you are called 'Ding Nuo'?"
"Uh--, it's like this," although Ding Nuo was a little confused by Jiang Lingzhu's question, he still answered honestly, "because I grew up in an orphanage, and the dean didn't know my name. See
A necklace I carried with me had the character 'D' engraved on it, so I was named 'A Ding'. Later, when I came to De'an to apply for a job, my sister filled in the name 'Ding Nuo' for me."
"That's it, - is it this necklace?" Jiang Lingzhu took out the heart-shaped pendant necklace.
"yes!"
"Do you wear it all the time?"
"Yes! The director of the orphanage said that this is the only thing in my swaddling clothes."
"Have you ever discovered its secret?" Jiang Lingzhu asked, looking at Ding Nuo.
"What?" Ding Nuo was startled.
Jiang Lingzhu twisted the necklace and revealed the photo.
Ding Nuo was completely stunned. He had been wearing it for so many years, but he had never discovered that this pendant had a hidden mechanism. He always thought that such a thin pendant was one piece.
He took the necklace from Jiang Lingzhu and looked at it carefully, "This is -"
"The girl standing in the middle was your mother more than 20 years ago!" Jiang Lingzhu said softly.
"What?" Ding Nuo suddenly looked up at Jiang Lingzhu, with a confused expression, as if he didn't understand what Jiang Lingzhu said just now.
"I said, the girl standing in the middle is your mother more than 20 years ago! You heard me right!" Jiang Lingzhu gently repeated what he just said.
"What?" Ding Nuo looked at Jiang Lingzhu dumbfounded, completely unable to digest what Jiang Lingzhu said.
"This necklace is a gift I gave to your mother for her 20th birthday. It was custom-made by a famous teacher. It is the only one in the world. The photo in the pendant was glued on by me myself. - You and I
Mom is a best friend and a sister. Unfortunately, we were separated due to some accidents back then. I didn’t expect that today, I would be able to meet her flesh and blood. I’m really happy!”
Jiang Lingzhu spoke slowly, tears gradually filling his eyes.
"Mom?" Ding Nuo murmured to himself in disbelief, looking down at the girl standing in the middle of the photo.
The head in the photo is very small, but you can still see that the girl is very beautiful, but her eyebrows are slightly thicker than ordinary girls, her eyes are big, shining with stubbornness, and her black hair is only as long as her ears.
He looked somewhat boyish and capable, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, looking stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat...
This——,is his mother?
Ding Nuo seemed to be in a dream - for the first time in more than 20 years in this world, he had news about his relatives.
"Auntie -" Ding Nuo asked cautiously and tentatively: "Who is my mother? Where is my father? Who is my father? You must know, right?"
"A Ding! Do you like Yaoyao?" Jiang Lingzhu answered the question.
Ding Nuo stiffened.
He hesitated for a moment and then said carefully: "Auntie, I'm not good enough for Yaoyao!"
Jiang Lingzhu smiled, "Look! I asked a bit too much. If you don't like her, why would you give her a necklace that is so important to you?"
"Auntie!" Ding Nuo stared into Jiang Lingzhu's eyes and said solemnly: "I am not worthy of Yaoyao, she deserves better!"
