Chapter 562 Yan Jiangshan takes Xiaopeng back to the Yan family
Yan Jiangshan hung up the phone, looking a little nervous.
Yan Bei asked, "Dad, what's wrong? Who called?"
"Well, your brother said that your Aunt Liu died in the hospital."
Yan Bei was also stunned for a moment.
He couldn't understand why all these things happened.
"I'll go with you!" Yan Bei said.
He also knew that Yan Jiangshan was old and would definitely be physically exhausted from going through this.
It just so happened that he also wanted to go and take a look. After all, this matter was true, and he really did have a brother. It would not be good if he did not show up.
"Okay." Yan Jiangshan said tremblingly.
Yan Bei drove and took him directly to the hospital.
After more than 30 years, those memories that had been buried deep in my heart now came flooding back like a surging tide. Every little detail of my time with my first love, those innocent yet beautiful moments, kept flashing back in my mind.
Along the way, the city streets passed by like a blur of light and shadow, but his heart had already flown to the hospital. His feet felt like they weighed a thousand pounds, yet he ran desperately, each step filled with endless anxiety and regret.
Finally arriving at the hospital, Yan Jiangshan rushed into the ward. Seeing his first love lying quietly on the bed, her face as pale as paper, like a withered flower, at that moment, his heart felt like it was being tugged by an invisible hand, the pain unbearable.
He slowly walked to the bedside, reaching out a trembling hand and gently touching her already cold face. Uncontrollably, tears welled up in his eyes, blurring his vision. For so many years, he had thought time would heal everything, but now he realized that the feeling had never faded, buried deep in the softest part of his heart.
The son standing beside him had eyes and brows very similar to his first love, and his eyes were full of sadness and helplessness.
Yan Jiangshan looked at his son with mixed feelings. This child, whom he had never met, was the continuation of his relationship with his first love, but he also witnessed the years they had missed.
In this hospital ward, Yan Jiangshan was consumed by self-blame and grief. He knew this regret would forever haunt him for the rest of his life. He tightly grasped his first love's gradually cooling hand, as if trying to grasp a last shred of warmth from her, to hold onto those times that could never return.
After a long pause, he looked up at the ceiling, letting the tears flow. He silently vowed to take good care of his son for the rest of his life, wanting to make up for the love he had lost for his first love. Sadness permeated the ward, but at that moment, Yan Jiangshan made a decision that would determine his future: starting over with this love and regret.
He looked at Xiaopeng and said, "Let me take care of your mother's aftermath!"
"Yeah!" Xiaopeng nodded.
Yan Bei, who was standing next to him, watched what had just happened to Yan Jiangshan. He understood how deeply in love his father was with his first love.
But if my father's first love hadn't left, he wouldn't exist.
Yan Jiangshan looked up at Xiaopeng and asked, "Can you take me to see where you live?"
"Okay." Xiaopeng agreed.
……
Yan Bei accompanied them to the place where Liu Suyun used to live.
In an old neighborhood.
The room was a bit messy, so Yan Jiangshan took a deep breath and began to tidy it up. He gently picked up a faded photo on the table. It was a photo of them when they were young. The two of them in the photo were smiling brightly, their eyes full of longing for the future.
His hands trembled slightly as his fingertips stroked her face in the photo, as if he could touch the warmth of the past through the thin paper.
Yan Jiangshan began carefully packing up her belongings. Hanging in the closet were a few faded, worn-out clothes. He gently stroked them, imagining her wearing them. In the drawer lay some letters. He opened one, and the familiar handwriting caught his eye. It was a letter she had once written to him, words filled with longing and love. Tears welled up in his eyes as he read. It turned out that for so many years, she had kept this feeling hidden deep within her heart.
The process of handling the funeral was not easy. Fortunately, Yan Bei and Xiao Peng were by his side. They traveled to many places, handled various procedures, and personally handled every step.
He knew this was the only thing he could do for her. While tidying up his study, he found a diary that began with the days since they'd separated, page after page filled with her loneliness, longing, and reflections on life. Yan Jiangshan sat in a chair, slowly flipping through the pages, as if he were walking into her life over the past thirty years.
At the funeral the next day, there was a drizzle in the sky, as if God was also grieving for her.
Yan Jiangshan stood before the grave, watching the coffin slowly lower into the ground, his heart filled with grief beyond words. He laid a bouquet of flowers and whispered, "Rest in peace here. I remember all the unspoken words and unfinished journeys. And I will take good care of the son you left behind."
……
After handling Liu Suyun's funeral.
Yan Jiangshan looked at Xiaopeng and said, "Xiaopeng, come live with me! Your mother is gone, and I'm worried about you being alone."
"Okay." Xiaopeng agreed. Then he glanced at Yan Bei. "I wonder if my brother welcomes me."
Yan Bei forced a smile, "You're welcome anytime."
"Then I'll trouble you to take good care of me, brother."
"..."
Xiaopeng followed Yan Jiangshan and Yan Bei back to the Yan family villa.
Yan Jiangshan looked at Yan Bei and opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Then he said, "I have taken Xiaopeng back to the Yan family. He is my son, just like you. Xiaopeng has suffered a lot outside these years, and I want him to work in our company first. Xiaobei, you have been in the company for so long, so please take good care of him in the future."
Yan Bei was silent for a moment, digesting this sudden news. He looked at his father, and although his heart was filled with mixed emotions, he nodded. "Dad, I understand. Since he's my brother, I will definitely take good care of him and help him familiarize himself with the company's affairs."
Yan Jiangshan smiled with satisfaction. "Xiaobei, I'm glad you think this way. Xiaopeng is very strong-willed and smart, but he lacks some experience working in a large company. Please help him with this and help him adapt to the company environment as quickly as possible."
Yan Bei responded seriously, "Dad, don't worry. I will do my best to integrate Xiaopeng into the company. After all, we are all family, and I won't let him suffer any injustice."
Yan Jiangshan stood up and patted Yan Bei on the shoulder: "With your words, Dad is relieved. From now on, you two brothers must support each other and make our Yan family's business better."
Yan Bei felt the warmth of his father's hand and the weight of his expectations, and he secretly made up his mind. Although this sudden appearance of his brother caught him off guard, he was willing to try to accept him. After all, blood is thicker than water; they are all members of the Yan family.
"Dad, I'll arrange for Xiaopeng to join the company right away and have him report for work tomorrow." Yan Bei said.
Yan Jiangshan nodded, his eyes full of expectations for the future.
