Fu Chuan lowered his eyes and pursed his lips, falling silent for a few seconds before speaking, “Mom, I can understand the choices you made back then.”

Fu Jing was taken aback, lifting her gaze to look at Fu Chuan, stuttering, “What… what did you say?”

Fu Chuan softly said to Fu Jing, “Your circumstances back then were not easy, and you sent me away to protect me, so I don’t hate you. As long as we can be good from now on, that’s enough.”

Unable to resist, Fu Jing stepped forward and wrapped her arms around Fu Chuan.

Fu Chuan had never felt his mother’s embrace before, making Fu Jing’s arms feel unfamiliar. He blinked in confusion, gradually coming to his senses and smiling as he slowly returned the embrace.

Mother and son held each other, their emotions understood without the need for many words.

Gu Dai and Su Ting, witnessing their reunion, felt genuinely happy for them.

Suddenly, Fu Chuan’s stomach growled, snapping everyone back to the present. He covered his stomach, embarrassed, “I’m a bit hungry.”

Fu Jing responded, “You’ve been unconscious for several hours, it’s normal to be hungry now. Don’t be embarrassed, I’ll go and prepare some food for you.”

Su Ting stopped her, “No need to trouble yourself, I’ve already arranged it.”

He took out his phone and made a call, and soon a servant brought in some food.

Su Ting explained, “Fu Chuan just woke up from being poisoned, so he shouldn’t eat anything greasy. I’ve prepared some light meals.”

Fu Chuan nodded obediently, “Thank you, Brother Su Ting, I really like it.”

Fu Jing, looking at Su Ting and Gu Dai, tears forming in her eyes, was determined to repay their kindness whenever the opportunity arose.

While eating, Fu Chuan suddenly remembered something puzzling, “I was just drinking tea with a friend, how could I have been poisoned suddenly?”

Everyone hesitated upon hearing Fu Chuan’s question, unsure how to reveal the betrayal by a friend.

Sensing something was off from everyone’s expressions, Fu Chuan immediately guessed, “Did Yang Ming do something to me? Did he poison me? But why would he do that?”

Fu Chuan was full of doubts, urgently looking at Gu Dai for answers, “President Gu, please tell me the reason.”

Gu Dai, meeting Fu Chuan’s pleading gaze, sighed helplessly and said, “Your friend Yang Ming got involved in gambling and accrued a large debt. So, when Li Yuan approached him to keep an eye on you and to poison you, he agreed.”

Memories of Yang Ming protecting him in the orphanage flashed through Fu Chuan’s mind, and he instinctively wanted to deny it.

But Gu Dai was the one telling him, and he trusted that Gu Dai wouldn’t lie to him. Plus, Yang Ming’s behavior had been odd lately, and his looks were full of guilt. Fu Chuan now realized those looks were admissions of his remorse.

Fu Jing, seeing her son in tears, cried out with heartache, “Fu Chuan…”

Fu Chuan forced a smile, his face pale, “Mom, don’t worry, I’m okay. I just never thought that the friend who loved and protected me back then would do this to me.”

After a few seconds of silence, he asked softly, “Can I go see Yang Ming?”

Gu Dai looked at Fu Jing.

Fu Jing responded, “Once you’re feeling better, then you can see him.”

Fu Chuan nodded lightly, understanding from her words that they must have already captured Yang Ming. He spoke softly, “He was once very good to me, let’s not hurt him for now.”

Fu Jing’s expression froze, and she looked guilt-ridden, “Fu Chuan, I’m sorry, I couldn’t help myself and slapped him a few times earlier. They were just superficial injuries, not fatal!”

Fu Chuan murmured an acknowledgment, understanding why Fu Jing couldn’t resist striking the man who had poisoned her son fatally. Any mother who loves her child would struggle to hold back against the culprit.

Fu Chuan stated, “Don’t hurt Yang Ming for now, I have some things I want to ask him.”

Fu Jing nodded repeatedly, “Okay.”

After several days of rest, feeling his strength returning and almost fully recovered, Fu Chuan eagerly asked Fu Jing, “Mom, can I see Yang Ming now?”
