Chapter 1234: The Welcoming Party（2）

In the testing center, Ling Tianya and Cheng Chen had just finished getting their blood samples drawn.

Even now, Ling Tianya was still confused. Although Cheng Chen had thoroughly explained everything to her on their way here, she still felt as if she was dreaming.

This entire thing was simply way too bizarre. She would never have thought that Cheng Chen was her biological father and Lina was her biological mother.

When he saw that Ling Tianya was still in a disbelieving daze, Cheng Chen walked forward and warmly stroked his hand over her hair, looking at her with a pampering gaze.

“When you were a baby, it was Huang Ying who bought you and then gave you to Yu Meizi. Then, Yu Meizi brought you to the Ling residence. I have already looked into everything. I didn’t bring you here to do a paternity test because I doubt that you are my daughter. Lina just needs to do something with this report tomorrow. When tomorrow comes, all of the people who have been scheming and lying will be punished.”

Ling Tianya looked at Cheng Chen, dumbfounded. This man, who had always allowed her to speak casually to him, who she had treated as a friend she could talk to about anything, was actually her father.

She remembered when she had teased Cheng Chen, telling him to become the tiny rice ball’s god-grandfather. She would never have guessed that Cheng Chen was actually the tiny rice ball’s biological grandfather.

Cheng Chen was probably talking about Xu Cheng, Eric, and their little cabal when he mentioned the people who had been scheming. Now, all of Ling Tianya’s questions had been answered. She understood why Xu Cheng suddenly owned so many luxury goods and why she was so close to Eric.

It seemed that Eric was attempting to use Xu Cheng as a substitute for Lina’s daughter. After Xu Cheng’s grandmother was admitted into the hospital, she had reached out and pulled at Ling Tianya’s hair, claiming that something was stuck in it. It turned out that she had used Ling Tianya’s hair to do a maternity test with Lina.

After that, the DNA test results had “proved” that Xu Cheng was Lina’s daughter. However, that hair really belonged to Ling Tianya, which meant that she was actually the one who was Lina’s daughter.

When Cheng Chen saw that Ling Tianya wasn’t saying anything, he grabbed her shoulders in both hands and stood in front of her. “What are you thinking? Are you shocked? Lina told me to tell you everything first. She already knows that you are her daughter, and she wants to immediately come to see you. However, she can’t do that at the moment. By tomorrow, everything will be okay. Tianya, you are not a parentless child who isn’t loved. From today on, you are our daughter. No one in this world will take advantage of you ever again.”

Ling Tianya’s eyes immediately reddened when she heard Cheng Chen’s words. Ever since Yu Meizi told her that she wasn’t really a child of the Ling family and that she didn’t have any blood ties to Ling Tao, she had entirely lost hope of having a real, loving family. She didn’t dare imagine how Ling Tao would treat her when he woke up and discovered that she wasn’t actually his daughter.

In the past, Ling Tianya had lived in constant fear. However, she kept it carefully concealed and pretended to be strong.

At this moment, Cheng Chen’s words touched the most vulnerable part of Ling Tianya’s heart. Tears dripped down her face.

Ling Tianya’s tears made Cheng Chen’s heartache. He had watched her entire journey. He knew what she cared about and what she had experienced. In the past, he had only been her friend, and he had no choice but to sit by and watch.

Now, he was her father. He would no longer allow his daughter to cry.

Cheng Chen pulled Ling Tianya into her arms and quietly soothed her.

When Ruan Zeyan walked in, he immediately saw Cheng Chen holding Ling Tianya, who was crying in a quiet voice. The man looked at them with a dangerous gaze. His fury made the large room feel small.
