Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Lu Tingting could only surrender her son to these people reluctantly. Even if she fought them, it would only make her son's life more miserable. Worst, if she stayed headstrong and went against them all at the cost of her life, Song Yu Han's safety might also be put into danger.

And that was something that Lu Tingting could not do as his mother.

She already had nothing left but her life. Would she even surrender her son's life just because she couldn't put down her pride and selfishness? She would rather become a bad mother to her son's eyes than see Cao Huiling hiring other people to kill off her son.

At the very least, now that the Old Patriarch had learned of her son's identity and had recognized him as his grandson, he would protect Song Yu Han and give him the lifestyle that he deserved.

The Old Patriarch was a ruthless man who could cut down all of his enemies with just a word from him. However, he still valued his blood and flesh. Otherwise, why would the Song family extend to several branches? How could so many illegitimate children be able to stand up straight despite their lowly identities? 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m

Old Patriarch Song, himself, was an illegitimate child. Hence, he could understand what it meant to be abandoned and how the children of his low birth were forced to bow their heads and be in constant danger.

He didn't want his blood and flesh to experience what he had suffered. Thus, he decided to accept as many children his sons and grandsons had outside of their marriage so long as no one tried to kill each other in front of him. As for those who secretly did it behind his back and under the table, Old Patriarch Song only let their fates decide it.

Lu Tingting had one condition after surrendering her son to the Song family, and it was to have Song Yu Han be raised directly under tutelage of the Old Patriarch.

Song Ruan had no qualms about that as he didn't want to raise the child of the woman who still held a bit of his heart. Besides, looking at this son's face who resembled his mother so much, he didn't want to look at him even for a bit!

Cao Huiling initially wanted to interject and tell them that she would raise Song Yu Han herself since the Old Patriarch was already too old to take care of a child, however, Lu Tingting went to meet the Old Patriarch and strike the condition with him first. Hence, she was unable to change their mind and could only give up.

Naturally, her plan was not really to raise her son. It was to make Lu Tingting die out of anger and fear! 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚

Lu Tingting was the most desirable woman in the country before the Lu family went down. She had suitors that could fill the Yangtze River but no man could ever move her but Song Ruan, the man whom Cao Huiling had fancied.

Cao Huiling purposely befriended and stood beside Lu Tingting in order to get closer to Song Ruan. When the Lu Family suffered from bankruptcy, it was all due to her family's actions seeing how the Lu family had become a wall they couldn't cross to get to the Song family. Fortunately, Lu Tingting and the Lu Family ended up being driven to a corner with no path to escape like fish trapped in a net.

But the joy that Cao Huiling felt after getting Song Ruan and ruining the Lu family was short-lived. Lu Tingting, this slut, actually gave birth to her husband's son and even escaped the purging of the Lu Family!

And just when the last stroke of the scythe was slashing through her neck, Lu Tingting found a pillar to hold and it was actually Old Patriarch Song, who agreed to take her son under him.

Cao Huiling's guts were as green as the grass on the lawn! She couldn't wait to have Lu Tingting's neck in her hands!

Old Patriarch Song previously didn't have any time nor intentions to raise anyone beside him. However, since he had already given his words and because the young boy who was both tenacious and strong-headed was too similar to him when he was younger, Old Patriarch Song finally agreed.

Maybe, he can turn this young man into a great man like him too.

Song Yu Han didn't know all about these events and was wailing inside the room he was locked in. For the few days that passed, he was dazed and didn't speak to anyone. The doctors who were hired to look after his health or just there to look after him were all stunned by this sudden change. He was so energetic and vigorous even when he had just woken up after his surgery. Where did that bull-like child go?

The nurses who watched the young boy go from a miracle child to a precious child who seemed to have lost his soul Their hearts were stirred by the young boy especially after seeing the way he had bawled and cried for his mother.

The story of the tragic separation of the young boy and his mother spread out in the hospital like fire and a lot of elderly people started to take turns in looking after the young boy. They would go and camp out of his hospital room and sigh in sympathy and call him a pitiful and filial child. A lot of people also placed presents and foods in front of his door.

These things weren't touched, but no one cared if the young boy touched it or not. They just wanted to express their desire to give their hearts to him.

Song Yu Han also didn't come out of his room. A month has passed and snow has fallen on the ground. Since it was the start of winter, the weather decreased a lot and people wore warmer clothes.

In just a month's time, Song Yu Han's body became thin. During that time, Song Yu Han never saw his mother nor those people who claimed to be his relatives. Even the old man who called himself his grandfather didn't show his face.

Song Yu Han was left alone in that room with the daily observation from the nurses and doctors as well as the guard who brought him food. But aside from that, the four walls of his room, the window that displayed the front of the hospital, and the sky outside were all his company in this lonely past month.

He had waited. He waited for his mother to come and get him.

But no matter how long he waited, his mother didn't come.

He hoped for her to at least linger outside the hospital.

However, even though he stayed up all night looking out of the window to see just a glimpse of his mother, she never appeared.

Song Yu Han was afraid of his mother disappearing. She was the only person in this world he would consider his family. But what he was most afraid of was her face and figure in his memory vanishing.

And so, he decided to stop being a gloomy child and changed.

He started to become the lively child like before. He smiled and talked to other people as if nothing happened. He acted as if he was alright and no longer hurting. He didn't even utter a word about looking for his mother and wanting to get out of that place.

However, behind these, Song Yu Han's heart never wanted to smile, didn't want to talk, and always chased after the shadow and image of his mother that was slowly blurring.

Finally, as he had expected, the old man who told him that he was his grandfather came to see him again. Almost a month after he changed his personality from being gloomy to a tenacious young boy, his grandfather told him about bringing back to his home and making him go to school to get an education.

Song Yu Han never uttered a word of rejection or thought of offending the old man. He just wanted to do good and paint himself better in his grandfather's eyes.

And once he had achieved something and convinced the old man that he was an outstanding young boy, he would look for his mother.

Song Yu Han never gave up looking for his mother. He would never give her up even if the world started to crack and disappear.

It was probably because she was his son that the two of them had the same personality.

Many years passed, and every single time, Song Yu Han topped the ranks and achieved a lot of awards and achievements that no children in the Song family could get. He became a dark horse that everyone used to belittle because of his identity but also couldn't underestimate due to him being raised by Old Patriarch Song.

He became a young man who had gotten what his mother wanted. He was a son every parent should be proud of. He was now in everyone's envy and admiration.

Unfortunately, when he finally won a bet with the Old Patriarch and went to see his mother whom he had found where she lived all these years so he could let her see what kind of person he had grown up to be….

It was too late.

Because the moment he entered the house and saw his mother…

She had already departed from the world with a white quilt around her neck.
