Even the unyielding Shen Yao could not help but tear up after reading this letter.

“Until Ji Ting’an accidentally caught a glimpse of your face in Dingyuan County.” Shen Yao carefully folded the letter and said softly, “Zhaozhao, Princess Kang Le has never given up on finding her child all these years.”

“Official Ji secretly drew a painting of you and gave it to Princess Kang Le. I heard that Princess Kang Le fell sick that day…” Shen Yao sighed softly. “Zhaozhao, no matter what you think, 1 will always be with you.”

“Okay.” Ji Zhao nodded obediently.

In the middle of February, Princess Kang Le’s condition gradually recovered.

In the Grand Princess Imperial’s residence.

“Kang Le?” Seeing her in a daze, the Grand Princess Imperial’s heart ached. “Are you alright?”

“No.” Kang Le smiled. “I received a letter from Ting’an a few days ago…”

“It’s not like you haven’t looked for her all these years.” The Grand Princess Imperial understood the knot in her heart at a glance. She patted her hand gently and comforted her gently. “Now that you’re about to get what you want, you should be happy.”

Princess Kang Le teared up sadly. “Mother… she should have… she should have lived a luxurious life. She should have been the apple of my eye, but she suffered so much. I… I don’t have the face to face her! If I could find her earlier, perhaps we could have reunited earlier! I was too stupid to trust that b*tch, Madam Hao!”

Princess Kang Le closed her eyes in pain as tears streamed down her face. “It’s all my fault!”

“Silly child, how can this be your fault?” The Grand Princess Imperial looked at her sad expression and felt as if her heart was being squeezed. She was so sad that she could not breathe. “You can only blame the heavens for playing tricks on you. You can only blame Madam Hao for being too good at pretending!”

“But Kang Le, everything will be fine,” the Grand Princess Imperial comforted gently. “1 heard that the family of that child’s husband is extremely kind. Her husband won first place in the provincial imperial examination in Yunchuan Prefecture City. His future will definitely be limitless!”

“Mother, even if my daughter marries into a noble family, they are not worthy of her!” Princess Kang Le felt even more upset when she mentioned this. “But now… she married such an ordinary person.”

At that moment, Shen Yao, who was massaging Ji Zhao’s legs in the carriage, could not help but sneeze.

“Did you catch a cold?” Ji Zhao hurriedly put down the novel in her hand and asked with concern.

“No.” Shen Yao smiled and shook his head. “Zhaozhao, does your calf still hurt?”

“It doesn’t hurt anymore!” Ji Zhao nodded with a smile. Her sly and lively eyes gently moved twice. Then, she suddenly leaned close to Shen Yao’s ear and asked softly, “Husband, you’re so considerate to me. I think I should give you a reward!”

“Reward?” Shen Yao raised his eyebrows and looked at her expectantly. “What kind of reward?”

“Close your eyes!”

“Okay.”

Shen Yao nodded obediently and immediately closed his eyes.

Ji Zhao’s heart skipped a beat. She stretched out an index finger and gently placed it on his lips. Following the curve of his lips, it moved bit by bit and landed on his sexy Adam’s apple. She gently tapped it twice.

“Zhaozhao…” Shen Yao opened his eyes. His deep eyes were filled with affection and indescribable desire. “Stop fooling around.”

At this moment, Ji Zhao could hear the restraint and desire in his voice.

“Actually, 1 have another way to help you…” Ji Zhao said with a red face. Then, she buried her head in his chest and was so shy that she did not dare to speak again.

That night, Ji Zhao, whose arm was sore, regretted it very much.

She shouldn’t have said that in a moment of carelessness. In the end, she almost exhausted her hands.

February 21st, the Grand Princess Imperial’s residence.

Ji Zhao, who was waiting in the reception hall, was a little nervous. She looked down at her bulging abdomen and could not help but laugh at herself.

Since she was already here, she actually felt a sense of homesickness.

“I thought 1 wouldn’t be able to find you in my lifetime…” Princess Kang Le lost her composure the moment she saw Ji Zhao.

She believed without a doubt that the delicate woman in front of her was her daughter.

“Greetings, Princess.” Ji Zhao curtsied obediently. Although her emotions fluctuated greatly when she first saw Princess Kang Le, she still curtsied obediently.

“Get up, get up!” Princess Kang Le hurriedly helped her up. “You’re pregnant now, so you have to be more careful.”

Ji Zhao smiled faintly.

Princess Kang Le also smiled at her, but she cried again as she smiled.

Looking at her smiling and crying expression, Ji Zhao felt a little anxious.

Although they had yet to acknowledge each other as relatives, it was probably because blood was thicker than water that when she saw Princess Kang Le feel sad, Ji Zhao’s heart also felt sad.

This was probably a mother-daughter bond, right?

“I made salted egg yolk pastry and double skin milk. Do you want to try it?” Ji Zhao asked with a smile when Princess Kang Le’s emotions gradually calmed down.

Ji Zhao had always believed that delicacies could comfort the heart.

“The double-skinned milk with red beans tastes good. When the peaches ripen in a few days, I’ll make you other delicacies.” Ji Zhao smiled faintly. “I don’t know much about you, but I heard that you prefer sweet food?”

“You… How did you know?” Princess Kang Le was surprised, but more than that, she was touched.

“As long as you have the heart, you will naturally find out.”

Princess Kang Le sighed. “I’ve always loved sweet food before I got married, but your grandmother didn’t allow me to eat too much. Later, 1 married into the Earl of Yong’an’s residence and indulged myself. But after 1 lost you, 1 gradually stopped liking sweet food.”

No matter how much sweet food they comsumed, it would not help those who were bitter in their hearts.

“Princess.” Ji Zhao thought for a moment and said what was on her mind. “How can you be so sure that I’m your daughter just by meeting me once?”

Kang Le was a little puzzled. “You…”

“There are many similar-looking people in this world. Before I’m completely confident, 1 don’t dare to rashly recognize this identity.” Ji Zhao looked at her. Her gaze was magnanimous, and her tone was calm. “Princess, you should have heard of this saying. Sometimes, the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.”

“Zhaozhao,” Princess Kang Le suddenly curled her lips and said with a gentle smile, “Can 1 call you that?”

“Yes.” Ji Zhao nodded slightly.

“Back then, when that child, Ting’an, sent your portrait to me, I was extremely happy because the person in the portrait was exactly the same as my youth! Of course, I was also worried that it would be for nothing in the end, so I sent people to secretly inquire about all the news related to you. Gradually, 1 became more and more certain that you were my daughter. Until today, I saw you.”

“Have you heard of fate?” Princess Kang Le held her hand affectionately as she smiled tenderly, “The moment I saw you, I knew that I had finally found my daughter!”
