Chapter 627: The Sunlight Is Already on Its Way

"What are you looking at?" Yun Qingzheng did not consider himself a meddlesome person, but today, he could not help but ask aloud.

An Yinan smiled, that clear and faint laughter drifting with the wind into the ears of many.

"I am looking at when the fog will finally disperse, and when the sunlight will grace this island."

"When... will the darkness leave..."

"When?" Yun Qingzheng's heart gave a jolt, and he asked involuntarily.

An Yinan turned her head, leaning against the side of the boat, "Soon, the sunlight is already on its way."

The sunlight is already on its way.

It will eventually shine upon the earth, driving away the haze and taking the darkness with it.

Yun Qingzheng did not speak again, his whole person looking toward the distance; was it finally coming?

It was absurd, yet he was full of belief in her.

He was willing to believe in anyone who would overthrow the Xie Family, and even when she was in trouble and needed help, he would reach out his hand without hesitation.

"Madam, we have arrived," Chen Xun said softly.

He had been by her side the whole time, though apart from those few in the Li Family, no one else knew their true relationship.

But he had always been behind her.

"Goodbye," An Yinan nodded to Yun Qingzheng and led her people off the boat.

With Xiao Guo's prior notification, these people were not waiting at the pier, but at the house of Guo Ge and the others.

Sister-in-law said that meeting at a hotel always felt a bit too cold and detached.

"Grandmother." An Yinan looked at the silver-haired old woman; she rushed forward and hugged her, wanting to hold her tight, yet she dared not use too much force.

"Oh, my Nan Nan, you've returned." Grandmother patted her back, her face full of love, though there were tears at the corners of her eyes; but seeing her safe was enough.

"Don't cry, it's good that you're back, it's good that you're back, it's a happy occasion," Grandmother repeated, sentence by sentence.

An Yinan wiped the corners of her eyes in embarrassment, then looked up at everyone.

"Big Aunt, Second Aunt."

Liu Xicai and Fang Hong looked at her, sizing her up from head to toe, the worry they had been holding onto finally set aside.

Liu Xicai pointed to a corner where two men were sitting; they would glance over every now and then, then continue playing chess as if nothing were the matter, appearing completely indifferent.

"Go over there, they're being awkward," Big Aunt said with a chuckle.

An Yinan and Chen Xun walked to the side of the two men and bowed slightly, "Big Uncle, Second Uncle, thank you."

During the time she was away, everything at home had been supported by her uncles.

They were like fathers, standing behind her, giving her support and making her fearless.

A father's love is like a mountain.

When she didn't have children, she didn't understand this feeling, but now she seemed to grasp it.

Even if these two people who provided a father's love were her uncles, it was indeed her uncles who had always been her support.

"You child, what are you doing?" Yun Fei stood up directly and helped An Yinan up.

Looking at the young woman before him, she had gone from being a teenager to someone's wife and someone's mother.

Yet she remained a child in their eyes.

No matter how old a child is, in their eyes, it never changes.

An Yinan looked at her two uncles, "Before I had children, I couldn't comprehend the care and protection of my two uncles."

"Now that I have Dabao and Xiaobao, I can finally understand that feeling."

She spoke very sincerely, her eyes filled with a serious expression.

It wasn't because everyone had taken care of the two children, but because of herself.

Yun Fei ruffled her hair; this was something Yun Fei had always wanted to do but had never done.

Looking at the young woman before him, he hadn't appeared during her most difficult times, but...

This child had chosen her own path, surpassing so many others; whether for the Yun Family or for Huaxia, she had done too much.

"Nan Nan, you have always been our child, always."

Yun Fei smiled, his face full of gratification; if one were to have a daughter, she should be like An Yinan.

Yun Ge did not speak, but stepped forward and patted her shoulder, "Still so thin, eat well; the country needs you."

Yes!

The country needs you.

Who could have imagined it? At the highest-level secret meeting, known to no more than a handful of people, the content of that meeting was a death order issued by the old gentleman: protect An Yinan with all your might.

One An Yinan was already worth more than countless others.

"Alright, you two, stop going on and on; let Nan Nan go see the children." Big Aunt saw Nan Nan's eyes turning red and quickly stopped them, taking the opportunity to glare at Yun Fei.

Surrounded by family, she had no need to hide anything.

In the past, for the sake of Yun Fei's face, she had often wronged herself and the children, but now she had seen through it; at her age, wasn't it nice to just follow her heart?

Ever since she went to Yangcheng and Shanghai, even Beijing could no longer trap her; if not for the country's orders that she must return when summoned, she would have long wanted to explore the scenery of Huaxia.

"The children are in that room, go take a look." Liu Xicai looked at the child before her; she seemed to have never changed, neither in appearance nor in her original heart.

"Thank you, Big Aunt."

An Yinan curled her lips, her heart in a flutter; the children were so small when she left, would they still recognize her now?

"Nan Nan, what are you doing out there? Come in quickly!" Sun Chunhua saw Nan Nan hesitating and walked out with a smile to pull her in.

She was busy, and Nan Nan was busy too; it had been several years since she and her daughter-in-law had last met.

Although the letters and phone calls had never stopped, how could that compare to the joy of seeing each other in person?

She looked her up and down, then took her hand, "You, after giving birth, why haven't you gained any weight? Is it because Chen Xun hasn't been taking good care of you?"

As she spoke, Sun Chunhua glared at Chen Xun; seeing her like that, one really couldn't tell whose mother she actually was.

"Mom, Xunge takes very good care of me; it's just my constitution, I don't gain weight."

An Yinan hurriedly pulled Chen Xun behind her; this was an unconscious action on her part, which caused a smug, triumphant smile to spread across Chen Xun's face.

Sun Chunhua was stunned for a moment, then helplessly shook her head.

Fine, his wife is protecting him, what could she say?

"Dabao, Xiaobao." As soon as she entered the room, her eyes were drawn to the two nursing babies.

One baby was in Li Xiue's arms, and one baby was in Zhao Qiuhua's arms.

Just as the two babies were playing happily, they seemed to hear a familiar voice, and they turned their heads in unison to look at the person at the doorway.

"Ah ah ah~"

"Ah~"

"Ah!"

"Ah ah ah~"

No one could understand what the two infants were saying, but the two nursing babies reached out their arms in the same direction, looking like they wanted to be held.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

The two "ah" sounds seemed to be reminding the dazed An Yinan, telling her not to just stand there, but to come and hold them quickly.
