Daily Intelligence System: Financial Independence-Chapter 299 - 159: Family Reunion, Zhang Chao’s Comeback!

Chapter 299: Chapter 159: Family Reunion, Zhang Chao’s Comeback!

Zhang Chao’s heart, as hard as stone, slowly softened, and his eyes gradually reddened with silent tears flowing.

The hands that were somewhat awkwardly held behind his back also gradually placed themselves on the woman’s shoulders.

"Brother, welcome home!"

"Dad, Mom, and I have been waiting for over twenty years, and finally, we have you back home!"

Wang Fei watched as his mother and his long-lost older brother cried and held each other tightly.

He was also moved, and his eyes turned slightly red.

Wang Minglong appeared to be calm, with an expression as still as water on his face.

But the joy in his heart was no less than that of his wife, Kang Huijun.

After searching for over twenty years, they had finally found their son.

As a father, how could he not be happy?

Zhang Chao was his first child, his eldest son, so to speak.

Parents always have a special affection for their first child, and Wang Minglong was no exception.

Even though he already had both a son and a daughter, with many children, he still offered a handsome reward for any clue about his eldest son.

This showed how much he valued Zhang Chao.

"Son, you’ve suffered all these years. It’s your parents who let you down."

"It was our carelessness that made us lose you. We’re sorry, we’re sorry."

"Son, can you forgive us? We’re sorry, we’re sorry..."

Kang Huijun tightly hugged Zhang Chao, as if afraid that letting go might mean losing him again.

Feeling his mother’s warm embrace, Zhang Chao’s heart, long grown cold by his adoptive parents, slowly regained warmth.

"No, it’s fine, I’ve been doing well, really well all these years..."

As soon as Zhang Chao spoke, as if recalling the grievances he suffered at his adoptive parents’ home over the years,

he uttered words that betrayed his true feelings and suddenly broke down into uncontrollable sobbing!

He understood.

He understood why his adoptive parents treated him so differently from his younger brother!

It turned out that he really was not their biological child!

Past events played back in his mind like a slideshow.

Since he could remember, his adoptive parents were always strict and harsh in his eyes.

For the slightest mistake, they would both punish him harshly!

When playing with his brother, if the brother cried, his parents would start hitting without distinguishing right from wrong.

From childhood to adulthood, Zhang Chao couldn’t even remember how many times he had been beaten.

He had not felt the warmth of home and his parents’ care for a very, very long time.

Now, being held in his biological mother’s arms,

that heart-to-heart connection made Zhang Chao’s heart tremble with emotion.

All the grievances he had silently endured over the years turned into cries and tears.

"..."

Jiang Tao watched the mother and son cry out their sorrows and felt deeply moved.

He suddenly realized that helping Zhang Chao reunite with his biological parents was more meaningful than the one million yuan reward.

Jiang Tao glanced at the group in the room and suddenly felt somewhat redundant staying there.

The family was having an emotional reunion after twenty years, their emotions surging.

As an outsider staying there, he indeed felt a bit out of place.

While the others were distracted, Jiang Tao quietly left the office, turned toward the elevator, and took it downstairs.

The task of helping Zhang Chao recognize his birth parents was successfully and perfectly completed.

Next, he only needed to wait for Wang Minglong to contact him to claim the reward money.

He believed that with Wang Minglong’s wealth and status, he wouldn’t tarnish his reputation over such a small amount of money.

Moreover, if handled well, this event could serve as an excellent promotion for Wang Minglong’s company.

The benefits he might reap could far exceed the one million yuan reward he was paying!

After getting downstairs, Jiang Tao walked briskly back to the parking area.

Once in the car, he first sent a message to Zhang Chao via WeChat, letting him know that he had left and that he should take his time reminiscing with his family.

After sending the message, Jiang Tao then started the car and drove away.
