Rebirth from the Ashes Chapter 554 - I Finally Found You

Chapter 554: I Finally Found You

Yun Jinping came on too fast and too sudden for the nearby He Xiang and few fans to react, let alone the production crew.
By the time the staff members could stop anyone from entering the set, Yun Jinping had already made it through to the other side.
Yun Jinping stumbled her way over before she kneeled beside Yu Yuanxi with tears running down her face. Her body trembled as she whimpered, too choked up for words.
Shen Xi froze, misreading that Yun Jinping believed the blood all over Yu Yuanxi was real. She jumped in to explain, “It’s okay, Mom. It’s fake. The blood is not real.”
On second thought, Shen Xi thought that was not the case as Mom was not unmindful to the world of acting to interrupt mid-scene.
Yu Yuanxi was caught off guard. He was heartbroken and flustered by the teary-eyed Yun Jinping who kept staring at his chest yet could not get a word out. “What’s wrong, Mrs. Shen?”
Without a word, Yun Jinping stared blankly at Yu Yuanxi’s chest while reaching out her shaking arm to touch it. Suddenly, she stopped and let out a raspy sob.
The people around followed her hand to Yu Yuanxi’s pecs. Apart from the blood, there was something of a dark shade on his chest. If their guess was right, it must be a mother’s mark.
From afar, it was hard to distinguish the color and shape of the birthmark.
Others might not be able to see it, but Shen Xi who was at close quarters could. The congenital mark was in a darker shade of red in contrast to the blood stain. It was the birthmark of a soaring bird.
It was like her mind exploded. Shen Xi widened her eyes in disbelief at Yu Yuanxi. Even her voice was trembling. “It’s you.”
Yu Yuanxi was most confused by Yun Jinping’s reaction and the meaning behind Shen Xi’s words. All he felt was jittery.
Shen Xi could not be sure, afraid that Mom and herself might be wrong. She grabbed the clothes within reach and held down Yu Yuanxi by the arms before wiping away the blood stain on his chest.
Feeling the flush in his cheeks, Yu Yuanxi was dumbstruck. He tried to seize Shen Xi but quickly realized he was pinned down. With concerns of hurting her if he applied force, Yu Yuanxi was undecided on what to do.
A birthmark.
Dark red in color.
It appeared like a bird taking flight.
There was no doubt about it.
Shen Xi turned to Yun Jinping. “Mom.”
Yun Jinping was caught in tears to even say a word as she studied the birthmark. Having ascertained her eyes were not deceiving her, she gave Yu Yuanxi a tight hug while letting out all her emotions in one word. “Zhifei.”
Yu Yuanxi stiffened, not knowing what to think and feel.
Nevertheless, he knew Shen Zhifei was Shen Xi’s older brother and Mr. and Mrs. Shen’s son who was kidnapped by human traffickers. They had been searching for him.
“I finally found you.” Yun Jinping’s voice was quaking with joy and excitement, bearing more than a decade long of hope and anticipation.
It was a mind-blowing moment for Yu Yuanxi. His eyes turned to Shen Xi and his ears picked on her words. She told him, “You’re Shen Zhifei.”
Was he Shen Zhifei?
Was he the son Mr. and Mrs. Shen had been searching for for over a decade?
What did he do to deserve their decade-long yearning and painful wait?
Many on set got the picture at last. This was a family reunion. They had no idea about the specific, but they did know that Yu Yuanxi was this beautiful lady’s son.
He Xiang was completely blown away. If Yu Yuanxi was Mrs. Shen’s son, that would make him Shen Xi’s brother.
F*ck!
Yu Yuanxi was Shen Xi’s older brother. Lil’ Chairman Shen’s older brother!
Ruan Sisi was quick-witted to pick up on the situation. Overflowed with empathy, she cried together with Yun Jinping before turning to Zhou Zhen. “That’s so nice. She found her son.”
Zhou Zhen was filled with mixed emotions, unable to put a finger on her feelings by the family finding each other. She might not know what others would do, but she knew that the circumstances would be different if she met her biological parents.
It was chaos on set as Shen Xi let out a worried cry, ensued with the curtains closed. Yun Jinping wailed until she passed out.
With no time to take care of the blood all over him, Yu Yuanxi carried Yun Jinping and rushed to the dressing room.
Shen Xi anxiously followed behind while shouting for a doctor. It seemed to slip her mind that she was a doctor herself. Having remembered that important fact when she reached the dressing room, she turned back and said, “No need for a doctor now.”
He Xiang and Ruan Sisi ran the fastest with the latter in the lead. The door slammed in her face before she could get in. Had it not been for He Xiang who pulled her back, her nose would have taken a clobber.
“What’s going on?” Ruan Sisi asked He Xiang. Zhou Zhen had informed her earlier that he was Yu Yuanxi’s manager.
“I’m not sure.” He Xiang would not have any idea either. Was he climbing up the career ladder? The first artist he was working with turned out to have quite an extraordinary background.
This was Lil’ Chairman Shen’s brother they were talking about. Was there a need to stress about resources after Yu Yuanxi’s debut? Nope!
He was a manager and a very responsible one too. Of course, he was going to consider issues from his artist’s standpoint.
Back in the dressing room.
Having regained consciousness, Yun Jinping stared at Yu Yuanxi without saying a word. While quietly meeting his eyes, she conveyed remorse, self-blame, guilt, and heartache. The tears flowing down her cheeks pulled at Yu Yuanxi’s heartstrings.
Yu Yuanxi was unable to hold down his bursting heart. There were no words.
Over the years, he had wondered what his birth parents were like and once asked himself why he strayed from them. Did they ditch him or did something happen?
“I’m sorry.” Yun Jinping’s voice was hoarse. With her trembling hands, she held his and stared him in the eye. “I’m sorry for what you went through.”
Yu Yuanxi looked back at her. The word “Mom” was a catch in his throat for a long time. His eyes were welled up and his mouth was open, yet no words escaped those lips.
What should he say? Call her Mom? He had never said this word, nor could he say it out loud.
He knew he should not resent them, or blame them, or anyone in that case. It was not that they did not want him or abandon him. Since fate played a joke on them, they had been in search of him tirelessly throughout the years.
Yu Yuanxi understood that they suffered more than him, having witnessed Yun Jinping turning teary at the casual mention of him.
