Son Meets Biological Mother Again After Being Missing For 30 Years Since He Was Only 3YO

Because if there was a fitting sobfest to end off this mundane hell of a week…

It’s a tearful reunion between long-lost family members.

The Fabled Year Of 2019

Our story begins all the way back in 1989 when dragons still ruled the sky and furries were considered “exotic”:

Our fabled protagonist, Li Jian, had gone missing from his home in Changzhi in Shanxi province.

According to The Beijing News, his family last saw riding his tricycle alone outside their home.

They wouldn’t see him again for a while.

Thereafter, Li, after being found at a police station, would be taken home by his adoptive father and will go on to live his life not as a Li…

But a Chen.

But Even Against All Odds, The Li Family Refused To Give Up

Throughout the years, Chen’s birth family never stopped searching for him and made it a point to put up as many missing-person posters as possible.

And as the years rolled by, the search would get significantly more hi-tech as well, with Li’s older sister putting up the missing-person notice on popular video-sharing app TikTok.

Yes, that Video-sharing app. But alas, it failed to work.

According to Chen’s birth sister, their father had passed away 10 years ago from his heavy drinking, as he allegedly berated himself for their son’s disappearance. Yet, despite his impending death at the time, their father refused to give up on the search, urging his wife to take on the mantle in his stead.

Truly, it’s a Korean drama in the making. Only difference here?

It’s real.

And Their Efforts Eventually Paid Off

According to reports, police from Changzhi city in Shanxi province had made a startling revelation roughly half a year ago in June:

Chen’s DNA reportedly matched his parents’ DNA in the police database.

Thereafter, they contacted the police in Henan province’s Xiuwu county, and the rest, as they say…

Is history.

Li and his biological mother were eventually reunited, and the family reunion was a tearful one.

According to video footage of the reunion, Chen’s mother continuously reiterated how they were worried sick when he went missing, and how they’ve tried to find him for so long.

Chen’s birth family was also gratuitous towards Li’s adoptive parents for raising him and taking care of him.

And That Ends Off Today’s Tear Up Thursday

It’s easy to take your parents’ love for granted, your family’s affection for nought. But always remember;

There are numerous cases out there who would kill to have what you have.

So the next time you curse at your parents for being incessantly strict again, think again;

Would you be truly happier if they weren’t around anymore?
