Chapter 262: The CEO’s White Moonlight (16)

The Qu Family.

“Xiang Ran, Xiang Ran, touch your mother’s hand, help her see if there is blood on it, otherwise why do I feel so cold.” Qu’s mother huddled in her bed, wrapped in three layers of duck down quilts, and felt very cold even with the air conditioner at 28 degrees.

She hadn’t dared to close her eyes for two days and one night. As soon as she closed her eyes, she would think of Ji Ran falling down in front of her, with blood blooming under him. As soon as she closed her eyes, a child would run to her and cry with tears and blood all over his face.

“Mother, your hands are clean, there is nothing on them.” Qu Xiangran held her hand and sat beside her. He had never thought that things would develop into what they are now. Because Ji Ran was hospitalized for miscarriage, his father hated him too.

"Ji Ran, do you know how scared I have been these past few days? I was so scared that I didn't even dare to close my eyes. I was afraid that if I closed my eyes, the child that Ji Ran had aborted would seek revenge on me. You know, I'm most afraid of children crying. I'm most afraid of children." Qu's mother tightly grasped her son's sleeves and huddled in his arms.

"Mother, don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Qu Xiangran patted her back gently, only to find that his always strong mother was so thin, with only bones on her back. When did the plump mother in his memory become like this? He closed his eyes and thought for a moment, but could not find the answer.

"Xiang Ran, I'm not afraid at all that your father will divorce me now. If divorcing him can make up for Ji Ran, I'm willing to divorce him as many times as I want." Qu's mother trembled in Qu Xiangran's arms, "I really didn't expect Ji Ran to be pregnant. I really didn't push her down on purpose. I really didn't mean to. Xiang Ran, you know your mother. She has never even handled poultry. How could she harm the child in her belly? Xiang Ran..."

"Mother, take a nap. Have a good nap. I'll take care of other things." For the first time, Qu Xiangran noticed the weak heart hidden under his mother's control. He knew very well that although his mother had a strong control desire, she was not a bad person.

Ward.

"Sister Ji Ran, how are you? Do you feel better?" Shi Yi, who came in with a fruit basket, smiled and handed her a bunch of magnolia flowers. "There is an old lady selling them at the entrance of the hospital. I took the initiative to buy you a bunch because they are cheap."

"Not bad. I didn't lose my life." Ji Ran, who was wearing a hospital gown, glanced behind her, but didn't see the person he wanted to see. He quickly retracted his gaze and sniffed the fragrance of magnolia flowers.

"Are you still waiting for him?" Shi Yi picked up an orange from the fruit basket and skillfully drew two circles on it with her fingernails. In less than half a minute, she peeled a whole orange.

"I just want to say some goodbye words to him. I booked a flight to Singapore next month." Ji Ran's face was frank, without any shyness at all.

"Sister Ji Ran, I feel like you are reborn now." Shi Yi tore off a piece of fruit and stuffed it into her mouth.

Ji Ran smiled bitterly, "As for me, I only understand it now after living for several lifetimes." She even lost a child before she realized that she and Qu Weilai were not suitable. But even if she really said it out loud, no one would believe her about rebirth.

"Have you really thought it through?" Shi Yi looked at her seriously, afraid that she would regret it halfway and come back to meddle in the affairs of the Qu family, and finally have a miserable ending.

"I've thought about it." Ji Ran's eyes were gentle. "In this world, you are the only friend I have a good relationship with. As a friend, I should not hide anything. I think you definitely don't know my family situation yet. I have been without a father since I was a child. My bastard father tricked my mother into having sex and then ran away, leaving my mother with me to live a hard life. He died when I was fifteen. When I was young, people said that I had no father. Although I had never seen him and hated him in my heart, I always imagined what he looked like, and whether he would protect me from being bullied if he was by our side. My fantasy about my father ended at the age of fifteen. My mother's death made me realize that I can only rely on myself in the future. After my mother's death, in order to survive, I did many things that many people would despise."

The footsteps stopped at the door of the ward. Shi Yi wanted to remind Ji Ran, but it was obvious that Ji Ran had noticed it.

"Qu Weilai appeared when I was most helpless. The appearance of Qu Weilai made me stop fantasizing about my father. He gave me spiritual support and made me desire life again. He brought me out of the dust, but pushed me back into the dust. He shouldn't have lied to me that he had no family or children. I was also stupid. I actually believed a middle-aged man in his fifties who was so well maintained." Ji Ran's eyes were filled with deep sorrow. "But he was so good to me, so good that I thought how happy I would be if I had a father like this. I was immersed in such happiness for a long time, but I knew in my heart that I was just a thief. All this happiness was stolen from another woman. Yu Zhen reminded me of my mother, who always looked forward to the man coming home, but never saw him all her life, so she could only close her eyes with resentment. My mother hated mistresses, but I became such a person. My sins are very serious."

"Doctor, ward rounds." The nurse followed the doctor in with a cart.

After a while, Qu Weilai also came in with supplements. He glanced at Shi Yi, and Shi Yi went out consciously.

"You're here." Ji Ran was still so gentle, so gentle that it seemed as if nothing had happened, and they were still on such a good relationship.

Qu Weilai held her hand, and she did not break free. He wanted to find distrust and vigilance towards himself from the bottom of her eyes, but there was none. He felt a great sorrow. The woman in front of him now treated him like an ordinary person. He was a little depressed.

"Weilai, I'm leaving. I will never come back here again." Ji Ran reached out and touched the two conspicuous white hairs on his head, which was something she would never see from Qu Weilai, who was well-dressed in the past.

Qu Weilai wanted her not to leave, but he didn't know what identity and position to use to keep her.

He caused her to lose the first child she had in her life, and also his child. He was very sad, but he knew that as a mother, she was even sadder.

"Weilai, live a good life in the future. I used to resent you, but now I just want you to be well." Ji Ran pulled her hand back from his hand, turned around, and stopped looking at him.

Qu Weilai looked at the thin figure curled up on the bed and strode out of the ward.

At the age of fifty, he realized that gentle people are often the ruthless ones in the end, because she has done everything she can do and endured everything she should endure. She has a clear conscience and no regrets. In the end, she decided to let go and she would never look back.

Of course, he would not ask Ji Ran to stay, stay for him.

Because he knew very well that it was useless to ask Ji Ran, because Ji Ran already felt disgusted.
