The cemetery was empty and deserted, with only a few cleaners cleaning.
Wen Ran turned a few corners and found her mother's tombstone with ease.
It says on it: Tomb of loving mother Jiang Qingwan.
She squatted down, placed the chrysanthemums in her hand in front of the tombstone, then raised her hand and used her sleeve to wipe the words engraved on the tombstone.
He choked up and said, "I'm sorry, Mom. It's been so long since I came. It's all covered in dust."
Wen Ran wiped it very carefully, and after that she also wiped away the dust on top of the tombstone.
Wen Ran's little hands were red from the cold, and he rubbed them for a long time as if he had no feeling.
Mo Feifei stood at the back and wanted to go up to help, but felt it was inappropriate.
I simply lowered my head and silently said in my heart: Hello sister, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bother you, please don't be angry...
Wen Ran polished the tombstone until it was black and shiny enough to reflect a person's shadow before he stood up.
His gaze turned to Wen Tonghai.
Wen Tonghai felt uneasy when he was stared at by Wen Ran, and he fell to his knees with a plop.
He slapped his thigh at the tombstone and started shouting, "Qingwan, I'm so sorry! You were so seriously ill back then, and I did something so wrong to you. I, I really deserve to die!"
Wen Tonghai's wailing voice was particularly harsh in the entire cemetery.
Wen Ran watched this scene quietly and recalled the past.
When she had just graduated from college, Jiang Qingwan suddenly started vomiting blood at home and couldn't eat.
After going to the hospital for a check-up, it was discovered that he had advanced gastric cancer.
Wen Ran was not in a hurry to find a job. He stayed in the hospital with Jiang Qingwan for chemotherapy every day.
In more than a month, Wen Tonghai only came to the hospital once, left a little money, and turned away impatiently, saying that the company was too busy.
Jiang Qingwan is as beautiful as her name suggests, with a gentle and virtuous personality.
Jiang Qingwan never blamed Wen Tonghai for his indifference and alienation, and was only concerned about arranging his funeral.
He underwent chemotherapy in the hospital for two months and passed away until he became as emaciated as a skeleton.
Wen Ran cried so much that she almost passed out in the hospital. She called Wen Tonghai, but heard a woman's laughter on the other end.
After waiting for a day, Jiang Qingwan's body was covered with corpse spots, and Wen Tonghai did not come to the hospital.
The hospital nurses wanted to clear the bed forcibly, so Wen Ran had to contact the crematorium himself and take care of Jiang Qingwan's funeral.
After returning home, Wen Ran went to look for the land deed that Jiang Qingwan mentioned before her death.
It is a place 60 kilometers east of the urban area of Beijing, called Foliu Mountain.
The peaks of Foliu Mountain are green and the springs in the mountains are gurgling. It is a treasure mountain with great development value.
It is also Jiang Qingwan’s dowry.
Wen Ran searched the house thoroughly but couldn't find the land deed that Jiang Qingwan mentioned.
Not only that, Wen Tonghai also brought Mo Feifei home.
Wen Ran and Wen Tonghai had a big fight, and also learned that Wen Tonghai had obtained a marriage certificate with Mo Feifei on the first day after Jiang Qingwan's death.
The two of them have been together for more than half a year.
"Qingwan, I know I was wrong. I didn't treat you well. Now the company is in debt. If you know about this, please help me get through this difficult time."
Wen Tonghai knelt on the ground and cried with tears and snot.
While wiping his tears, he secretly looked up and glanced at Wen Ran.
Seeing that Wen Ran's expression was so grim and terrifying, he quickly lowered his head and continued to howl.
Time passes by.
The sun slowly slid westward, stretching the shadows of the three people longer and longer.
Wen Ran never showed any intention of leaving.
Having come to this point, Wen Tonghai didn't want to back down and could only keep crying and repenting.
Whenever a cemetery staff member passes by here, they will stop and look for a moment out of curiosity.
The temperature is getting lower and lower, and the cold wind feels as painful as a knife cutting on the cheek.
Wen Ran finally spoke when Wen Tonghai's snot was almost frozen.
"Every Qingming Festival in the future, remember to bring paper money to visit her."
Wen Tonghai listened with his ears perked up, then nodded vigorously.
"Okay! Okay! I got it. I'll come."
Wen Tonghai cried for so long that his voice is now hoarse.
Wen Ran looked at the tombstone for a long time, and then the corners of her lips curled up slightly, just like the tone she used when she told Jiang Qingwan that she was going to school when she was a child.
"Mom, I'm leaving. I'll come see you next time."
Wen Ran left.
Wen Tonghai quickly got up from the ground and staggered after him.
Mo Feifei bowed to the tombstone and clasped her hands together.
"I'm sorry, sister. I really didn't know you existed. Otherwise, I would never marry Wen Tonghai. I'm so sorry."
When Mo Feifei first saw Wen Ran, she was as shocked as if aliens had appeared on Earth.
Because Wen Tonghai always told her that he was single.
They met at a cocktail party, and Wen Tonghai relentlessly confessed his feelings to her.
Because Wen Tonghai's company is a film and television company, in order to better develop in the entertainment industry, Mo Feifei and him sparked a romance.
Mo Feifei glanced to the left and saw Wen Ran and the other man walking further away. She bowed again and said, "I'm sorry, sister. Please bless me and Wen Tonghai to divorce as soon as possible."
After saying that, Mo Feifei went to chase Wen Ran.
When they got in the car, Wen Tonghai told Wen Ran that the debt repayment deadline he and the creditor had agreed upon was three days later.
Let Wen Ran go back to raise money first, and then go to the creditor's house to repay the debt three days later.
Wen Ran had no objection. He sent Wen Tonghai and Mo Feifei back to Qingyuan and returned to Xishan Villa.
When we returned to Xishan Villa, it was already completely dark.
I happened to meet Shang Jingchi who was coming back from the company.
Shang Jingchi threw the car keys to Liu Zhengfeng, asked him to park the car, and walked over to Wen Ran with his long legs.
When I got closer, I found that Wen Ran was cold all over, and his little hands were as cold as ice.
Shang Jingchi frowned, "Where have you been?"
"I went to shoot a commercial." Wen Ran made up an excuse.
In fact, she had the heater on in the car on the way back, but she still couldn't recover.
Shang Jingchi didn't ask any more questions. He took Wen Ran's hand and strode into the villa. When he saw Wu Xiumei, he ordered, "Auntie Wu, go make a bowl of ginger soup."
"Okay, Master!"
Wu Xiumei put down what she was holding and quickly went to the kitchen to get busy.
Shang Jingchi walked to the sofa and sat down. He pulled Wen Ran hard with his arms, and Wen Ran sat steadily in his arms.
Wen Ruo's back was pressed against Shang Jingchi's chest, feeling his hot body temperature, just like an artificial heater.
After a while, she felt hot.
After thinking for a while, he quietly reminded Shang Jingchi, "Boss Shang, Auntie Wu is about to come out."
If Wu Xiumei came out and saw them like this, Wen Ran would probably just want to find a hole to crawl into. It would be too embarrassing.
Shang Jingchi closed his eyes, rested his chin on Wen Ran's shoulder, and smelled her faint body fragrance. "Call me by my name from now on."
Before Wen Ran could say anything, he suddenly noticed something unusual under Shang Jingchi, and he wanted to stand up like a frightened bird.
Shang Jingchi opened his eyes and hugged Wen Ran tighter, with a malicious smile on his lips.
"Why are you panicking? I didn't do anything to you."
