On the day Jiang Wanwan was born, I received a call from Sheng Changxiu.
Based on my experience, I believe Sheng Changxiu deliberately timed her delivery precisely to coincide with my due date. She called me to make me angry, upset, and create severe negative emotions; she definitely hoped I would have a difficult labor, ideally dying on the operating table, resulting in the deaths of both mother and child.
If I die, it will be exactly what Sheng Changxiu wants, and then she will be completely satisfied with her revenge.
I don't want to think of Sheng Changxiu this way, but her hatred, annoyance, and torment of me year after year have forced me to think of her this way.
Reason told me to hang up on her, but I inexplicably answered her call again.
To my surprise, Sheng Changxiu's phone call did not turn out as I had expected.
She said to me, "I wish you a safe delivery and your child a healthy growth."
When I heard this blessing, I thought it was sarcasm, and that her true meaning was definitely the opposite. While I was lost in thought, my mother snatched my phone and gave Sheng Changxiu a lecture and warning on the other end of the line.
After the warning, the mother angrily hung up the phone call from Sheng Changxiu.
My mother, mindful of my critical moment, remained silent and did not ask any questions.
I think my mother must have wanted to ask me back then why she labeled Sheng Changxiu as "good at dancing".
I would have hesitated and been unable to answer this question, but if it were now, I could answer it: I have always retained the innocence and forgiveness we had as children towards Sheng Changxiu.
It was only later that I understood why I was always tormented by Sheng Changxiu, why I couldn't escape the shadows and become a truly carefree person, forgetting all that pain. Because I hoped Sheng Changxiu could forgive me, and likewise, I hoped I could forgive her.
Once the balance is achieved, the scales will gradually stabilize.
When will forgiveness be complete?
yes……
It was the day I learned that Sheng Changxiu had passed away peacefully at Lake Bira...
I thought it was a hoax, a scheme orchestrated by my family to free me from the shadow of Sheng Changxiu forever. They believed that once they believed Sheng Changxiu had disappeared from the world, the lingering shadow of those years would vanish.
I don't believe it.
I am very stubborn.
I firmly believe that it was a setup by my family.
But I was really happy that year. I had a happy family, a son who was a little over a year old, and everyone around me loved and cherished me.
Until the spring of the following year.
Yunsheng took Wanwan back to Xinjili. Perhaps she overlooked the fact that Wanwan has a clear memory, because when Wanwan came back, she babbled to me, "Mommy, Lake Bila is so beautiful, so beautiful, so beautiful~"
I asked Wanwan, "Did your aunt take you there?"
Maru's pronunciation wasn't very clear, but she still understood and nodded earnestly, "Mmm~"
She also told me, "My aunt bought so many beautiful flowers!"
When the flowers were mentioned, Maru's eyes shone as brightly as the stars.
I was somewhat lost in thought.
What was Qi Yunsheng doing at Lake Bira? He even bought so many flowers…
I know about Lake Bila. It is the largest natural freshwater lake in the entire country. The scenery there is beautiful, and the lake surface is as smooth as a mirror. The most famous thing is that there is a huge magnolia garden next to Lake Bila, which is full of white magnolia flowers. I went there many times with Sheng Changxiu.
Sheng Changxiu's fondness for Bila Lake wasn't because of the lake itself, but rather because of the magnolia garden. Knowing her longing, I even bought her a villa by Bila Lake so she could live there and not miss the magnolia blooming season.
