After saying that, Duan Ye hurriedly left.
As she pushed open the door to leave, the cold air from outside blew into the bedroom, making Luo Qingyuan feel a slight chill.
Kyoto, mental hospital.
In a room at the far end of the sixth floor, a person sat quietly by the window.
The door opened, but Ye Nuan remained seated by the window, not even lifting her head.
The visitor continued talking to himself.
"Nuan Nuan, do you know that Duan Ye went to Wenzhou for Nan Xing more than three months ago? Nan Xing took a bullet for Duan Ye at the critical moment of life and death. Now she has returned to Kyoto, her injuries are almost healed, and her career is becoming more and more prosperous."
"But Duan Ye hasn't returned to the capital yet. The Luo family's daughter went after him and has been staying in Wenzhou with him."
“They have turned the whole of Wenzhou upside down. Now everyone is on edge, afraid that one day the fire will spread to them.”
The people behind him talked a lot, all about Duan Ye's recent situation.
But Ye Nuan still didn't respond at all.
The people behind him finally lost their patience.
"Ye Nuan, you are a despicable wretch. You didn't take advantage of your opportunities, and now you're just eager to be hated. This predicament is entirely your own fault!"
"I'm still worried about your future, I must be crazy!"
After hurling insults at her, the woman tried to leave.
Ye Nuan spoke up at this moment: "Mom..."
Her voice was hoarse and unpleasant, making Chen Li frown involuntarily; it didn't sound like a normal woman's voice at all.
Chen Li sneered: "Now you know how to call me 'Mom'? What were you doing before?"
Ye Nuan didn't answer the question, but instead asked, "Who sent you?"
Ye Nuan has been locked up here for almost four months. She counts the days, but apart from Luo Qingyuan's visit, no one has come to see her.
That's not right either, her biological mother has been visiting frequently lately.
Chen Li was stunned for a moment, then, as if her sore spot had been touched, she stomped her foot and cursed, "You lowly girl, what nonsense are you spouting?!"
Ye Nuan chuckled softly, "Mom, I've known you for so many years, I know you too well..."
"How much money did you take from those people?"
Ye Nuan asked softly.
"Mom, you don't gamble at the table anymore, but you still dared to take money from those desperate criminals, and you gambled even bigger..."
Chen Li's eyes widened, and Ye Nuan could clearly see the twisted and unwilling look in Chen Li's eyes reflected in the window in front of her.
But you can also see…
Chen Li was dressed in a glamorous and dazzling outfit.
"Mom, that pearl necklace you're wearing must be expensive..."
"That gold ring on your hand must be very expensive..."
"Let me guess, which prominent family in Kyoto did you make a deal with?"
"Mom, aren't you afraid of getting yourself into trouble?"
Ye Nuan spoke in a calm tone, but Chen Li could hear one provocative word after another in her voice.
Chen Li was stunned, terrified, and filled with resentment.
Ye Nuan's all-knowing demeanor is just like her father's.
Memories pulled Chen Li back to those nights that had caused her countless breakdowns, filled with her desperate questioning and cries. And where was that person?
I watched her go crazy, watched her madness, with perfect rationality and clarity; she was like that madwoman.
Ye Nuan not only looks like him, but also has the same temperament and personality.
She hated Ye Nuan, and even more so Ye Fan, who never spoke a word to her except for providing alimony.
Chen Li grew angrier the more she thought about it, and finally, unable to bear it any longer, she picked up a cup from the side and smashed it over her shoulder.
Ye Nuan felt a sharp pain in her shoulder, which made her involuntarily frown.
Chen Li: "You're just like your father, Ye Nuan. You deserve to end up like this. You don't deserve any pity or sympathy at all."
"No wonder Duan Ye doesn't want you."
"If you stay here like this, no man will want to marry you. You'll just have to live out your days alone!"
After saying that, Chen Li slammed the door shut and left.
Ye Nuan was left alone in the dimly lit room, her face still expressionless, and she sat quietly until eight o'clock in the evening.
The door to her room was opened again.
This time, however, the visitor did not speak immediately.
Ye Nuan smelled the aroma of food and heard the sound of something being placed on the cabinet.
Finally, Ye Nuan slowly turned around and saw a most familiar... stranger.
Ye Fan.
When Ye Fan and Chen Li divorced, she was still young, but she could already remember things.
This man... has never appeared in her life since her divorce.
Ye Nuan never expected that their reunion would be like this.
She stood there, her face terrifyingly indifferent, but her hands, hidden beneath her sleeves, were trembling slightly.
Ye Fan smiled at her, opened the food and placed it on the table. There were familiar dishes such as scrambled eggs with tomatoes, beef brisket soup with tomatoes, stir-fried cabbage, and stir-fried pork with green peppers.
These are all dishes that Ye Nuan loved to eat when she was a child. Of course, she still loves to eat them now, but she hasn't eaten them for a long time. What she eats most often are the bitter medicines here, handful after handful, in an endless cycle every day.
Ye Fan: "Dad cooked this dish himself. I wonder if his cooking skills have gotten worse. Xiao Nuan, come and try it?"
My memories were instantly pulled back to that summer.
After school, her father came to pick her up at the gate. He carried her pink schoolbag, bought her her favorite ice cream, and led her home, saying that dinner was already prepared and waiting for her.
My mother is always kind and gentle. When she sees them come, she always smiles and tells them to go wash their hands and eat...
