[Xia Lili clearly didn't cry, so why do I feel like she's so sad? My nose is sore.]
[Alas, often the calmest people are the most painful inside. They simply learn to endure and hide their pain because it is their way of protecting themselves. Ultimately, it is all caused by the shadow of their childhood.]
How can Liu Guilan have the dignity to appear before her daughter again? Judging from her behavior, she must have abandoned the child. Now she's pretending to make amends and not even daring to say anything. This is truly sinful. If she doesn't decide to take responsibility, then she shouldn't have given birth. Childhood trauma is difficult to heal throughout life.
[Lili, don't be sad. We've been through so many years. There's no need to reminisce about this now that we're adults. Just pretend you've never met this person.]
[Yes, she goes her way, you go your way, each to his own happiness!]
Chen Xi had calculated Liu Guilan's entire life from the moment he met her, including her calculations! As well as the truth or falsehood of the previous statement, everything was under Chen Xi's control.
But I can't say it directly now. I have to wait until the causal line between her and Xia Lili becomes faint, and then Chen Xi can take action at the right time and cut it off directly. In this way, Xia Lili's future life will be smooth and happy.
So Chen Xi decided to add fuel to the fire, so she asked with interest: "Aren't you going to explain to your daughter? Maybe this is your last chance to repair your relationship."
Liu Guilan opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say. It was done, there was no need to explain.
It was a pity that I couldn't extract her bone marrow for my own use. Liu Guilan smiled bitterly.
Xia Lili didn't think too much about it. After hearing what Chen Xi said to Liu Guilan, she also wanted to hear this woman's explanation.
This has been a knot in her heart and has been with her for many years!
She always wanted to know what exactly caused this woman to abandon her husband and children and stay away from their Xia family.
Xia Lili was prepared and looked at Liu Guilan indifferently, waiting for her explanation.
But after a long time, she didn't speak again.
Xia Lili laughed at herself. It was just as she thought. That was it. So be it. She was no longer the Xia Lili of her childhood who longed for her biological mother to return and then hold her in her arms to warm her like a hen protecting her chicks when the weather was cold, and protect her behind her when danger came.
Now she can stand on her own feet, support herself, and protect herself.
For some people and some things, it’s always too late.
Xia Lili took a deep breath and looked towards the door. "Go away! From now on, we'll keep our distance and become strangers."
Chen Xi's eyelashes twitched, fearing that if the head really died, the cause and effect on Xia Lili's side would not be severed, and she would have to live in the shadow forever in this life.
So Chen Xi immediately exaggerated and asked Liu Guilan: "What do you mean? Are you just going to stop recognizing each other like this? Who will burn paper money for you then? Do you think you have lived such a refined life, only to experience a hard life in the underworld?"
Live life?
That won’t do! Liu Guilan absolutely doesn’t want to live a hard life!
"I......"
Liu Guilan seemed to be hesitant to speak, and she looked like she had something to hide. In fact, she was carefully considering her words, wondering how to strike the right note for Xia Lili, so that she would let go of the past and take care of her funeral.
[Auntie, just tell me, we're already separated by heaven and earth, why do you still care so much?]
[You seem so anxious, but what's the problem? I'm sure Xia Lili has gotten to know you better over the time she's been with you. If we just talk it out and untie each other's knots, everything will be fine.]
Yes, my mother abandoned me when I was little, but I don't blame her because I know she left because she couldn't stand my father's beatings. Back then, people in the village were saying bad things about my mother behind her back, and I always stood up and confronted them. Even though I haven't seen her in all these years, I never cared about her. We just need to live our own lives. No one can be with you forever.
[Xia Lili, please listen to your aunt's explanation and don't regret it later.]
Indeed, judging by your behavior, you desperately desire maternal love, so give her a chance, and give yourself a chance too. Explain what happened back then and make sense of it. That way, you won't have a knot in your heart forever.
Xia Lili held her phone tightly, and she could catch a glimpse of the messages on the barrage, but she didn't want to bow her head and beg her, saying that this was her only stubbornness.
Liu Guilan was a little moved by what Chen Xi said. She looked at Xia Lili and saw that she seemed to have relaxed as well, and looked like she really wanted to hear an explanation.
Liu Guilan sighed and pretended to be the first to give in. "Lili, I'm sorry! Whether you accept it or not, I have to say this apology. I owe you this."
"Actually, I thought about taking you with me, but your father disagreed. He used you to threaten me. If I didn't give you up, he wouldn't agree to a divorce."
Xia Lili just felt funny in her heart. Just because he didn't agree to divorce, he left her alone in that cannibalistic place and never showed up.
Forget it, all the expectations were worn down in childhood.
There is just a question that has been bothering me for a long time, and I will feel uneasy if I don’t ask about it.
"Why didn't you come back to see me?"
Xia Lili stared at her intently and asked the questions that had been in her heart for decades.
Liu Guilan was stunned by the question, and Sol said awkwardly, "I don't dare go back. I'm afraid your grandmother will get angry when she sees me and treat you badly."
After he finished speaking, he added excitedly: "But I have been following you. I know that you were the top scorer in the county in the high school entrance examination and the top scorer in the city in the college entrance examination."
