In the afternoon, in the lobby of a three-story villa.
Jiang Jingshi was putting away the things she had brought with her in the large study room on the first floor. When she received Lin Zhengran's call, she responded:
"Okay, I get it, Zhengzheng. OK, then you and Wenwen don't have to go back to school these two days. Just come back and sign the leave slip."
She blushed and smiled: "Why are you being so polite to me? But Wenwen... is she okay? What exactly... Well, okay, let's talk about it when we get back. You two should be careful."
After Jiang Jingshi hung up the phone, Jiang Xueli came in with a box and put some things in the study.
Xiao He Qing followed closely behind, also carrying bags of different sizes in her hands. The three of them each had their own responsibilities.
Jiang Jingshi turned around and looked at the two of them: "Lili He Qing, Zhengzheng said that he and Wenwen will not come to school these two days. Wenwen's family had some problems and they returned to the south."
Jiang Xueli and He Qing paused. Although they had expected it, they were still a little surprised.
"Back to the South?!" He Qing asked hurriedly: "What did Lin Zhengran say? Is it serious? What can we do?!"
Jiang Jingshi had experienced more things after all, and could analyze something from Lin Zhengran's tone: "Zhengzheng didn't say what happened in detail, only that Wenwen's family was seriously ill. I guess there must be some other reason for not saying it clearly. Let's wait, otherwise asking in detail may only cause trouble and cause them trouble."
Jiang Xueli nodded: "It's okay with Zhengran here, he can do anything."
Although he said this, his expression showed that he was still a little worried.
Jiang Jingshi smiled and confirmed Jiang Xueli's words: "I also think that Wenwen will be fine as long as Zhengzheng is with her."
The two responded.
The high-speed train speeds across the city border.
Lin Zhengran held Han Wenwen's hand in the car, and she was actually shaking with fear.
My palms were sweating and I was shivering.
He lowered his head, thinking about something.
Lin Zhengran asked, "How much do you remember about your mother?"
Han Wenwen shuddered and came back to her senses, leaning on Lin Zhengran's shoulder: "Not much, I just remember that when I was a child, my mother was always busy and could not stay with me for a long time every day. Later, she left without saying a word, went out to buy things and lied to me that she would be back at night, and then I never saw her again."
Han Wenwen pleaded, "Brother Zhengran, don't let go of my hand. I'm scared."
"Yes." She held Han Wenwen's snow-white and tender palm tightly: "I'm here."
We arrived in the south safely at night.
After getting off the high-speed train, Han Wenwen took out her cell phone and called her uncle.
As soon as the uncle in the hospital found out that it was Han Wenwen calling, he quickly answered the call.
Han Wenwen has been a bit stubborn since she was a child.
There is basically no way to go back on things that have been decided, and what happened back then really hurt Wenwen deeply.
He couldn't persuade her at all, so after Han Wenwen didn't answer the first call, the uncle could only say a few simple words on WeChat to respect her thoughts.
However, being caught between the two, he still hoped that Wenwen would come to see her sister for the last time.
"Hello Wenwen? Why are you calling?" My uncle's voice was a little excited.
Han Wenwen hesitated and said, "I've already taken a bus back to the south. Please send me the ward number so I can go see her."
My uncle nodded without saying anything: "You went back to the South?! OK, OK, I got it, I'll send it to you right now! Go slowly on your way."
Han Wenwen hung up the phone and looked at the address on her phone.
The two bought some gifts and took a car to the People's Hospital.
When we arrived at the door of the hospital ward, only my uncle and aunt were there, and it seemed that they had been waiting at the door for a long time.
"Wenwen! You're back!" The uncle, who was pacing back and forth, asked immediately when he saw someone. He also noticed Lin Zhengran holding Han Wenwen's hand: "This is Lin Zhengran..."
Han Wenwen smiled at her uncle and aunt: "Uncle and aunt, long time no see, this is my boyfriend, I have told you many times before."
Lin Zhengran greeted: "Hello, uncle and aunt, my name is Lin Zhengran."
Lin Zhengran's temperament was quite unusual. When his uncle and aunt saw him, they nodded and said, "Hello."
The aunt said to Han Wenwen, "Your mother is in the ward. Your uncle and I will not go in. You two can go in and take a look. She will be very happy when she hears that you are coming."
Han Wenwen's expression didn't change much. She just glanced at the ward from a distance and said, "I understand."
Walking to the door of the ward, Han Wenwen kept taking deep breaths.
Lin Zhengran held her hand tightly again to encourage her.
Only then did she have the courage to push open the door of the ward.
Looking up, I saw a thin and haggard figure wearing a hospital gown, but who could still be seen to be extremely beautiful and slender when young, lying on the hospital bed.
The woman had an oval face similar to Han Wenwen's. If she were a few decades younger, she would definitely have a pair of extremely charming fox eyes. However, she looked a little older due to her age and could not be compared with the young Han Wenwen.
Han Wenwen's eyes trembled as she looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure.
The woman on the bed also turned around when she heard the voice. When she found the girl standing at the door, her weak eyes widened and she didn't dare to believe it: "It's Wenwen?"
Han Wenwen gritted her teeth and walked over slowly with Lin Zhengran.
Lin Zhengran greeted first: "Hello, Auntie, my name is Lin Zhengran, and I'm Han Wenwen's boyfriend."
The woman stared at the handsome Lin Zhengran and sighed: "What a charming boy, hello."
Han Wenwen looked at the woman whom she hadn't seen for more than ten years. She was nervous and anxious on the road, feeling a mixture of various emotions. But now when she stood at the scene, she just felt it was funny and normal.
Because the woman in front of him was nothing like what he remembered. She was not as beautiful, young, or out of reach as he remembered.
"You look completely different from what I remember, like two different people."
The woman stared at Han Wenwen's incredibly beautiful face with trembling eyes, and was shocked: "You too, I didn't expect you to be so beautiful now... much more beautiful than when I was young." She suddenly laughed: "It's completely different from what I imagined. I thought I wouldn't be able to see what you look like when you grow up, but I didn't expect you to be willing to come and see me for the last time."
She clenched her fists: "I didn't plan to come, but Brother Zhengran said that coming here doesn't necessarily mean forgiveness, so I came here to see what you look like now."
"Really..." The woman kept staring at Han Wenwen's face, unable to express her inner emotions: "Brother Zhengran, what an intimate name, thank you." Her last sentence was addressed to Lin Zhengran.
Lin Zhengran just smiled.
Han Wenwen: "What did the doctor say? How many days can he live?"
"Not necessarily. It may take some time, maybe a month or so."
"That's quite long. A month has thirty days."
"It's very long"
"I remember when I was a kid, the night I was looking forward to your coming back never ended. It was only one night."
The woman looked at her daughter with a somewhat disgusted yet complicated look, her lips trembling:
"I'm sorry, Wenwen. I don't mean for you to forgive me. I just want to say sorry to you."
Han Wenwen's eyes suddenly moistened, and she trembled as she said, "How dare you say this to me? Don't tell me you have any difficulties. Why are you saying sorry after you've already thrown it away? People should always be responsible for what they have done."
The woman laughed at herself and said, "You're right. I really hope I have some reasons for doing so, but I really haven't done anything respectable in my life. Maybe the most human thing I've done is giving birth to you and raising you well for a few years."
"Why..." Han Wenwen asked softly: "Although so many years have passed, I still want to ask, why? Why did you abandon me back then?"
The woman also had tears in her eyes: "At that time, I felt that I should have a better life. A young and beautiful person like me should not be dragged down by a child for the rest of my life, so I left..."
Han Wenwen looked at her mother who was telling the truth and laughed: "I guess that's the reason. Thank you for telling me the truth. It's just that you didn't get the life you wanted."
The woman sighed, "I will get old eventually. A woman's face can't be used as a meal for a lifetime. I can't win the hearts of men just by relying on my face. They will leave once something happens. I didn't even plan to let them spend money on my treatment, but they just watched me and were afraid that I would infect them. Looking back on all these years, it seems that the only one who really clung to me and loved me from the bottom of his heart was you when I was a child. This is why I want to see you. Children are really too innocent, so I miss you so much."
Han Wenwen frowned slightly.
The woman looked at Han Wenwen worriedly: "Wenwen, how are you doing now? Are you living on your own, or..."
"Don't worry, I won't follow your old path. I live on my own. Although Brother Zhengran is very good and has helped me a lot, he often said that people should have their own hobbies and things they want to do, so I became a game video blogger based on my expertise and what I like. Now I have one million followers. I used to have more than 1.6 million, but I lost some because of laziness during the college entrance examination. But I will continue to do it in the future. Before I met Brother Zhengran, I also did many part-time jobs online. Of course, in the eyes of adults, it may be a bit unprofessional, but from beginning to end I never thought about harming my body."
She took out her video account and showed it to the woman.
The woman looked at the video and her worried brows relaxed: "That's great. I feel relieved." She suddenly burst into tears: "It's great that you didn't do the same thing as me." (End of this chapter)
