Huo Beichen calmly comforted her, "Don't worry, although coming to me won't help, you can think of other people."
"Who else can I turn to?" Yun Wanqing asked.
"People who can speak to them."
Yun Wanqing couldn't think of anyone who could speak up for Lu Dongjue, Lin Zhibai, Gu Fanyan, and Yun Suiwan.
"I don't know, I don't know!" Yun Wanqing broke down.
Huo Beichen sighed softly, "It's okay if you can't think of anything right now, you can take your time to think about it... I believe there are still people in this world who truly care about you."
Yun Wanqing put down the phone, Huo Beichen's words still echoing in her mind.
There are still people in this world who truly care about you...
The people who truly care about you...
Suddenly, a woman's face appeared in Yun Wanqing's mind.
"Qingqing, this is your favorite lobster."
"Qingqing, you want a new bag, right? Just go to the store and pick one out. Don't worry about the bill."
"Qingqing, it's getting chilly these days, so drink less alcohol when you're out, or you'll get a stomachache again."
"..."
"Mom..." Yun Wanqing unconsciously uttered this word.
She almost forgot that she had a mother, namely Yun Suiwan's mother, Li Xiaoyun.
Perhaps, it is only when people are in dire straits that they clearly remember who the best person in the world is to them.
Yes, Li Xiaoyun.
Li Xiaoyun is Yun Suiwan's mother, and she has influence over Yun Suiwan.
She immediately picked up the phone, thought for a while, and finally dialed a number based on her memory of over twenty years.
"Hello, who is this?" After a moment, the phone was answered.
"mom……"
"Qingqing, it's you, Qingqing!" Li Xiaoyun exclaimed excitedly as soon as she uttered the first word.
Yun Wanqing was stunned. So fast? She thought Li Xiaoyun would have to think back for a while.
Although Yun Wanqing is ruthless, she is not stupid.
She thought about it and decided that crying loudly at this moment would definitely have a better effect.
"Mom!" she called out again, then burst into tears.
...
Yun Suiwan suddenly opened her eyes.
Outside the window, all was quiet and pitch black.
"Mom, I am your biological daughter, why don't you believe me?"
"Shut up! Don't keep bringing this up, and it's no excuse for you to bully Qingqing!"
In her dream, the argument between her and her mother, Li Xiaoyun, still echoed clearly in her ears.
She wasn't awakened by a start.
Instead, I was awakened by a persistent, lingering pain.
Actually, that happened a long time ago.
She thought she had already forgotten.
However, some hurts are forever etched in our memories and can never be washed away.
"What's wrong?" Lu Dongjue immediately noticed her subtle movements.
He rolled over and pulled her into his arms.
"It's okay, go to sleep."
She nestled in his warmth, using it to soothe her aching heart.
fine.
She still has him.
The next day, Yun Suiwan didn't wake up until ten o'clock.
Lu Dongjue has already left; he has to go on a business trip for two days.
She sat up and found a note left on the bedside table.
Be good and wait for me to come back.
It's clearly Lu Dongjue's handwriting.
A slight smile crossed her lips; he was treating her like a child.
As soon as she went downstairs, she smelled a rich aroma of food.
"Miss, you're up. Are you going to the company today?" Aunt Li asked.
"Go ahead." Yun Suiwan asked, puzzled as to why Aunt Li suddenly asked this.
"Young Master Lu instructed me before he left that he ordered some seafood and asked me to cook it for you today."
Aunt Li replied, "Your favorite things, like lobsters and crabs, young lady."
Yun Suiwan found it funny; he not only treated her like a child, but also like a foodie.
She understood that Lu Dongjue wanted her to stay at home for the next two days.
Some "unauthorized persons" cannot enter the house.
"Okay, I won't go to the company today, but I'll make lunch later." Yun Suiwan didn't want Lu Dongjue to worry.
She worked in her study at home, and by the afternoon, she had finally finished her official business.
She picked up her golf clubs and went to the backyard, where she had previously had a small golf course built.
Although it's not a professional skill, it's enough for one person to pass the time at home.
She had just played two balls when suddenly she noticed a figure standing outside the garden wall not far away.
The man stared intently at her, his eyes filled with anger and coldness.
Yun Suiwan was slightly taken aback, then gave the other person a cold smile and turned to leave.
The garden wall is three meters high, and the top is reinforced with anti-theft measures.
Only in a few places were a few railings used as decoration.
The other party really went to great lengths to find an angle that could keep an eye on her.
Aunt Li was a little surprised to see Yun Sui come upstairs late at night.
Every time the young lady plays ball, it takes at least an hour.
"What's going on?" she asked the butler who was walking inside.
The butler's face was grim, and he said in a low voice, "Madam is here."
Aunt Li was stunned for a moment before she realized that the housekeeper was talking about Yun Suiwan's biological mother.
"You still call her 'Madam'?" Aunt Li immediately scolded, "Have you forgotten who pays your salary? Have you forgotten how she treats Miss Li?"
The butler frowned deeply and remained silent.
"How dare she come knocking on the door!" Aunt Li said indignantly.
"She didn't knock," the housekeeper explained the whole story.
After hearing this, Aunt Li became even more furious, "What does she mean by this! She comes without knocking, doesn't let you ask the young lady for permission, and sneaks around in the corner scaring people! Is this how a mother should act!"
"You close the door properly. If you dare let her in, I'll have the young lady fire you tomorrow!" Aunt Li said coldly.
The butler didn't dare say anything more, nodded, and quickly went out to guard the gate.
Aunt Li thought for a moment, then served the freshly stewed bird's nest soup and went upstairs to knock on Yun Suiwan's room door.
"Thank you, Aunt Li, please put it there." Yun Suiwan sat on the recliner, her face looking very unpleasant.
Aunt Li couldn't help but feel sorry for her. How could such a good young lady have such parents?
She couldn't help but say, "Miss, don't get angry over unrelated people. It's not worth ruining your health. Young Master Lu will also feel sorry for you."
Yun Suiwan sighed deeply in her heart.
To be honest, Li Xiaoyun's sudden appearance reminded her of many unpleasant memories.
Those past events were like shovels, constantly digging into her heart.
It took a lot of her energy.
“Aunt Li, I don’t want to think too much about it, but she’s not an unrelated person,” on the contrary, “she’s the person in this world with whom I have the deepest connection.”
Aunt Li came to her side and gently comforted her, "But none of this is your fault, because you had no choice."
"What you can choose is the kind of life you will live in the future."
Yun Suiwan looked at Aunt Li and said, "Yun Wanqing is in trouble again. She must have come here this time to ask me to save Yun Wanqing."
"Aunt Li, should I agree or not?"
"Of course I won't agree," Aunt Li replied.
"What if she refuses to leave if I don't agree?" Yun Suiwan asked.
“I don’t believe she won’t leave,” Aunt Li said bitterly. “I know her. She’s been a rich lady for half her life and can’t handle any hardship. She used to be the kind of person who would need two days to recover after just five minutes in the sun. She likes to wait, so let her wait. Let her go hungry for a couple of meals and then sunbathe for several hours. It’s no wonder she’ll leave!”
