how much it hurt me when Dad ran away from me"In prison, she kept deceiving herself, telling herself that things would be better after she was released.When she finally saw it, she realized, oh, reali...He stretched out his hand to catch the cup, and shielded Heloise behind him.
"Get out! Get out of here!"
A heart-wrenching scream, filled with silent anguish, echoed through the room.
A-wai's heart was beating fast, wanting to step forward to see what was going on, but just as she took a step, He Hanchuan grabbed her. "Stay here and don't move, I'll go take a look," he said.
"Mhm." A-Wai nodded.
Almost as He Hanchuan was walking toward the door, Mrs. Zhong was also pushed out of her room by Yu Jingyun.
"Get out! From now on, I don't have a friend like you anymore! Don't ever come looking for me again!" Yu Jingyun's eyes were bloodshot red, and with a bang, she slammed the door shut.
Mrs. Zhong had several scratches on her face from her fingernails. She kicked the door hard, her eyes red as she shouted: "Jingyun, don't you think you're too biased I treat you better than her, but whenever something happens, you always stand on her side and never consider me."
There was silence inside.
Mrs. Zhong raised her voice, "Yu Jingyun, don't play deaf with me! Just tell me straight, after decades of friendship, have you abandoned me, your old friend, for the sake of a dead person!"
"Get out!" Yu Jing roared, her voice trembling with tears, followed by the sound of something heavy hitting the door.
Upon hearing this, Madam Zhong's face turned pale with alternating hues of red and white. She wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes, stomped her foot heavily on the ground, and walked to Xiang Wan's side.
Wan never expected things to turn out like this, and a sense of unease grew in her heart.
"I don't know what your mother was thinking! You tell her, if she doesn't want me as a friend, I don't care!" Mrs. Zhong said through sobs, grabbing her bag and stormed off.
向晚 was stunned for a moment before walking to the door of the room and knocking softly, "Mom"
No response.
"Mom" Xiangwan knocked on the door again.
There's still no response.
He held her hand and comforted her, "Don't think too much about it."
"She had another episode of depression recently, secretly taking medication," Xiang Wan's heart pounded with anxiety. "I asked Zhong Fu to talk her out of it, but..."
She didn't continue speaking, but instead walked past He Hanchuan and went downstairs. She called a few servants to watch below and told them to inform her if they noticed anything unusual.
Then, A-Wan asked the servant for Jing Yun's room and went upstairs again.
"What's wrong Was Mom just arguing with someone" Lin Na-lu came out after calming the two children.
向晚 briefly recounted what had just happened, frowning. "I knocked on the door several times, but Mom didn't respond."
"Don't be too sensitive," Lin Nalu said. "To put it bluntly, even before she had depression, Mom was the type who would get upset over things easily. Her situation now is just more severe than before, but it's definitely not as serious as you think."
Yuanwan hummed in response, but her brows remained furrowed.
She always felt uneasy, as if something was about to happen.
Lin NaLu glanced at He Hanchuan.
"If you're still not convinced, I can arrange for a doctor to check on Madame Xiang." He lightly grazed Xiang Wan's nose with his finger. "You're just pregnant, overthinking things."
"I used to overthink things too when I was pregnant," Lin Nalù chimed in. "Whenever your brother came back late, I'd worry he might have cheated on me or gotten into an accident on the way."
They all said so, but Yua felt a bit doubtful. Could it be she was overthinking things
"Though, I'd better talk to Mom about it. That way I feel more at ease."
Lin Nalulu nodded and knocked on the door, "Mom, can you open the door Taotao is crying and insists on seeing you!"
He took out his phone, sent a few WeChat messages, then put it away.
There was no reaction at first from inside the door, then a very light footstep sound could be heard.
Click.
The door opened.
Yu Jingyun appeared at the door with red-rimmed eyes, her expression weary. "Where's Taotao"
"Just in the toy room," Lin Nalü said.
They went to the toy room, two children were playing with toys, but it was clear they had been crying.
"Grandma—hug—" The little girl ran to Yu Jingyun, taking short, rapid steps with her broken leg, acting cute and coquettish.
向晚 looked at this scene, her hand unconsciously placed on her lower abdomen.
Will her children be so sweet and adorable in the future
"See, I told you you were overthinking things" The two generations had a blast. Lin Na Lu said to Xiang Wan, "Mom is just a little pessimistic sometimes, but not to the point of wanting to die like you said."
Towards Evening looked at her mother again, also feeling that it might be her being too sensitive.
She stayed in the toy room for a while and then went out with He Hanchuan. It was already December, and it was quite cold outside. She called back several servants and specifically instructed them not to spread what just happened.
"Can we go shopping now" He Hanchuan asked.
Towards the second floor, Yuwang glanced at it for a moment, hesitated for a while, and finally nodded.
During pregnancy and postpartum, people tend to be more sensitive, she probably just overthought it.
On the way, Lu Xiaowan considered it for a long time before saying, "My mother and Madam Zhong aren't quite normal. I plan to have Cao Detective investigate."
Given her mother's personality, she wouldn't tell her even if she asked.
"Have you been considering whether or not to tell me this" He Hanchuan asked.
Towards Evening pursed her lips and nodded.
Over the past two years, she had gotten used to swallowing everything and telling no one. But now, she wanted to try changing that.
He Ge Hanchuan's mouth twitched into a very faint arc, but it disappeared quickly. "No need to go through so much trouble."
Towards Evening, “”
"I've already had people look into it," He Hanchuan said. "Your mother had two good friends back then, one was Yu Xuan's birth mother, Miao Huilan, and the other is Madam Zhong now."
"A few months after Miao Auntie married Uncle Zhong, Uncle Zhong cheated on her with the current Mrs. Zhong. Moreover, the two of them became pregnant one after another, which was Yu Xuan and Zhong Er Shao."
Aunt Miao initially didn't know Zhong Ershao's biological father and took very good care of him. Later, your mother accidentally stumbled upon Mrs. Zhong and Uncle Zhong's affair, but she didn't tell Aunt Miao about it.
Later, Aunt Miao learned about this from someone else and immediately collapsed. Coincidentally, Second Young Master Zhong was at the Zhong family residence at that time. She wanted to kill him, but your mother stopped her.
Aunt Miao felt that both love and friendship had betrayed her, and she jumped off a building to commit suicide that day.
Two best friends turned against each other because of a man, leaving Yu Jingyun tormented and in anguish. She struggles every day with the decision of whether or not to reveal the truth to her friend.
She chose to feign ignorance in the end, but Miao Huilan still uncovered the truth.
And her act of saving Zhong's mistress' son became the last straw that broke Miao Huilan's nerves, and Miao Huilan committed suicide.
Yu Jingyun felt guilty and silently cut off all communication with Mrs. Zhong, hoping to find peace of mind.
But Xiang Wan and He Hanchuan invited Madam Zhong to the Xiang family, completely stripping Yu Jingyun of this self-deceiving peace!
Towards the end of her story, she sat silent for a long time, gripping at her clothes with white knuckles.
