Translator: 549690339
Xia Yangyang felt as if she’d been struck by lightning.
It was as if she’d been pushed into an icy pool, her whole body trembling in cold.
What her grandmother meant was, her mother had discovered her father’s affair, eventually choosing to commit suicide out of desperation.
What were Xia Liangdong’s acts of care when her mother was hospitalized?
Was it all just a show for her to see?
If so, Xia Yangyang felt the last bit of warmth left between her parents had evaporated.
Xia Yangyang had forgotten how she returned home.
When Xia Yangyang walked into the yard,
Gu Qichen had just finished sweeping the yard and was washing his hands by the well.
Seeing Xia Yangyang return, he walked over, curious, “Did grandmother mention me?”
But Xia Yangyang seemed to be in a daze.
She walked into the house mechanically.
As if she hadn’t heard Gu Qichen’s words at all.
Gu Qichen instantly felt something was wrong.
Xia Yangyang went into the house, and cried under a blanket all alone.
She didn’t know why, but the news had a huge impact on her.
Xia Yangyang felt as if something in her heart had been destroyed.
Her mom had committed suicide.
If her mom really committed suicide, then her father must bear an inescapable responsibility.
Xia Yangyang felt indescribable pain inside.
She could forgive Xia Liangdong for cheating for many years, and even for having another daughter.
But she couldn’t forgive him for his betrayal that led to her mother’s suicide.
In Xia Yangyang’s memory, her mother was such a gentle person, why would he bear to hurt her?
What kind of shock must she have experienced to willingly leave her behind and depart from this world?
Xia Yangyang didn’t dare to imagine.
Gu Qichen sat down next to the bed, patting Xia Yangyang’s back lightly.
He didn’t rush to ask anything, just gently comforted her.
After a while, when he heard the footsteps of Yangyang’s grandmother returning home,
Xia Yangyang lifted her head from under the blanket, forcefully wiping away her tears.
Only then did Gu Qichen ask, “What exactly happened? Can you talk about it?”
Xia Yangyang shook her head. “I’ll tell you later. It’s about my mom. I have a lot of things to confirm.”
Xia Yangyang didn’t want Gu Qichen to know that her mom committed suicide.
And her mind was in chaos right now.
Gu Qichen didn’t press further.
Xia Yangyang’s mother has been dead for ten years, and the revelation that shook her so much must have been a hidden secret.
That must be a deep wound in Xia Yangyang’s heart, which he didn’t need to dredge up.
If she wanted to talk, she’d tell him naturally.
They sat in the room for a while, until her grandmother called them to dinner.
During dinner, her grandmother’s attitude towards Gu Qichen was strangely much better.
She even served Gu Qichen some dishes.
Gu Qichen was somewhat surprised.
Xia Yangyang knew clearly in her heart.
All of her grandmother’s previous behavior was nothing but a test of him.
Now that he had probably passed the test, her attitude towards him naturally improved.
However, after finishing dinner, Xia Yangyang said, “Grandma, I plan to go back to the city tomorrow.”
“Why do you want to leave so soon?”
“There are some things I need to take care of in the city, don’t worry grandmother, as soon as I get a break, I’ll come back to see you often.”
When Xia Yangyang and Gu Qichen left,
The grandmother had prepared a lot of things: home grown vegetables, beans, pickled radishes, which filled up a whole car for them to take back.
