C54 (1/2)
Wen Xin didn't have time to guess what was going on.
She looked around the room. The room was not too dirty, as if someone had been cleaning it regularly.
”Dad, I'm back. Sorry …” Wen Xin muttered, the tears flowing into his mouth was salty and bitter.
”Jade Bead, look who dad brought here?” Wen Xin was leaning on the windowsill and looking at the scenery outside, holding onto the brush as he drew. Hearing his father's shout, he ran down the stairs.
”Daddy, isn't this the aunt on TV?” Wen Xin said as she looked at the woman in front of her.
The woman was very beautiful, with a noble temperament. Her features could be described as devastatingly beautiful, and she often appeared on television as a great star. Wen Xin liked her a lot.
”Do you like it?” Yan Han squatted down and asked Yan Yuzhu.
Yan Yuzhu nodded.
”Then let her be your mother?”
Yan Yuzhu looked at the girl in front of her with anticipation.
After a while, Yan Yuzhu shook her head. She pointed at the woman on the painting and said, ”I have a mother. It's this. This is me. This is my father. This is my mother.”
His mother's Jade Ball since he was young was more sensible than any other child, but this made his heart ache even more. He wholeheartedly wanted to find a skillful stepmother for her, so that she could receive the motherly love he wanted, while Zhao Xinyi was Jade Pearl's favorite celebrity.
When Yan Yuzhu saw that woman on the first day, she rejected her mother's request to be her mother. However, since then, that woman would often come to their home and would always present her favorite gift when she came.
Facing Zhao Xinyi's kind smile and her father's smiling face, Yan Yuzhu finally agreed because she rarely saw her father smiling so happily.
On the day her father and stepmother were married, she shut herself up in her room and spoke to her with a picture of her mother: ”Mom, dad married a new mom today.”
”Mom, there's no one to accompany you today. Can I accompany you from now on?”
”Mom, that auntie treats me very well and dad is very happy too. I did the right thing, didn't I!”
Yan Yuzhu was alone in her room, hugging her mother's photo as she talked.
Wen Xin strolled around the room, and finally stopped at a pink colored room upstairs.
She opened the door. The interior was exactly the same as it had been 15 years ago. It even gave her the illusion that she had traveled through time and space.
She opened the cabinet and took out a small wooden box from the bottom shelf.
Inside was his mother's memento.
She had secretly saved them.
The day after her stepmother and father were married, she packed up everything she had to do with her mother.
She also remembered that the stepmother had broken the picture of her mother in order to fight for a picture. It was a picture of her father and mother getting married, and the woman in the picture was beautiful, with a warm smile, and the man beside her in a black suit was handsome, and the two of them standing together seemed like a beautiful scene, so beautiful.
