Chapter 471 - You Are Not Her II (2/2)
One of the doctors said a few words. Jiang Ruolan was supported by Jiang Yijun and when she heard the doctor's words, her face turned ashen. Her tears fell drop by drop, and she smiled bitterly.
She looked at Zhou Qingling, who was frowning and smiled bitterly at her. ”Congratulations. You're finally succeeding in your revenge.”
”Ruolan!”
”Lan!”
***
Two years later …
G City's Cemetery.
A handful of chrysanthemums were gently placed in front of the tombstone. Jiang Ruolan, dressed in black, stood silently in front of the tombstone and looked at the name that had been changed on it.
A man put his hand in his pant's pocket and also looked at the name on the tombstone.
The person beside her was Jiang Yijun, who had a sullen expression.
”Auntie Jia, I have been sweeping your grave for years and only knew about the truth a little too late. Yijun also came to see you with me for these past years, you must be very happy, right? There is so much chaos in the human world, so much love, and hate, yet no one is as free as you. After you left, you said goodbye to all the pain and hatred.”
”I am so sorry, for many years, because of my mother, your departure could not be peaceful. Now, she is finally willing to let go of this matter. The Jiang Family has been raided and she has decided to stay here. My mother...She finally settled into the Jiang Residence legally. I never thought that a person who had passed away more than twenty-one years ago are alive and in front of me. She has the same hatred as you, but her personality is much stronger than yours. Perhaps...If Chiahao and An Na hadn't learned how to call her 'grandma' and make her cold heart soften, perhaps she still wouldn't be able to walk out of the shadow of hatred.”
”Auntie Jia, I heard Old Man Xian had come with Zhan An to see you not long ago. Even though you left, you were still recognized by the Xian Family in the end. They also had come to plead for my mother's forgiveness.”
”Zhan An is a kind woman, and so are you. It's just that you both were tested by fate and cheated by a man. Actually, you don't want to ruin someone else's family, do you? Since Yijun is already grown up, you must be very pleased.”
After leaving the cemetery, Jiang Ruolan returned to the hotel and packed her belongings.
Jiang Yijun said, ”Aren't you going to stay with Aunt Zhou? She's been waiting for you to come back.”
Jiang Ruolan's hand that was holding clothes stiffened for a moment. She turned and stared at him. ”Every month, I'll bring my children to visit her, but my job at H City. You know how busy I am. I can only find a little time to visit her, she's my mother, after all. I will not let her live in Jiang Family's old residence without taking care of her.”
”Then why don't you take her back with you too? Xian Zihao is already …” Jiang Yijun stopped. ”In the end, Greenville Residence is a place where you live alone with your children. With her by your side, won't you all be spared from loneliness?”
Jiang Ruolan smiled, ”Jiang Family is the knot of her heart. Let her stay here. This city will be good for her. Also, didn't Uncle Huang come to see her last month after hearing the news?”
Jiang Yijun sighed. ”You're still waiting? Isn't it tiring to keep smiling like this every day?”
Jiang Ruolan smiled. ”When Zihao and I were trapped at the foot of the mountain, I remember what he said to me before he fell into a deep sleep.”
”He said I owed him something. He said that he wanted me to live well, live happily, for his children, for him.” Jiang Ruolan paused, then said with a smile, ”Chiahao and An Na are growing healthier, and Chiahao increasingly resembles him. He also looks like you, in many ways. I am really grateful for all these things.”
