午夜的女人

“Sigh.” Li Qing sighed. Her face, which had been baptized by time, was covered with a faint layer of sorrow.

Su Ruowan’s nose was sore. She opened her arms and hugged her mother who was even thinner than herself. She slowly said,” Mom, ever since I was sensible, I have never seen my father. In the past, I was insensible. When I was young, I even blamed you because of this and hated you in my heart. But do you know? Ever since I gave birth to Jiujiu five years ago, I can especially understand how you’ve been feeling all these years. A single woman raising a daughter alone and raising her up. You’ve endured for decades, been strong, and endured the malicious gazes and criticisms of the outside world…You must have had a hard time all these years, and you must be very lonely in your heart. I understand all of this, and I can empathize with you. So now, I finally have a home of my own. If you don’t live in this home, I really feel that I’m unfilial. I really can’t leave you here alone to live…

Mom, just listen to me and come to D City with me, okay?”

Li Qing reached out and placed her hand on Su Ruowan’s arm. Her eyes were red as she finally said,” I’ll think about it.””

Hearing this answer, Su Ruowan sighed in her heart. She pursed her lips and was about to speak again when Wu Lili’s voice came from the bedroom.

Su Ruowan and Li Qing looked at each other and could only put down the topic in front of them and quickly walked over.

.

In the bedroom, Wu Lili was lying on the bed and shouting,” Aunty Su, Aunty Su, come quickly! Help!””

“..”Shangguan Yan’s face was full of helplessness. Hearing her high-pitched screams, he was worried and wanted to laugh. He could only say,” Lili, stop screaming. Be careful not to disturb the fetus again.””

“Auntie Su! Auntie Su!” Wu Lili couldn’t stand him anymore. He just sat there and looked at her like a fool. He didn’t say anything and just stared at her with his burning eyes. Helplessly, she could only call Li Qing into the house to save her because she had been lying there for a long time and her entire body was almost numb!

Su Ruowan pushed open the door with a bang and asked,” Sister Wu, what’s wrong?”

When Wu Lili saw Su Ruowan, her entire person quieted down. She then glanced at Li Qing who was behind Su Ruowan. In a flash, everything seemed to be clear.

No wonder Shangguan Yan would appear here. Li Qing must have told Su Ruowan, and Su Ruowan told Shangguan Yan!

“Auntie Su, why did you betray me?”Wu Lili bit her lip and suddenly felt hurt. She thought that this would be the safest place to hide, but she was betrayed by her most trusted elder!

Li Qing was stunned. She looked at Wu Lili and stammered.

Shangguan Yan quickly said,” This matter has nothing to do with Auntie Su! I was the one who found out that you lived here!”

Wu Lili glared at him.” Do you think I’m stupid? You investigated? How did you check?”
