After Dawn Chapter 61: Mother (1)
Qing Ran slowly knelt down in front of the woman, she stretched out her hand, trembling to touch the woman's face.
After hesitating for a while, Nalan Qianyun's dull eyes gradually became brighter. She turned her head to Qingran, and the focus of her eyes was condensed on her face.
"Ran Ran..." she shouted in disbelief.
"Of course, you forgive mom, right? You finally came to see mom, right?" She knelt on the ground and stretched out her hand to Qingran, but she passed through Qingran's hand.
She was stunned for a moment, as if she couldn't believe it. She looked at her hands, put down the black and white photo of Nalan Qingran, and walked a few steps closer to Qingran on her knees. She raised her hand to touch her face. but passed through her body.
Qing Ran sat there on her knees, her eyes were sad, but there were no tears.
——A ghost has no tears.
Nalan Qianyun didn't believe it. She tried several times to touch Qingran, but all of them ended up passing through Qingran's ghost body.
"Of course, did you not forgive mom, so you didn't want to let mom touch you..." she asked, her eyes full of remorse.
"Mom—" Qing Ran called, her voice was ethereal and mournful in the empty room, "I'm dead—"
Nalan Qianyun tilted her body and fell to the ground as if she had been drained of all her strength in an instant.
"Of course, you lied to Mom, you just didn't want to forgive Mom, so you didn't come to see me..."
"Of course, Mom is wrong, can you let Mom hug you..."
"Ran Ran..."
Tears rustled from her eyes, her frowning brows made her seem to have grown old again, tears blurred her vision, as if thinking of something beautiful, a smile appeared on her face, She said in a daze: "My Ran Ran is the most beautiful, although she doesn't say it, but when she was a child, she liked to secretly wear my high heels..."
"She is only twenty-six years old, she is still so young, so cute, how can she marry into the Fu family to suffer and be someone else's daughter-in-law, I want to keep her for two more years..."
"Ran Ran said that I will go to Paris on a business trip next week and bring me the latest jewelry..."
Qing Ran knew that she was hysterical. Under the crazy thoughts of her daughter, Nalan Qianyun refused to admit the fact that Nalan Qingran was dead.
It may be a beautiful thing to let her live in her own memories, and let her live with the fantasy of her daughter, but Qing Ran knows that she will not break her fantasy today and will wait for Na Lanqian in the future Cloud's, it will be a more cruel ending. Because not far away, there are two hungry wolves with green eyes staring at her closely.
"Mom, look at me, I'm Ranran." Qingran said, "I'm already dead, today is my first seven, and it's the last time I come back to see you..."
"You lied to me, you are not Ranran!" Nalan Qianyun retorted strongly, "Of course she didn't die, she just went on a business trip, where are you a lonely ghost, get out of here!"
"Mom! I'm dead!" Qing Ran shouted hysterically, "Look, that's my portrait!"
"I'm dead, on my twenty-sixth birthday!"
"Mom, why don't you avenge me!"
Nalan Qianyun looked at the black and white photo on the ground in a trance. The woman in the photo smiled softly and brightly, but the black and white color cruelly told others that such a bright and beautiful life has become a thing of the past.
She was stunned for a long time before she reacted: "revenge?"
"Vengeance for what?" she asked, then her teeth began to tremble violently, and the skin on her face twitched, "Of course, someone hurt you?"
Qing Ran pursed her lips, closed her eyes and nodded.
Nalan Qianyun was trembling with anger: "Who is it, tell Mom, Mom will definitely let him be buried with you!"
Qing Ran said nothing, Nalan Qianyun began to recall the guests at the banquet that day, and suddenly two familiar figures flashed in her mind.
"Ning'er and Shen Qi?"
Qing Ran opened her eyes, although she didn't speak, there was a strong sadness flowing out.
Nalan Qianyun thinks of the intimacy of the two today. At first, she only thought that Fu Chenqi was so close to her because Nalan Neng was too sad. Now, in retrospect, her sister had just died, and her sister had been with her. The future brother-in-law hugged each other, and it didn't make sense.
She looked at her daughter, who was kneeling in front of her, with only a translucent ghost body, and suddenly felt sad: "Of course, it's my mother who's sorry for you..."
"Mom should have known long ago that Chu Ning is an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf with a narrow mind and a vicious mind. How could he suddenly become better..."
"It's my mother's fault, it's my mother's failure to protect you, I should have sent someone to investigate her, I should have discovered her affair with Fu Chenqi..."
Qing Ran raised her hand to wipe away the tears on Nalan Qianyun's face, but her hand passed through her body. She carefully controlled her strength, and every stroke just brushed from her face. However, she stubbornly wiped away the tears she couldn't wipe away.
"Mom, I don't blame you, I don't know people well."
"Someone in the company has been spreading rumors about Chu Ning and Fu Chenqi, but I have not taken it seriously."
"On the balcony that day, it was also the first time that I discovered the adultery between the two of them."
"He, how dare they!" Nalan Qianyun said angrily.
Qing Ran shook her head and said, "I don't know."
In the first life, as an older sister, she can be regarded as doing her best to her wayward younger sister. When Nalan Qianyun cut off relations with Nalan Leng, she used her own money to help her from time to time. When she found out that she was taking drugs, she also Instead of thinking about giving up, she planned to find the best doctor and hospital for her to detoxify. However, Nalan Condensation didn't appreciate it. Instead, she took everything Nalan Qingran did for her as a matter of course, even when Nalan When Qing Ran did something that didn't meet her wishes, Nalan Neng felt hatred for her.
In this life, although Nalan Condensed is no longer degenerate, she has never treated this younger sister who is not related to her.
In the end, she was the most innocent victim.
She can be said to have a clear conscience towards Nalan Ning and Fu Chenqi, but the two seem to hate her to the core.
Qing Ran closed her eyes, and Nalan Ning's eyes when she pushed Nalan Qingran off the balcony appeared in front of her again.
Hate, pleasure, mixed together, those bright and clean eyes looking at Fu Chenqi were as black as a bottomless hell.
"Of course, how do you want to get revenge on them, tell your mother, and she will avenge you."
Qing Ran shook her head and said blankly, "I don't know."
Nalan Qingran's heart is indeed full of hatred, but she is kind by nature, and when it comes to revenge, she doesn't know how to avenge it.
Nalan Qianyun closed her eyes, she knew that her daughter, although talented and intelligent, was the purest and kindest, otherwise she would not have fallen into the hands of Chu Ning and Fu Chenqi.
"Of course," she changed the subject, she didn't want to let the short time with her daughter be wasted on two irrelevant people, "Do you remember your childhood?"
Qing Ran understood her painstaking efforts, and followed her words: "Remember."
"I remember when I was a child, when you were only that old," Nalan Qianyun recalled. "You saw the piano playing on TV, and you insisted that I buy one for you too."
"I said you were fooling around. Who knows, when the piano is turned on, you can play it decently, and the teachers you invite will praise you as a genius."
"Yes," Qing Ran flipped through the memory in her mind, "I liked playing the piano most at that time, because every time I played the piano, Mom, you would come out of the study to see me for a while."
Nalan Qianyun turned her head to prevent Qingran from seeing the tears on her face.
Nalan Qingran's father was a son-in-law who was recruited. When Nalan Qingran was three years old, he divorced her because of Nalan Qianyun's overpowering. After Nalan Qianyun lost her marriage, she devoted herself to her work wholeheartedly, making Nalan Group bigger and stronger. Even when she went home, she was busy with work, and her young daughter was often thrown to the nanny. , The two spend almost no time alone for a few days a month.
The only way to relax Nalan Qianyun is to listen to piano music, so whenever Nalan Qingran practiced the piano, sometimes she felt tired, so she would lean against the door and listen to it for a while. Now that I think about it, Nalan Qingran wanted to learn the piano at the beginning, perhaps just to spend more time with her mother.
"Of course, can Mom play a song for you too?" she asked.
"Okay, it's a pity that I can't play it now." Qing Ran said, her words made Nalan Qianyun's nose feel sour again, almost poking her heart to remind her that she had no protection. Good daughter, now the ghost of the daughter standing in front of her.
In Nalan Qingran's personal apartment, although it is not big, there is a special room that has been converted into a piano room.
Nalan Qianyun opened the lid of the piano and sat down in front of the piano. Qingran smiled at her and sat beside her, placing her hand on hers.
"Twinkle and twinkle, the sky is full of little stars..."
Qing Ran sang along softly, and Nalan Qianyun closed her eyes with tears.
“derwhatyouare…”
The two smiled at each other from time to time, as if returning to a time they had missed. Qingran's body gradually shrunk, turning into the appearance of a child by Nalan Qianyun's side. Nalan Qianyun's hair gradually changed from gray to black and beautiful, the wrinkles on her face disappeared, and the corners of her raised lips were happy. And beautiful.
……
After playing the piano, the two talked for a long time, about childhood, about Qingran, and about Nalan Qianyun.
After all, Nalan Qianyun hasn't closed her eyes for days and nights. She has been crying while holding the photo of Nalan Qingran. Although she has energy now, she can't resist the tiredness of her body. Chatting and chatting, she leaned on the sofa and fell asleep, but when she closed her eyes, there was a smile on the corners of her lips.
Qing Ran stood up and placed a shallow kiss on her cheek. Although she couldn't touch Nalan Qianyun's body, she already felt very satisfied.
"Mom, take care of yourself."
One step and three turns, she finally walked out of the door. Standing under Nalan Qingran's bachelor apartment, she turned her head and glanced nostalgically at Nalan Qianyun's room where the light was still on, then looked away, and pulled the red dress she wore on her birthday, floating in the other direction. go.
