Yan Qiang touched her lips through the mask.
There was a slight tingling sensation.
She felt that Huo Qi was a little different from usual this morning, as if he had predicted something would happen, which made her feel very uneasy.
The plane is about to take off.
She glanced out the window. Dark and heavy clouds completely covered the sun. The fog was heavy. The clouds in the distance were very low, as if a heavy rain would fall at any time.
Yan Qiang unconsciously gathered her cashmere sweater, and her heart felt heavy.
…
At the same time, the Yan family.
Liu Jinfang didn't sleep for half the night. When she went downstairs, she saw Yan Ce downstairs and did not go out.
In the past few days since she came back, she has seen her son very rarely.
Liu Jinfang was wearing a cashmere silk scarf, and her body looked thin and weak. She didn't come near, she just leaned in the corridor and looked at Yan Ce.
This is her son.
But it seems that he is no longer like mother and son with her.
"Are you afraid?"
She suddenly spoke up.
Yan Ce is handling official business.
Hearing the sound, he put away the tablet in his hand and raised his head. Her words were not surprising at all: "I have been afraid every day since the day something happened to the Yan family."
He was afraid that the Yan family would be destroyed in his hands, he was afraid that he would not be able to shoulder the responsibilities of the family, he was afraid that his sister and mother would suffer along with him, and he was afraid that he would have no face to face his biological father when he went underground.
But that's not what Liu Jinfang asked at all.
But his answer made Liu Jinfang feel as if someone had slapped her face.
She felt a lump in her throat before she said, "I won't break my promise if I promise."
Yan Ce stood up and looked at her from a distance, with more and more disappointment in his eyes.
He didn't understand what he said last night. Seeing that his mother was still yin and yang at this moment, he didn't even want to keep her affection.
"Mom, are you afraid of me or you?"
His eyes had lost the tenderness of the previous two days and were filled with chills, "Are you planning to get on the plane and tell me that name again? Do you think Qiangqiang and I will kill you if you tell me?"
Liu Jinfang's face changed drastically, "What are you talking about?"
"Is it nonsense or what? You know better than me."
Yan Ce tore off the fig leaf, "Qiangqiang was here last night. If you said you would leave today, I would agree. You said we would talk about it when you leave, and I would agree. I don't want to say these things in front of Qiangqiang. I don’t want to disappoint her. Ever since she stepped into this door last night, have you cared about her? Apart from accusations, what else have you said? Do you know that the name you hide can destroy her at any time? You don’t Concern! You only care about whether you can leave well. You are even afraid that after saying this name, we will be angry and disappointed with you, so you would rather use this name as a threat than discuss with us how to deal with this matter. Dealing with it can avoid trouble or minimize losses! You never thought about this!"
Liu Jinfang covered her heart, in disbelief that these words came from her son's mouth.
"You accuse me? I raised you like this..."
"You should be grateful that you raised Qiangqiang and me."
Yan Ce was really disappointed.
He had said so much and was even looking for steps for her. As long as she explained why she did this, he was still willing to believe her.
But what she cared about was that she was accused of trying to suppress him with the kindness of raising him.
"The air tickets have been purchased. Breakfast is in the restaurant. After that, I will take you to the airport."
After Yan Ce finished speaking, he walked out, his back looking cold and determined.
Liu Jinfang fell down on the stairs.
She flew for more than ten hours to return to China, wasn't it just for them? But now she is being educated by these two children, and she no longer even has the right to educate her own children!
Liu Jinfang was heartbroken.
Aunt Chen came from the restaurant and helped her to the dining table.
Liu Jinfang covered her heart and calmed down for a long time, then asked Aunt Chen: "Where is Qiangqiang?"
Aunt Chen didn't see Yan Qiang when she got up.
After thinking about it, she said: "The eldest lady flies around all year round, busy filming to relieve Mr. Huo's pressure, and rarely comes back. Sometimes she is still in the mountains and forests. I remember one time when she came back, she was covered in mosquito bites. It’s scary.”
Liu Jinfang's face turned even darker, "You mean, I'm the only one enjoying the blessings in this family, right?"
"Madam, I don't mean that!"
Aunt Chen's face changed drastically, and she quickly explained, "I just said that the eldest lady may have gone to the airport. I heard her talking to Assistant Chen about the eight o'clock flight last night."
Yan's house is some distance from the airport.
A flight at eight o'clock is equivalent to leaving for the airport at five o'clock.
It was still dark at that time, and Aunt Chen didn't get up.
"I've been back for so long, why doesn't she even have a meal with me? She and Xiao Ce scolded me when they saw me last night, and they left without saying a word today. Does she regard me as her mother? ah!"
Liu Jinfang felt more and more that these two children were unkind to her.
Aunt Chen didn't dare to say anything.
But I was thinking in my heart that when the eldest lady came back last night, she coaxed you obediently. It was obviously you who started scolding the eldest lady without saying a word.
"I won't eat anymore."
The more Liu Jinfang thought about it, the angrier she became. With a cold face, she asked Aunt Chen to pack her things and go directly to the airport.
Yan Ce sent her off in person.
The mother and son were sitting in the car, but they looked at each other in silence.
It wasn't until the car parked at the airport that Liu Jinfang handed him an envelope with a sullen face. Yan Ce opened it in front of her, making her expression even more gloomy.
"Would I lie to you?"
Liu Jinfang didn't expect Yan Ce to be so distrustful of her.
There was only a piece of paper in the envelope with a name written on it. After Yan Ce stared at the name for a while, he put the envelope away and said calmly: "It's just a habit. After all, the Yan family is in a precarious situation, so be careful."
Liu Jinfang's face turned even worse.
Every word he said seemed to contain something about her, a yin and yang about her.
Is this what a son should say?
"I know you are resentful of me. If nothing happens, I may not come back again." Liu Jinfang looked at Yan Ce with a sullen face, "Don't worry, I still have some money in my hand, so I don't need you to support me in my old age."
Yan Ce looked at her seriously: "Mom, do you know what you are talking about?"
Not using them to support them in old age and not coming back again almost means severing ties.
"Isn't this what you want?"
Liu Jinfang had been holding it in all night, and just now she was holding it in again. She was finally able to stop vomiting what was in her heart before leaving.
She looked at Yan Ce with a chill: "Just because I couldn't face your father's death and chose to escape, you and Qiangqiang resented me and felt that you were carrying a heavy burden while I only knew how to enjoy life. I don't stand in the way. Your eyes, okay? I don’t ask you to repay your kindness in raising me. I have suffered for decades, and I just want to spend my old age peacefully."
Yan Ce listened calmly.
"good."
He didn't argue again.
From the time Liu Jinfang went abroad to now, he and Yan Qiang had never complained about her, and even understood her very well. It's just that she hasn't figured it out until now. This was never what he and Yan Qiang complained about.
Yan Ce sent Liu Jinfang through the security check.
Seeing her not looking back, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with this.
It wasn't until Liu Jinfang couldn't be seen that Yan Ce took out his cell phone and sent a message to Yan Qiang.
