Living and flying together is enviable.
It seems that even if everyone in the world betrays him, the person next to him will still stand on his side.
This is something that Li Fenglan can only dream of.
After Linghan and Xu Qingchen got married, less than ten days passed before Xu Qingchen hurried back to Jiajimen, leaving Linghan to live with Zhang Yuan and his wife in Yangzhou. Xu Qingchen's meaning was very clear. He didn't want Linghan to follow him through fire and water. He wanted her to live a stable life. Linghan also understood Xu Qingchen's thoughts and did not refute.
Half a month after the wedding, Li Fenglan became even more withdrawn. In the past few days, she occasionally called Jade and the others to go shopping. In the past few days, she had not left the house very much, let alone communicated with others.
Jade finally couldn't stand Li Fenglan's unreasonable depression.
In the afternoon, Feicui came to Li Fenglan's courtyard and knocked on the door, but no one answered. She simply opened the door and went in, only to find Li Fenglan sitting at the stone table in the yard, thinking about something.
Jade was a little angry: "Can't you hear me knocking on the door?"
Li Fenglan replied listlessly: "I heard it."
"What's going on with you these days? Did you encounter anything troublesome?"
"No."
He put on an expression of being repulsive, which made Jade even more angry.
"There must be something wrong with you. It started in Jiujiang, and it became even worse after arriving in Yangzhou. What's going on with you? You don't care about what's going on around you, and you lock yourself in the house every day."
Li Fenglan said: "Because there is nothing I want to care about."
Jade sat at the stone table and tried to keep her tone calm: "It's July, it's been a full year since we left the valley."
"I know."
"I can understand if you don't have a clue...but..."
"Jade, I don't want to talk."
"Then when do you want to say it?"
"have no idea."
Jade's finally calmed down mood was once again angered by Li Fenglan: "Liu Dun is gone."
"Just leave."
"He went to find Mu Yun."
"Go ahead, I didn't stop her."
"Li Fenglan!" Jade finally got angry, "Who provoked you?"
"no one."
"Do I believe it? Are you a child? Are you still willful? Why don't you tell me what's wrong with you?"
Li Fenglan turned to look at Jade, sighed, and said: "Jade, I feel... there is no truth around me, it's all lies, and everyone is lying to me. So I don't want to talk... I say this, can you understand?"
"Who is lying to you? Bai Shuyu? Li Fengyao?"
"There are two of them, but it's not just them."
"What about me and Amber? Do we both lie to you too?"
Li Fenglan's expression became serious. She stared into Jade's eyes and said slowly: "Not necessarily."
Jade stood up and asked loudly: "Then tell me! How did I lie to you?!"
"Jade, tell me, when did Bai Shuyu arrive in Yangzhou?"
After saying this, Jade couldn't help being stunned. Li Fenglan's look didn't look like she was joking or complaining, but... she regarded herself as an outsider. She was not questioning Li Fenglan, but Li Fenglan was questioning her.
Jade was stunned for a long time and replied: "I'm not lying to you."
"Isn't this a lie?"
"You left Luoyang without saying goodbye. Bai Shuyu just wanted to scare you and had no other intention."
"He has been following me from Jiujiang to Yangzhou. Guess what his purpose is? Jade, you don't trust me."
Jade felt that Li Fenglan was a little unreasonable: "What purpose could he have? It's just that he's afraid that you won't be able to make up your mind. I don't trust you? When did I not trust you?"
"If you trust me, why do you have to ask Bai Shuyu every time something happens? Isn't it hard for the two of you to meet in secret for such a long time?"
She still didn't mean to make fun of her, and she said this seriously. Jade felt that there seemed to be a layer between the two of them, which separated the two people far away.
Jade also stared into Li Fenglan's eyes without any flinching. After a long time, she suddenly turned around and left the yard.
Looking at Jade's leaving figure, Li Fenglan suddenly felt her nose sore. She had quarreled with Jade many times since she was a child, and they had many fights as a child, but she never took these things to heart. But it was different now. Everything in the past had undergone earth-shaking changes in her heart. The good ones have turned out to be hypocritical, and the bad ones have been fed back to the heart in an intensified manner.
They must all know it, the only one who doesn't know is himself.
Li Fenglan felt tired for no reason. She wanted to leave, but she didn't know where she could go.
I went back to the house and closed the door. It was a sultry July day.
I don't know how long I sat on the bed, but two hurried footsteps came from the small courtyard. Not long after, the door was pushed open, and Feicui pulled someone into the house.
The person she pulled was Bai Shuyu.
Jade pushed Bai Shuyu towards the middle of the room and said coldly: "Tell her yourself."
After saying that, he left the room alone, leaving Bai Shuyu standing in the middle of the room with an embarrassed look on his face.
Li Fenglan was not surprised. She raised her eyes and looked at Bai Shuyu without speaking.
Bai Shuyu scratched the back of his head: "Then what...I really have no other meaning..."
"You followed us to Hangzhou, didn't you notice?"
Bai Shuyu sighed: "I discovered it...but I don't think you can be too arbitrary. What if...what if Liu Yanlong doesn't remember it? It's been nineteen years, and it's normal to not remember it."
"Then why did he still not remember Li Fengyao when he mentioned it later? Isn't it difficult to forget my face?"
Bai Shuyu pulled up a chair and sat down: "At least it can prove that your mother is from Changfeng Tower."
"Then who is my mother?!" Li Fenglan's emotions finally broke out, "Why did you lie to me?! Why did you lie to me that she was Li Fengyao's daughter! Is my mother so shameless? Is she dead or gone?! Why not? Someone told me?!”
"How do I know this? Isn't that Fu Yanhe in Yangzhou? Ask him, he must know."
"You think they will tell me?! They lied to me for nineteen years! I just asked them and told them?! Maybe... Jade knows this, Amber knows this, even you know this! You don't tell me! Take advantage of it!" I'll help you get revenge! Hide Li Fengyao's real daughter! Use this to contain her! I'm just a tool! Who knows what you will do to me in the future!"
Bai Shuyu was speechless.
Li Fenglan continued to yell: "And that Li Yuzhuo! Why are you pretending to be intimate with me? She even said she was half my mother! I understand! No wonder Li Fengyao said 'I see' when she first met me in Yaoxian Valley ', no wonder Li Yuzhuo said the same thing! They all know that my identity is fake! They are also happy to see me being deceived!"
Bai Shuyu advised: "Calm down first... I guarantee that Jade and Amber don't know, and they will never lie to you. You don't believe anyone now, and it's easy to misunderstand. If you are like this, you cooperate with me, and I will help you investigate. How about just pretending that you don’t know all this despite your life experience?”
"Why don't I know my own affairs? Why should I trust you?! Bai Shuyu! Since we met in Luoyang last year, you haven't trusted me since that day! You hid the true strength of the Bai family from me! How many people in your family You didn’t tell me when a side branch returned! You have never trusted me! Why should I trust you?!”
Bai Shuyu explained helplessly: "I don't trust you a little, and I am a little worried about you, but that was only last year. We have experienced life and death together, and you let Jade save me. I, Bai Shuyu, am not a coward. . Yes, I admit that I sometimes do whatever it takes to achieve my goals, but I have never harmed you. I didn’t tell you because I know you know, that’s all.”
"If you didn't say it, that's cheating!"
"Can you stop being so unreasonable?"
Li Fenglan got so angry that she picked up the tea bowl on the bedside table and threw it at Bai Shuyu's head.
Before Bai Shuyu could hide, he saw a flash of green light in front of him, and a woman in green appeared in front of him and caught the thrown tea bowl.
Jade stared at Li Fenglan coldly: "Have you had enough trouble?"
"No!"
Jade casually threw the tea bowl on the ground and pulled Bai Shuyu out of the house, leaving Li Fenglan angry alone in the house.
Jade walked very fast, and Bai Shuyu reluctantly followed. He asked: "Jade, how much did you hear about the conversation between me and her?"
"It starts with you saying that you are not a wolf-hearted person."
"Where's the front?"
"did not hear."
Bai Shuyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Jade suddenly shook off Bai Shuyu's hand, turned around and stared into his eyes, asking, "What did you two say? Why was she so angry that she hit you with a tea bowl?"
Bai Shuyu thought for a moment: "It's nothing, she doesn't trust me and thinks I will harm her, that's all."
"Yeah?"
"yes."
"Then will you harm her?"
"Won't."
Just as Jade was about to say something, she heard the sound of breaking things coming from Li Fenglan's house. She looked at the lonely little courtyard, closed her eyes and thought for a while, muttering to herself: "It's not like she has been in the past few days, why is she crazy?"
Bai Shuyu asked: "What's not going on these days?"
"nothing."
After saying that, he pulled Bai Shuyu away again.
…
All the porcelain in the room was smashed, and the shelves, tables, chairs and benches were not spared either. The angry Li Fenglan didn't stop until there was nothing left to smash in the room.
It was dark, and no one came to see her in the room, not even Amber, who was always considerate.
Yes, they will definitely not come. The lie has been exposed and there is no need for them to keep pretending.
Li Fenglan sat on the bed holding her legs, looking at the mess all over the room, and couldn't help but shed tears.
The person in the painting hanging in Qin Peiran's room is herself, or in other words, her mother. Liu Yanlong had met Li Fengyao and was familiar with her, but he didn't recognize him when he first saw her. This shows that she has no resemblance to Li Fengyao before she was disfigured, and she is not his biological mother at all.
No wonder she was indifferent to him, no wonder she put herself in danger. She was not her biological daughter, so why should she protect her?
There were so many people in Chaolan Valley, they must have seen the woman in the painting, but no one told him the truth. Everything in the past was fake and untrue. She is like mother and daughter with Chen Yi, and like father and daughter like Mo Changfeng and Zhou Xiao. Every elder in Chaolan Valley is very kind to me. When I met Fu Yanhe a few days ago, although he taught me a lesson, that was also The care of the elders for the younger ones. Jade and Amber grew up together with him, like biological sisters. I don't know who they heard the truth from, but they have been acting with him all these years.
Fake, all fake.
No matter which direction you look from, Mu Yun and Chen Wu are both Si Ye, they can't be anyone else. Even the person I most want to believe is no longer real.
Li Fenglan suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling of loneliness, like a canary kept in a cage, being teased, thinking she was a member of the family.
It was late at night, and with the crescent moon hanging high in the sky, she thought it was best to leave.
