Bai Yu'an is only fourteen years old, in the prime of cardamom, but in the field of sports, he has an extraordinary talent.

Now she is a national first-class athlete, ranked 42nd in the aT International Women's Professional Tennis Federation, and won the bronze medal in the women's singles tennis at the Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games, and has won a total of five gold, nine silver and 17 bronze medals in various world-class competitions, national leagues and provincial competitions.

For most ordinary people, Bai Yu'an's ability is enough for his peers to look up to.

But for her current family background, this achievement is nothing at all, and Bai Yu'an, who is in adolescence, is often troubled by this.

The reason for this troublesome is that she has a mother who is too good. Parents who are too good will always bring an inexplicable and wonderful growth pressure to their children.

However, recently, Bai Yu'an's troubles have been replaced by another kind of present, and even made her feel a sense of fear.

Taking advantage of her mother's visit to Moscow these days, she sneaked into her mother's room, ready to verify her guesses for days.

"No one else has been in my mother's room for a long time. ”

Bai Yu'an held a small round key in his hand, lightly touched the blue light spot on it, and turned off all the monitoring in his mother's bedroom and the surrounding area.

For the sake of safety, such a luxury house is naturally equipped with surveillance cameras, and it is very intelligent, even if outsiders violently break into here, after being identified by the surveillance, they will immediately close all the explosion-proof alloy doors inside, and lock the intruder in a small space.

But this is difficult to overcome Bai Yu'an's privilege as the eldest lady of the Bai family, as long as she says a few coquettish words to the housekeeper's sister, she can get the key to her mother's bedroom.

The corridor leading to his mother's bedroom is not long, but there is no light response, so the corridor looks particularly dark and deep, Bai Yu'an felt a little nervous inexplicably, but thinking that he was just going to his mother's bedroom to have a look, this tension immediately faded again.

Passing through the corridor, you will pass an indoor potted area, which has been specially designed to freshen the air in the house and serve as a decoration.

But at this time, the potted area is also only dimly lit, you know... It's daylight!

"Something is wrong. Although it was the beginning of autumn, the weather in the south was still relatively hot, but after entering the potted area, Bai Yu'an felt a chill inexplicably, "These plants... Most of them are dead. ”

These plants have a special circulatory system to take care of, light, water and humidity are very reasonable, even if they suffer from insect disease, there are no pollution and no harm agents spilled, more accurate than manual without error, it is impossible to wither and die for no reason.

And even if something goes wrong with the system and causes the plants to wither and rot, there will still be people to repair and replace them, so how can they let this large area of withered plants go unattended?

Bai Yu'an was a little curious, and the tension that had faded before came back up, and she leaned closer to look at the few clusters of withered roses not far away.

The petals have turned completely black, curled up without moisture, but there is no sense of decay in the connecting stems and leaves, as if all life has been sucked away, not like natural withering.

She reached out and touched it, and the withered rose made a crisp sound, and then directly turned into a faint dust and flew away, disappearing in an instant.

Faced with such a situation, Bai Yu'an was so frightened that he took a small step back and looked at somewhere under his feet, but his pupils shrank slightly.

"Sure enough... My guess may not be wrong. She bent down and carefully picked up a piece of crystal clear from the ground, "Mother, she's hiding something from me. ”

She pinched the crystal clear thing hard, felt a faint burning sensation coming from it, and couldn't help but spread out her palms and quietly look at the things placed on it.

It was a crystal clear bone fragment, and it was also a phalange, although the shape of this bone fragment was not intact, but the girl could still distinguish it directly.

"Glazed jade bones. ”

After the speculation became a reality, Bai Yu'an seemed unusually calm.

This is not the first time she has picked up a similar bone, the last time she even picked up a complete phalanx bone in a flower bed near the villa.

If she hadn't gone to an antique appraisal agency to invite an expert, I'm afraid she wouldn't have been able to tell whether this was a jade collection or a real... Skeleton.

"I have checked some classics, and now the glazed jade bones have appeared in some Taoist and Buddhist classics. Just like the relics of the monks and the golden pills of the Taoist priests, they are all bone changes caused by advanced cultivation. Although there are real-life examples, many legends should have been invented by later generations..."

Bai Yu'an thought about it, since her mother's strange appearance last year, she began to secretly investigate.

As a teenager, because she was more exposed to the world, she had more mature thoughts and ideas than she looked.

She couldn't distinguish the facts from those books that didn't know the age, but she also vaguely understood that the glazed jade bone was definitely not something that ordinary people could have.

Could it be that there is some strange change in my mother?

"My mother is getting more and more beautiful, but I always feel... Her beauty is getting more and more bewitching. ”

Bai Yu'an remembered the appearance of her alcoholic mother sitting in the entrance in the early winter of last year, and the breath that spit out almost made the whole room form a white frost, especially when she held the other party's shoulder, she could see the almost translucent glass and jade bones under the thin dress.

Since then, no one has entered my mother's room, and even the surrounding area is forbidden to enter, even the housekeeper sister, who used to be in charge of my mother's food and daily life.

And I don't know if it's an illusion, sometimes in the middle of the night, Bai Yu'an will hear inexplicable female laughter when she is half asleep and half awake, sometimes crying, sometimes hoarse and sometimes sharp, coming slowly from a distance, there is an indescribable mystery.

Bai Yu'an looked at the jade bone fragment in her hand for a long time, and then pulled her thoughts back, she shook her head, and walked through this withered potted area, towards the deeper area.

Standing at the door of her mother's room, she took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to push the door open, prepared for whatever she would see.

Snap Tower –

The door was unlocked, and it was easily pushed open, and inside it was a very spacious room, but there was not much furniture, a double bed, several large wardrobes, a small sand, a dresser, and a large desk stacked with all kinds of books.

For ordinary families, such a level of bedroom space and furniture is already very good.

But for a big man who has occupied the Forbes rich list all year round, such a structure is extremely simple and simple, and it is far less luxurious than the bedroom where Bai Yu'an lives.

"I only put one cup. There was no expected terrifying picture, Bai Yu'an's heart relaxed again, her eyes wandered, she looked at the water glass placed on the desk in the distance, and suddenly sighed: "... It seems that the mother's marriage is not as happy as outsiders imagined. ”

Now than before, society is becoming more diverse and inclusive. Although my mother and Aunt Lin are both women, in the eyes of the world, they are already a pair of fairy couples, even after so many years, the wedding of the century between the two is still vivid.

Not to mention the love story of foreign legends, it is also mysterious. There are also some literati authors who have adapted works such as movies based on this.

But sometimes what you see on the surface is not the real content, how can outsiders know the specific situation inside your own home?

In this world, there are very few perfect things, just like people drinking water, knowing their own warmth and coldness.

"Aunt Lin rarely lives on her mother's side, and I don't know if they are separated. Bai Yu'an walked to the side of the bed and sat down, touched the pillow on the right, it was very smooth and new, and there were no wrinkles, indicating that Aunt Lin rarely came here to rest, and the absence of dust meant that her mother had been taking care of it, "Recently, Aunt Lin traveled to Amsterdam, and she only took Aunt Su with her." ”

Aunt Lin and Aunt Su treated her quite well, and she vaguely understood the relationship between the three, but this kind of elder matter did not have her share of being a daughter.

But even she can see that the relationship between Aunt Lin and Aunt Su is obviously better than that of her mother.

"Hmph!" Bai Yu'an always saw that the two aunts were uncomfortable, and now the more she thought about it, the more wrong she became, patted the pillow that she didn't use often, and just snorted coldly, "It's only been a few years since I got married, and I don't cherish my mother like this, sure enough, marriage is the grave of love, and I really don't feel worth it for my mother..."

Mother is a peerless beauty, no matter whether she is married to a man or a woman, she should be held in the palm of her hand to be protected, even if it is stained with a little dust, how can she often stay alone in the empty room like now, and even drink alcohol can only be poured by herself.

Thinking of this, Bai Yu'an felt a little pain in his heart, feeling aggrieved for his mother.

She stared, as if she sensed something, and went straight under the pillow.

There was something cold and cold, but the touch was different from the jade bone fragments, it was a little soft, and that special cold feeling made her retract her hand like an electric shock.

"Ahh

Such a strange situation made Bai Yu'an react instantly, she uncovered the pillow on it, and the thing that was scattered and cold fell into her eyes.

"It's... What is this?"

In the not-so-bright light, a scarlet rabbit clip was lying quietly on top of the sheets.

The two red rabbit eyes, as well as the slightly blood-colored curved smile, exuded an inexplicable eerie luster at this moment.

(Ho, things in this world are not as complete as everyone thinks.) Also, what exactly is a rabbit clip? ）
