Chapter 396: The Black Hands (2)

Xing'er originally wanted to tell her mother the truth, but after hearing her voice, her mother still looked at her with blank eyes, the expression on her face did not change at all, and her eyes did not even blink, as if she had not heard her words at all.

Apricot took two more steps forward and walked in front of her mother, opening her mouth and just about to speak, her mother suddenly reacted, her eyes blinked, and her gaze slowly moved on Apricot's face.

Apricot stood there, furious at the look she had in her eyes.

After half a ring, the mother looked at Xing'er's face fixedly, moved her lips slightly, and said in a whisper-like voice, "It's really like...... Why didn't I find ......?"

Xing'er didn't know the meaning of her mother's words, but subconsciously, she knew that her mother must have said that she was very similar to her biological mother, and Xing'er began to worry a little about what her mother cared about, no matter what, she was the child of her rival, even if she was not related to her father, her mother would hate herself, right?

However, Xing'er felt that she still needed to explain to her mother, she took a deep breath before pulling out a smile at her mother and said, "Mom, actually, this is how this ......"

However, before Xing'er finished her sentence, Aunt Xiao suddenly interrupted her coldly and said hysterically: "No, I'm not your mother, don't call me mother......"

When Aunt Xiao said this, the expression on her face was very disgusted, as if the person standing in front of her was not the daughter she had raised for twenty years, but her rival in love, the rival in love who had robbed her of the man.

When Xing'er saw her mother's expression, she suddenly felt a pain in her heart, she called her mother for twenty years, why did she suddenly not want to be her mother?

Apricot suddenly felt abandoned, her eyes were sore, and a tear quietly slipped down the corner of her eye.

After Aunt Xiao said this, she suddenly turned around and walked upstairs.

After a short hesitation, Xing'er quickly chased after her, shouting as she chased, "Mom, I have something to tell you......"

However, Aunt Xiao suddenly quickened her pace as if she was afraid of being caught up by her.

Xing'er saw that her mother was more excited, and she was even more anxious, in order to let her clear up the misunderstanding as soon as possible, she chased after her and said loudly behind her: "Mom, you listen to my explanation, in fact, I have no blood relationship with my father, and I am not his biological daughter at all, please believe me, okay?" ā€

However, Aunt Xiao didn't listen to Xing'er at all, she quickly went up to the second floor, and immediately disappeared in front of Xing'er's eyes.

Xing'er suddenly quickened her pace and chased after her, her impatient appearance was like when she was a child, every time her mother wanted to go out, she would pester her, crying while chasing after her mother.

At that time, the mother had obviously gone away, but when she saw the crying Xing'er, she always couldn't bear to leave like that, and every time she would turn back, pick up the apricot, comfort her for a while, and if it still didn't work, she would simply take her out with her.

But this time, the mother left very resolutely, without the slightest hesitation, turned around and disappeared.

Xing'er thought that her mother must have gone back to her room, so she first walked to the door of her mother's room and knocked lightly, but no one responded, so she reached out and pushed the door open and walked in.

There's no one in the room, huh, where the hell has my mother gone? Why not in the room?

Xing'er looked around the room, but still didn't see anyone about her, so she had to walk out of the room and look around the living room.

There is still no mother.

Xing'er couldn't help but feel a little lost, and she was in a good mood, but she gradually became depressed, did her mother hate herself like this?

Apricot stood at the staircase for a moment, then returned downstairs with heavy steps.

The living room downstairs is still empty, my father and brother haven't come back yet, my brother obviously said that he would come back early, why haven't they come back yet?

Xing'er looked around, and the huge house was as quiet as if there was no one, but there were obviously people in this room, and there were two people, but Xing'er felt that this room was lifeless.

Her gaze fell on the living room for a moment, on the coffee table with the newspaper, and then slowly moved away to the dining room.

On the table in the restaurant, there are many dishes, and there are two bottles of wine and a birthday cake next to them.

Today's day is obviously her birthday, but Xing'er doesn't feel the atmosphere of the birthday at all.

Xing'er stood there for a moment, and then walked slowly to the table, looked at the dishes on the table, and started to make a flute.

At that time, even if her father and brother were busy, they would leave their work behind and come back to have dinner with her, she had already called her brother in the afternoon, and her brother clearly said that he would come back as soon as he was busy with the matter at hand, but it had been several hours, why hadn't my brother come back yet?

And her father, usually, her father would always come home early, but it's past dinner time today, why hasn't her father come back yet?

Xing'er stood at the table, looking at the sumptuous dishes on the table, feeling very strange, these dishes, at a glance, knew that they were from the nanny's hand, not made by her mother.

Although her mother is not very good at cooking, every time it is Xing'er's birthday, she will personally take charge of the spoon and cook a few dishes for Xing'er, even if those dishes are not very delicious, but they can be eaten in Xing'er's mouth, but they are more delicious than any mountain and sea delicacies in the world, because there is a mother's taste in it.

Xing'er raised her head again and glanced at the clock on the wall of the living room, it was almost eight o'clock, her father and brother had not returned, and her mother was hiding from her, could it be that her twentieth birthday was destined to be spent alone?

A wry smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Xing'er's mouth, and then, she slowly sat down in her chair, opened a bottle of wine, poured herself a large glass, and raised her head to drink the wine.

Xing'er didn't know how many glasses of wine she had drunk, and then, she suddenly felt dizzy, and her eyes gradually became blurry, she stretched out her hand, picked up the wine bottle and just wanted to pour herself another drink, when she suddenly heard a strange noise from upstairs.

Is the mother down? Is she finally willing to come downstairs to celebrate her birthday?

Apricot's low mood suddenly became excited, she raised her head, opened her confused drunken eyes, and slowly looked up the stairs.

But there was nothing on the stairs, what about the mother?

No, today is her birthday, her twentieth birthday, she must be blessed by her mother, a resentment suddenly rose in Xing'er's heart, and then, holding a wine bottle in one hand and two wine glasses in the other, she struggled to get up from her chair and walked towards the stairs crookedly......
