Chapter 278: He's Here (1st Update)
It's been a few days since she returned to her hometown, and Su Xiaoran feels more relaxed and comfortable than ever. She didn't do anything these days, except for sleeping mostly at home, and occasionally went out for a walk, shuttling through the city of reinforced concrete buildings, feeling the memories that had long since passed.
Mother is happy, maybe it really responds to that sentence, when people are old, they want to return to their roots, and only by living in their hometown can they experience truth and existence.
As for why Su Xiaoran suddenly resigned and came back, and why he didn't mention the name Chenxi anymore, the two elders of the Su family didn't say a word, either they didn't care at all, or they already knew the truth.
Su Xiaoran understood that her parents must have seen the clue, but they couldn't bear to mention it again when they saw her sad.
If it can go on like this, it will be a good start, but here he is.
One gray afternoon, he suddenly knocked on their door and stood at the door, reserved and polite.
This 'he' is not Chenxi, but Hua Yan's father, in other words, Su Xiaoran's biological father.
Su Xiaoran was extremely surprised and extremely unwelcome of his sudden visit, Hua was the part she was most reluctant to recall, but she was disturbed before she had a few days of peace
。
"I can...... Do you want to go in? Father Hua looked much haggard than a few days ago, and Su Xiaoran found that he had been blocking the door and was stunned for a long time.
"Xiao Ran, who's coming?"
Inside the house, Su's mother's loud voice came, she was wiping Su's father's body, and together with the sound of the TV at home, there was a warm smell of home. Su Xiaoran avoided Father Hua's eyes, pulled the door with one hand and was about to close it: "You are not welcome here." ”
"I have something to tell you!"
Father Hua blocked the door, and a pair of eager eyes were placed on Su Xiaoran's face. And his mouth was twitching, I don't know whether he was excited or sad.
"There's not much to say." Su Xiaoran still insisted on closing the door, but unfortunately, Su's mother, who heard the sound, walked out of the back room and saw the flower father standing at the door.
Su's mother's expression was very surprised, of course she remembered Su's father, although she had only seen it once or twice, but she firmly remembered his face.
Between his eyebrows and Su Xiaoran are exactly the same, some sad and some mysterious.
"Excuse me, I'm looking for ...... You guys. Father Hua put his position very low, and Su's mother turned her head to look at Su Xiaoran, but saw that she bowed her head and was silent.
"Come in!"
Mother Su took the initiative to open the door and let Father Hua in, Mother Su looked at her in surprise, but she took Su Xiaoran's hand and went in.
"I'm going to make a cup of tea, please take a seat!"
Su's mother was polite and thoughtful, she first closed the door of Su's father's room, and then hurriedly went into the kitchen to make tea and get some fruit.
Su Xiaoran was reluctant to sit down, and stood on the edge of the cabinet on the side, with a defensive posture. And the flower father, he looked around at the furnishings in this house, it was simple, clean, but also warm. It's the appearance of an ordinary person.
It turned out that his daughter grew up in such an environment...... It turned out that in a certain corner of the world, there was still one of his daughters......
He really didn't know anything before, but all these years, he came over in a trance.
Father Hua looked up at Su Xiaoran, and the more he looked, the more he felt that she was his daughter, and that sad appearance and indifferent eyes were not the rebellious appearance of his youth?
"Tea, please."
Su's mother was very polite, Father Hua held the teacup, warmed it in the palm of his hand, looked at Su Xiaoran, and said, "Why did you move here?" ”
"It's none of your business, if it's okay, please leave as soon as possible, you're not welcome in our family."
"Xiao Ran! You can't talk like that. ”
Mother Su paused, and then said to Father Hua: "I welcome you to come, but please don't disturb my daughter's life." If you want to talk, just talk, and when you're done, please leave on your own. ”
After speaking, he looked at Su Xiaoran uneasily, and then went into the room, leaving only their father and daughter in the living room.
"I ...... I'm here to apologize to you. Father Hua pondered for a long time and said.
"I don't need to apologize."
"All these years...... I really didn't know you existed, and if I knew, I would ......"
Father Hua choked up, he didn't know whether to be happy or sad. He had just lost a daughter, but he found out that he had another daughter.
What has he done all these years?
In front of him, he is a child who looks exactly the same as Xiao Meng, the only difference is ...... She was very cold to herself, as if she ...... There is nothing but annoyance.
Su Xiaoran didn't want to hear any old things, and he didn't want to see a man who had never appeared in his life apologize to him, talking about his embarrassment and mistakes. None of this matters!
"When you're done, you're good to go." Su Xiaoran gave the eviction order again, and Father Hua looked at her blankly, and only said after a while: "You...... Would you like to go back with me? I will make it up to you, and from now on, I will not let anyone hurt you again. ”
Su Xiaoran suddenly felt the urge to laugh, and even, the corners of her mouth should have revealed a light smile.
Get back? Make up for?
How to get back? What to make up for?
It's late.
Su Xiaoran walked to the door, opened the door, and the cold wind waited for an opportunity to run in, her tone was as cold as the weather.
"If you really want to make amends to me, please don't show up in my life again."
"Do you hate me so much? I said, I never knew you existed, I"
"I don't hate you, and I don't have any feelings for you. As you can see, my parents and I are doing well now, we are living happily ever after, and we don't want to be disturbed by anyone anymore. Mr. Hua, if you still have a little bit of conscience, please leave. ”
After Su Xiaoran finished speaking, she turned her head directly to look outside, she didn't want to make eye contact with the man in front of her, which made her very uncomfortable.
Father Hua put down the teacup in his hand and stood up, his voice trembling, hoarse and helpless.
"In that case...... Then I don't have much more to say. This...... It's my business card, if you have any difficulties in the future, feel free to look for me. ”
As he spoke, he took out a business card from his jacket and put it on the coffee table, then took another look at the house, walked out of the door, looked at Su Xiaoran reluctantly, and left ruthlessly.
It's like he hasn't been here, the room is quiet again, if it weren't for the cup of cold tea, if it wasn't for the business card that couldn't be ignored, Su Xiaoran really wanted to think that he had never been here.
That's how nice.
Why come? Why disturb the quiet environment she had worked so hard to build? She didn't want to ask, to investigate, she just wanted to forget.
……
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Su's mother came out of the room. She glanced at the business card on the table, picked it up and looked at it, and then looked at Su Xiaoran, who was sitting on the side, "Didn't say anything?" ”
"Nope. Mom, throw it away! Su Xiaoran saw her mother holding her father's business card in her hand, and she was very repulsed.
"Why did you throw it away, he is your father after all, Xiao Ran, come here."
Mother Su beckoned, Su Xiaoran reluctantly sat over, Mother Su put her hand on her shoulder, as if recalling something a long, long time ago, and said, "This is for you." ”
Su's mother took out a necklace from her pocket like magic, Su Xiaoran took it, the necklace is very small, it is a small pendant-like pattern, and there seems to be a pattern engraved in the amber glass, if you look closely, it is a lot of small white flowers, very beautiful and cute.
"This is ......"
Su Xiaoran turned her head and looked at her mother in surprise, Su's mother had a kind smile on her face, "This is something that you wore around your neck when you were first sent." At that time, you were very young, and you always liked to cry, but when you saw it, you stopped crying, and it was amazing. It's just that when you grew up, your father and I were afraid that you would know your background when you touched this thing, so we hid it. Xiao Ran, you also saw it, Hua ...... I didn't completely deny your existence, this necklace should be a symbol of their family. I know it's not appropriate to talk about it now, but where is the time when it's really right? Although, the mother has never really had her own child in her life, but you have given the mother the experience of being a parent. Believe me, no parent in the world would ruthlessly abandon their children, and if there really is, then there must be a last resort. ”
Mother Su said, her eyes were already moist, and she handed the necklace to Su Xiaoran's hand, as if completing a solemn ceremony.
Su Xiaoran spread out the palm of his hand, looking at the thing in his hand that symbolized the family symbol, and didn't know whether it was joy or sadness.
Maybe it's been so old that she's forgotten the necklace exists. And now, when she held it in her hand again, there was an inexplicable urge in her heart.
……
Hua's Villa.
The flower mother who lost her beloved daughter is like losing her soul, she has been lying in bed for two days and two nights and is unwilling to get up, her life, calling for wind and rain, but at this time suddenly fell silent, as if everything had stopped abruptly.
Hua Yan went upstairs with the food again, knocked on the door, and then walked in.
He put the food on the bedside table, sat down, looked at his mother's empty eyes, and said, "Mom, let's eat a little, if you don't eat again, you will have stomach problems." ”
The Mother of Flowers did not answer, and turned her head to the other side.
Hua Yan knew her temper, but no matter how difficult it was, he had to give it a try.
He stretched out his hand and wanted to help her up, but this inadvertent action suddenly angered the flower mother, her face changed suddenly, and she was furious: "What are you doing!" ”
"Mom, I'...... I'll help you up and get something to eat. ”
Hua Yan was startled, but still tried to calm down and said.
Hua Mu stretched out her hand to overturn all the food on the side, and her tone was so cold that she was ruthless: "Take your things and get out, don't pretend to act here!" ”
