"Ning Ning!" Jiang Lanxi was stunned and walked quickly to her side.
"Girl Ning." Chen Wenxiong stood up on crutches and looked at her with eyes full of love and nostalgia.
"Mr. Chen, I'm sorry but I don't want to." Ye Qingning grabbed the shoulder strap of her schoolbag, her heart seemed to be pinched by a pair of hands.
"Why?" Chen Wenxiong couldn't help but take a step forward.
"Since I have been abandoned..."
"Abandon it? How is that possible!" Chen Wenxiong's tone was full of shock, and the crutch in his hand hit the ground three times.
"That nurse picked up Ning Ning in the bathroom." It was precisely because of this that Ye Shaohua never mentioned finding Ye Qingning's biological parents.
"This...how is this possible!" Chen Wenxiong's cloudy eyes were full of disbelief.
"That nurse had no reason to lie to us. Our daughter was lost to her. There was no need to make up another lie to deceive us." Ye Shaohua explained.
It was precisely because of this that Jiang Lanxi was so excited when she learned that Chen Wenxiong wanted to recognize Ye Qingning. She held Ye Qingning's hand and patted it, silently giving her a hint of comfort.
"Back then, your mother threatened to die and tried her best to save you. How could she abandon you? I just went out to get water and came back, but your mother disappeared. When we found her, she was covered in blood. In the corridor of the hospital, and you were gone. When she woke up and found that you were gone, something was completely wrong with her. "
Both sides insist on their own opinions, but no one knows the truth.
Ye Qingning looked at Chen Wenxiong and knew that he was not lying. What happened back then was like a fog, and everyone was trapped in it, unable to find a real way out.
She was confused for a moment and didn't know how to react.
"Ning Yatou, if you are willing, can you go to a place with me on Saturday? It's not too late to make a decision after you go." Chen Wenxiong's tone was sincere, his back was raised, but there was a trace of sadness, which made people unable to bear to refuse.
She looked at Jiang Lanxi, who looked at her with gentle and encouraging eyes. "Ning Ning, my mother will support you no matter what you do, just don't let yourself regret it."
Ye Qingning pursed her lips and looked at Chen Wenxiong.
"Okay." If she was not abandoned, then she at least wanted to pursue the truth.
"Okay, then I'll pick you up on Saturday." Chen Wenxiong also breathed a sigh of relief, and his tone became much more relaxed.
After sending Chen Wenxiong away, Ye Qingning sat alone on the balcony for a long time and didn't eat dinner. Ye An couldn't stand it anymore, so he took a bowl of noodles and entered Ye Qingning's room.
"I have no appetite." Ye Qingning looked at Ye An helplessly.
"You've just been discharged from the hospital and you want to go in?" Ye An's attitude was not very good.
Ye Qingning knew he was in the wrong and took a few symbolic bites. Ye An pulled up a chair and sat next to her, "What do you think?"
Ye Qingning put down his chopsticks, "I originally thought that if I was abandoned, then I wouldn't care no matter what the reason was, because it can't change the fact that they abandoned me."
"But that doesn't seem to be the case." Ye Qingning has always been entangled in his own affairs.
"See it with your own eyes, and then believe what you think in your heart, and don't be swayed by anyone's words." Ye An's heart is always stronger than everyone else.
"What kind of person would my biological mother be? Do I look like her?" Ye Qingning still couldn't help but think about it.
Ye An glanced at her, "You are you, never anyone else."
Ye Qingning blinked and looked at her, the corners of his mouth raised slightly. The tips of Ye An's ears turned red quietly, but his face looked impatient. She put the chopsticks into Ye Qingning's hand, "Eat quickly!"
The tone couldn't be said to be very good, but Ye Qingning felt that he was in a much better mood.
She liked Ye An's nonchalant expression very much, it was very funny. It was also a little unknown interest in her quiet and well-behaved life.
Soon, it was Saturday. Chen Wenxiong came to pick up Ye Qingning at the agreed time, and she had made preparations early.
Ye An was held down by Ye Qingning, and he chose her clothes for the whole night. In the morning, Jiang Lanxi also braided Ye Qingning's hair, making her look like a little princess.
She sat in the car, her hands unconsciously clutching the hem of her skirt. Ye An knocked on the car door, bringing Ye Qingning back from his thoughts.
"Call me if you have anything, I don't have to train today."
Ye Qingning suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, her mouth curved and her eyes bright. She nodded and waved goodbye to Ye An like a Disney princess. When he first arrived in the car and left, Ye Ancai put his hands behind his back.
Turning around, he saw Jiang Lanxi still frozen in place. She patted Jiang Lanxi's shoulder, her movements a little stiff and uncomfortable.
"Let's go." Jiang Lanxi smiled at her and held Ye An's hand.
Ye An, who had never enjoyed maternal love in 16 years, didn't know what to say at this moment and silently held her back.
In the car, Chen Wenxiong and Ye Qingning sat in the back row together, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
"Girl Ning, you... be mentally prepared."
Chen Wenxiong's reminder made Ye Qingning full of doubts and became even more uneasy.
After getting out of the car, Ye Qingning looked at the words "sanitarium" and felt uneasy. She said nothing and followed Chen Wenxiong. He led Ye Qingning to turn left and right with ease. From time to time, staff members passing by would greet him and take care of him. It seemed that he came here often.
"Girl Ning, inside is my daughter, Chen Xi."
Ye Qingning looked through the glass window at a woman holding a stuffed doll, talking softly, and shaking the toy in her hand from time to time.
Ye Qingning froze on the spot. She had a strong consciousness that the woman inside was her biological mother. No basis, no reason, that's what she confirmed.
"she……"
"She has been like this since the child was lost."
When Ye Qingning was thinking of words, Chen Wenxiong took the lead in answering her question.
"Just wait a moment. I'll go in and say a few words. Then come in after I wave."
Ye Qingning nodded obediently, and after seeing what Chen Wenxiong said to Chen Xi through the glass window, the two of them looked at her together. Ye Qingning was a little at a loss, but still raised his hand as a response.
Chen Wenxiong said something again, but the other party stopped listening and was immersed in his own world. Seeing this, Chen Wenxiong sighed. For some reason, Ye Qingning felt that he seemed to have suddenly aged a bit, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
But the next second, Chen Wenxiong smiled again when he looked at her, full of love. He waved to Ye Qingning, who confirmed it, opened the door and walked in after receiving a positive answer.
"Xiao Xi, this is Qingning. Do you think she looks a lot like you?"
Chen Wenxiong used a coaxing tone to coax this woman who was nearly 40 years old, but could still see the beauty of her youth.
"Hello, my name is Ye Qingning." Ye Qingning was a little embarrassed.
