Xie Luan.
She was… her biological mother.
Gu Yan didn’t get to see Xie Luan in her past life since she arrived in the main city two years later. At the time, Xie Luan had already been sent abroad for her treatment.
Later on, due to her severe illness, Xie Luan had been comatose.
She had been in a… vegetative state.
During this time, Gu Yan’s mind flashed with bitterness and panic.
She immediately said, “Wait a moment, after I finish up here, I’ll go and visit her. Her body is still weak after all.”
“That works too. This bottle of glucose will finish in about 20 minutes. I have something else to do. I’ll come back later to pull the needle for you.”
“Thank you.”
Gu Yan eyed the nurse off. Now, she was the only person left in this four-patient ward.
‘Mom…’
This word was too unfamiliar to Gu Yan who had already undergone two lifetimes…
In the past, she felt puzzled why Zhang Lan treated her badly, thinking it was her fault for being an unlikable daughter.
After learning her true identity, Gu Yan never thought about how she would react upon seeing her real mother, Xie Luan, in this life.
She became worried and nervous, as well as a little bit resentful.
However, now wasn’t the best time to reveal her identity. Without absolute proof and evidence, she wouldn’t be able to pummel Bai Weiyang into dust with one go.
Hence… should she pretend to be a stranger next to Xie Luan and talk to her?
It was too difficult.
She could be calm in front of Bai Changle and hide her hostility in front of Bai Weiyang.
Even if Commander Bai appeared before her, she would just consider him as a stern superior.
Gu Yan had come into contact with them quite a lot in her past life.
But Xie Luan was different.
Gu Yan didn’t get to meet her prior to her rebirth.
Just then, she almost went crazy upon getting a glimpse of her.
“If I grew up next to you… it would have been perfectly wonderful, right?”
Gu Yan slowly closed her eyes and engraved the gentle appearance of Xie Luan deep into her mind. She pulled out her needle and got off the bed.
She then took her books with her and left the ward.
She walked away from the hospital step by step. That meant, she also left Xie Luan.
Gu Yan could feel her eyes itch while her nose experienced a burning sensation.
She sniffed and looked up. After a while, she finally suppressed the urge to cry.
However, the sadness gradually ripened in her heart.
By the time Gu Yan quickly left the hospital, the nurse had arrived at Xie Luan’s room.
Bai Changle was inside too. He said worriedly, “Mom, you really scared me. When Aunty called me, I was almost scared witless. Don’t walk by yourself next time. If you want to buy a book, just tell me.”
“I’m fine now.” Xie Luan reassured him with a smile. She shook her head. “Changle, you’re so big now. You still get so worked up.”
“No matter how big I am, I’m still your child.” Bai Changle sat down on the bed and said, “By the way, is the girl who carried you out of the snow alright? We really need to thank her for this time.”
“Yes.” Xie Luan remembered that when she saw the girl, she felt some kind of strong connection between them. In fact, she could no longer look away for some reason.
