The girl is thin-skinned. She doesn't want to admit it, so she doesn't admit it. Yan Zhenli is always more considerate to Gu Chengcheng than to her own son, and of course she always follows suit.
"I haven't seen you all afternoon, and the door to your room is closed. Why did you sleep for so long?" Although you should rest more during pregnancy, it's not good to sleep too much. I heard that it's hard to give birth...
"No." Gu Chengcheng shook his head, looking rather frustrated: "It's almost the wedding ceremony, and my prototype is not ready yet. Even if I draw it later, I'm afraid it will be too late to do it."
Yan Zhenli is a designer herself, so she naturally knows that designing things takes the most energy. Gu Chengcheng is pregnant now, so how can she work so hard.
"No wonder you're in a bad mood." Yan Zhenli caressed the little girl's pink face, and every sentence Yan Zhenli said was pity.
"I'm fine..." I'm not very tired. If I can really restore my mother's design, what's the energy
Gu Chengcheng was thinking to himself, Yan Zhenli was also silent for a while, and then she seemed to decide something and pulled Gu Chengcheng: "Come with Auntie."
Yan Zhenli was a bit mysterious, and Gu Chengcheng followed suspiciously without asking, until the two of them stopped in front of a door.
The Mu family's old house is big and there are many guest rooms. Gu Chengcheng is not a child who likes to be mischievous and disrespectful. He has come to the old house so many times and has never wandered around, so she has never been to this room.
Yan Zhenli took the key to open the door, Gu Chengcheng saw her movements and knew that this room should not be casually entered by anyone on weekdays. It should be very important, otherwise, why would the hostess here lock it by herself.
Behind the claustrophobic door for a long time, the room was clean and tidy. Gu Chengcheng walked inch by inch against the light, and the moment his eyes fell in, he stared at the white snow in front of him, and then went down to every word that Yan Zhenli said. , she was in a trance as if in a dream.
Cheongsam-style buckle stand collar... Below are layers of slim fishtails...
Deja Vu.
Squinting his eyes, Gu Chengcheng only felt dazzling, and he couldn't open it, and deep in his memory, the sample draft finally overlapped with the wedding dress that was treasured in the glass cabinet in front of him.
The details that she couldn't remember after spending many days, on that waist... The tung tree flowers are embellished with natural crystals, and she remembered the words of her mother when she was young - the flower language is the beginning of love.
What a beautiful dream to weave, but at this moment, a hole was suddenly broken, looking down into the boundless darkness, Gu Chengcheng could hardly stand on the edge, and he was teetering.
That white gauze... The award time on the nameplate... Gu Chengcheng's face was as pale as never before, and she seemed to understand all of the many things in an instant.
Withdrawing her gaze, she looked at Yan Zhenli, and there was no more smile in her eyes.
Yan Zhenli had never noticed Gu Chengcheng's abnormality. She introduced this lifelong achievement, and every word of her tone was proud.
Turning her head, she was about to say something else, but when she met Gu Chengcheng's hateful eyes, Yan Zhenli was stunned.
Yan Zhenli had never seen such resentful and heart-piercing despair, and she couldn't laugh at all. She asked Gu Chengcheng, "You kid, your eyes are red from anger, what's wrong..."
Yeah...what happened to her? Gu Chengcheng also wanted to know what happened to him...
Obviously her parents' case has been solved, but at this moment, she wants to overthrow everything and start over.
How can there be such a coincidence in this world, the exact same design works, the time of winning the award is also after the accident of the parents, Gu Chengcheng does not believe it...
Not being able to say a complete sentence, Gu Chengcheng felt like a steel needle had been inserted into his heart, stabbing into the flesh and blood.
Unable to stay any longer, she left Yan Zhenli and left. For the whole afternoon that followed, Gu Chengcheng locked himself in the room without stepping out.
Her behavior was so strange, and her previous hatred was so obvious, Yan Zhenli couldn't possibly pretend that nothing had happened, but after thinking about the overall situation, she didn't know what the problem was.
Not daring to knock on the door rashly, Yan Zhenli wandered outside the room, while inside, Gu Chengcheng edited a line of words with trembling fingers and sent it to Yu Yuan.
She asked her parents' case to be reopened...
This is not a trivial matter. When Yu Yuan received this text message, his heart skipped a beat. He knew something must have happened, otherwise Gu Chengcheng would not have made such a request.
Yu Yuan was about to dial the phone to find out the reason, but Gu Chengcheng was exhausted both physically and mentally. She curled up and sat on the floor, leaning her head against the wall, she seemed to have lost the slightest bit of anger.
…
The weather has changed, and on the way of Mu Nanfeng driving to the old house of the Mu family.
In the afternoon, it was still overcast, but now the clouds are getting lower and lower, and there is not even a trace of warm light covering the sky and the sun. Mu Nanfeng keeps looking out the window, returning like an arrow.
What is his little girl doing at this moment
Mu Nanfeng was curious, and called Gu Chengcheng during the driving interval. There was a long series of beeps, but no one answered. Mu Nanfeng couldn't help frowning, and he stepped on the accelerator even harder.
As he drove all the way to the old house and passed the long tree-lined road, Mu Nanfeng's lips curved upward, even he didn't notice it.
But—the old house seems to be extraordinarily quiet today
After closing the car door, Mu Nanfeng stood outside in deep thought. Not to mention hearing the laughter of the little girl and her family.
He still thought so, just as he was about to lift his feet to go inside, there was a sharp "Boom--" above his head, Mu Nanfeng looked up subconsciously, the black piece was shining directly above him, and the storm was about to come.
Almost at that moment, Mu Nanfeng felt that there was something different, and before he could think about it, he hurried inside and greeted Yan Zhenli before he reached the door.
Mu Haifan hadn't come back yet, Yan Zhenli had been distracted all afternoon, and she didn't dare to call and say something to Mu Nanfeng easily.
"Nanfeng, I, I..." He couldn't say a word in a hurry. At that time, Mu Nanfeng no longer had a smile on his face, interrupting Yan Zhenli's hesitation, he blurted out and asked, "Where's Chengcheng?"
"upstairs…"
Not wanting to wait for more words, Mu Nanfeng hurried over, as if it was just a blink of an eye, and he pushed open the door that Yan Zhenli dared not enter no matter how many times she wandered that afternoon.
The light upstairs was also not turned on, but it was darker than the light on the first floor. Mu Nanfeng searched in the darkness for a while before finding Gu Chengcheng's figure. She huddled in front of the desk, a small group.
The little girl was so quiet that she couldn't even feel her breathing. Mu Nanfeng's heart tightened for a moment, and he raised his hand to light up the whole room.
