The noodles were placed in front of Lin Nuan, still steaming hot. The red tomato and poached egg covered the noodles, and the soup was clear and bright.
Lin Nuan pulled her blow-dried hair back into a low ponytail. A few loose strands of hair hung down and were casually tucked behind her ears. She picked up the bowl of noodles and took a sip of the soup. It tasted good, even better than what Lin Nuan made.
"You like tomato and egg noodles a lot?"
Fu Huai 'an sat on the right side of Lin Nuan. He wanted to know more about Lin Nuan's diet, so he asked.
Lin Nuan paused in the act of drinking the soup. Her long and curly eyelashes drooped, and her clear eyes reflected the beautiful color of the bowl.
She said, "I don't really like it. It's probably because tomato and egg noodles are the only thing my birth mother made for me. I've been trying to imitate the taste of her food since then. Although I didn't succeed, it seems to have become a habit. Every time I want to make something to eat, I'll think of tomato and egg noodles."
It was the first time Lin Nuan told Fu Huai 'an something about herself. She was honest and didn't hide anything.
Tomato and egg noodles had a special meaning to Lin Nuan.
She remembered it was the first day of June. The sky was blue after the heavy rain, and the golden rays were dazzling.
Lin Nuan took her suitcase out of the Lins' house and went to the Furong Alley on Jiefang Road.
The alley was narrow and muddy.
A crazy woman covered in mud was grabbing a passing girl, crying and begging, "Ran Ran! Ran Ran … I'm not crazy, I'm not crazy … Come home with me! Come home with me! "
The girl screamed in fear. The neighbor who was entrusted to take care of the crazy woman grabbed her arm and shouted, "She's going to die! She's causing trouble when she can't keep an eye on her! She's not Ran Ran! You're scaring the girl to death! Let go! "
The girl was rescued from the crazy woman's hands, and she ran away in a panic with red eyes.
Lin Nuan stood at the entrance of the alley, wearing a white dress and carrying a light yellow shoulder bag. She was beautiful and exquisite, and she didn't fit in with the old gray alley.
In the alley, a few children were laughing and pulling each other while being scolded by the adults. They imitated the crazy woman and called Ran Ran Ran …
The light was blinding, and Lin Nuan's eyes reddened.
She looked at the crazy woman sitting on the small stool at the entrance with her neighbor and muttered to herself, "Where's my Ran Ran?! Where's my Ran Ran … "
Lin Nuan's eyes were moist, and she stopped a few steps away from the crazy woman.
"Ranran … Ranran!"
Seeing the girl in the white dress, the crazy woman rushed over again. The elderly auntie couldn't stop her in time. She could only watch as the crazy woman's dirty hands grabbed onto the girl's slender white arm.
"Ran Ran! Mommy's not crazy anymore! Come home with mommy! Mommy won't be crazy anymore … okay?! Okay?! "
Lin Nuan bit her lip to hold back her tears.
That crazy woman used her dirty hands to nervously touch Lin Nuan's head, face, and arms, checking to see if she was injured. "You haven't been home for a few days. Did anyone bully you? Were they warm and well fed?! Eat … that's right … eat until you're full! Ran Ran, are you hungry? Let me make you your favorite tomato and egg noodles, okay? Come home with mommy! Mommy will make it for you! "
