"I knew what kind of person she was. Knowing that the confinement nanny wasn't around, I was worried and went to see her. As soon as I entered the door, I heard Beicheng crying. When I went over to take a look, his body was burning hot, his voice was hoarse, and his face was red. I was so scared that I rushed him to the hospital, but the doctor said that if we were any later, the child would have been gone. I was really afraid that I might have saved his life, but I still burned his brain. Luckily, he was fine. At that time, I was so angry that I slapped Jiang Changdai. Only then did she restrain herself, but she still only asked the confinement nanny to pay more attention to him. She didn't even look at him.
"Beicheng grew up a little and understood things. It was the time when he was the most attentive to his mother, but she never hugged him. She only looked at him coldly. Beicheng took the initiative to please her several times, but she ignored him. She only coldly said that boys shouldn't always pester their mothers for hugs. You don't know how painful it was for me to see a little child, only two or three years old, who had to carefully please his mother and make her like him. What kind of child needs to please his mother?
"Once, Beicheng accidentally touched one of her brooches. It was just a touch, but she saw it. She grabbed Beicheng and hit him hard. Later, we found out that the brooch was given to her by Lu Zhenting before she got married, "Old Madam Yan said. "So, we directly brought Beicheng to the old mansion to take care of him. Your grandfather and I still had the energy to take care of him. It was better than letting him stay with Jiang Changdai. Only when his father is resting will he be taken home. "
"I remember very clearly that when Beicheng was seven years old, she was willing to bring Beicheng to the mall to buy new clothes. In the past, it was always me who took care of him. She had never done this before. Beicheng was very happy. He was so young, but he never gave up on his mother's love, even if it was just a little. What happened in the end? She brought him to the mall. When Beicheng was changing in the fitting room, she received a call. Later, we guessed that it was probably Lu Zhenting calling her. She went out to answer the call. I don't know what she heard, but she left in a daze, leaving Beicheng in the mall.
"Beicheng came out after trying on the clothes. He was originally happy to let her see if he looked good in them, but she couldn't be found. The shop assistant said that Beicheng's mother had gone out to take a call, so Beicheng insisted on waiting in the shop. Jiang Changdai didn't come back even when the shopping mall was about to close. Beicheng cried as he went to the fitting room to change out of the clothes in the store. He had been wearing them all this time, waiting for Jiang Changdai to come back and see him. "
"That day, Beicheng's father was working overtime. When he got home at night, he realized that the child wasn't home, and neither was she. He thought that Beicheng was at our house, so he called home, but he didn't come home. That's why we panicked and went out to look for him. What if … what if he ran into a human trafficker? He was so young, and there were so many people in the mall when it was almost New Year. The Northern City's Fortune University did not encounter it. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable. At that time, I really … "Old Mrs. Yan choked and said," I really wanted them to divorce! Marrying such a woman is simply committing a sin! "
Old Mrs. Yan said, and tears fell down.
Auntie Chen had already taken Yan Ningbai back to the bedroom to sleep. She was afraid that the child would hear what they said.
Yu Zi sat next to Old Mrs. Yan and silently handed her a tissue.
Old Mrs. Yan wiped her tears and blew her nose. "The shop assistant pitied him and took him to the police station. The police station informed us, so we were relieved. When Beicheng saw us, he cried all of a sudden. He cried very hard. I've never seen him cry like that before, no matter how much he suffered in the past. He was really scared. After that, he had nightmares for a few days. He called for his father, mother, grandpa, grandma, and no one left him. He wanted to go home. "
"It's hard for me to imagine that a child as young as him would be alone in the shopping mall, looking at the people coming in and out, but none of them were his mother coming to take him home. Until everyone left, and no one came to pick him up, he was so scared. " Old Mrs. Yan cried and said, "After that incident, Beicheng gave up on Jiang Changdai. He no longer asked for her attention."
"But he was still young, so he still had some hope in his heart. But every time, Jiang Changdai was so cold. She didn't even look at him and ignored him, so he no longer had any hope. When he gradually grew up, he completely gave up. He only called her mother when he saw her, and he didn't say anything else. He didn't try to attract her attention anymore. Before Beicheng was seven, he would ask us if his mother didn't like him and if he didn't do well enough. Does it mean that as long as he works harder, Mom will like him a little more? "
"We could only coax him and lie to him. After he was seven, he never asked that question again. When Beicheng was ten years old, he had his own ideas. Although he was still a young boy, he had the spirit of an adult. He was neither cold nor warm to Jiang Changdai, but Jiang Changdai was unhappy. She asked Beicheng why he was so unfilial and didn't care about his mother. It wasn't until he was 15 years old that you knew what happened after that. "
"Actually, I can understand Beicheng. It's not that he doesn't want to talk about it, but he doesn't even want to think about it, let alone talk about it. It's like he's going through the past all over again." Old Mrs. Yan sighed.
"Grandma, I'm sorry. It's all my stubbornness —"
"Silly child, it's not your fault. What does it have to do with you? You'll know sooner or later! "Old Mrs. Yan said.
The two talked for a while more before ending the call.
Lin Chu didn't dare to go back immediately. She was crying so badly now. When she thought of the hardships Yan Beicheng suffered when he was young, she felt terrible and couldn't stop her tears. She couldn't go back now and let Yan Beicheng see her and worry.
She planned to go to the bathroom to hide for a while, wash her face, and let her eyes look less red before going back.
As soon as she opened the door, she bumped into Yan Beicheng's arms.
He changed into comfortable home clothes, navy blue casual pants, and a white baseball shirt. After showering, he was greeted by the familiar fragrance of shower gel.
Ever since they moved in, the two of them had been using the same bottle of shampoo and shower gel. But the same things emitted different scents on the two of them. Yan Beicheng's body seemed especially masculine, which she liked very much. It seemed to have a stimulating effect, making her whole body go soft when she smelled it.
His T-shirt was a little damp. It was obvious that he had just taken a shower. His body wasn't completely dry yet, and there was some water stuck to his clothes.
His hair was only wiped a few times with a towel, and he didn't blow dry it. Now that it was half-dry, the ends of his hair slowly dripped water onto his shoulders, wetting them. The water vapor with the fragrance of shampoo floated into her nose.
Lin Chu didn't dare to let Yan Beicheng see her cry, so she lowered her head and didn't raise it.
She was being hugged by Yan Beicheng when she heard his clear voice from above her head. "I just came out of the shower and saw that you weren't here. Why did you come here?"
Lin Chu shook her head and didn't dare to speak, or else she would be exposed.
Yan Beicheng felt that something was wrong. He frowned and his voice became tense. "What's going on?"
Lin Chu saw that she couldn't hide it, so she could only say in a muffled voice, "Grandma called just now. I think it's because you went to the old mansion in a hurry and left. She was worried about us, so I came here to answer the call. In the end … I heard Grandma talk about your childhood. "
Her voice was muffled and soft, like a child who had been wronged and came to act coquettishly to an adult.
Yan Beicheng hugged her tightly, his heart aching.
"That's all in the past. Besides, I didn't care about it since I was ten." Yan Beicheng knew that her heart ached, so he lowered his head and planted a hot kiss on her hair.
He picked her up and sat on the sofa in the study, letting her sit in his arms.
"You don't care, but I care. I feel bad when I think about the grievances you suffered when you were young," Lin Chu said in a muffled voice.
How could she be as bad as her mother!
"I know, just like how I know that you suffered in the Lin family. It's hard, too," Yan Beicheng said softly. His voice was elegant, and it was especially comforting. "You don't want me to feel bad because of you, and I don't want you to feel bad because of my past. Anyway, it's been a long time. Let's look forward and treat each other well, not letting each other feel wronged. It's enough that the other party doesn't feel wronged in front of others. "
