Chapter 116
Along the quiet tree-lined path, Yan Yiming’s footsteps on the stones were a little hasty, even though she resisted this place for a long time.
The small villa hidden in the outskirts of City S is remote and quiet. Yan Yiming pushed open the familiar but unfamiliar door because of time. The aunt who was pruning the trees saw her eyebrows and eyes curled up, “Ah Ming is here!” .”
The tone is still familiar and friendly, just like coming here every few days every time, but for Yan Yiming, everything here has not been seen for eight years.
“Ah, here we come”, Yan Yiming didn’t know how to speak for a while, and agreed awkwardly.
Auntie thought it was Yan Yiming who was unwilling to come here as before, she smiled without being surprised, and picked up the scissors in her hand again, “Madam is in the room, she should have just woken up.”
Yan Yiming nodded, standing here, he could vaguely hear the sound of the piano in the room.
This is a sunny villa specially built for her recuperation. The air is excellent and extraordinarily quiet. There is also a hot spring that is very effective for recuperation. The walls of the villa are all glass with very good light transmission. Sitting in the house and looking out is full of eyes shade.
A wide view and plenty of sunlight always make people feel better.
Just like Mama Yan who is sitting quietly in front of the piano at the moment, the piece she is playing is called “Vanessa’s Smile”. She only plays this brisk piece when she is in a good mood.
Yan Yiming looked at her back, she was still wearing a delicate and solemn long dress, her hair was **** as carefully as before, but her figure seemed to be a little thinner than in memory. Yan Yiming didn’t disturb her, sat on the sofa next to her and watched her seriously, and waited until she finished playing the song, then applauded softly and said, “It sounds good.”
Mother Yan was taken aback for a moment, her pale face burst into undisguised surprise when she saw Yan Yiming.
She wanted to stand up and walk towards the daughter in front of her, but she didn’t move, she was still sitting in front of the piano, her still beautiful face showed a bit of hesitation and timidity.
Yan Yiming suddenly felt distressed.
Even though the mistake was made when she was unconscious, it still made her more sensitive and vulnerable. Yan Yiming suddenly wanted to hold her frail body in his arms.
She thought so, and did so.
Yan Yiming stood up, walked over with Mama Yan’s somewhat helpless expression, and gently hugged her in his arms behind him, his voice was gentle and patient, not always full of fear and impatience as before.
“It’s really nice to hear,” she said. Yan Yiming could feel her momentary stiffness, and said softly, suppressing the bitterness in her heart, “I haven’t heard it for a long time, can I play another song?”
“sure!”
Mama Yan answered almost instantly, her slender fingers landed on the keys, her voice contained some easily detectable pleading, “Is the girl’s prayer okay?”
“I just want to listen to this song too.” Yan Yiming let her sit beside her and said with a smile, “We are really like a mother and daughter.”
Yan’s mother’s hand on the keys trembled slightly, and she didn’t dare to look at her daughter’s face again. After a while, only the sound of the piano slowly lingered in her ears.
The sunlight fell on her face through the glass through the green shade, it was so warm that Yan Yiming suddenly wanted to cry.
She really missed such a quiet and peaceful afternoon for too long.
The acquaintance of the parents was a **** accident that shouldn’t have happened from the very beginning. The truly pampered daughter madly fell in love with the young man whose family was down and had to return home. Yan Yiming’s most disliked marriage in his life began from this forced marriage, one party was wholeheartedly happy, while the other party was carelessly coping.
Their beginning wasn’t a good one, and even after Yan’s mother gave almost compassionately, it never made this marriage a happy one.
Yan Yiming once heard from his grandfather that the two of them had a rare period of time when she came, but this time did not seem to be too long. In the twenty years since Yan Yiming became sensible and remembered, she I have never seen my father show any concern for my mother.
Resentment builds up slowly.
They never quarreled, because the mother would always endure, but they still drifted away, the father began not to come home intermittently, the mother became taciturn, and Yan Yiming often saw her shutting herself in the room, sitting Just the whole day.
Yan Yiming was only twelve years old at that time, she didn’t understand her father’s indifference, and she also didn’t understand her mother’s persistence. She asked her father why he didn’t come home, and his father patted her head, saying that he was busy and there was no other reason .
But his mother would still cry, Yan Yiming called his father to let him go home, but the secretary’s sweet voice said that Mr. Yan was busy.
Yan Yiming, who still didn’t know how to hide his emotions, felt extreme anger for the first time. She didn’t tell anyone to go to the company to find her father. She wanted to see what he was up to. No one dared to stop her. She pushed her father away. In the office, she saw the secretary who responded to her on the phone saying that her father was busy standing behind her father, gently rubbing her father’s temples.
She probably lowered her head to say something to him, her father had a smile on his face, a smile he had never shown in front of his mother, the two talked like lovers until she appeared.
The moment he saw her, the secretary hurriedly backed away, and for the first time, the usually steady father showed a flustered look of bewilderment.
That was the beginning of all the nightmares. Yan Yiming felt nausea like never before. At that time, she didn’t know how to control her emotions. She looked at the two with the most vicious eyes, and then went home crying.
She wanted to tell her mother what she saw, but when she got home, she met her uncle who happened to come home. The uncle smiled and asked her what was wrong. Yan Yiming rubbed his eyes and told his uncle what he saw. His expression changed suddenly. After that, there was an expression that Yan Yiming didn’t understand at the beginning.
He told her not to tell her mother, and she asked him why, and he said it was because her mother was already very sad.
At first she thought that being sad was just a bad mood, but later she realized that what her uncle meant was that she was already living a difficult life.
She kept this secret. When she cried in the house until her eyes were swollen that day, her father finally came home. When Yan Yiming thought of his smile at that time, she couldn’t stop being disgusted. She didn’t want to say a word to her father. Finally it was my father who said that the secretary had left.
Yan Yiming got up from the bed, she learned to speak with a sneer at such a young age, she said that I wish she would die.
Now that I think about it, I find it ridiculous. People’s feelings are always selfish. At that time, she wanted that woman to die, but she never thought that her father was even more unforgivable.
My father said sorry to her over and over again, and she seemed to forgive him. After a long time, she told my father that I didn’t tell my mother.
Father was silent for a long time, and thanked her.
All the filth was hidden, and his father finally returned home. Yan Yiming thought he could finally recover, but within half a month, the most unacceptable thing still happened.
His mother committed suicide, and when Yan Yiming ran into the hospital like crazy, she stood at the corner of the hospital and heard her uncle talking to her father. Yan Yiming knew that she couldn’t hide it from her mother at all, and she still knew.
The person was finally rescued, but the result of the final examination was that the mother was already suffering from severe depression, so severe that she thought of committing suicide.
She found the words written by her mother hiding in the house every day and night. She was confessing the beginning of this love and the marriage that grandpa used some means to obtain at the beginning. She said that everything was committed by her. On the last page, she said that her father had his love, so she chose to fulfill him.
So that day, the brief ice break between Yan Yiming and his father disappeared.
After waking up again, the mother refused to admit that she was sick, and firmly refused to agree to take medicine for treatment. The family had no choice but to ask more people to take care of her and watch her. She would still laugh, and would gently ask Yan Yiming how his recent studies were and what happened today, just like a normal person.
In the blink of an eye, it was another three years, and she never committed suicide or self-harm again, but on the day Yan Yiming finished high school, she approached us and saw her kneeling on the ground alone, talking about the familiar confession in the diary.
Yan Yiming approached with some fear and asked her what she was doing.
She looked back at her and smiled and said, “I’m talking to your father.” After that, her eyes fell on the sofa next to her, “Ah, he went upstairs.”
Yan Yiming suddenly felt a fear he had never felt before, and his hair stood on end for a moment.
Because there was no one on the sofa since she came in.
She had hallucinations, and her spirit quietly went wrong again.
The family dared not let her go on like this any longer. Instead of going to the hospital, she had to ask a doctor to come to her home for treatment, but she firmly refused to think that something was wrong with her. She yelled frantically to tell the doctor to get out. She cried and pulled her father’s sleeve and said She is not sick.
She didn’t take the medicine, and she would vomit it all up after taking the medicine. She locked herself in the house and locked the door, and no one was allowed in.
Yan Yiming looked at the night sky in dismay, walked downstairs, and saw his father sitting on the sofa alone, the room was filled with smoke, father and daughter looked at each other in the dark, but they didn’t say a word.
At that time, Yan Yiming had never had any fear of her mother, she was fully expecting her to recover as before, so she was completely unprepared.
At the age of eighteen, it was her mother’s birthday, and her father accompanied her to celebrate this birthday. Yan Yiming fell asleep in a rare mood, woke up in the middle of the night and wanted to go to the bathroom, but when he opened his eyes, he met his mother’s pale face under the moonlight .
Yan Yiming was taken aback, then heaved a sigh of relief and asked her why she was here, and if she wanted to sleep with her.
The mother looked at her silently, then raised her hand suddenly, Yan Yiming saw the knife in her hand glistening in surprise, she cried and pointed the tip of the knife at her neck with trembling hands, she said she belonged to her father sin, and she who was born a daughter, too.
You are original sin, she said, you were born sinful.
Yan Yiming pushed her away in panic and shouted, she was even more anxious as she was in a hurry, and cut Yan Yiming’s arm to block the knife with a knife.
The father rushed in when he heard the movement, and hurriedly pulled his mother away in shock. The knife fell to the ground. One night, the three of them were dead silent.
The doctor made a bandage for her, and the mother took the medicine and fell asleep. Yan Yiming went downstairs to meet his father holding his wound. He was such a serious person, but his eyes were red that day.
These years of indifference finally caused irreparable damage, and he really regretted it.
And the mother who woke up the next day saw her bandaged wound in shock and asked her what was going on. Yan Yiming remembered her words last night and subconsciously avoided her in fear. She stood there in surprise and pitifulness. There, I can’t remember what happened yesterday.
Even if it’s an injury, even if it’s death without intention, but the injury has been left behind. She was admitted to university that year, and she left S City and went to a farther place.
