Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Su Yan and Lu Juan hugged each other and cried for a while before they calmed down. It was not that the mother-daughter relationship between the two of them was so deep, but they had not seen each other for so many years. Furthermore, Su Yan had suffered so much after that. They had different feelings.
Lu Juan held Su Yan’s hand and brought her to sit on the sofa. Lu Juan asked, “How is it? How have you been all these years?”
If it was any other ordinary person, she would probably say that she was doing well to comfort her parents. However, Su Yan was different. She told her everything that had happened to her over the years in detail.
After hearing this, Lu Juan was stunned for a while. When she came back to her senses, she could not stop her tears from flowing again. After all, she had been pregnant with Su Yan for ten months and had gone through painstaking means to give birth to her. Naturally, she was very concerned about her. When she suddenly heard that her daughter had suffered all these years, Lu Juan naturally did not feel good.
“I’ve heard a few versions about you, Mom.” Su Yan suddenly said.
Seeing that Lu Juan’s attention was on her, Su Yan continued, “Some people said that you died together with Dad. This version is the most known one. The other version is that you wanted to bring me, who had just turned one year old, for plastic surgery. That’s why you angered Grandpa and Dad divorced you.”
Hearing Su Yan’s words, Lu Juan sighed. “Actually, no matter which version it is, the Yun family spread it to protect me.” As Lu Juan spoke, she smiled at Su Yan and reached out to touch Su Yan’s face that was similar to hers. “Actually, long ago, the Yun family had a plan. A plan that could save millions of people.”
“Is it the human traffickers organization?” Su Yan continued. The first time the human traffickers’ organization appeared in Su Yan’s line of sight was when Su Yan went to look for Yun Yi’s belongings. During that car accident, Old Master Yun told Su Yan about the Yun family and the human traffickers’ organization.
Lu Juan sighed and replied, “Yes, that organization. I heard that Old Master Yun’s younger sister and several members of the Yun family were abducted.”
The warm sunlight outside the window shone on Lu Juan. Lu Juan smiled and said, “You didn’t expect this, did you? Actually, you were almost kidnapped by human traffickers before. It was your First Uncle who saved you.
“Later on, my obsessive-compulsive disorder was also triggered because of that incident. At that time, you had just lifted your head. There was once when I brought you out to play. I wore a pair of suspenders specially made for carrying children. There were two rows of buttons on the suspenders, and one of them was not buttoned properly. That was why you were almost snatched away by someone. From then on, I felt uncomfortable whenever I saw something asymmetrical, and my condition worsened.”
Speaking of this matter, even now, Lu Juan still felt a lingering fear. If she really did not take care of Su Yan, where would she be now? What kind of life would she be living?
Could she have been sold to some remote place to be a child bride?
Even though Su Yan was not kidnapped and her life was not good, she was still on the right path.
With that thought in mind, Lu Juan sighed again and continued, “I think you know what happened after that. At that time, I thought, if you weren’t so cute, would there be no one to snatch you away? That’s why I did such a foolish thing.”
Even if she were to talk about what happened nearly twenty years ago now, Lu Juan could not help but feel a lingering fear in her heart. Looking at her daughter who had already grown so big, Lu Juan smiled lightly and patted Su Yan’s head. She gently said, “Don’t worry. I don’t hate the Yun family. On the contrary, I’m very grateful to them. I’m grateful that they could stop me in time and not make me commit a greater mistake.”
Lu Juan was able to say those words calmly at this time, so she must have really walked out.
However, Su Yan saw that every part of Lu Juan’s room was completely symmetrical, regardless of whether it was big or small, whether it was obvious or not. Her heart skipped a beat, she pointed at Lu Juan’s completely symmetrical pajamas and did not say anything.
Lu Juan added with a smile, “That’s right. Up until now, my illness hasn’t recovered. Many doctors have come to take a look at me and said that it’s a psychological problem. They even said that if it’s a psychological problem, then I should search for the reason for my illness. I think there’s no hope for me.”
Su Yan paused for a moment. Looking at Lu Juan and Yun Yi’s photos all over the room, she felt a little ache in her heart. An indescribable emotion suddenly surged within her.
Unexpectedly, Lu Juan smiled and said, “Yun Yi and I aren’t the kind of loving couple you think we are. We’re only together because we’re suitable for each other. Moreover, we haven’t been able to develop any feelings for each other for so many years. We’re really not suitable.”
As she spoke, Lu Juan took a photo from the table and fiddled with it. “There are so many photos in the room because it looks more comfortable when their composition is symmetrical.”
Su Yan paused.. The sourness in her nose seemed to have disappeared.
