Knock, knock! There was a knock on the door, followed by Xiao Yan’s worried voice. “Qian Qian, are you done showering?”
Shi Qian turned off the shower and replied, “It’ll be ready soon.”
Xiao Yan stayed at the door.
A few minutes later, Shi Qian showered and looked at herself in the mirror.
She felt so unfamiliar with herself.
She was beyond haggard.
If her mother saw her like this, her heart would definitely ache.
Shi Qian raised her hand to wipe the mist off the mirror.
In a daze, she thought she saw her mother in the mirror.
Her mother was wearing a light yellow cheongsam and a fringed shawl. Her hair was tied back and she was smiling at her.
That smile was so gentle it was like a bright light.
“Mom,” Shi Qian cried out.
In the blink of an eye, the figure in the mirror was gone, but her mother’s voice and smile were etched in her heart.
Why? Her mother had clearly died so miserably. Whether in her dreams or this illusory shadow, her mother was smiling.
It was just as her mother had said before.
If she had to leave this world one day, no matter what the outcome was, she would definitely die with a smile.
This was because she had such a good daughter. She had no regrets in her life.
Shi Qian felt a lump in her throat again. “Mom, I was wrong. I was really wrong. Don’t worry. No matter what happens in the future, I’ll be fine. I’ll be brave and strong and continue with the rest of my life! I’ll fulfill my dream and live a wonderful life! I know you can definitely see it!”
Shi Qian was not out yet. Xiao Yan felt anxious. Just as she was about to knock, the door suddenly opened and Shi Qian walked out.
It was obvious that Shi Qian must have cried again inside. Her eyes were abnormally red.
She had heard something about Shi Qian’s mother and felt bad.
Xiao Yan had no relatives. Her parents had passed away when she was young and she was raised by a relative who only wanted her parents’ pension. Later, when the pension was spent, he took her to a station and heartlessly left her there.
Later, she was sent to a welfare home and was raised with the financial support of some kind people. She completed her studies and achieved what she had today.
Xiao Yan knew how deep Shi Qian’s relationship with her mother was. Although she couldn’t empathize, she could understand Shi Qian’s current feelings.
“Qian Qian, there’s a new set of clothes and pajamas here. Change into them first.” Xiao Yan handed the paper bag on the sofa to Shi Qian.
“Okay.” Shi Qian nodded.
“Qian Qian, tell me, were you trying to do something stupid at the beach just now?”
“Yes, but never again.”
Shi Qian’s answer shut Xiao Yan up.
She was not sure if Shi Qian had really thought it through.
“Sister Yan, can you order something for me? I’m a little hungry,” Shi Qian asked.
“Okay, I’ll call it right away.” Xiao Yan immediately went to look at the menu.
Shi Qian changed into her pajamas and sat in front of the sofa to wait.
It didn’t take long for a sumptuous meal to be delivered to the room.
Shi Qian ate in silence.
However, when she ate it, she felt a little disgusted and almost vomited a few times.
When she wanted to throw up, she took a sip of water and rested for a while again.
Xiao Yan sat at the side, her brows furrowed.
Shi Qian’s appetite was a little more than usual.. Could she have eaten too much because she was too sad?
