Chapter 17: Real Gold She Doesn't Want to Work Hard Anymore
Ning Lan didn't expect her to be so direct. She tried hard to find a trace of emotion and longing on Mingnan's face, but there was nothing. She only saw calmness and indifference.
It was as if she was not her mother, but just a stranger she had met once.
She felt a little uncomfortable, and the words she had prepared changed their meaning when they came to her lips.
"I can't come to see you if I'm fine? Mingnan, I'm your mother!"
Ning Lan's eyes seemed a little hurt, and there was a hint of disappointment in his anger.
Mingnan was indifferent and even found it a little funny. She didn't say anything and just looked at the other person quietly.
"Where do you live now? It's been a month, and you don't plan to go home?" Ning Lan frowned, thinking of the previous photos, paused, and then softened her attitude and coaxed: "It is true that we were not thoughtful enough before and did not take care of your feelings. We were wrong. Mom apologizes to you, okay?"
This was probably the first time in Ning Lan's life that he gave in to someone. His apology was stiff and somewhat reluctant.
Just then, the waiter came over to serve milk tea. Mingnan thanked him, and after a moment of silence, he picked up a cup and said to the sun: "Look, this ordinary milk tea costs twelve yuan a cup. In your eyes, it should be so cheap that you don't even care about it, right?"
"What's so good about this? If you like it, I'll ask my aunt to make it for you with the best green tea and milk when we get back. It tastes just as good as what we have here, and it's cleaner and healthier."
Ning Lan thought she missed the affluent life at home, and felt happy and that she had hope.
However, Mingnan shook his head.
"No, it's different." She put down the milk tea, stroked the wall of the cup with her fingertips, and said softly, "What Auntie cooked is not the taste I have been craving for more than ten years."
"What do you mean more than ten years?" Ning Lan was puzzled.
Mingnan looked at her and said calmly, "When I first saw someone drinking milk tea, I was curious about its taste, but my father was a gambler and he controlled all the money in the family. It was difficult for my mother and I to eat, and milk tea was a luxury that we couldn't even think of. Every time I passed by a milk tea shop on my way to school, I would speed up my pace and dare not take a second look."
"Later, I dropped out of school and started working. I was able to earn money and thought I could finally buy myself a cup of milk tea. But then I got a call from the hospital saying my mother was sick and needed a lot of money."
"It doesn't cost a lot of money actually." Mingnan laughed at himself. "For an ordinary family, they can save money by living frugally, but for our family, the medical expenses of tens of thousands of yuan are all we have. So I gave up the idea and saved the money to buy medicine for my mother."
Ning Lan's eyes trembled, and her hands on the table clenched unconsciously. She wanted to say something, but under Mingnan's gaze, she couldn't open her mouth.
Before Mingnan returned home, she asked someone to check his information, but she only took a quick glance and knew the general idea. She didn't know the details and had never thought about finding out. So this was the first time she faced Mingnan's past directly.
Having lived a life of luxury since childhood, she could not imagine what kind of life Mingnan was talking about. Why couldn't she even afford a cup of milk tea for a dozen yuan?
"The money for a cup of milk tea doesn't really affect anything, but I just couldn't bear to spend it. It wasn't until my mother passed away that I had nothing to worry about in this world and I finally bought myself my first cup of milk tea. You know, I actually thought it was bitter when I drank it for the first time!"
Her eyes were bright and full of surprise.
It's like a person in the abyss seeing the light for the first time, with a kind of tragic and unconscious innocence.
But the more this happens, the more embarrassed one becomes.
Ning Lan's lips trembled, and he continued to ask, "Is it broken?"
"No, it was because at that time I realized that my parents are not my parents, and I shouldn't have lived such a miserable life." Mingnan turned his head to look at the pedestrians coming and going outside the window, his voice as light as a feather.
"That day I specifically asked for full-sugar milk tea, hoping to get some sweet comfort, but the more I drank, the more bitter it became, and it was hard to swallow. If I didn't know anything, I might have just accepted my fate, but now that I know, how can I accept it?"
She suddenly turned her head and looked at Ning Lan, "That's why I came to find you. I want to go back to my home."
Ning Lan couldn't bear her gaze, and couldn't help but lowered his head, muttering: "Don't say it... Nan Nan, don't say it..."
"Why not?" Ming Nan smiled. "You came to me just to talk, right? It's a good opportunity for us to make things clear all at once."
"Before I came to you, I didn't think so much. I just wanted to have a family. But after I came here and saw how you doted on Ming Huaishu, I felt very unbalanced. Why are you so cold to me? I am obviously your daughter."
"Now I understand." Mingnan took a deep breath and said with relief: "The feelings between people are mutual. Even if there is a blood relationship, it takes time to cultivate deep feelings. It is simply wishful thinking for a daughter like me who suddenly appeared to want to share your love."
"No - it's not like that, don't say that, Mingnan..." Ning Lan reached out to hold Mingnan's hand, but Mingnan dodged.
She was stunned for a moment, then she thought of something and took out the card from her bag and handed it to her, "This is two million pocket money. Buy yourself some clothes for the changing seasons. If it's not enough, ask us for it. And this."
She took out a bunch of keys and pushed them towards me. "This is an unused villa of ours. No one has lived in it for a long time. Now it has been changed to your name. It will be yours from now on. This is our compensation to you."
"I know these are nothing, but I still hope you can accept them. It will make us feel better. Please don't refuse—"
Mingnan glanced at the card and key, then reached out to take it and looked at her in confusion, "Why would I refuse?"
Ning Lan: “Ah?”
"You owe me these things." Mingnan put the things in his bag in front of her and said, "You have the obligation and responsibility to raise me."
"What happened to you last time?" Ning Lan looked at her in a daze.
Mingnan said a little embarrassedly: "I left in a hurry last time and forgot about it. I couldn't go back to get it later, so I thought I'd forget it."
Ning Lan: “…”
205: [6.]
"Now that we've come to this, you should know my attitude. I won't go back. From now on, I have nothing to do with the Ming family. Goodbye."
Mingnan picked up the milk tea and was about to pay the bill. Ning Lan felt like a piece of her heart was missing and quickly stopped her: "Nannan, can you give us another chance to make it up to you?"
Mingnan lowered his eyes and looked at her arm holding his arm. The hand was well-maintained and even more delicate and smooth than her own.
She laughed briefly, raised her hand and brushed her away gently but firmly, "Not good."
"So-called love, when I wanted it, you were unwilling to give it to me. Now that you are willing to give it to me, I don't want it anymore."
"Missed is missed, there is no point in making up for it."
After saying that, she turned around to pay the bill, bagged her milk tea and left without looking back.
He never even glanced at Ning Lan again.
Ning Lan dropped his hand dejectedly, his whole body cold.
Maybe she was really wrong this time.
Realizing this, she felt a sudden pain in her heart.
The pain came suddenly, without any warning, but it instantly swept through her whole body.
Finally, she couldn't control her tears and turned her head to look out the window.
