Chapter 138
The setting sun sets westward, casting into the room, scattering an orange-yellow light. The thin man sat indifferently on the bed, his black eyes were lifeless, like a carved puppet.
A slight knock on the door sounded, and Aunt Li walked up to An Lan with her dinner carefully and said softly: "Miss An, it's time to have dinner."
An Lan said no, without even blinking her eyes. Her thin face turned yellow under the sunset. Aunt Li couldn't help but sigh when she saw her appearance.
He picked up the porcelain bowl and walked to An Lan, and persuaded him, "Miss An, I know you have no appetite. But it is not possible for you to not eat or drink all day long. Listen to my advice and take a few bites."
An Lan still didn't respond. Since she received the sedative, she didn't cry anymore when she woke up.
It was just that it was more dull than before, and she sat down hunchedly without eating or drinking. In the end, the doctor gave her nutrient solution to support her body.
"Miss An, I know I am just a servant and I am not qualified to say anything... But I am really sad to see you like this. You have done me so much, but my old woman can't do anything and can only cook for you. I beg you, can you eat it?"
An Lan still didn't listen to Aunt Li's begging. She looked at the orange floor blankly, as if she could see a flower from there.
"Miss, the old woman kneels down for you. Can you stop torture yourself like this again?"
Aunt Li said, kneeling in front of An Lan with a thud. This time, An Lan finally made a move. She slowly turned her head and said in a hoarse voice: "Aunt Li, how much has he given you?"
The words were not so clear, but Aunt Li heard them clearly.
She couldn't help but shake her head and said, "Miss An, it's not what you think. Mr. did not ask me to do this. This is my own idea."
"Do you still remember? A few years ago, my son was in a car accident and the hospital issued a critical illness notice and had to undergo a craniotomy immediately. That was a considerable fee. After you heard that, you gave me 500,000 without saying a word. You said nothing, but this is a great gift for our family!"
"If you hadn't taken action in time, my son would have... now he was ready. He had a grandson for me after getting married last year. I remember all this in my heart and always want to repay you."
Aunt Li said, her eyes moistened, "Miss An, I know you have lived a hard life. But people must be hopeful in life in the world. As long as they overcome this hurdle, they will get better in the future. You must cheer up!"
An Lan looked at Aunt Li quietly, and after a long time, he opened his mouth, "Thank you, you go out first, I want to be quiet."
Aunt Li sighed as she wanted to speak, gritted her teeth and struggled for a long time. Her hands were tightly in her trouser pocket, as if there was something hot but she didn't dare to take it out.
After hesitating for a long time, she finally took out the things with trembling hands and spread them in front of An Lan.
A hand-woven bracelet lay quietly in her palm, and the azure color flashed slightly under the light.
The moment An Lan saw the bracelet, her breathing suddenly stopped. She took the bracelet in surprise and looked at it carefully. Her trembling lips moved for a long time before she could barely ask a question—
"Who, who gave it to you?"
Aunt Li bit her lower lip tightly, struggling and tormenting in her heart. She couldn't help but look away from her longing eyes and couldn't say a word.
An Lan refused to let her avoid it. She grabbed the bracelet tightly and knelt in front of Aunt Li with a thud. Tears flashed in her eyes and asked, "Aunt Li, please tell me, where is this..."
Aunt Li was startled and hurriedly helped her up. However, An Lan turned around and grabbed her arms tightly and said eagerly: "Aunt Li, tell me, tell me..."
Aunt Li hesitated and gritted her teeth before saying, "She didn't say her name, she just told me to hand over this bracelet to you. You, you won't do stupid things..."
