At that moment, Wen Ranran discovered that what Jiang Huailiang was exuding was a mixture of fear, love and hate.
Wen Ranran didn't understand.
The two fell into silence at the same time.
"Your mother's name is Lan Guxue! She doesn't have a last name, but I... gave her this name after I got to know her."
Jiang Huailiang sighed, "But actually... I still like to call her, Ah Li!"
Ah Li?
Wen Ranran was stunned for a moment, confirming that this name never appeared in her memory.
But... it is true that when he first met Gu Changfeng, Gu Changfeng was very stiff in pronouncing the name "Lan Guxue". Obviously, he was not familiar with this name, but he still called it that way.
"Can...can you tell me in detail?" Wen Ranran looked pale, "I don't know why, but I have been dreaming about my mother since I was poisoned some time ago. I don't know what this so-called dream has to do with her.
It doesn’t matter...I..."
Jiang Huailiang looked at Wen Ranran and realized that her complexion was indeed not good.
"Actually, I have always known that my father is not particularly close to me. After all, maybe there is a gap in my father's heart, right?" Wen Ranran smiled slightly, whether it was self-deprecation or a sigh.
"Let me guess, what kind of emotions does my father feel towards my mother? Fear? Admiration? Or disbelief?"
"Or maybe, when I was born, you might have seen something, which broke your illusion, and even blamed me for the child... So later, even if you knew that Shu'er was not your biological child, because of the relationship between you and Shu'er
There is no so-called resentment between them, and because she looks like her mother, she treats Shu'er as her own daughter, right?"
Jiang Huailiang opened his mouth and looked at his daughter, unable to say anything.
Wen Ranran looked at the other party's reaction and was actually not surprised.
To be honest, she has long been used to this.
She knew that Wen Changjin loved her, and she also knew that Jiang Huailiang treated her as his own daughter.
But as the saying goes...if you don't compare, there will be no gap.
Wen Ranran's character has never been one to complain about others, but sometimes she doesn't have a special sense of belonging when faced with some things.
Jiang Huailiang's hands were trembling and he looked at Wen Ranran, "Ranran...how can you think so?"
"Then please father...tell me the truth! Who is mother? How did you and mother know each other?" Wen Ranran looked at Jiang Huailiang and felt a little uncomfortable. This feeling was definitely not a good feeling.
But Wen Ranran already has too many puzzles in her heart, and this puzzle now affects her life every moment, and even her dreams.
Wen Ranran really didn't like this "I know but I can't tell you" situation.
Jiang Huailiang took a deep breath and then spoke slowly, "Your mother and I... met when I was twenty-three years old!"
Wen Ranran was slightly stunned and looked at Jiang Huailiang.
Jiang Huailiang smiled, "At that time, I was planning to go to Tianzhu for friendly exchanges and peace talks. You also know the southwest border... It was common for tribes to fight for territory... At that time, the Jin Dynasty
Division and border harassment are also commonplace!”
"It was on that border that I met your mother! At that time... she definitely didn't look good-looking! She was even ordinary, and a bit frighteningly ugly..."
"She fell on the roadside... with a tall belly. She looked like she was pregnant, but she was calling for help on the roadside. No one on the roadside was willing to help. I couldn't bear it at the time, so I stepped forward and pulled the girl out.
The girl carried her all the way to a cave, and because she knew a little about medicine, she went to find medicinal materials to stop her bleeding..."
"But, something happened right after I returned to the cave."
Jiang Huailiang's pupils narrowed slightly, and he looked at Wen Ranran with even a bit of emotion in his eyes.
"When I went back, I saw a young woman sitting in the cave!"
Wen Ranran was slightly stunned, "How... how is it possible?"
Jiang Huailiang sighed, "She said...she was originally a goddess in the sky. She dressed up as a pregnant woman on the roadside to test everyone! And I..."
Wen Ranran was completely confused after hearing this strange answer.
