Qiao Panpan's mother, Qi Ya, was an embroidery girl. She was gentle in temperament with a beautiful appearance. Although she was over 30 years old, her soft smile was more attractive than those young twenty-something girls.
It was precisely because of this beauty that certain people coveted her after her husband's absence.
Qi Ya was weak, but this vulnerability had turned into strong character after facing people who wanted to take advantage of her. She fought desperately, rejecting Er Lai Zi's wishes for her to marry him. Later, the family home caught fire, Qi Ya suffered a serious illness, and needed medical expenses to survive, but he still wouldn't let her go.
She resolutely sold the house and took the rest of the money to live with her daughter.
After paying Panpan's tuition, the money was just enough for Qi Ya's medical expenses. Her daughter was still young and she was her only family member. Even if she didn't want to drag her down again, she would have to grind her teeth to survive.
Qi Ya was ill and couldn't do anything, but her real money-making craft was embroidery. So, sitting on the bed every day, embroidering and selling the finished pieces, was what helped them support themselves by earning enough for daily expenses.
The doctor said her time was running out. She was only being supported by her medication and could leave at any time. Qi Ya didn't care. Her daughter was an adult and she had the ability to earn money and support herself. She could leave with confidence.
It's just... She was unwilling if she did not see that man at least once before her death.
Qi Ya was clever but naive.
She could easily see Er Lai Zi's seemingly reliable idea as him actually convincing her to commit adultery, She believed in her husband's words.
If he said he would come back, then he would definitely come back.
The woman slowly drank the soup from the spoon. After the warm soup entered her belly, she frowned slightly, raised her eyes and asked softly, "Panpan, where did these come from?"
"I went on a business trip with the CEO today. When we came back, he invited me to eat, and let me pack a meal for you."
Panpan tactfully concealed the fact that she did not eat all day. Seeing that her mother still had some doubts, she hurriedly said what she saw today.
"I heard that our CEO donates money to orphans every year, saying that it's for the sake of his wife and daughter. He's really a very nice person and takes special care of me. He also said that he would compensate me with double salary for today's business trip!"
Panpan skillfully peeled the apple, and said to Qi Ya, who looked dazed, "Mom, what's wrong?"
"Nothing ..." When Qi Ya was called by her daughter, she snapped out of it. She forced a smile and said softly, "Before your father left, he also said he would bring me red roses."
Qiao Panpan's expression dimmed. She said in a somewhat depressed tone, "Mom, don't think about him. Although communicating was inconvenient at the time, he hasn't come back for so many years, he ..."
She wanted to say that he did not want them, but looking at her mother with her sad eyes; she swallowed the rest of the words.
"Anyway, aren't we both doing well without him? The company I am working at now has a high salary and treats their employees well. When I get back after graduation, I'll soon be able to save enough money to buy a flat!"
"Okay, mom will wait for Panpan to buy a house." It was easier said than done, but for her daughter's whimsical fantasy, Qi Ya smiled gently and answered. Her beautiful eyes were full of trust.
