Now that Ye Qinglan is here, she will naturally not give in so easily: "Sister-in-law, I have something to tell you. Can you open the door first and let me in?"
There was silence in the room again. After a while, Cui Wancai sighed quietly: "I know you have good intentions and want to accompany me, but... I am very upset. I don't want to see anyone or talk to you now."
In front of the smart Ye Qinglan, there is no need to use those little tricks of pretending to be sick.
"If you don't want to talk, there's no need to say anything." Ye Qinglan's voice was calm and gentle, which made people feel peaceful and peaceful inexplicably: "I won't say anything, just sit with you for a while, okay?" After a pause, and then
He said jokingly: "Sister-in-law, if you don't open the door today, I won't leave. I'll just stay with you outside the door."
Cui Wan sighed helplessly, hesitated for a long time, and finally came over and opened the door.
The moment their eyes met, Ye Qinglan was secretly shocked.
Although she had already expected that Cui Wan's situation would not be too good, she was still shocked when she saw Cui Wan with her own eyes.
Cui Wan didn't wear makeup today, and her pale and haggard face was clearly visible. Her bright eyes were dull, her lips were dry, and her complexion was ugly. Her whole body was like a flower that had lost its moisture, quickly withering.
With this look, no one would doubt that her so-called illness was a lie.
When Cui Wan saw Ye Qinglan staring at her, she couldn't help but laugh at herself: "My appearance scares you, right?"
Not to mention others, even she herself was frightened when she saw herself in the mirror. But she didn't want to hide it like she used to. She indulged herself in the house and just stayed in the house, not wanting to see anyone.
She wanted to be alone and think about it quietly. However, Ye Qinglan's kindness and determination made her unable to refuse.
In this mansion, the only one who really cares about her is probably this young girl who is only twelve years old...
Ye Qinglan closed the door lightly, sat down with Cui Wan, and asked with concern: "You look so ugly. Did you not sleep all night last night?"
Cui Wan smiled bitterly and nodded.
People who have never suffered from insomnia have no idea what kind of pain it is. The body is obviously extremely tired and longs for rest, but the mind is extremely clear. As soon as you close your eyes, annoying nightmares invade you. The whole person becomes confused.
I am becoming more and more fragile and helpless, as if I am walking on the edge of a cliff and will fall into the abyss at any time...
Ye Qinglan stared at Cui Wan, who was frowning and worried. She suddenly said: "Sister-in-law, what did your mother say to you that day that made you worried all day and insomnia at night?"
Cui Wan's face suddenly turned pale, and she looked at Ye Qinglan blankly, speechless for a while.
At that time, only He and her were present. All the maids had been sent away. She could be sure that no one else could know what He said to her. How could Ye Qinglan... possibly guess that she was because of He?
Did the words become what they are now?
Ye Qinglan seemed to see the doubts in her heart. He took the initiative to explain: "You have had insomnia before, but the situation was not that serious. But since your mother came here, your insomnia has become more and more severe, and you are worried every day.
.So I think she must have said something to you, which made you feel very troubled. You were hesitant and didn’t know what to do. Cousin, am I right?"
Not only was it right, it revealed all her obscure thoughts!
Cui Wan's heart stirred up a huge wave, and suddenly she felt that the calm, gentle and intelligent young girl in front of her was unfamiliar to her like never before.
That pretty and beautiful little face is clearly still childish. But the calm and sharp eyes are shining with wisdom, composure and confidence. This strong contrast even makes people feel a little bit weird...
Looking into each other's eyes, Ye Qinglan seemed to see through the doubts and panic in Cui Wan's heart, and said sincerely: "Sister-in-law, I really want to help you, you don't have to be afraid."
Her eyes were clear and penetrating, like two clear springs, and her gentleness contained inexplicable calming power. No one who faced such a sincere and concerned face would doubt her sincerity.
Can he trust her? Can he tell her everything? Cui Wan thought silently and subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Ye Qinglan.
Ye Qinglan's eyes were still calm and soft, and there was a slight smile on the corner of her lips, just like usual.
Somehow, Cui Wan's panicked and frightened heartbeat suddenly calmed down. She took a deep breath and calmly said, "Thirteenth sister, you are right. I am really troubled by one thing these days."
Ye Qinglan was secretly happy. Although she did not use hypnosis just now, she used her eyes and body language to give Cui Wan psychological hints. It seems that the effect is indeed good. Cui Wan is finally not so depressed!
No matter how strong a person's psychological defense is, as long as there is a small gap, she can use this gap to open the other person's heart. Cui Wan is already willing to speak, which is a good start.
"This matter must be related to Aunt Cui!" Ye Qinglan paid close attention to Cui Wan's reaction.
Cui Wan was no longer surprised by her sensitivity and nodded silently.
Ye Qinglan's mind started spinning rapidly, and she followed Cui Wan's words and speculated: "After Aunt Cui became pregnant, my cousin naturally treated her better than before. However, my cousin has never been the kind of person who likes to be sour and jealous.
.You shouldn’t have to stay up all night just because of this.”
Cui Wan smiled at herself: "You know me very well." Another woman is pregnant with her husband's flesh and blood. This is not good news for any woman. However, she has her own pride and dignity.
She would never show any weakness in front of others. Even in front of her husband Ye Yuanwei, she would try her best to pretend to be happy.
What a pitiful and ridiculous self-esteem! But if even this bit of dignity is gone, how can she hold on?
"My cousin is kind-hearted, but she is soft on the outside and tough on the inside." Ye Qinglan stared at Cui Wan: "It must be no small thing to make my cousin worried all day long and sleepless at night!"
Every sentence is on point.
Cui Wan fell silent and refused to answer any more questions.
Ye Qinglan had already expected that today's conversation would not go well. Cui Wan and Gu Xiyu were completely different. Gu Xiyu had a simple temperament, was very understanding of her thoughts, and trusted her wholeheartedly. Therefore, the psychological treatment had been going very smoothly. Cui Wan, on the other hand, had a delicate mind.
, she likes to hide whatever is on her mind and refuses to speak out. If she wants to completely open Cui Wan's heart, she must take the unexpected and break through her psychological defense!
"Did your mother tell you that when Aunt Cui gives birth to a child, she will leave the child to her mother?"
This sentence, like a ground-breaking shock, fell on Cui Wan's heart word by word.
Cui Wan could no longer pretend to be calm and composed. She stood up suddenly, her face pale and bloodless: "You...how did you know?"
Of course it was inferred! She had dealt with patients with various illnesses in her previous life, and had already developed the ability to infer the other person's thoughts from the changes in their words, body movements, and expressions. Cui Wan's thoughts were actually not
It's not very difficult to guess. Apart from Cui Jing and the child in her belly, what else could make Cui Wan so abnormal?
Ye Qinglan also stood up. She was half a head shorter than Cui Wan. She had to raise her head slightly to look at Cui Wan: "Sister-in-law, this is why you have been tossing and turning these days! You are kind-hearted.
, I don’t want to take away Aunt Cui’s child and even kill her. But what your mother said makes sense. If Aunt Cui gives birth to a son, your status will be threatened. Maybe one day in the future, your cousin’s
Your heart will be completely biased towards Aunt Cui. Therefore, you are conflicted and in pain, and you can't sleep at night!"
Cui Wan's breathing was rapid and unsteady, and her hands were trembling: "You...you..." You said for a long time, but couldn't say a word.
At this moment, her heart was agitated. The secret hidden deep in her heart was just revealed by Ye Qinglan. She suddenly felt panic and uneasiness about being exposed to everything... Perhaps, there was also unspeakable shame and self-blame...
"Actually, you don't agree with your mother's actions at all. You simply can't bear to deal with Aunt Cui. Even if she is not your cousin, she is still a human life. You simply can't do this." Ye Qinglan said softly:
"You are just blaming yourself for actually being moved by this proposal..."
Cui Wan's nose felt sour, and tears immediately burst into her eyes.
Ye Qinglan sighed softly, stepped forward, and gently took Cui Wan's hand: "I know you must feel very uncomfortable. If you want to cry, just cry happily!"
Cui Wan had already burst into tears, her tears fell down, and her eyesight became blurry.
What Ye Qinglan said was absolutely correct. She was indeed feeling deep self-blame and guilt. Because after He said those words, she actually felt a little moved. She even secretly thought about what would happen if Cui Jing really gave birth.
What should I do on that day...
Although she quickly gave up the idea, the dark thought seemed to have taken root in her heart and could no longer be removed.
Whenever she sees Cui Jing, she can't help but think of that nightmare. Thinking of the woman screaming in a pool of blood. Then, the whole person seems to have fallen into a cold and dark abyss...
Cui Wan didn't know how long she cried. After crying, her voice became hoarse.
Ye Qinglan never said a word, just stood beside her quietly, holding her cold hand tightly.
Ye Qinglan's hands were small, slender, soft and warm. These small hands seemed to have infinite power, pulling her out of the cold and dark abyss.
Cui Wan's crying finally stopped. Her eyes were already red and swollen, her hair was messy, her face was pale, and she looked very embarrassed. But her expression was much calmer and calmer than before.
"Thirteenth sister, thank you." Cui Wan said in a low voice.
Ye Qinglan's expression was still so gentle and calm: "Sister-in-law, you don't need to thank me. In fact, you will be able to survive even without me." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to recommend it.
