"Oh, keep walking inside until you reach the very end. There is a small bungalow there, and he lives there."
"Thank you!" Song Ziyi walked inside. She carefully discovered that most of the people living here were Asians. The environment was not ideal, but the small bungalows were very clean.
Song Ziyi walked to the deepest part of this alley. There was only a narrower bungalow in the deepest part, which seemed out of place with this street and Rome.
Her heart was raised and she was a little nervous...
No matter what, this is how a daughter-in-law feels when she meets her parents-in-law.
Knocked on the door, "Excuse me, is anyone here?"
After a long time, a delicate response came, and then the door opened. However, what caught Song Ziyi's eyes was an old and over-the-top face. Not only was there a huge difference between her voice and her voice, but also the body she looked at at this time.
Not as old as this face.
"Miss, who are you looking for?" She spoke in Italian. Song Ziyi didn't understand. She tried to ask in Chinese, "My name is Song Ziyi. I want to know if Mr. Bai Zifeng lives here..."
"Are you looking for Zifeng?"
She can speak Chinese.
Song Ziyi nodded hurriedly, "I just met him at the market, and I have some things to do about his son -"
"son……"
Before Song Ziyi finished speaking, the old woman's expression changed instantly...it was all disbelief and shock.
"Mother-in-law, are you—"
Song Ziyi couldn't believe his guess.
The old woman's expression was slightly stiff, and she suddenly changed the subject, "What, what son... Miss, you have found the wrong person..."
After saying that, she made a gesture to close the door. Song Ziyi hurriedly put a hand in. She was startled, and the old woman was also startled.
"Miss, you-"
Song Ziyi smiled dryly, "Mother-in-law, I am Bai Li's wife."
"..."
After hearing this, the old woman couldn't help but look at Song Ziyi twice. What should I say about her expression? It was more...consideration, and then...relief?
Song Ziyi smiled slightly, "Mother-in-law, can you buy me a glass of water? I've been looking all the way here, I'm so tired..."
The old woman looked even more embarrassed and hesitant, and finally she let go of the door.
"come in."
Song Ziyi nodded and walked in. There was a very narrow corridor. You could enter the old woman's house by crossing the corridor. As soon as you entered, Song Ziyi smelled a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine. He was actually the same as when he first met Bai Li.
The body smell is almost the same.
The room is small, but everything is quite complete...
An old bed, old bedding, a small table, and a small stove...
Although it is well-equipped, it makes the already small space seem even more crowded.
"Sit here."
Song Ziyi looked at the gray chair, feeling an indescribable sadness in her heart, and sat down.
The old woman bent over and took a glass from the stove. The rim of the glass was somewhat damaged. She wanted to replace it but found that all the glasses seemed to be broken... so she had to squeeze the one in her hand and rinse it over and over again before pouring some.
The hot water was handed to Song Ziyi's hand, "Miss, please use it."
Song Ziyi took it with both hands and held it in his palms. It was a little hot, but very warm...
"Mother-in-law, sit down."
The old woman sat on the edge of the bed with her body curled up, her eyes somewhat sunken. She watched quietly as Song Ziyi blew the water and then took a sip naturally.
Song Ziyi raised his eyes to face her and smiled again. The old woman was at a loss for a moment.
Song Ziyi took a deep breath, "You are...Bai Li's mother, right?"
The old woman wanted to shake her head, but was stopped by Song Ziyi's slight slap, "Uncle Bai and A Li look so similar, there is no way they are not father and son, and A Li can also recognize him, so please stop lying to me."
The old woman raised her eyes and looked at Song Ziyi, wanting to say something but she fell silent.
Song Ziyi looked around the small room, and what attracted her attention the most was——
She stood up and said, "Mother-in-law, that photo -"
The old woman looked at the photo on the bedside and frowned even more.
Song Ziyi's mood suddenly brightened. She walked over and said, "Mother-in-law, can you show me?"
The old woman wanted to stop her but felt that her behavior would be too weird and she was afraid of scaring this beautiful and noble-looking girl...
The glass surface of the photo frame was clean. It was a photo of a family of three. The child in the photo... was undoubtedly Bai Li. So he was so cute when he was a child?
"A Li... he must have been very well-behaved when he was a child, right?" Song Ziyi's eyebrows were bent as she smiled. Just looking at the photo, she seemed to be able to imagine an entire period of time that belonged to him. Even if it was just a sporadic picture, she could
I want to piece together a complete childhood for him in my heart.
The old woman still pursed her lips and did not speak.
"I really want to know more about A Li... If it's about A Li, even if I don't eat or sleep for three days, I won't feel tired." Song Ziyi carefully took the photo
After putting it away, she looked sideways at the old woman, her eyes a little red.
"Mother-in-law... why did you sell A Li? He looks so good and obedient..."
After Song Ziyi's words, the old woman burst into tears.
Covering her face, she had fallen into the nightmare that had tortured her over the years and was about to collapse.
Song Ziyi sniffed, "How could you sell a twelve-year-old child who has just become sensible, who has just begun to understand the principles of the world, and who has just begun to understand the people around him..."
"me……"
"Or sold it to an underground laboratory... He has been an experimental subject for twelve years. He is tortured between life and death every day. The pain he endures every day... Can you imagine it?"
The old woman covered her face tightly and could no longer say a word.
Song Ziyi closed his eyes, "Is it because of poverty? Or is it because of other reasons?"
"Don't ask, don't ask..."
"No matter what the reason was, you changed his life and almost turned him into a twisted... monster!"
"Woooo..."
The old woman's cry was so sad that Song Ziyi could even hear the helplessness of this elderly woman from the old woman's cry...
Suddenly, Bai Zifeng came back. The first thing he did when he walked into the house was to pull Song Ziyi over, "Get out of here!"
"Uncle Bai!"
"Get out! Who are you! Who asked you to come in casually!" Bai Zifeng was obviously even more excited. He dragged Song Ziyi and threw him out without mercy. The high heels Song Ziyi was wearing sprained and he fell down.
The pain at the door was so painful that she was forced to cry.
With a "bang", the door was closed.
Song Ziyi frowned, got up from the ground, walked to the door and knocked, "Uncle Bai! Mother-in-law! If you made mistakes in the past, don't give up the opportunity to make up for it!"
"If you bark at our door again, I will come with a broom to drive you away!"
A man's roar came from the door, and Song Ziyi took a deep breath, "Uncle Bai! My mother-in-law cried so hard, I knew there was a reason why you sold him back then! You have also met A Li, why don't you recognize him?"
"Uncle Bai, he is not living as well as you imagined. The reason why you sold him back then was very important to him! It is also very important to me! A Li is much more reticent than ordinary people.
Life doesn’t even matter! If you want to compensate him, why don’t you do it now?!”
"roll--!"
Song Ziyi was not afraid of men's roars at all. She felt that God allowed her to see them and find them for a reason.
“I will come again!”
Song Ziyi said angrily, took off his shoes, held them in his hands and limped out of the alley.
When she returned to the hotel, she saw Bai Li sitting in the lobby downstairs, looking a little anxious.
"Ali? What's wrong?"
Hearing Song Ziyi's voice, he stood up and asked, "Where have you been?"
"Oh... let's go to the mall!" Song Ziyi was confused as soon as he finished speaking, and his hands were empty.
Bai Li frowned again.
"But I didn't see anything good, so I didn't buy it." Song Ziyi smiled dryly.
Bai Li took a deep breath and put his arm around her waist, "Okay, let's go back."
"kindness……"
"What's wrong with your feet?"
After just two steps, Bai Li noticed something strange about her and stopped.
"Twisted..."
Bai Li hurriedly bent down and picked her up, "Look at the road."
Song Ziyi hooked his neck, his expression was not without blame, but more of a feeling of distress...
She believed that this man was not abandoned by his parents, but was deeply loved by his parents.
She might be too bored to hold on to his past, but...even if Bai Li always said it didn't matter, Song Ziyi still felt that having parents was much better than not having them.
After returning to the room, Bai Li hugged her and sat on the sofa. Zhang Zifan came over and asked, "What's wrong with this foot?"
"Twisted."
Bai Li sat next to her and asked her to put her feet up on him. He held her ankles and said, "Here?"
"kindness……"
He rubbed slowly and rhythmically, placing his warm hands on her ankles...
Zhang Zifan, who was standing aside, looked at Song Ziyi with admiration, with an expression that said, "You are so lucky."
"Zhang Zifan, please give me a glass of water. I'm so thirsty."
"Hey! You're really good at summoning people."
"You're still hanging around my house! With the way you think about A Li, you would throw an ordinary woman out of the window! I just asked you to pour me a glass of water, and you're still making irresponsible remarks!"
"Okay, I'll pour it!" Zhang Zifan walked into the kitchen, reluctantly brought out a glass of water and handed it to Song Ziyi.
"Thanks."
Zhang Zifan sat aside, flipping through a magazine, and couldn't help but look up and down at Song Ziyi, who had obvious stains on her body. It was impossible for her to go to the mall...
At this time——
"Ding dong——!"
The doorbell rang.
"Who is it?" Song Ziyi blinked and looked at Bai Li, "Hubby, do we have guests today?"
"kindness."
"..." Zhang Zifan ran over to open the door suspiciously——
