After the conversation with Leng Liewei, Bai Yiran felt particularly exhausted. It was already very late, and both children had been asleep for quite so ti. Bai Yiran went directly back to her bedroom, took a shower, and went to bed. That night, she had a dream, but it was a nightmare.
Chairman B’s words echoed in her mind, finally forming an image. F Country, when the building exploded again, Leng Yichen was inside, and under the intense impact of the explosion, Leng Yichen’s body was torn apart, becoming a bloody ss...
"Ah!" Bai Yiran woke up abruptly, and the sky was already bright. Her pajamas were soaked with cold sweat, and it was unclear whether the moisture on her face was sweat or tears.
Unprecedented helplessness and despair swept over Bai Yiran’s entire body. She curled up, hugged her head, and cried bitterly.
Since Leng Yichen’s accident, Bai Yiran had always displayed great strength, but at this mont, she could no longer endure it.
So much ti had passed already, and almost everyone around her had fallen into despair, including Leng Liewei, who had already prepared ntally for Leng Yichen’s absence.
Only Bai Yiran stubbornly held on to the persistence in her heart, firmly believing that Leng Yichen was alive. However, when everyone around her had lost hope, Bai Yiran’s solitary perseverance seed particularly helpless.
She began to doubt how long she could persist; she grew increasingly fragile and desperate, until hearing Chairman B’s words and experiencing this terrifying nightmare, completely shattered Bai Yiran’s tightly wound defenses. She was ultimately crushed.
Bai Yiran cried in the room for a long ti, her sobbing was so loud that even people outside the door could hear it.
Sister Liu and Luna stood quietly at her door, not daring to knock or step inside to comfort her, because at this mont any consolation for Bai Yiran would be futile and add fuel to the fire, only making her feel worse.
In the living room on the first floor, Leng Liewei held Xiao Xi on the sofa, while Xiao Lang watched a book alone on the carpet. Leng Liewei looked at these two children, thought of Bai Yiran crying in the room, and mist rose in Old Sang’s eyes. Leng Yichen was his only son, and if he really passed away, what would this whole family of the elderly, won, and children do?
Bai Yiran cried until she was completely powerless, lying hollow-eyed on the bed, reaching for the phone on the bedside table. During this ti, she called Gao Sheng almost every day to ask about the progress of events. She knew that Gao Sheng was a narcotics officer and not directly responsible for Leng Yichen’s case.
However, those officers responsible for Leng Yichen’s case seed to have already developed a mindset of giving up, and Bai Yiran didn’t want to communicate with them, so she called Gao Sheng every day to have him inquire, to have him investigate!
Over ti, calling Gao Sheng had beco Bai Yiran’s habit. She quickly dialed Gao Sheng’s number, and after one ring, Gao Sheng answered the phone.
"Officer Gao, is there any news about Leng Yichen?" Bai Yiran’s opening line was always this question, despite her eyes being red, swollen, and hollow. Even though her heart was already in despair, she still asked this question, as if it was an unconscious reaction from her brain.
"Yiran! I was just about to call you!" Gao Sheng’s voice was very excited.
Gao Sheng’s excited tone made Bai Yiran blink her eyelids, "What’s the matter?"
"There’s news about Leng Yichen!"
Bai Yiran stared with wide eyes, motionless, and Gao Sheng’s words caused her brain to montarily freeze; she didn’t know what to do, she even forgot to speak.
