Xia Yangyang didn’t expect Gu Mingzhu to be startled.
She hurried over.
She picked up the flower pot from the floor.
The flower pot was cracked.
It seemed to be a top-grade Tang tri-color, quite valuable.
The fairy orchid was also broken.
It’s said that this kind of orchid blooms only once every few years.
Gu Mingzhu had been growing it for two years, but it hadn’t bloomed yet.
Xia Yangyang had an indescribably complex feeling in her heart.
“I’m sorry, sis, I didn’t mean to.”
Gu Mingzhu, however, looked at the flower without any emotion: “Forget it, throw it away.”
“But this is a fairy orchid, they’re so rare.”
Gu Mingzhu only had this one.
“It’s already dead, it’s useless, why should I keep it.”
Xia Yangyang found that Gu Mingzhu’s voice was much colder than usual.
Her gaze towards Xia Yangyang was also like a layer of floating ice.
She was a completely different person from the Gu Mingzhu Xia Yangyang used to know.
Actually, Xia Yangyang hadn’t been home for a long time.
She hadn’t spoken to Gu Mingzhu since her last birthday party.
But, Xia Yangyang understood.
Gu Mingzhu was like this because of the rare orchid.
She had spent two years carefully nurturing it, but it was ruined because of her.
Xia Yangyang’s eyes were filled with guilt.
Gu Mingzhu continued tending to other plants, her voice indifferent:
“Nothing’s wrong, you can go first.”
Actually, Xia Yangyang wanted to ask something, but she didn’t know how to bring it up.
She could only stand there holding the pot.
Gu Mingzhu straightened up: “Is there something on your mind?”
“Sis, I have a question for you.”
Gu Mingzhu frowned, as if out of reflex.
But she asked: “What do you want to ask?”
Xia Yangyang hesitated for a moment, but she simply brought it up: “Sis, do you know a person named Tan Zhen? She’s my birth mother.”
If Tan Zhen really knew her mother, and they were even good friends.
Then she could find out more about what happened back then from Gu Mingzhu.
No matter the truth, Xia Yangyang just wanted to know more.
But when Xia Yangyang said this name.
Gu Mingzhu’s body visibly stiffened.
Her face unexpectedly turned pale, and her eyes were filled with turbulent emotions.
All of this made Xia Yangyang curious why Gu Mingzhu reacted this way when she heard her mother’s name.
But at the same time, Yangyang was sure that Gu Mingzhu knew her mother.
“I don’t know her.”
Gu Mingzhu suddenly responded coldly.
When Yangyang looked at Gu Mingzhu again, she had already turned around and was seemingly naturally tending to a lily-olden.
“Sis, think about it, do you really not know her?”
“Yangyang, I told you I don’t know this person, I’ve never even heard this name before, why are you asking me all this?”
For some reason, Xia Yangyang felt as if her heart was being weighed down by a stone, she was actually a bit out of breath.
She also felt immensely disappointed and confused.
“Never mind, I was just asking.” Xia Yangyang replied softly.
At this moment, Gu Zhaohan appeared at the door: “It’s time for dinner.”
After speaking, Gu Zhaohan looked at Xia Yangyang, then left.
Xia Yangyang exited too, still holding the broken fairy orchid in her arms.
Gu Mingzhu didn’t move, seemingly invested in tending to the plants.
After Gu Zhaohan and Xia Yangyang had left.
Gu Mingzhu’s legs gave out, and she suddenly slumped onto a nearby swing chair..
