I continued to make several calls, but D didn't answer the phone, stood up angrily and circled in the room, and finally paced back and forth in the room.

I was thinking about whether to fly to the U.S. to directly look for D. She asked her face to face. Suddenly the phone rang. She turned around and rushed back to the sofa to pick up the phone. When she saw an unfamiliar number, she hesitated to pick it up.

"well."

The moment he heard the sound, the light in Anhao's eyes dimmed instantly: "Something?"

An Ping heard Anhao’s indifferent voice, and was afraid that she would just hang up the phone. After all, the child has never been willing to answer Anjia’s calls for so many months. This time, she wanted to talk to her while it was about to celebrate the New Year. To say something, she unexpectedly picked it up.

"My child, tomorrow is the New Year. Your grandpa and grandma want to see you. We want to spend the New Year with you in City A. Also, after more than half a year of exchanges, and your father's persistence, your grandpa has now let go of his old attachments. I have read it, and your grandfather also missed you very much. He has always liked you very much, but he couldn't overcome the obstacle in his heart, but now he has figured it out. You are an Anjia child and my daughter. We want to..."

"Sorry, Ms. An." Anhao interrupted her directly.

When Anhao spoke softly, her tone was cool and there was no temperature, and she couldn't hear any emotional ups and downs: "I am not interested in what happened in your family more than 20 years ago, so what have you communicated and done in the past six months? It’s nothing to do with me or what you want to do now. Please don’t call me again. I’ve been alone.”

"Good, Mom knows that you have hatred in your heart, and that you are still sad because of the Cold City incident. Mom is very worried about you and wants to be with you, but you have been repelling me. I don't want myself to appear. It affects your life and your mood, but my child, it’s the New Year. Since our family of three are still living in this world, should we cherish the present? No matter what kind of past we have, we can sit down and talk. Isn’t it good for our family to reunite in the new year?"

"Reunion?" An Hao chuckles: "Ms. An, the so-called eight years or nine years is actually not important to me. If you really want to look carefully, I was fourteen when you left, and I will pass it now. A few months is my twenty-fourth birthday, and that is ten years. During these ten years, I am used to being alone, and I am also used to being alone during the New Year. I don’t need anyone to accompany me, let alone. Need to be reunited, if you really show up in front of me, I'm afraid I will not be comfortable."

"Good, listen to mom..."

"Ms. An, if there is nothing else, I will hang up. I'm sorry I can't accompany you to reunite with you. In terms of blood relationship, I won't be torn apart with any of you, but I won't be with you either. Many contacts, I wish you a happy New Year in advance. By the way, please tell An Xin for me. I will not rob her mother, nor will I rob her of her life and her status in Anxin."

After a moment of silence on the phone, An Ping whispered: "An Xin has gone..."

Anhao frowned. Although she couldn't understand the meaning of these two words, she didn't intend to ask more.

"She was afraid that the card in her hand would be frozen, so she directly withdrew ten million dollars in cash and left. She has been missing for half a year. She has never returned or contacted anyone at home."

Anhao held the phone in silence, but couldn't even say a word of comfort.

She knew that An Ping didn't take herself back back then because of her difficulties, but she had been too lazy to listen to these difficulties.

She also knows that An Xin is actually a stand-in for herself. Because she looks a lot like herself, An Ping couldn’t bring herself back. So after seeing An Xin, she took them home to take care of, in fact, to fill the missing things in her heart. .

Adopting an orphan is a kind of virtue, and she is not to blame for being well. What she blames is that An Ping suspected that she was fighting with An Xin at the beginning, but more, I am afraid that after ten years of separation between mother and daughter, she is already the most familiar stranger relationship.

Having experienced life and death, experienced loss and gain, Anhao has long since ceased to be attached to anything.

Therefore, no matter what the story is about An Ping and Mr. Arel, no matter what the story is about An Xin and Mr. Arel, no matter what happened to them more than 20 years ago, she no longer cares about these.

"Ms. An, Happy New Year." After An Hao finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

When I put the phone on the sofa, I looked at the computer on the coffee table again.

There was a big empty space in her heart. She wanted to catch something but couldn't catch it. She could imagine how uncomfortable An Ping would be after hanging up the phone, but everyone in this world is so selfish. Others have their own difficulties and their own reasons for selfishness.

Then don't torture each other anymore, separated from the family for ten years, and barely get together, nothing more than filling the longings and gaps in the hearts of some old people and those years of regret.

Why do you want her to fill those gaps now? She has never seemed so loving and kind.

*****

This winter is really much colder than every year.

When Anhao went out every morning, she wanted to wrap her in a coat and then a down jacket. Lin Qing said that she would buy a mink coat for her to wear. He also said that it was loose and warm, but Anhao declined.

Mink coat? Her belly is now more than seven months old, like a watermelon. If she puts on a mink coat, she will be a lively bear. If she goes out round and round, she can be caught and locked up in the zoo like a national treasure. .

And she didn't want to dress up like a nouveau riche.

After following Lin Qing to participate in a business event in the afternoon, he sat in the car and was too tired.

"How is it? You are now thirty-two weeks pregnant, and your body is getting heavier and heavier. Another eight weeks is the expected date of delivery. If it doesn't work, you should rest at home for these two months, and leave the company affairs to the vice president and Mo Bai. Over there..." Lin Qing said with concern while passing the thermos to Anhao.

Anhao inhaled the red nose that had just been frozen outside and said nothing, because the business activities she had just participated in were a bit complicated, and she was still immersed in the atmosphere just now thinking about countermeasures.

Lin Qing's words just passed in her ears, and she turned her eyes out of the window after drinking the water.

A black RV galloped past, the windows were slightly open, and the pale side faces of the people in the car flashed past.

The thermos cup in Anhao's hand suddenly slipped from her hand, and a piece of warm water spilled on her feet and on the leather chair.

"Good? What's wrong..." Lin Qing looked back at her.

Before Lin Qing's words fell, he only saw Anhao rushing out without even wearing the coat just put in the car.
