Chapter 9

One is the biological mother who is deeply embedded in her heart

"Open the door," he said

Ye Qiaolu quickly waved her hand, "I don't know"

Ye Qiaolu thought for a long time and finally, during her free time, took up her pen to write a letter to her parents

Gradually, Shi Yu Mei began to express her complaints. The home she had worked so hard to tidy up was once again disrupted by the appearance of new boards after just a few days

In the previously desolate eastern fields, high-rise buildings have risen abruptly.

Open the door. He looked at her

His voice is deeper and more gravelly than it was four years ago. It sounds almost inhuman.

However, the current apartment I am living in is somewhat cramped

Shi Yu Mei let out a sigh of relief and repeatedly expressed her gratitude

The wooden door opens

If he knew that she slept in his bed, he might dismantle the bed... If she slept in his room, he might blow up the house...

Ye Chengfeng kept his wife's last words in mind. He worked diligently to provide a prosperous life for his daughter. Even in difficult times, he did not allow his daughter to be overly affected by negative emotions

"Qiao Yan, I have not let down your expectations." Ye Chengfeng smiled at Ye's mother, "My daughter is the best."

Her face turned pale as she watched his sleeve brush against her face, and then his hand came to rest against the wall

He patted his daughter's back and said, "Xiao Lu, you must never forget your mother. Her name is Zhang Qiaoyan. Although she was not able to be with you, she loves you more than anyone else."

Standing outside is Jack Robin Jing

The grievances accumulated deeper and deeper, and finally she had a quarrel with Ye Chengfeng

On the day she went out, she chose a plain white dress and tied her hair in a simple ponytail

Ye Qiao-lu nodded, looking at her mother's photograph, wishing to engrave her mother's appearance in her heart. Tears welled up in her eyes, "Mom, I love you too. I have always been fighting the little monsters, hoping to bring you back."

At this point, her heart was about to leap out of her throat. "You... why are you back?" Is it to settle the score for taking over her place?

The doorbell rang while the letter was only half written

He nodded again

She retreated to the wall, not daring to speak loudly, "Did you not leave with your father?"

The last time Ye Qiao met Ye Jing was four years ago. The young man before her seems somewhat familiar, yet he is different from the nine-year-old version of himself.

She is about to open her mind and study how to protect herself in this position

In the past, when she could not see Shi Yu Mei, she longed for her day and night. Now that she truly has a new mother, she feels lost. Will her mother be angry if she hears her calling someone else "mother"?

Ye Chengfeng appeared helpless, "I have always been like this."

He also wants to live for his own happiness

Then we need to calculate whether it is cost-effective to rent and maintain a house

Ye Chengfeng was wiping the fog off the mirror. Upon hearing her words, he turned to look at her and said, "Your neighbor will have something to say again."

Shi Yu Mei looked at him, the average price starting from 5,000. "Are you thinking that Xiao Lu must be able to get into one of those two schools?"

The house rented by Ye Chengfeng is on the ground floor and is very damp. Water is dripping from the walls, and the floor is so wet that it cannot be dried.

As the two individuals interact back and forth, their relationship becomes intimate, unfolding naturally

She ran to open the door

Seeing that her companions were unaware of Ye Jing's passing, she chose not to speak of it. Let the sorrowful matter remain in the depths of her heart alone

Suddenly, she remembered that ghosts do not have shadows. She quickly leaned forward to look at the ground

Ye Jing changed into slippers and walked towards her

Ye Qiaolu learned that she was going to meet her mother, and she was extremely excited. That night, she could not sleep at all, only thinking about what she would say to her mother when they met.

"I run over here every day, doesn't your neighbor say anything?" Shi Yumei retorted

Ye Chengfeng brought many sheets of material back home. After filling this corner, he moved on to other empty spaces.

He directly opened the door

In recent years, the relationship between Ye Chengfeng and Shi Yumei has been very harmonious; even when there were some frictions, they would dissipate within half a day. Who would have thought that this time, it actually caused a commotion for several days

She cannot defeat him

In 2001, the city center of City D shifted eastward

He spoke, "I want to turn on the light"

She gently unlocked the door and peeked her head out through the crack.

He stopped one foot away from her and extended his left hand towards her

However, father said that mother's greatest wish is for her daughter to be happy, safe, and carefree

Due to Shi Yumei's concerns, Ye Chengfeng's idea of purchasing a house has been put on hold

Luo Xi sometimes speaks of leaf diameter

Ye Qiaolu thought that she must be happy and safe in this lifetime, so that her mother could be at ease

His daughter inherited the kindness and innocence of his wife

Ye Qiaolu felt somewhat at a loss regarding the commotion caused by the parents' quarrel

Shi Yu Meishuoluo said: "You used to live in a big house, can I compare to that?"

The photo on the tombstone shows a bright smile. The curve of Ye Mama's lips is commonly seen on Ye Qiaolu's face. Ye Qiaolu's love for laughter is precisely inherited from Ye Mama

Shi Yu Mei was thinking, what if the government does not relocate eastward again? Moreover, since 1997, the housing prices in City D have remained relatively stable, and this price of 5,000 will not increase much in the future. What she did not know at this moment was that by 2016, the price in this area would reach 100,000 per square meter

He wants to give his daughter the greatest happiness

Ye Chengfeng looked at his wife's smile, tugging at Ye Qiao's hand, "Xiao Lu, this is your mother"

The room that originally belonged to Ye Jing has now become Ye Qiao's green space

Upon hearing this, Mei felt an immediate sense of clarity and brightness. Just as she was about to draft a lawyer's letter, her workplace changed its stance, stating that if she paid the additional processing fee, the house would belong to her.

Ye Jing noticed that she had not moved for a long time and said: "Open the door"

She heard the voice that seemed to come from hell, and her fear intensified. She swallowed hard and asked, "Are you... Ye Jing...?"

A faint shadow envelops his feet

Ye Qiaolu often plays with Luo Xi and the others

A father and daughter held hands while taking the bus. Along the way, Ye Chengfeng bought a large bouquet of white lilies

Ye Qiaolu thought that perhaps after becoming a ghost, his language skills had further declined, so he could only repeat these two words

Ye Chengfeng said: "What is there to be polite about"

Ye Qiaolu recently learned an idiom called "the cuckoo occupying the magpie's nest." She thus regarded herself as the cuckoo and Ye Jing as the magpie, applying it in her heart.

In the past two years, Ye Chengfeng has returned to the building materials business. Although it does not match the scale of his previous operations, he has managed to accumulate some savings

He nodded. After many years, she is still that little round ball. However, her features have become much more delicate compared to when she was nine years old

"Mother," Ye Qiaolu said softly, "I am very obedient, a good child..."

I still remember that day when she lay on his bed for a while, and he washed the sheets and blankets over and over again

They said that Ye Jing went to his father. However, no one knows where his father is

Since he was to move into Shi Yumei's home, being nameless and without ties would only invite trouble. Ye Chengfeng thought for a long time and finally, ten days later, took his daughter to the grave of his late wife

Hmm. He took out a new pair of slippers from his backpack

Ye Chengfeng slammed the door and left

She was startled, her gaze darting around his face and body. She did not dare to open the security iron door, her hand gripping the doorknob was so tense that it was sweating, and goosebumps rose on her back

The lawyer said that if there is an agreement, the chances of winning this lawsuit are significantly increased

As Zhang Qiaoyan was leaving, worried that he would follow her, she tightly grasped his hand, breathing heavily, "You must live on and lead a good life... If my husband and daughter are not happy in the future, I will not spare you even in death!"

Sometimes she sleeps on the small bed and thinks of Ye Jing

The closer they got to Mother Ye's grave, the more serious Ye Chengfeng's expression became

Shi Yu Mei then said, "Why not move in with me? If you leave here, you can save some rent."

She exclaimed and stepped back repeatedly. She looked uneasily at the shadow beneath his feet, confirming once again, "Are you Ye Jing?"

Shi Yu Mei nodded

Ye Chengfeng introduced his lawyer friend to Shi Yumei

The lawyer asked Shi Yumei whether her father had signed a housing purchase agreement with the company at that time

She does not know the answer

Ye Qiaolu looked up, her face tensing up in response

He saw the advertisement for the eastern real estate that day and said to Shi Yumei, "This development is quite good, as it is close to both universities"

Ye Chengfeng terminated the lease and moved to Xiangshan Street

She perked up her ears to listen

Isn't your father... not very far away from my mother?

Another is the gentle bestowal of beauty

Ye Qiaolu leaned against the wall, remaining completely still

I haven't thought that far ahead. However, it is indeed easy to rent near the school

In the past two years, the property prices in the eastern region sold well due to the speculation about the relocation of the city center. However, the prices have not been able to rise.

She sincerely hopes that he in heaven will not blame her for taking his mother, and for also taking his room and his little bed. To atone for her mistakes, she often recites prayers for Ye Jing, hoping that he will be reincarnated soon and have peace and joy in his next life

As she turned her head, she realized that she had blocked the light switch.

Qiao Yan. Ye Chengfeng half-squatted, "I found a new mother for Xiao Lu, and she cares for Xiao Lu very much. Xiao Lu likes her a lot... I also have a good impression of her. I told her that there will always be a place for you in my heart. She said she doesn't mind, and if I forget you, then she would be angry.

Upon arriving at the grave, Ye Chengfeng placed the bouquet down.

She understands that she is about to have two mothers

Ye Chengfeng threw away the rag, smiled, and said, "They all say that gossipers cannot stay idle."

Feng Youyun asked, "Xiao Luzi, do you know where Ye Jing's father is?"

She is a human, he is a ghost

Ye Qiao breathed a sigh of relief

In the spring of the following year, City D welcomed the return of the humid weather.
