Chapter 51: Chapter 51 An Residence

The sugar-coated haws in her mouth were obviously sweet, but An Ying was no longer in the same state of mind as before!

She packed the remaining ones she hadn’t finished into a bag.

Just as she was about to leave, her eyes seemed glued to something, unable to look away!

Unknowingly, she had arrived at the end of the alley.

In sight was a courtyard house standing, with the words "An Residence" on the plaque, exceptionally striking.

As she looked, tears streamed down An Ying’s face!

Fearing she might cry out loud, she reached out to steady herself against the wall, trying hard to control her emotions. Her mask was soaked with tears, sticking uncomfortably to her face.

While she was full of sorrow, a man and a woman walked by, casually chatting with each other.

The woman gossiped, "I went by several times with Li the sesame cake seller, but never saw the owner of this house come out..."

The man was also full of curiosity, "I did see a middle-aged man pacing in the yard, even went up to say a word to him, and he told me he wasn’t the owner of the house."

The woman snorted, "Maybe he’s got three heads and six arms, not fit for human eyes!"

The woman’s tone was sour, as this yard was huge and in an excellent location; whoever could afford it must have significant economic resources!

Hearing the woman’s words, the man patted her arm, "We should hurry up and get to work. Staring at other people’s yards isn’t going to make us any money."

The woman impatiently shouted at the man, "I know, stop yelling!"

Then the two left, looking rather disgruntled.

Their words fell into An Ying’s ears without missing a single one.

From her view of the An Residence, she could vaguely see a corner of the yard.

An Ying saw a bamboo chaise lounge, standing lonely there, next to it was a stone table...

The rest of the yard was blocked by a wall.

Just as An Ying was lost in her thoughts, she caught sight of a middle-aged man quickly walking out from inside, and An Ying hurriedly turned to the side, walking stiffly along the wall. Fortunately, there were many pedestrians at the moment, so he probably wouldn’t notice her.

Inside the An Residence, the middle-aged man walked out of the gate, looking at the people coming and going on the street. He was about to withdraw his gaze but was attracted by a woman not far away. From a distance, her figure was graceful, walking with light steps, full of charm. Just seeing her back, one could guess her looks were extraordinary!

Sharp-eyed, he also noticed the woman was carrying a bag with half a sugar-coated hawthorn exposed.

Unfortunately, she was just a passerby, not someone looking for the gentleman!

The middle-aged man reluctantly withdrew his gaze, watching as the sun was about to set. Another day was almost over, and his anxiety grew by the minute.

He felt sorry for the gentleman!

The gentleman had waited for so many years, why couldn’t he find the person he was looking for!

Suppressing his worries, the middle-aged man petulantly kicked the corner of the wall to vent his frustration.

"Ouch..."

Kicking his toenail, the middle-aged man shouted in pain, then returned to the yard.

In the long alley, An Ying dared not stop her steps.

She could feel a faint pain in her heel, probably having a blister, forcing her to slow down.

By the time she walked out of Jianjia Alley, half an hour had passed.

An Ying looked up, gazing blankly at the vast sky. At this moment, the sky was filled with red clouds, making people feel joyful at heart!

Many hurried passersby took out their phones to capture the beauty!

An Ying lowered her eyelids, her fair and radiant face full of sorrow!

She took off her mask, revealing her beautifully sculpted face; unless she said so herself, no one could tell she was nearly forty. Her slender and graceful figure was full of charm! Even many passersby glanced at her in amazement.

An Ying found a Chinese restaurant nearby.

Then she sent a location to her daughter.

She sat by the window and, after telling the waiter she was waiting for someone, the waiter stepped aside to get busy.

This restaurant was on the sixth floor, while the other floors mainly featured shopping and hotels.

If she was going home tonight, it’d already be late; An Ying planned to stay here for the night.

Looking out through the panoramic window at the busy traffic, An Ying gradually fell into deep thought.

She shouldn’t have walked into that alley today; everything that happened in the past had already dissipated like clouds, she shouldn’t dwell on the past!

As for that person, he should be doing well!

And she shouldn’t disrupt his life anymore!

Thinking of this, a faint sadness appeared on her face.

It was nearly six when An Yin and Su Yifeng arrived at the restaurant.

After giving the seat number to the waiter, An Yin and Yifeng were led through the hall to the window area.

An Yin was the first to see her mother.

Just a few steps away, she wanted to speak but noticed her mother sitting desolately, her eyes lifeless, with an air of desolation and sorrow!

The An Ying before her was completely different from the mother she usually knew; unconsciously, An Yin had stopped walking, staring at her mother in confusion.

For a moment, An Yin thought this might be the real face of Ms. An Ying, and the gentle and elegant woman she had seen was just someone living with a mask!

"Why did you stop?" Su Yifeng, standing by her side, also paused, curious.

Following An Yin’s gaze, he saw Aunt An at the table, not noticing their arrival, always staring out the window; what was most hard to ignore was Aunt An’s sad appearance! Though Su Yifeng knew he shouldn’t speculate, An Yin’s mother was hard to overlook.

"Let’s go." Su Yifeng’s voice broke An Yin’s train of thought.

Soon, the two of them reached An Ying.

"Mom!"

"Aunt An!"

Their voices rang out almost simultaneously, causing An Yin and Su Yifeng to exchange glances and smile.

"You’re here!" An Ying instantly snapped back to reality at the sound of her daughter’s voice, a gentle smile gracing her face. Turning to Su Yifeng beside her daughter, she warmly said, "Xiao Su, have a seat!"

"Thank you, Aunt An!" Su Yifeng replied with a hearty laugh, sitting beside An Yin.

An Yin felt that if she hadn’t seen Ms. An’s sorrowful look herself, she wouldn’t have believed how quickly Ms. An could change her expression!

Which was the real Ms. An?

An Yin thought heavily.

Looking at the two people across from her, An Ying’s melancholy lessened considerably, but seeing her daughter’s worried expression, An Ying looked concerned, "Yinyin, what are you thinking about?"

An Yin raised her head, seriously glanced at her mother, then pursed her lips, "Nothing, nothing!"
