Floating Life Half Awake GL

On the wide street, a luxurious carriage was moving forward steadily.

In the carriage, Xia Lan, dressed in spotless white clothes, looked down softly at the little person in her arms. Even though she was asleep, her little brows were still frowning, and it seemed that a thousand years of melancholy had accumulated in her heart. Distressed.

I recalled that when I was on the street just now, when Xia Lan hugged Cen Nan into her arms, it didn't take long before there was a coolness from the neck, which went all the way to Xia Lan's heart.

But even though she felt the wetness on her shoulders getting bigger and bigger, Xia Lan never heard a whimper from the person in her arms from the beginning to the end, and even her breath was much weaker than usual.

Such an age, such a forbearance.

Xia Lan felt her heart tremble slightly, but she never looked at the face of the person in her arms, nor let others see it.

Because Xia Lan knew that Cen Nan would definitely not want them to see her at this moment...

It's just that at such an age, what exactly has been experienced, and how many things have been suppressed in that little heart, that's what makes it so.

At the time when it was supposed to be the most carefree, slender fingers gently caressed the small but tightly wrinkled brow, as if to brush away all the sadness and unhappiness.

Xu Shi was so tired from crying that Cen Nan didn't wake up until he returned to the palace, and Xia Lan didn't wake her up either, and carried her into the mansion directly, and then placed him on her bed.

After sitting by the bed for a while, Xia Lan just quietly exited the room and closed the door.

"Man'er, go and call Mo Yi and Mo Er"

study

Xia Lan was sitting on the chair that Cen Nan had sat on a few hours ago, and was seriously looking at the crooked but well-formed characters when Man'er walked in.

"Princess, Mo Yi and Mo Er are here"

"See Princess"

Xia Lan raised her head from behind the desk, and saw two young men in black clothes knelt down on one knee with their heads slightly lowered. These two were the guards of the palace who accompanied Xia Lan and Cen Nan just now.

"What happened on the street just now, why did Nan'er fall down?" Xia Lan carefully folded the rice paper in her hand, her tone was soft and soothing, but it gave people an invisible sense of oppression.

Mo Yi and Mo Er, who were kneeling below, unconsciously lowered their heads again, "Back to the princess, after Miss Nan'er left the woodcarving stall, she originally wanted to go to the jade stall opposite, but when Seeing the two women walking over, she stopped suddenly. Later, after seeing the two women walking by, Miss Naner suddenly chased after her, and then fell down. The subordinates should be damned for failing to take good care of the lady. , please punish the princess."

Mo Yi on the left kowtowed his head after replying, and Mo Er, who was kneeling beside him, kowtowed immediately afterward.

"Woman?" Xia Lan raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard the words, "How old are you?"

"One is about the year of knowing fate, and the other is about two decades", Mo always stood up and replied respectfully.

After coming out of Yuqianju, Xia Lan went straight to Cen Nan, not paying special attention to the people around, not to mention that there were many people on the street at that time, if there was no target in advance, it was almost difficult to find anything.

After thinking for a while, Xia Lan raised her eyelids slightly, and looked at the two kneeling upright with portrait faces, "Find out their identities, and report back to me immediately."

As soon as Mo Yi and Mo Er stepped back, Qing Ning, the maid serving Cen Nan, walked in quickly.

"Princess, Miss Nan'er is awake"

Hearing this, Xia Lan immediately got up and walked out of the study, "Man'er, go and get the cakes I bought today."

After Cen Nan woke up, he went straight to the back garden of the palace, and then found the most hidden corner by the pool and sat down.

Cen Nan sat on a boulder by the pool, staring blankly at the slight ripples on the lake surface, like tears swirling in his eyes, surging, but he tried his best not to let it fall.

Cen Nan couldn't help raising his head, but the approaching evening sun still seemed a little dazzling, a tear still slipped down from the corner of his eye uncontrollably, and then slowly sank into the black hair on his sideburns.

Cen Nan knew that although that person looked very similar, he was not, not her mother. Her mother loved her so much and loved her so much, she would never ignore her, let alone turn a blind eye to her.

But even knowing this was the case, she still couldn't help, couldn't help wanting to step forward.

It has been nearly three years since she left. I don’t know how is Mommy?

Cen Nan has been dependent on her mother since childhood, and to her mother, Cen Nan is her destiny.Now that she is gone, Cen Nan can't even imagine what will happen to her mother.

The tears seemed to be unbearable anymore and began to roll down, but even so, Cen Nan still didn't cry out.She just lowered her head, letting the tears flow freely.

She really wanted to go back, but she couldn't.

When she opened her eyes in this world for the first time and realized that she might have crossed over, she didn't cry or make a fuss, because she didn't want others to find herself, so she just wanted to die like this, and then return to the original world, back to the original world. mother's side.

But when she was dying, Sweet Potato found her, and she survived.

Later, when she was about one year old, she walked unsteadily to the edge of the stream, and then fell straight down, letting the cool stream water pour in from her mouth and nose, and her consciousness gradually became blurred.

At that moment, she seemed to see her mother. Her mother had lost a lot of weight. Looking at her with tears in her eyes, she told her to live on...

When she woke up again, she was already lying in the small cave under the cliff.

When Xia Lan brought Man'er to find them, she saw the little man with his back facing them, sitting on a big rock with his head down, his thin shoulders trembling from time to time.

Xia Lan's heart also tugged, but she didn't go forward, instead she stopped at the same spot, took the pastry from Maner's hand and signaled her to go down first, and then her eyes never left the villain not far away son.

It wasn't until the sky gradually became red and cloudy that Cen Nan raised his head, looked at the distance quietly for a while, and then stood up a little unsteadily, but he didn't get off the boulder immediately, but started to look at the water in a daze Preoccupied.

And Xia Lan, who had been standing not far behind Cen Nan, suddenly felt uneasy for no reason, but she still didn't make a sound until she saw Cen Nan suddenly take a step forward.

"Nan'er!"

Cen Nan turned around when he heard the sound, and saw Xia Lan who was walking towards her quickly, and then jumped off the rock, but she seemed to have forgotten that her body is only about three years old now, and her body balance is not very good, so Falling forward so uncontrollably.

I thought I was about to have the closest contact with the earth, but suddenly I smelled a fragrance in my nose, and fell into a soft and fragrant embrace in the next second.

Cen Nan blinked in a daze, and in the next second heard a soft sound from above his head, "Where did Nan'er fall?".

After reacting for a few seconds, Cen Nan raised his head abruptly, only to realize that he had just fallen headfirst into Xia Lan's arms. He didn't know whether it was embarrassment or shyness. Withdrew from his arms.

Seeing Cen Nan's bright red face, Xia Lan froze for a moment, then seemed to understand something, couldn't help but the corners of her lips rose, and smiled softly.

The moment Cen Nan raised his head, what he saw was Xia Lan's sweet smile, his heart started beating uncontrollably, and he hurriedly turned his head aside, just in time to catch a glimpse of the cakes scattered all over the floor.

"Sister Lan, I"

"I accidentally spilled it myself," Xia Lan said softly, and unconsciously raised her hand to caress Cen Nan's frown, looking at the bright red eyes in front of her, feeling pain in her heart It was obvious, "Sister Lan happened to be a little hungry, it would be nice for Nan'er to accompany me to eat some pastries."

Cen Nan nodded blankly, then Xia Lan still led her hand and walked to the backyard.

Xia Lan led Cen Nan back to her room, Man'er brought new pastries, and Qing Ning fetched a basin of water.

Cen Nan was about to put his hand in the basin to wash it clean, but Xia Lan took her hand and put it in the copper basin before her, and then gently washed it for her.

Cen Nangang wanted to refuse, but when he looked up and saw Xia Lan's serious and gentle expression, he swallowed the words of refusal.

Cen Nan remembers that when she was a child, her mother washed her hands in this way before eating. Even when she grew up, sometimes her mother would wash her hands for her. Every time at this time, Cen Nan would always say, "Mom, I I have grown up", and my mother always said with a smile, "No matter how old you are, in the eyes of mother, you are still a child".

After Xia Lan took the dry towel handed over by Man'er and wiped it gently, "Okay", when she looked up, she saw Cen Nan's eyes suddenly flushed, she was taken aback for a moment, and before she could speak, Cen Nan had already Head turned to the other side.

"Thank you"

After Xia Lan regained her senses, she quickly adjusted the expression on her face, reached out and picked up a piece of white pastry from the plate and handed it to Cen Nan.

"Come on, Nan'er, try this sweet-scented osmanthus cake"

Suppressing the sourness in his heart, Cen Nan raised his head, reached out to take the pastry, said thank you, and put it in his mouth to take a bite.

So sweet... Cen Nan chewed it twice, then swallowed it, and then ate the remaining half in his hand.

"How is it? Is it delicious?"

"Mmm, very sweet"

Xia Lan smiled warmly, and reached out to take another piece of mung bean cake to Cen Nan, "Try this mung bean cake again."

Cen Nan didn't say much, and put it into his mouth under Xia Lan's gaze.

Although it is not as sweet as the sweet-scented osmanthus cake just now, it is still sweet. After swallowing it twice, Cen Nan stood up, saluted Xia Lan and said

"Sister Lan, I've already eaten. I haven't finished the homework left by the master, so I'll go back to the study first."

"okay"

Xia Lan got up and sent Cen Nan to the door, watched her go straight to the right and walked into the study on the other side, then looked back at the plate of pastries on the table.

"sweet……"
