Backlight [Rebirth]

In the car, Bai Yilan looked out of the car window with a sense of loss, and a hot tear fell down.

Gu Xinran saw it, raised her hand and gently stroked her hair, without asking too much, moved to her side, and hugged her in her arms.

Bai Yilan was so comforted by her, all kinds of grievances surged up, she turned around and hugged her, and buried her face in the crook of her neck.

Fang Jinghai, who was driving in front, looked confused and shivering. She didn't understand why these two people came out less than an hour after entering, and they were the only two who came out!Besides, Sister Lan's complexion has always been ugly, and now she even started to cry...! ?

Yi Lan sobbed softly, sobbing so badly, Gu Xinran was heartbroken, and patted her on the back lightly, "I'm here, I'm here."

Bai Yilan realized her gaffe, took a few deep breaths, suppressed the rising sobs, hugged Xinran for a while, and then broke free from her arms.

She wiped her tears with a tissue, and the tip of her nose was slightly red.

Gu Xinran took a look at the roads around her, seeing that she was not far from her home, she asked Fang Jinghai to stop the car, and took Yi Lan's hand to walk home.

The night breeze was cool, Gu Xinran took a coat and helped her put it on.

"Go and sit over there." Yi Lan pointed to the pond in the park.

"Ah."

When the two came to the pond, Gu Xinran spread the clothes on the stone and asked her to sit down.

She quietly watched the circles of ripples in the pond blown by the breeze.

Gu Xinran looked at her quietly.

Neither of them spoke.

"That's... my mother." Bai Yilan murmured softly.

Gu Xinran was startled, although she already had a guess in her heart, but she was shocked when she really heard Yi Lan say it!

Who would have thought that the top leader in the fashion circle was Yi Lan's biological mother!

Gu Xinran's heart sank, and she frowned slightly, "Then, Bai Yiyue is...?"

"It's my half-sister, three years older than me."

Gu Xinran nodded, feeling that something was wrong again.

"Half father? Wasn't Bai Yiyue's mother at that time?"

Bai Yilan looked at her, and shook her head lightly, "My biological daughter sits under the stage, and she doesn't get a glance from her, but she treats her adopted daughter as a treasure and takes great care of her."

"Isn't it ridiculous?"

Gu Xinran gently stroked her head, letting her stick to her heart, "Why?"

"Maybe, for her, I'm useless."

"I'm an illegitimate daughter, and I can't even enter my name in the family tree. The Bai family doesn't recognize me as a daughter."

"When I was five years old, she gave me to my current adoptive mother. To this day, I can count the number of times I see her on one hand."

"Why?"

Bai Yilan took a deep breath, her eyes were deep, as if she was caught in a certain memory.

"I was five years old that year. Both my father and Bai Yiyue's mother passed away. My mother took care of all the big and small affairs of the family. She was too busy to take care of me. That day, Bai Yiyue and I were at home alone. She I accidentally fell down the stairs and broke my leg, but insisted that I pushed her down, and all the nannies and servants at home also agreed. I was so wronged at the time, so I just grabbed my mother's hand and followed her Say I didn't, I really didn't."

"But she didn't believe me at all."

"In the next few days, she stayed by Bai Yiyue's side almost every step of the way, completely ignoring me. I was terrified and sad every day. I couldn't understand, it was Bai Yiyue who fell down by herself, why did everyone Even my mother snubbed me for it. I was terrified that she would be like everyone else and think I was a bad kid who would push people down the stairs."

"I spent a few days in anxiety. That day, she came to my room. I thought she was here to listen to my explanation, but she asked the servant to pack my luggage and drove me out of the house."

"That day, she looked so cold that I had never seen before. She didn't even look at me, she just sent me away coldly."

"I saw Bai Yiyue standing behind her, grabbing the hem of her clothes. She looked at me and was smiling very complacently. Just like when she walked towards me with a smile just now."

After Gu Xinran heard this, her heart throbbed and she felt very angry, "Just because of such a small thing??"

"Later I sneaked home, but lost my way. It was dark, and I sat on the side of the road, looking at the houses across the street. The lights were turned on one by one. Everyone has a home, but I I don’t know where my home… is.”

Bai Yilan choked with sobs. To this day, she can still recall that cold night, the deep despair and helplessness. She still remembers that night, she was looking forward to the warm embrace of her parents, recalling With the once warm home.

Gu Xinran was annoyed, but when she saw Yi Lan's sad appearance, she quickly calmed down, stroked her cheek, and wiped away her tears, "Don't think about her."

"You still have me."

Bai Yilan looked up at her, with tears in her eyes, trying not to let them fall.

Smiling slightly, he touched Gu Xinran's cheek, "Fortunately, I have you."

……

At night, Bai Yilan lay on her side, curled up, hugged the quilt in her arms, and fell asleep deeply.

Gu Xinran sat by the bed, looked at her quietly for a while, looked at Yi Lan's frown tightly, raised her hand gently, and smoothed it for her.

He turned up the temperature of the air conditioner, then got up lightly, went to the study, and dialed Fang Yi's phone.

"Hey... Sister Ran, what happened in the middle of the night?"

"Don't sleep yet, please do something, check someone for me."

"Okay, who is it?"

"Shiqing, help me find out how she married into the Bai family."

"Eh? Hey, I seem to have spotted this somewhere. Wait, I'll turn on the computer."

"Ah."

Not long after, there was a crackling sound of typing on the keyboard from the phone.

"Miss Ran, are you still there?"

"Well, you said."

"It's really a coincidence that this happened. A while ago, Sister Qi asked me to investigate Shiqing's background. At that time, I didn't find anything. The foundation was as clean as white paper. But two days ago, I got into it. A small group of paparazzi saw them discussing a shocking melon. They said that a certain giant in the fashion circle was a mistress who forced the death of his first wife and conceived before marriage. After a bizarre and sudden death, she became the head of the family and turned the company into a leader in the fashion circle."

"When I saw the previous news, I didn't realize who it was, but the following ones can be compared with Shi Qing. After all, the giant in the fashion circle can easily be thought of as her."

Gu Xinran was also a little dazed when she heard such words as "the mistress' superior forced the death of her original partner" and "pregnant before marriage". Yes, she couldn't be associated with these words no matter what.

But after thinking about it, Yi Lan said that she was an illegitimate daughter, and Bai Yiyue was her half-sister, which means that before Shi Qing married into the Bai family, Yi Lan's father should have had a wife, and the two People already have Bai Yiyue.

"Wait, where did you say this news came from?"

"An inner group of paparazzi."

"What does that mean? Is someone going to break the news?"

"It looks like, by the way, did you read the trending search at night? The article about Shi Qing's resignation is really strange. Shi Qing's name has always been a taboo in the circle, whether it's in the entertainment circle or the fashion circle. In order to show respect for her, her name will never be mentioned in the news, but today's hot search is calling her by her name, as if someone deliberately arranged it. As soon as this person was delegated power, the hot search was arranged, which is a bit thing."

Gu Xinran nodded and thought for a while.

"Help me check Bai Yiyue and Mingqian."

"Bai Yiyue? Why is this name so similar to the proprietress's name..." Fang Yi muttered in a low voice, and immediately started typing on the keyboard.

"Bai Yi...I'll go! This person, this background, is perfect." Fang Yi exclaimed.

"how?"

"Bai Yiyue, female, 32 years old, father Bai Chengli, mother Xue Jiahan, this Bai family is the original family of Wei Yi, the Xue family is also a big rich family, but they are well-matched, this is really a young lady who was born with a golden spoon in her mouth. Reincarnated. Eh? But when she was five years old, her mother passed away, and she was fostered under Shi Qing's name, and Shi Qing took care of her and taught her as if she was her own. She has already given the full power to take care of it. Hey, at the age of 32, he is in charge of such a big company, with the support of the wealthy Xue family behind him, it's hard to think about it."

"Sister Ran, did you hear that?"

"Well, where's Mingqian?"

"The CEO of Ming Family Fashion, hey, auntie, Mr. Ming seems to be interested in Bai Yiyue. These two are classmates. They even appeared as a couple during college, but they didn't admit it afterwards."

Gu Xinran nodded, sorting out the clues in her mind.

She couldn't ignore Mingqian's performance in today's venue. When Shiqing announced the devolution of power to Bai Yiyue, she was the first to take the lead in applauding. On such occasions, she dared to stand out and say that these two people have nothing to do with her. I really don't believe it.

She recalled carefully how Shi Qing and Bai Yiyue appeared on the same stage. Bai Yiyue held Shi Qing's arm, trying to show that the two had a good relationship, but Shi Qing didn't match her gaze.

And Mingqian's behavior of keeping an eye on the time is really intriguing.

"Huh?" Fang Yi suddenly whispered.

"what happened?"

"I just saw that these paparazzi originally planned to release this big melon on Shi Qing's birthday, but I don't know why they didn't release it. Maybe the boss bought out the black material."

Gu Xinran raised her eyebrows, combined with all the things that happened at the banquet today, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in her mind.

"Fang Yi, work harder and help me find out what happened to Weiyi Group 30 years ago."

"30 years ago? It was kind of tricky."

"That's why I came to you. I don't want to listen to those gossips, I want the facts."

"Okay, I'll try my best."
