The next morning.

In the fragrant and warm velvet quilt, Meng Yan woke up hugging Gan Qi, whose clothes were disheveled.

Moving his eyes downward, he looked at his wife's white shoulders as she slept, and recalled the crazy kiss they had last night.

I felt a sweet feeling in my heart, but also a little scared - fortunately, I controlled my instinctive impulse.

Fortunately, I resisted the urge to take the final step with her.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to, it’s that his wife’s health is the most important.

Humph.

After these two days, he will definitely get what he wants... and make her compensate him.

Meng Yan leaned his face forward. He had discovered a long time ago that his wife had a faint fragrance that he couldn't get enough of.

He tucked in the quilt for her, hugged Gan Qi tightly in his arms, and inadvertently noticed that there seemed to be a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

Ok?

What's going on here?

Gan Qi frowned in his sleep, as if he had a bad dream.

Gan Qi rested her head on Meng Yan's broad chest, her small body held tightly in his arms.

Indeed, she was dreaming.

The dream was indeed not very pleasant.

In her dream, Gan Qi saw herself in a forest of tall green plants. The flowers and plants became as tall as giants, hovering above her sight, trapping her small body in a maze.

Gan Qi was surrounded by fear, the cold wind blew around her, and the thorn bushes were baring their fangs and claws like a monster trying to catch her.

Gan Qi just kept running...

Not far away, a noble lady stood in the bright sunshine. She was wearing a gorgeous dress and waving at her with a fan in her hand.

"Daughter, daughter..."

Even though the figure was blurry and the distance was far.

But Gan Qi saw the colorful stone bracelet on the other person's wrist at a glance.

Gan Qi suddenly felt a strong desire to survive, which contained all the fantasies and thoughts about her mother over the years:

"mom!"

"mom!"

She raised her legs and ran over, but the next second she was tripped by the thorny vines.

"mom……"

When Gan Qi opened her eyes, there were traces of tears on her cheeks.

She realized that it was just a dream.

As tears flowed, my husband's pajamas on his chest were soaked.

Meng Yan asked distressedly: "Did you have a nightmare?"

Gan Qi regained his composure and nodded.

"I...I dreamed about my mother."

Meng Yan frowned, and suddenly worried:

"Who? Did you see who it was?"

Gan Qi shook her head: "I didn't see her face, just a shadow in the distance, but she was wearing a beautiful dress and that bracelet."

Meng Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there were no mysterious and bloody plots. He was really afraid that Gan Qi would dream of Madam Lian’s face.

If that were the case, he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.

Gan Qi sat up slowly, as if she suddenly remembered something, and immediately got out of bed in her pajamas.

"Qiqi, what's wrong?"

Gan Qi didn't answer. She opened the door of the wardrobe, rummaged through the lower level for a long time, took out a beautiful box, opened the box, and took out layer by layer of things inside.

Finally, she took out the stone bracelet at the bottom, which symbolized her life experience.

Gan Qi took the bracelet back into bed and looked at it again and again under the lamp.

The stones on the bracelet are somewhat irregular in shape, and the light color exudes a sense of simplicity. Although they are not as good as the popular gold and glittering accessories, they have a very low-key beauty.

Meng Yan: "Gan Qi..."

Gan Qi stared at the bracelet in a trance: "Meng Yan, tell me, is this really left by my biological parents? This bracelet is made of stone, why would they leave it to me?"

Meng Yan closed his lips tightly and answered after a long while: "I don't know."

Gan Qi: "My biological parents must be very poor. They couldn't afford normal jewelry, so they strung one for me with stones."

Meng Yan secretly answered his wife in his heart: This bracelet is not cheap, it is a handmade custom piece by a French designer, exclusive and there is only one of its kind.

——It just looks like an ordinary stone.

Gan Qi slowly held the bracelet in his palm, placed it on his chest, and smiled bitterly:

"Luckily it was a string of stones, otherwise it would have been taken away by someone to exchange for money, and it wouldn't have been preserved until now."

Meng Yan: Yes, fortunately it looks very cheap and few people know its value.

Gan Qi put the bracelet on her wrist, and the colorful stone beads made her wrist look even whiter and more delicate.

From today on, she will carry it with her.

She regarded it as a lucky stone, which was a secret token of longing and protection from her parents whom she had never met.

Although Gan Qi had imagined more than once the real reason why her parents separated from her.

For example, the family is too poor to support her.

Or maybe something happened to her parents and they got lost.

……

In any case, she believes that there are no parents in the world who don't love their children.

Maybe, in another corner of the world, her mother is also looking for her!
