Chapter 69 - Monitoring Delete

She had thought that she would remember those painful memories for the rest of her life, but now that she was gone, they vanished into thin air. It was as if she was looking at a flower through a fog, growing further and further away.

Nanqiao lay by the tombstone, crying uncontrollably. Yu Cen Ran looked up at his back and felt a lump of pain in her heart. She was sad, but she was powerless. This feeling was not pleasant.

Yu Cen Ran thought that perhaps this time, he should stretch out his hands to hug South Bridge. However, just as his fingertips were about to touch South Bridge's shoulder, Yu Cen Ran's movements suddenly slowed down. In the end, he retracted his hand and slowly formed a fist.

To be honest, any movement seemed to be completely useless in the face of his current discomfort.

In the end, Yu Cen Ran sighed and silently walked away, giving South Bridge a space alone.

He lit a cigarette, and the wisps of smoke, mixed with the fragrant smoke behind him, made him look even more lonely and sad.

Although he didn't say it out loud, he had long considered Zhang Fenglan to be his mother and had insisted on paying her medical fees. He didn't expect that in the end, he still wouldn't be able to keep her alive.

Yu Cen Ran commanded the wind and rain in A city. Her power covered the sky, but in the face of life, she was as insignificant as ever.

"Little Yu, all these years, I haven't let South Bridge have a good day. Her father is a bastard, and he promised me that no matter what, he would not leave her. I beg you …"

At that time, the South Bridge was nowhere to be seen. Zhang Fenglan's body was weak, and her breathing machine was connected to her nose. Her voice was weak, but she firmly told him to promise that she would take care of South Bridge.

Thinking of this, Yu Cen Ran couldn't help but to raise her head and look at the vast sky. Although there was no sun in the dusky sky, it made Yu Cen Ran's heart even more determined.

Yu Cen Ran thought to herself, "Mom, don't worry. I will do my best to make the South Bridge be happy. I will!"

After an unknown amount of time, South Bridge gradually stopped crying and stayed there for a while before Yu Cen Ran told her to go home and rest.

After returning to the Yu Family villa, Yu Cen Ran personally made a bowl of millet red jujube porridge for South Bridge. She had been exhausted these two days.

However, Yu Cen Ran knew that now that his mother had died, his heart would not be in peace. He was only pretending to be strong.

Soon, she fell asleep. Yu Cen Ran sat on the bed and looked at the depressed expression on the South Bridge. He gently caressed it and sighed. The pain of losing her family members could only be resolved by time.

After sitting like this for who knows how long, Yu Cen Ran finally stood up and bent down slightly. Yu Cen Ran lightly kissed on the South Bridge's forehead and said, "Go to sleep."

In the past few days, the South Bridge always went to the cemetery to take a look. The mausoleum garden was solemn and the black-clothed people stood in front of the mausoleum with miserable expressions.

Nanqiao's face was numb. Her mother, who had always doted on her, had left just like that. Even now, she still couldn't believe it, as if all of this was just a dream.

It had been a few days since Yu Cen Ran saw how bad the South Bridge looked. She put her arm around South Bridge's shoulder and South Bridge rested her head on Yu Cen Ran's shoulder.

In front of the tombstone were white lilies, and on the tombstone was his mother's warm smile. South Bridge's eyes were red from crying, and his eyelids were swollen.

Why would such a kind and gentle mother die? How could the heavens be willing to take his mother's life?

However, all these questions were meaningless, because the mother really did not exist anymore.

Nanqiao's eyes drooped slightly as a teardrop fell down. He looked at Yu Cen Ran and said, "I always think of the past …"

Nanqiao slept badly at night, so her mother always covered herself with the quilt when she kicked it.

What happened at school in South Bridge would always be told to her mother, and her mother would teach her how to do it. Her mother was her teacher in enlightenment. Until work, South Bridge will also tell her mother about the work in the heart of things, mother will also give her comfort and support.

Every time her mother would say to her, "Child, it's okay. Mom will always support you. You will never be alone."

With the departure of his mother, these things increasingly appeared in his mind, but now, only South Bridge himself remained.

Thinking of this, the South Bridge felt even worse.

His mother had toiled far too much in her life. For her sake, he had enjoyed far too little. South Bridge hoped that she had gone to an extremely happy world where she could only live a comfortable life.

Nanqiao stood in front of the tombstone, his mind filled with his mother's sweet words and smiles. His tears continued to flow loudly, and large tears rolled down her cheeks and fell to the ground.

"South Bridge, don't be sad. Auntie doesn't want you to be like this." Zhan Xin walked forward and gently hugged the South Bridge.

South Bridge slowly moved his neck and looked at Zhan Xin. His voice was choked with sobs. "Why have you come?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Nanqiao looked at Yu Cen Ran and guessed that he had told Zhan Xin.

Zhan Xin pouted as she complained, "You still have the nerve to say that? You didn't even tell me about such a huge matter. You're being too rude."

Seeing South Bridge's desolate expression, Zhan Xin sighed and softened her tone. "South Bridge, don't be upset anymore. I hope you can stay alive. You promised me before."

Nanqiao looked at the group of people who cared about her, and stiffly pulled out a trace of a smile from the corner of his mouth. "I know."

As he spoke, he tried to wipe his eyes, but the tears simply did not stop. After wiping them away, they began to flow again.

When the crowd saw the South Bridge, they were not willing to part with it, but they also did not say anything more. It was likely that the more they spoke, the more the South Bridge felt uncomfortable.

When Yu Cen Ran saw the look on her beloved's face, the strength in her arms increased.

"Go back." After a long while, South Bridge finally opened his mouth and said to Yu Cen Ran.

Hearing Nan Qiao's words, Yu Cen Ran nodded, "Alright."

After returning home, South Bridge went straight back to his room and collapsed on his bed. Yu Cen Ran followed him in and leaned against the doorframe.

Yu Cen Ran said in a low voice, "South Bridge, you should get a good night's sleep. I'll call you after dinner."

"Alright." He stared at the ceiling, his eyes blank.

Yu Cen Ran quietly left the room and closed the door at the same time.

When dinner was ready, Yu Cen Ran went to the South Bridge house and wanted to wake South Bridge up. However, South Bridge was deeply asleep and her hand paused for a moment. In the end, she couldn't bear to wake her up.

Yu Cen Ran didn't go down to eat. She slept on the couch outside and spent the night listening to the sounds coming from the south bridge bed.

When Nanqiao woke up in the morning, Yu Cen Ran was downstairs preparing food for him. After washing up, he went downstairs and took a glance at the kitchen, then headed to the garden.

As if he had lost interest in everything, Nanqiao sat down at the wooden table in the garden. His eyes were dry and sore.

Yu Cen Ran finished cooking breakfast and served it to him. She intended to wake up South Bridge, but there was no trace of South Bridge on the bed. Yu Cen Ran was stunned for a moment. He quickly went downstairs and looked around, shouting the name of South Bridge.

When he saw the south bridge in the garden, Yu Cen Ran's worried heart finally stopped beating. What was he worried about? He must be scared …

"South Bridge, breakfast is ready. Come over and have some."

Nanqiao shook his head and ignored Yu Cen Ran. Seeing how things were with Nanqiao, Yu Cen Ran brought the breakfast over but Nanqiao only looked at the food for a bit before shifting her gaze to a branch and said, "I'm not hungry."

"South Bridge, you have to eat properly. Mom doesn't want to see you like this."

Hearing Yu Cen Ran's words, Nanqiao nodded. Without any emotion, he picked up the bowl and chopsticks and began to eat. Like a robot, his face was expressionless as he mechanically fed the food into his mouth.

Halfway through, South Bridge suddenly stood up. Squatting in a corner, he bent over and started vomiting in the trash can.

"Ugh!" He almost vomited out the bile in his stomach. A burst of bitterness came from his mouth.

Yu Cen Ran stood on the spot, clenching his fists. He wanted to go over and pat the South Bridge's back, but just as he took a step, he stopped and a wave of anger rose up in his heart.

"Bang!" With a sweep of his arm, the dining plates were all swept away. Pieces of porcelain were scattered all over the ground, and juices were splattered everywhere.

South Bridge had his back facing Yu Cen Ran as he quietly listened, "You want to torment yourself, right? Fine, I'll accompany you!"

Hearing the sound, Housekeeper Zhang rushed over. Yu Cen Ran's face was filled with anger as he passed by. Housekeeper Zhang wanted to say something but hesitated. He then looked at the South Bridge that was still sitting nearby and could only helplessly shake his head.

The young lady had been sitting in the back garden for several days. These few days, he didn't even give her food. He just sat there by himself, completely alone.

The steward knew what Nanqiao was feeling, but it was the same for him!

The weather in A City was getting colder, and the haze was getting heavier. Yu Cen Ran no longer allowed South Bridge to go out. When she was free, she would sit on a bench in the garden in a daze for the entire day.

Yu Cen Ran looked at her beautiful profile from afar and didn't disturb her. The South Bridge needed some time to slowly walk out of the shadow of her mother's passing.

Inside the study, Yu Cen Ran walked to the French window and looked at the scenery in the distance. "How's the investigation going?"

Yu Cen Ran frowned. He tried his best to keep his voice down since South Bridge was already asleep. He didn't want to wake her up.

A slightly disappointed voice came from the other end of the phone, "None of them are optimistic. I checked all the hospital monitors, but the most important part has been deleted. "

Yu Cen Ran listened quietly. The hand holding the phone slowly began to move. Someone was removing it …

That's right, he should have thought of it long ago. Since he could do such a thing, how could he leave any clues behind?

However, on the day that Nan Qiao's mother died, Yu Chenghui was the only person who had seen her. What did the two of them talk about in the ward? Could it be that her death really had something to do with his father?

Yu Cen Ran's face was gloomy, he tried his best to suppress his anger, and lowered his voice, changing the topic, "What did the doctor say? Why did she remember everything except …

Forget me, Yu Cen Ran didn't say the last three words.

Zhou Yu Chen heard the desolation in Yu Cen Ran's words and comforted her, "I can't find out what happened to Nanqiao at the moment. Maybe her brain suffered some damage and her memory is disturbed."
