Chapter 294 Jade Pendant
Chapter 294 Jade Pendant
Gu Ranle made up her mind to let Ci Nian rest in peace.
As for Song Yan, he is now in a vegetative state, and no one can say whether he can wake up in the future.
So, just leave everything to time.
If Song Yan can wake up one day, let him decide for himself what his future path should be, and decide his own life.
If he never wakes up in this lifetime, we will wait until his life comes to an end naturally before arranging his funeral.
On the day Ci Nian was buried, there was a drizzle in the sky, as if God was also sad about the separation.
The only people who came to see Ci Nian off were Gu Ranle, Gu Jiu and Li Xiuneng.
In just a few days, Gu Ranle had experienced this kind of life and death separation for the second time.
However, she and Ci Nian had only met once.
Although the two are related by blood as mother and daughter, they have not established any deep mother-daughter relationship.
Therefore, Gu Ranle did not feel particularly sad.
She was even happy for Ci Nian in her heart.
She witnessed with her own eyes the inhuman torture that Ci Nian suffered in the last days of her life.
If it weren't for the baby in her belly supporting her, Ci Nian might have been liberated long ago.
Now, Ci Nian has finally gotten rid of it all, gone to another world, and entered her own reincarnation.
Of course, all this was just Gu Ranle's imagination, and she didn't know whether there was such a thing as reincarnation in this world.
But she just wanted to think so, thinking that this would make Ci Nian's departure seem less sad.
The drizzle was still falling, wetting the ground and the clothes of the three people.
They stood quietly in front of Ci Nian's grave, looking at the small tombstone, each with their own thoughts in their hearts.
Gu Ranle silently bid farewell to Ci Nian in her heart, hoping that she could live well in another world.
Gu Jiu and Li Xiuneng also prayed for Ci Nian in their hearts, wishing her a good journey.
On the way back, as soon as Gu Ranle's head touched the soft seat back, sleepiness came over her like a tide, and soon she fell asleep leaning on the seat.
In her hazy dream, Gu Ranle seemed to have stepped into a dreamlike scene, and she saw Ci Nian again.
This time, what appeared before her was a tree-lined park.
The sunlight shines through the layers of leaves, casting mottled shadows. The breeze blows gently, bringing bursts of fragrance from flowers and plants.
Ci Nian sat quietly on a bench in the park, wearing a dress as white as snow, exuding a gentle and soft temperament.
Gu Ranle took a closer look and found that Ci Nian looked a little more mature than the last time she saw her. She looked to be around thirty years old.
"Baby, you're here?" As soon as Ci Nian saw Gu Ranle, a bright smile immediately broke out on her face. She gently patted the seat next to her and greeted her warmly, "Come, sit next to mommy."
Gu Ranle walked to Ci Nian in a daze and sat down. She was full of doubts and couldn't help asking, "What time is it now? Is it still twenty-five years ago?"
Ci Nian shook her head slightly and said gently: "Now is the present, not the past, nor the future."
"Then you..." Gu Ranle opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say for a moment.
Ci Nian seemed to see through Gu Ranle's thoughts. She gently held Gu Ranle's hand and said softly, "I'm still alive. After I left your world, I returned to the world that originally belonged to me. I have been in your world for more than 20 years, but in my original world, only five years have passed."
"Ah? You are still alive?" Gu Ranle widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief. This news was too shocking for her.
Ci Nian nodded gently, with a complex emotion flashing in her eyes, "Yeah, I didn't expect that the way to return to the original world was to disappear from that world. If I had known this earlier, I might have committed suicide to go back. In this way, I would not have met your father that year."
At this point, Ci Nian paused, then asked with concern, "Is your father... okay?"
When Gu Ranle heard this question, her eyes dimmed instantly. She shook her head slowly and said in a low voice, "Not good. He has become a vegetable. I don't know if he can wake up."
Upon hearing this, Ci Nian was silent for a long time.
It was very quiet around, with only the occasional rustling of leaves.
After a long time, Ci Nian slowly said, "If he wakes up, tell him that I don't hate him."
Gu Ranle frowned and asked in confusion: "Why don't you tell him yourself? I think since you can travel through time once, you can definitely travel through time a second time. Maybe you will have a chance to see him again in the future."
Ci Nian shook her head again and said helplessly, "No, the last time I traveled through time was a complete accident. I don't know how I traveled through time, let alone how to travel back."
Gu Ranle didn't say anything else, her eyes were fixed on the jade pendant on Ci Nian's neck.
The jade pendant emitted a soft glow under the sunlight. There was a red dot in the middle of the pendant, which was so bright red that it looked like a drop of blood on it, making it particularly eye-catching.
"Your pendant is very special." Gu Ranle couldn't help but say.
Ci Nian was stunned for a moment, followed Gu Ranle's gaze and looked at her jade pendant, and said, "Are you talking about the red spot on it? It wasn't there originally, I don't know when it got stained, and it can't be washed off no matter how hard I wash it."
"Have you always worn this jade pendant?" Gu Ranle's eyes were still fixed on the jade pendant, and she couldn't help but ask again.
Ci Nian shook her head slightly, and said, recalling, "No, it was given to me by your grandfather before he died five years ago. Strangely enough, the day I put it on, I somehow traveled through time. But what's even stranger is that the pendant didn't travel with me, and it stayed in the original world."
A bold idea suddenly flashed through Gu Ranle's mind. Her eyes lit up slightly and she said, "Why don't you try dropping a drop of blood on the pendant? Maybe you can find some secrets."
Ci Nian was stunned by Gu Ranle's sudden words and asked in surprise, "You mean, this red dot could be a drop of my blood?"
"I'm just guessing." Gu Ranle still stared at the pendant intently and said, "Do you know the origin of this jade pendant? Does it have any special story?"
Ci Nian sighed helplessly and said, "Your grandpa only told me that this jade pendant was very important and asked me to keep it well. He didn't say anything else. I don't know where it came from. After all, I have never seen this pendant before."
Gu Ranle listened, his eyes revealed a firmness, and urged again: "Then you can try it. Anyway, there is no other way now. Maybe after dripping blood, you can solve the mystery of this jade pendant."
