1324 Locked Up for Twenty Years
It was huge, but it didn’t look complicated.
Directly opposite the entrance was a large staircase. Halfway up, it split into two sides, forming a graceful curve, like a bird spreading its wings.
Su Yanyun indicated that she had only seen such buildings and internal structures on the big screen.
But then she looked at the luggage behind her...
“Don’t worry, there’s an elevator over there.” An Mingchen understood what she meant. “As I said, this place will be renovated every few years. There are all kinds of modern things.”
The room An Mingchen arranged for Su Yanyun and Rong Linyi was also very luxurious.
This luxury was not reflected by the decorations, but by the historical weight of the entire building.
After Su Yanyun rested for a while.
An Mingchen knocked on the door. “Zhengzheng, Mom already knows that you’re here. Look...”
“I was just about to meet her.” Su Yanyun’s heart couldn’t help but beat faster. “Linyi and I are already prepared.”
But An Mingchen interrupted her. “Zhengzheng... Mom might not meet anyone else.”
Su Yanyun was stunned and couldn’t help but look at Rong Linyi.
Rong Linyi immediately grabbed her waist, indicating that he wouldn’t separate from Su Yanyun.
An Mingchen’s eyes revealed obvious displeasure.
“You can come with us, but Mom will only see Zhengzheng. You must wait outside.”
... .
When An Mingchen brought Su Yanyun over to see her mother, Su Yanyun realized that her first impression of the castle was wrong.
Not only was this place huge, but it was also extremely complicated.
The so-called simplicity was just an illusion given by the entry hall.
Although the castle only had five floors, one floor here was equivalent to two floors of an ordinary building, not to mention there were countless spires.
Moreover, when Su Yanyun walked down a corridor, she saw that there were buildings beside the courtyard outside. It was actually an extension of the castle.
It was a far cry from the impression she had of the castle when she’d first seen it in its place as a regular rectangular structure.
After all the twists and turns, she soon lost track of the way.
An Mingchen was familiar with the place and quickly brought them to a large living room.
“Wait here. I’ll take Zhengzheng inside to see Mom.”
He said this to Rong Linyi.
Rong Linyi gently shook Su Yanyun’s hand. “It’s fine, go ahead...”
An Mingchen wouldn’t harm Su Yanyun, at least not her heart. Rong Linyi knew this.
However, he felt uneasy about putting the little woman in someone else’s hands.
“I’ll be out soon.” Su Yanyun found this scene strange.
Logically speaking, as a mother, she should have come out to welcome her daughter, who had been missing for many years, when she returned home. However, her mother was hiding in her room...
After leaving the living room and walking into the bedroom, Su Yanyun didn’t get to see her biological mother.
“Let’s go.” An Mingchen reached out and held Su Yanyun’s hand. “Don’t be nervous,” he comforted her. “Because of what happened to you, Mom has been locking herself in here for many years. For ten or twenty years, she hasn’t taken a step out of here.”
“What?” Su Yanyun was shocked. “She, she locked herself in here...”
An Mingchen nodded silently. “This is her punishment for herself.”
They walked down another long corridor and finally reached a large bedroom.
Su Yanyun looked up and saw a woman sitting by the window, staring out at the garden.
When she turned back, Su Yanyun was stunned.
