Chapter 62: The Lost Table
Chapter 62
Ren Ran suppressed the urge to grab her hand and pressed down the doubts in her heart.
That night, Ren Ran didn't go back to the semi-mountain villa and went directly back to the creek mountain villa where they used to live before.
She went upstairs directly and headed for her mother's dressing room. She opened one of the drawers and rummaged through it but did not find the watch. She continued to rummage through other drawers which contained all kinds of expensive watches and jewelry, but still did not find the one she was looking for.
She called Ren Suya and asked, "Mom, what's the password for your safe deposit box?"
Although Ren Suya felt puzzled, she did not hesitate and told her the password directly.
She opened the safe deposit box, but it was not there either.
"Mom, do you remember that full diamond Patek Philippe diamond watch of yours? I accidentally scratched it and you still remember that watch, don't you?"
Ren Suya didn't think of it at first, but after being reminded by her, she immediately remembered.
"I know. What's wrong?"
"Do you know where that watch is?"

"It should be in the drawer, look for it carefully."
"I've looked through everything already and didn't see it." Ren Ran looked around the dressing room, but the watch was nowhere to be found at all.
"How could this be?!" Ren Suya wondered. After a long pause, she suddenly thought of something. "Oh, I remember now. Your dad took that watch to give it to a client. I remember your dad said that client really liked that watch, so he just gave it to him."
As she spoke, Ren Suya's voice got lower and lower, and she slowly realized something.
"Ranran, isn't that watch in the hands of those mother and daughter?"
"Yes."
Upon receiving confirmation from her daughter, Ren Suya unconsciously clenched her hand holding the phone.
"She wore it to school. I saw the scratch and wanted to confirm it."
"Good, so good of them!"
Hearing the anger in her mother's voice, Ren Ran hurried to comfort her, "Mom, don't get angry. It's just a watch, not worth it. We will make them spit out whatever they swallow. No, I will make them spit out double."
When she returned to the semi-mountain villa, Aunt Li came up to her and reminded her, "Young Miss, your mother is in a very bad mood."
"I know."
Ren Ran took some fruits from the fridge and squeezed her mother a glass of fruit juice, and took it upstairs with her.
"Mom."
Ren Suya turned around.
Noticing her mother's red eyes, she knew she was heartbroken and sad about Kong Li Ji's betrayal again.
"Mom, everything will be fine."
Ren Suya hugged her daughter. "Ranran, your mom is not sad for him, but because I feel I'm not worth it and my 20 years of devotion is not worth it."
"I understand, I understand."
She naturally knew this feeling well. Wasn't she like this in her previous life, unable to accept her father's betrayal of the family and his lack of love for them for a while?
Her mother's feelings for over 20 years and her affection as a father and daughter for over 10 years really couldn't be abandoned just by saying so. If one could really abandon them so casually, then that person had no emotions at all.
When disappointment accumulates too much, it will gradually wear away the love and affection from the past. And when it is completely worn away one day, it will no longer be able to hurt you one bit.
Her experience in her previous life was enough to completely wear away her father-daughter affection of over 10 years. The various unspeakable things she had experienced had long since turned that affection into hatred.
She only hated him, without any familial affection left.
After comforting her mother, Ren Ran pushed open her grandfather's study.
"Ranran."
Ren Hongru greeted her to sit down and poured her a cup of light tea.
