Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

Upon seeing Ning Ran's tears, Nan Chen handed her a piece of tissue. “Why are you crying?”

Ning Ran didn't know how to explain why she was crying. She simply felt like doing so.

There were a lot of times when she didn't know why she cried, but she couldn't help it.

Perhaps it was because of the dreadful and cruel past she had experienced and endured, but she couldn't stop herself from weeping when she returned to the place she once called home.

Or maybe she felt lucky to have the opportunity of returning to the place where she grew up, and the tears that she was shedding were happy ones.

Regardless of the reason, Ning Ran truly had a strong urge to cry at that moment.

Nan Chen wiped her tears and said, “You'll ruin your make-up if you keep crying, so stop it.”

If he had kept comforting her, Ning Ran probably would have bawled her eyes out. However, his cold demand stopped her from crying immediately.

After Nan Chen handed Ning Ran the key, she opened the gate.

There was a garden behind the gate. The greenery in the garden was lush, and it didn't look run-down at all. It was obvious that someone had been there to tidy up and take care of the area before.

The most surprising part was that the floras were the same species planted in the garden back then.

Many years had passed, so it was impossible that those same plants survived until now. It was clear that someone replanted them.

Naturally, it couldn't be Ning Ziqiang who did it. He wasn't staying there because the house had been mortgaged by him a long time ago.

“These flowers...” Ning Ran turned around and glanced at Nan Chen with a curious look.

“I hired someone to plant them,” Nan Chen answered.

“But how did you know the same flowers were planted here? You even got all the species accurately!” Ning Ran couldn't believe her eyes.

“You posted some photos on your page. I showed the experts those photos, and they recognized the species easily. So, I just hired someone to plant them according to the original layout,” he explained.

It wasn't until then that Ning Ran recalled she had taken a picture of the garden before and posted it on social media. She still kept those pictures with her. But when did he look through my page and saw those old photos?

Nan Chen seemed to have noticed Ning Ran's doubts and stated, “I merely came across those images by chance.”

“Thank you. That's really thoughtful of you,” she whispered.

“I'm glad you like it,” Nan Chen replied indifferently.

When they entered the house, they were immediately greeted by a familiar scent.

The decorations in the house were almost identical to the times when Ning Ran's mother was still alive. Back then, after her mother was severely ill, the decorations changed.

The interior was also arranged according to Ning Ran's photo. It was restored to the same state it was during her happiest times.

Tears began flowing down Ning Ran's cheeks again.
