"Pudding, I…" Su Yu didn't think a three-year-old's question would make him sink into such awkwardness.
"Is my question that hard to answer?" Pudding asked Su Yu naively.
"It's not hard to answer, I just don't think you'd understand even if I did."
"Try me."
"Okay then, Pudding. Here's the thing – I really do like your mommy, but your mommy doesn't like me. I want to give up, but humans can't switch off any of their emotions. So you want to know if I can give up on your mommy? I want to say that I want to… but that doesn't mean I'm able to."
After saying all that, Su Yu suddenly felt like a giant brick had been lifted off his shoulders.
"Handsome Su, you're a good man, but Mommy met my daddy first… so she'll never be able to make you happy. I wish I can grow up quickly, then I'd be able to marry you."
"Um… but you're only three right now!" Su Yu said, close to spitting out blood.
