On the way back, Lin Ru closed her eyes and was not willing to talk. Tang Xi signaled her to lean against her shoulder for rest. Soon she felt her shoulder was wet. She looked at Lin Ru, and suddenly felt sorry for her. She reached out to pull Lin Ru into her arms and whispered, "Cry it out. If this can make you feel better, just cry out loud. I'll be here with you."
Lin Ru hugged Tang Xi tightly and burst into tears. She sobbed. "Rourou, don't you think I'm too weak and useless? Although I had been doubting it for so many years, I dared not to ask them. No matter when it comes down to myself or to you, I'm always so useless. When I came to know you were my daughter, I was happy at first, but then I was afraid. I was afraid that your existence would affect me, but… but because of my weakness, I almost took an enemy as my daughter and let you be killed. I feel very sorry for what I did to you…"
