Gu Nianzhi followed He Zhichu to his professor's building. Before Ma Qiqi arrived, He Zhichu took the opportunity to say to Gu Nianzhi with a conflicted look, "Nianzhi, do you really want to have parents?"
Gu Nianzhi was speechless. How could he say that? Who wouldn't want to have parents?!
She sat down on the couch in the living room inside He Zhichu's suite. Hugging a panda pillow, she sniffled her exquisite little nose and drawled, "Professor He, I wasn't born out of a crack in a rock. How could I not want to have my own parents?"
"I remember that you never wanted to find your own parents before. Huo Shaoheng had also said that you don't even have a concept of the word, 'parents.'" He Zhichu sat on the couch across from her and leaned forward to study her intently. It was like he was contemplating what incident had changed her.
Gu Nianzhi's gaze began to unfocus when she heard this.
