"Chen Yueming...."
The sound of tray came from outside the room to signal the arrival of one of the kitchen servants. Holding off what she was about to say, Chen Liling waited for their tray to be served and the servant gone, before continuing from where she left off.
"Chen Yueming, I know you think you can shoulder everything by yourself, but I want you to be able to depend on me, it doesn't have to be every time, it could be once in a while."
