"So, that's the reason why mom left the house." Xiu Mei concluded after listening to Mr. Zeng's story about her mother Zeng Ruo. She was currently sitting on the bed facing Zeng Shihong, as he narrated the story of his daughter.
At first, he was reluctant to tell her everything, afraid she will leave him again. But he gave up in front of her continuous persistence. Instead of living his remaining life in fear and guilt, it's better to disclose everything once and for all.
Holding his heart as he revealed everything about his daughter, he was surprised that Xiu Mei listened to him silently and didn't show any outrageous reaction. He expected her to cry, shout, blame him or walk out again, but here she was sitting in front of him, holding his hand, passing her warmth to him.
