There seemed to be a thin layer of fog in Ding Rong's beautiful eyes, making it impossible for Huo Tian to see her true emotions.
She said in a complicated tone, "If he had let you and me down, then it's not worth me wasting my feelings on him. If something happens to him… and I don't know the exact news, I can treat it as if he's living in another corner of the Earth safe and sound. This is probably self-deception."
Ding Rong patted Huo Tian's shoulder gently and sighed. "Tiantian, is Mom very cowardly?"
"No, Mom is the strongest person I've ever met."
Huo Tian hugged Ding Rong's waist and lay down with her head on her leg. She buried her face in Ding Rong's waist so that she could hide her expression.
Her voice was muffled. "Mom, you just don't want to hear bad news about Dad."
