Which one was gentler? Was it a mother's touch or a gentle breeze?
Xia Qiao could still remember her mother's touch even though it had been more than a month since her mother died. Her mother loved to stroke her black hair. She was the Empress of this empire, and she had never done manual labor with her hands. Thus, her mother's palms were free of calluses, and that was why they always felt so soft whenever she touched her head.
Maybe the feeling of comfort wasn't because of her mother's smooth palms, but maybe because her mother loved her so much.
Unfortunately, her mother couldn't be by her side longer, and the gentle touch wasn't something she could feel anymore.
