In the end, Mo Zhu exposed his daughter's true thoughts. "The person you can't bear to part with is actually Little Pei, right?"
Li You suddenly felt a lump in her throat. Since her mother had said it outright, she didn't hide it anymore. "I can't bear to leave him," she admitted frankly.
Mo Zhu asked, "Does he know about this?"
Li You nodded. "He knows."
Mo Zhu: "Then what did he say?"
What did he say…
Li You recalled that afternoon. She had mentioned this in front of Pei Jingzhou, who had only said, "You can go wherever you want."
It was really just this sentence. There was nothing else. At that time, Li You felt stifled, not because of Pei Jingzhou's attitude. Even if he treated her coldly, she would not feel stifled. She felt stifled because of her current choice.
However, she did not tell her mother what Pei Jingzhou had said. She only said, "He knew about this, but he didn't say anything."
