His lips trembled a few times, wanting to speak, but his throat felt as if it were being strangled, unable to utter a single word.
His expression was somewhat empty, yet his eyes were growing warm.
His eyes reddening, he finally spoke with a shaky voice, "Mother, you..."
Was all this necessary?
Necessary!
To stay in the Capital City, to collude with Bai Zhi who detested him to the bone, she actually knelt before him!
There was a time when he pointed at Sun Junyan's nose, mocking him for being unfilial and heartless, for pressuring his mother from the Sun Family to kneel before Qiao Xiaomai.
But now he found himself in the same situation, his elder, his very own mother, was kneeling before him.
The difference was, the Sun Family knelt for Sun Junyan's sake, but his mother knelt for all sorts of messed up reasons.
In that respect, his mother was no match for the Sun Family.
No matter how lacking the Sun Family was, she still had a mother's love for Sun Junyan.
