As a child, she had seen Mù Qiānxún fight countless times with those who mocked her for not having a father.
Initially, she would come back in tears, asking why she didn't have a father?
Mu Xin would always respond with a smile, "But you have a Mom..."
And then Mù Qiānxún stopped asking.
She didn't ask for many, many years.
But after returning from Imperial City once, she asked.
Mu Xin didn't think she had done a good job educating her, but she didn't know how to explain. At the time, Mù Qiānxún was still young. Was she supposed to tell her adult matters and plant a seed of resentment at such a young age?
By the time they went to Imperial City, she had turned sixteen, understood more about the world, so Mu Xin told her the whole story.
She would forever remember Mù Qiānxún's expression at that time.
She calmly listened to Mu Xin telling about her previous love affair with Xin Liao, and his subsequent infidelity with her best friend.
