"But... Anning is still young!" Mrs. Xia stated helplessly, "She can't be without me!"
"Is she young?" Xia Yunsheng's eyes reddened, welling up with tears. Her scarred heart felt like it had been ripped open and magnified endlessly. "How old was I when you left initially? I was only seven, wasn't I? She's a whole ten years older than I was back then! Now you think she's young? Maybe I'm not your daughter after all!"
Having said that, Xia Yunsheng stubbornly walked out of the Song residence, ignoring her mother's pleas for her to stay.
Watching Cheng Yanzhi who followed shortly after, Mrs. Xia said, "Yanzhi, please talk to Sheng for me. I don't know what to do with her! She always hates me so much..."
Cheng Yanzhi looked up to see Xia Yunsheng already striding out of the Song family's front gate, leaving a cold silhouette behind.
While others only saw Xia Yunsheng's indifference, what Cheng Yanzhi saw was heartache.
