When only three people remained in the room, Qian Yixiu said to Cheng Yue, "Mother will go upstairs first, Yixiu wants to have a word with your Brother Jiang alone."
Cheng Yue was quite shrewd and didn't leave. Holding Qian Manjiang's hand, she said to Qian Yixiu, "Mother won't leave, Mother knows Yixiu doesn't like Brother Jiang. If Mother leaves, what if you drive Brother Jiang out?" She pleaded, "Yixiu, for Mother's sake, please don't drive Brother Jiang away, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Manjiang felt incredibly heartbroken and said with teary eyes, "Yueyue, it's all my fault. I've made you suffer over these years. It's no wonder my daughter resents me; I should have come back sooner."
