"This child... I was just saying that casually, how come..." Guan Tongshi's eyes suddenly reddened.
She was indeed grateful to Yang Ruxin, but that's just how people are. When something happens, you might be willing to give your all, but once it's over, emotions that ought to lean a certain way still do. After all, she had her biases against Yang Dani from the beginning, so seeing her own family seemingly favoring Yang Ruxin made her uncomfortable.
Especially during the New Year, when she returned to her parents' home, her brother and sister-in-law were full of complaints about her, accusing her of ingratitude. She was so upset that she couldn't eat; after all, that was her own maternal family, which had indeed helped her in the past. She couldn't just abandon her own family, could she?
Tong Lingling was a girl she had watched grow up, and now whenever she saw her, Lingling's eyes would be red, and she would act so cautious around her. It pained Guan Tongshi to see this.
