Lee Ningning's words left Big Face Cat speechless.
Looking at her now... he saw shades of Lee Cheng from many years ago, the man who took on death alone in a hot air balloon, going against everyone else.
He had intended to take good care of Lee Ningning, to raise her into an ordinary, happy girl.
But unexpectedly.
The women of the Lee Family always turn out this way, always end up this way.
Back then, knowing well it was a death sentence, Lee Cheng still firmly boarded the hot air balloon, all for the very same words Lee Ningning had just spoken—
"If I don't go, how can I ask someone else to?"
That included Lee Ningning's mother's last words:
"After the men have died, the women must keep up. If Lee Cheng's woman doesn't go... why should any other woman?"
Big Face Cat's face was ashen.
He didn't know what to do at this moment.
...
Standing behind Big Face Cat, witnessing the whole argument, Lin Xian let out a silent sigh.
Lee Ningning.
