Chen Zhi met her mother's bright, resolute eyes, knowing she had to speak up today.
But she didn't want to reveal her own plight in front of her mother, nor did she want her mother to feel guilty and pained.
"Mom, just like Aunt An said that day, I indeed did it for money... I followed a man..."
"Who is he?"
"A businessman, I don't want to talk about him." She hadn't forgotten, her mother knew who Si Ye was.
If her mother knew it was Si Ye, she didn't know how she would feel. She probably would get very angry every time she saw a photo of Si Ye.
Her heart wasn't good, so she couldn't afford to be upset all the time.
Chen Zhi's mother didn't press her to reveal who he was; she understood her daughter's feelings. Forcing her would only make things more embarrassing for her.
"Are you still with him now?"
"... No, I was with him for just over half a month, and then we separated," Chen Zhi told half the truth.
