Lu Chenyuan felt an immense loathing upon hearing this phrase, "It was all for your own good," which was the same excuse when they abandoned him back then.
Lu Mingxun had always lived with his parents, never spent a day apart from them since birth.
Xu Qingli revealed her difficulties, "It's not that I didn't want to, it's that your father disagreed. He thought that being away overseas all the time would make your grandparents feel lonely and isolated, so he decided to keep one child by their side. At that time, Mingxun was too young; it was only hard on you, but which mother doesn't miss her child? I could keep myself busy during the day, but at night, when it's quiet and I think of you, I would cry until the pillow was soaked."
Xu Qingli said this and then pulled out a handkerchief to dab at her tears.
Lu Chenyuan felt no sympathy, nor did he want to expose the truth. If there was genuine guilt, how could she have kept her silence, never inquiring about him?
