"You... you really want to go back to the countryside? To leave things as they are with Zixuan?"
Upon hearing Tiantian's words, even Feng Mingjie, who was angry with Tiantian because of Seo Xiulan, was somewhat moved.
Ah, after all, she was the child she had raised herself.
From the size of a small cat, after more than a decade of hard work and effort, she had grown into a graceful young woman; only Feng Mingjie, her mother, knew the hardships.
Her gaze complex, she looked at Tiantian and asked softly.
"Mom, I... I can't bear to leave you and dad, nor can I bear to leave my brother and sister, but I... but I am originally a child of the He Family!"
"I've taken Zixuan's place, stolen the parental love that didn't belong to me, I... I..."
As Tiantian spoke, tears started streaming down her face. Her choked voice was filled with self-reproach, guilt, and a profound reluctance to part with her "parents."
