"Why have you only appeared now?"
"Do you have any idea how hard these years have been for me?"
Su Qing's eyes were red and swollen as she looked at Chen Nan, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
All these years, it had been just her, a woman raising the child on her own, and nobody could truly understand the suffering in her heart.
Chen Nan's words just now had sparked her empathy.
While it comforted her, it also made her resentful that Chen Nan had appeared too late—if he had shown up earlier, she wouldn't have had to suffer so much.
At the very least, she would have had someone to rely on emotionally.
That was precisely why she had cursed Chen Nan as a bastard.
Chen Nan was amused and laughed: "If I had appeared ten years earlier, our relationship wouldn't be like it is now!"
Su Qing paused for a moment and then burst into laughter despite her tears: "A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory."
