I stared at Mai Qi's lonely face.
She smiled self-deprecatingly. "I know she's well-protected, and I know she must be in a bad mood. After all, she's under house arrest. My dad doesn't really care about her. In his heart, he only cares about national affairs. My brother... Even if it's for my sake, he'll still treat her well. But they all know very well that they can't let her out. If they let her out, she'll be a flirtatious woman. If they let her out, she'll bring disaster to the country and the people!"
I laughed. "Mai Qi, who would say that about their own mother? But it sounds like your mother is really amazing!" I gave her a thumbs up.
Mai Qi smiled bitterly. "Haven't you seen her before? She... Sigh!"
I was speechless.
Mai Qi said softly, "Nanxing, I miss her a little."
I pulled her hand. "Why don't you go back and see her?"
Which child didn't miss their mother?
