章 72: A Healing Picture

"Mother, I am not Xiaohua's nanny. I don't need to be by her side 24/7, and I have my own life, too."

"What are you saying? Your sister is weak and has to be constantly under watch! How can you leave her to have fun on your own? Didn't your conscience feel hurt at all enjoying your life while your sister is holding herself back?" Su Suyin frowned in disapproval.

"Mother, that's what you think. I know you feel guilty for Xiaohua, but please don't force your idea onto me. Just because I was born healthy, I have to always cater to Xiaohua's needs? I don't think that's right."

Su Suyin choked on her words. She stared at her eldest daughter in disbelief. "Xiaoyi, you really are…."

"Mother," Li Caiyi cut her sentence and took a deep breath. Talking with Su Suyin was one hundred times more arduous than talking with Li Jirong. Because unlike him, her mother showed her some love, however little that was. She made it hard for Li Caiyi to hate her completely.
