章 464: A Manipulative Mother

Perhaps it was when Chu Jing had come to the city for the first time, naive and easily swayed by Rong Tianshi's sweet words. The first encounter matters; so does the first romance.

Rong Qi felt an empathetic pang in her chest. If her first relationship had been with a scumbag, she'd likely forsake the idea of love for the rest of her life. Her heart would be locked away, and no good soul would ever have the chance to enter.

Nevertheless, Rong Qi couldn't help but think her mother was rather manipulative. 'Why didn't she just admit that she didn't like Sheng Jian? Why, after divorcing him, did she still let him take her away?'

As if on cue, Sheng Jian seemed to read Rong Qi's thoughts. Just as she was pondering, he asked, "What do you think of your mother?"

The question was tinged with anticipation. Rong Qi felt largely indifferent, answering succinctly, "Manipulator."
