บท 367: No Longer A Child

"Mom?"

Su Qingsang looked at the two of them, feeling confusion creeping up on her. What are they on about this time? The mood was fine during the meal, wasn't it?

"Qingsang, it's already quite late. It's best if you retire early. Go and get a hot water bath — soak your hands and feet in hot water for a bit."

Xiang Caiping did not return Su Qingsang's gaze. She only held her hand, a gentle smile on her face.

Gentleness aside, there were also self-blame, remorse, and heartache. Xiang Caiping deftly concealed such emotions. The only thing she seemed to have revealed was unconditional warmth and tender, motherly love.

"Mom." Su Qingsang felt a little helpless yet touched at the same time. "I'm no longer a child."

"Mmhmm. Right. No longer a child, yet you still don't know how to take care of yourself."
