章節 442: She tamed him well

"I wasn't at home that time, but our neighbour who saw the fire immediately came over and helped us to put off the fire. When I returned and saw my house was on fire, my body moved automatically, and I didn't remember much of it. What I knew was my mother was saved, at least temporarily."

"Temporarily?"

"Yeah. Thankfully she didn't get burned, but she inhaled a lot of poisonous gas. Her health wasn't that good in the first place, and inhaling the gas just made her condition worsen." 

Shao Jingfei's voice trembled ever so slightly when he spoke the following sentences.

"She passed away the next day. On my birthday and Glorious Days anniversary."

His words felt like a slap to her face. Without knowing anything, she kept pestering him just to satisfy her curiosity. Her intention to help unknowingly became salt in his wound.
