章節 130: Exposed

Li Caiyi didn't know what to say and looked away. Every kind of answer seemed wrong to say in a situation like this. 

Even if she knew her mother wasn't a bad person, she couldn't pretend that all the hurt she had received from her wasn't there. Past experiences taught her that forgiving might be a good thing, but it would lose its meaning if given so easily. 

Disappointment and sadness flashed across Su Suyin's face when she witnessed her daughter's reluctance. Li Caiyi was the kindest out of the siblings. If even she couldn't say anything to her apology, then she must have hurt her eldest daughter so much.

"I understand. You don't have to say anything for now." Su Suyin smiled. "Just don't act recklessly like yesterday. If something happens, you should rely on your brother or Renshu more."

"...Yes," that was all Li Caiyi could squeeze out of her throat.
