章節 122: A Father’s Burden

"I don't think you have much to worry about Novice Su. If she concealed matters from you, she only concealed enough to love you honestly," Wu Ling said, hoping to soothe the clearly agitated scholar. "Su Yao has a rare gift. It sounds like the gift skips many generations in the Zou family, but the curse that goes with that gift, and misunderstandings about that gift, can lead to a good deal of persecution." 

"If your daughter didn't inherit her particular gift," Wu Ling continued. "This might never have come up because it wouldn't have been relevant to anything. The woman you love is the same as she's ever been and your daughter has a brighter future than you could have imagined as long as she can overcome the adversity that comes with it."
