Li Si had just finished eating when there was a knock at the door. "Come in!" she cleared her throat and spoke with a gentle tone, though her voice was still somewhat hoarse.
Leng Mochen entered and immediately noticed the rosy tint on her pale face, causing his heart to soften. "Little girl, are you feeling better now?"
"Much better. Big brother, come here. I want to talk to you about something!" Li Si pulled Leng Mochen to sit beside her and carefully explained what had happened yesterday. As she reached the end of the story, sadness overtook her, and tears fell once more. Who could tell her what the real truth was?
"Big brother, do you think what she said could be true? Am I really not my dad's child? Then where are my real parents? Did they abandon me? Did they not want me?"
Li Si cried loudly, as if the only way to vent her inner grievances, frustration, and fear of the unknown was through her tears!
