Chapter 625: Even the Right Father Can’t Help
Chapter 625: Even the Right Father Can’t Help
Over the years, she had long since seen everything clearly, her heart already ashen with despair. Her only hope was to guard his body, waiting for the day, just as Yun Zidu said, when he might be resurrected.
But even this singular hope had been shattered.
The Beiming Pearl was lost, Yun Zidu was trapped in the Delusion Void Array, and the soul of Fengxi, sealed within the Beiming Pearl, very likely had also dissipated into nothingness because of this. Over the years, she had sought many people, tried countless methods, but could not discover where Fengxi’s soul had gone.
She didn’t even know if there was any point to her continued search.
Yet, it was the only reason she had left to live.
She never thought she would see that child again one day.
"As a mother, it is I who owes you. Indeed, it was I who abandoned you back then." Han Litong looked at Han Jing: "I do not deny what I have done, nor do I expect your understanding and forgiveness. Whether you blame me or not, I have never regretted it."
Han Litong’s few words left everyone except Han Jing staring at her in disbelief.
They simply could not imagine that such words could come from a mother.
Only Han Jing, with a smile still playing on her lips, seemed as if she hadn’t heard Han Litong’s words, or perhaps, she simply did not care about them at all.
Even the corners of Han Qingjue’s mouth twitched with irony.
She always knew that her ethereal mother only cared about her love life. Daughters or not, it just didn’t matter much to her.
She really hadn’t thought that she and Han Jing turned out to be half-sisters with the same mother, but should she count herself lucky? At least her mother didn’t throw her away right after giving birth.
How ironic, indeed, real sisters of the same mother, haha.
"Of course, you don’t need to regret it. Really, thank you for not regretting. Otherwise, with a mother like you, I might have already died hundreds of times by now. So don’t overthink it, nor desperately hate me to the bone. If I had the choice, I wouldn’t want to have been born from your womb." Han Jing was not the least bit sad, nor did she feel any grief.
With no expectations, there is no disappointment, and thus no hurt.
She never held even the slightest expectation for Han Litong, from start to finish, whether Han Litong had her reasons, whether deliberate or not.
She already had the best mother in the world. Not mentioning that Han Litong saw nothing in her, Han Litong also meant nothing to her.
The main purpose of her visit today was to save Yun Feng, and then to disturb Han Litong. The more certain Han Litong was that she felt no regret, the more entertaining the moment she learned the truth would be.
If Han Litong had shown immense guilt, acknowledging all kinds of helplessness before abandoning her, she might feel a tiny bit of guilt about revealing the truth to her. Now... she was probably more excited, genuinely looking forward to observing Han Litong’s expression when she learned the truth.
Han Jing glanced at the irony on Han Qingjue’s face, clicking her tongue. Indeed, how amusing! It seemed the famously beloved Miss of Beihan Palace wasn’t as blissful and fortunate as imagined! It served no purpose to have the right father, after all!
