How could Zhang Yichen possibly not know what his mother's heart truly wished for? As a woman, losing the man she loved the most was the greatest sorrow. She didn't want much, but who should bear responsibility for all these outcomes in the end? No one ever considered how difficult her life truly was. He used to resent his mother for abandoning him, but it wasn't until today when he heard all the words his mother said to him, that he realized how hard and painful her life had been. What she wanted now was very little—just to quietly accompany her mother. Perhaps that would be enough. For this lifetime, he shouldn't demand too much. As long as his family can always stay by his side, enduring some grievances should be worthwhile.
He once gave up the opportunity to bring his parents back home over so-called dignity, pride, and face, refusing them time and again. Who can understand the feeling of being turned away? Who can fathom the pain that stems from deep within?
