"Later, why did you run away again?" Chiang Xiao asked again.
Chiang Qingzhu looked at her with some sorrow and said, "At that time, many people in the village cursed me, and they cursed you too, saying you were the offspring of some unknown man. It upset me greatly. They also said that your dad was definitely some scoundrel with leprosy. I couldn't let them insult Ah Liu like that, nor could I let you continue to be a child without a dad, unable to be registered in the household. So, I thought to go looking for Ah Liu."
Was this because she couldn't bear the thought of her not having a dad, or was it that she couldn't let go of that man?
Chiang Xiao's gaze flickered.
