Shao Mei'er was astounded. She stared at Su Qingning in confusion, completely unable to understand why she was crying.
Lin Xiao, however, knew the reason. To put it plainly, those weren't tears of sadness. They were tears of pure excitement—the thrill one feels after a great wrong has finally been avenged.

Not only that, but Zhao Qingqing had then forced her to marry him. Although Su Qingning eventually grew to get along quite well with that man, the trauma Zhao Qingqing had inflicted upon her was forever etched into her heart, a wound that would never heal in this lifetime.
If not for her deep attachment to her mother, Su Qingning would have lost the will to live long ago.
