Meng Qianqian was, of course, surprised.
Her mother had long passed away, so why could she see her so clearly now?
Even though she had some suspicions before, they were merely guesses, things that even Si Snake couldn't confirm.
She stared at the other as if trying to see every single hair on her face clearly.
Zhongli Yuan gently touched her cheek, "Let mom have a good look at you."
Meng Qianqian felt the familiar warmth from those familiar fingertips, "Mom, is it really you?"
Zhongli Yuan said, "It's me, sorry, so many years have passed, and only now have I truly returned to your side."
Meng Qianqian asked, choking, "Where did you go?"
"Mom..."
Zhongli Yuan's eyes slightly moved, hesitant to speak, and after a moment, said with shame, "Mom was also powerless."
Meng Qianqian said, feeling wronged, "Powerless? Why powerless? What happened? All these years I kept thinking... kept thinking..."
Zhongli Yuan looked at her with gentle eyes, "Thinking what?"
