"Do you hate her?"
Tang Mo asked as she ripped the tape from her mouth.
She wasn't in a hurry to leave. Ah Lian and the man had both gone on a mission and wouldn't be back for a while.
And Xiao Mo's mother had only just left. Even if she returned early, with Tang Mo's strength, she didn't consider the woman a threat in the slightest.
She hadn't resisted before, but not because she was afraid.
"It's okay. It was just harder before, when I was never sure if she loved me. I was always giving myself a hard time, wondering if I wasn't obedient or good enough. I'm much better now. I know it wasn't my fault."
Xiao Mo's eyes were clear and frank. Tang Mo couldn't tell if she was just hiding it too well, but she truly couldn't see a hint of sadness in them.
"It's been three months. I can't keep tormenting myself forever, right?"
Xiao Mo even curved her lips into a slight smile.
