Under the current circumstances, we can only act subtly, not forcefully," Lu Mu continued,
"Comrade, I beg you! The children’s great aunt, for our family, is truly very important. I—I’m kneeling down for you!"
As she spoke, Liu Qi’s mother attempted to kneel before Ni Yang, who thankfully stopped her in time.
"Auntie, please don’t do this."
"Comrade, just let these two children fulfill their filial duties to their great aunt! After so many years, their great aunt must have suffered a lot out there. We’ve only just managed to find out about her whereabouts, how can you bear to see us endure the pain of being apart from her?" ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
"We just want her to live well in her last moments."
Liu Qi’s mother cried so much her voice was nearly lost, tears streaming down her face.
"Sorry, I can’t help you with this." Ni Yang pushed away Liu Qi’s mother’s hand, "Auntie, I have other things to tend to, I’m leaving."
With that, Ni Yang turned and left.
Liu Qi’s mother tried to hold onto Ni Yang, but Liu Qi’s father stopped her.
Liu Qi’s father watched Ni Yang’s retreating figure and called out loudly, "Comrade, if the children’s great aunt is willing to meet with us, please come find us at the Mansion in Beijing."
Ni Yang moved quickly, disappearing from sight in a moment, leaving it uncertain whether she heard the words or not.
"Why did you stop me just now?" Liu Qi’s mother asked Liu Qi’s father, continuing, "Don’t you want to find our elder sister?"
Liu Qi’s father shook his head, "Since they don’t want to talk, even if you cry your eyes out, it’s useless. As long as we’re sure she’s in Beijing, we’ll find a way."
After saying this, Liu Qi’s father continued, "Besides, I’ve already given her our address. If the children’s great aunt wants to see us, she will surely send her to find us."
"Okay," Liu Qi’s mother nodded, "Then all right, I’ll listen to you."
Liu Qi’s mother was a particularly perceptive person; she wasn’t spoiled or arrogant, not even with Liu Qi’s father’s pampering, and would never make unreasonable demands.
In front of Liu Qi’s father, she was always a gentle and clingy person,
Because only a gentle and clingy person could satisfy a man’s vanity.
If she didn’t have any tactics, would her status in Liu Qi’s father’s heart have remained the same for so many years?
