"Mrs. Kang has been regretting it, and she’s been thinking about you all these years—" said Ling Yiran.
He interrupted her and said, "Don't mention her again. I don't want to hear about her."
She wanted to go on but paused and said no more.
The children were already asleep when they got back to Yi Residence. Ling Yiran and Yi Jinli went back to their bedroom. When Yi Jinli changed out of his clothes, she caught sight of the scar on his chest.
She felt another pang in her heart. The scar was so glaring that it represented the pain he had suffered.
'With current medical technology, he could have removed a scar like that with a laser procedure, but he kept it on his body. Did he do that to remind himself not to forget the pain his mother caused him?'
"Jin, is this really going to make you happy?" Ling Yiran asked abruptly.
"What?" He turned to look at her.
She walked up to him and raised her hand to gently stroke the scar on his chest. "Are you really happy never letting go of the past?"
He stiffened and gave her a complicated look. "What's the matter? Are you going to plead for her again?"
"I want Mrs. Kang to get what she deserves, but I also want you to let go of the past. You’ll never be happy if you don't move on," she said.
"I'll be able to move on when the woman gets the punishment she deserves," he said, pulling her hand down and turning around to enter the bathroom.
Ling Yiran pulled out her phone from the side of her body and frowned at the text message she received today.
