"Uncle, my mom is always sick, do you think she could die?!"
Helian Chengyan's eyes clouded with dense mist, his heart aching spasmodically.
He embraced Little Cherry in his arms, speaking with unwavering certainty, "Your mom won't die!"
"Really?"
"Mm, Uncle won't let her die!"
Helian Chengyan wished she would suffer, yet when he actually heard she was not doing well, his heart felt as if it were being sliced open.
She had struggled so much to finally escape from him. Even if he died, he would never allow her to die!
"Your mom is sick, and your dad isn't by her side to take care of her?" Helian Chengyan remembered what Little Cherry had said before, that when they were back home, it was just her and her mom eating together, very lonely.
Little Cherry didn't know how to answer this question.
She tilted her little head, thought for a while, and then said, "Daddy can't often be by Mommy's side. The ones who spend the most time with Mommy are me, my little aunt, and Uncle Miu!"
