Zhou Mo felt a little embarrassed by the care of the mother and son.

After Han Chen left, Zhou Mo and Liang Xinyun said, "Auntie, you are too enthusiastic towards me... I..." I can't bear it.

Liang Xinyun said, "I'm afraid I'll treat you badly."

She pulled Zhou Mo over and sat him down. "If it weren't for... some special reasons, I'd always wanted a daughter. Well, it's not that boys are bad, it's just that—I still envy your parents. Daughters are so dependent on their parents, and no matter how old they are, they always think of their parents. It's hard to keep a child when he grows up. Look at Han Chen. If he hadn't been unable to stay in the capital, he wouldn't have thought of running to Dongjiang to find me. I'm afraid we wouldn't see each other more than a few times in a year or two."

"Why didn't you go to the imperial capital with him?" Zhou Mo asked.

"I don't like it there."

Zhou Mo nodded without asking any further questions.

"Han Chen didn't like it there either," Liang Xinyun said, "but... well, what man doesn't have ambitions? In the capital, with connections and relationships, you can make a career. Han Chen used to be ambitious, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to the orthopedics department at Mingde General Hospital. But then he probably felt it was boring and the people were cold, and he decided Dongjiang was better, and since you're here, he came back."

Zhou Mo was slightly startled. "Han Chen shouldn't be doing this for me, right?"

Liang Xinyun smiled. "To say it was just because of you is unrealistic. I can only say that you were definitely one of the reasons he returned to Dongjiang. No one knows Han Chen better than me. He always acts before he thinks. Perhaps before he even realizes he returned to Dongjiang because of you, he's already there."
