Mo Qing pressed her hand on the letter before pushing it towards Li Zhenzhen: "It concerns you. You can see it, but please don't damage it."

"I won't," Li Zhenzhen replied calmly, got up, took the letter, and read it all at a glance.

After returning the letter, Li Zhenzhen sat down in the guest seat: "Your mother did not lie to you, and her words were actually very subtle and restrained, which can be considered as giving me some face."

Mo Qing didn't speak. Li Zhenzhen smiled again and continued, "Actually, I envied you a lot back then. Although it seemed like you had a controlling mother, she actually loved you very much. Even I, an outsider, could see that she loved you very much. Having such a mother is a blessing."

I used to fantasize that if my mother were like her, my life would be completely different.

To outsiders, my thoughts seem selfish, especially considering I come from a small county town and my parents are both low-level employees.

Parents who have one son and one daughter, treat them equally, and are willing to spend more money to cultivate their children's interests and hobbies are already very rare.

In fact, when I was going through puberty, my mother didn't know to buy me underwear, and she would scold me for being provocative if I secretly used her lipstick.

If there are intimate scenes on TV, they will chase me away. If they see a boy staring at me, they will press my head down first.

My father wouldn't say anything. They were all ordinary citizens, honest and simple, they didn't like trouble and didn't know how to deal with it.

So I suffered a lot of minor bullying. My family always told me to bear it or look for the problem within myself. After a while, when I suffered bigger bullying, I also endured it because I knew they couldn't help me or handle it.

When I was young, I hadn't fully come to terms with things. I both hated and loved them, and inevitably still had expectations of them.

After two more disappointments, all I'll have left is hatred, and then I'll realize I've lost the ability to love. You're lucky to have such a mother; she certainly didn't do anything wrong.

But Li Zhenzhen still harbored resentment towards Mo's mother, because at that time, although she was already crippled, Mo Qing might not have been unable to save her.

Mo Qing listened quietly to everything, put the letter back in the envelope, and looked back at Li Zhenzhen: "I'm sorry, I apologize to you on behalf of my mother."

Li Zhenzhen didn't respond to his question, but instead asked, "Now that you know all this, do you think I'm dirty? If you had known all this back then, would you have despised me and the child?"

Mo Qing looked directly at Li Zhenzhen: "No, just like my mother said, she and I are opposites. If you had come to me back then, I would have married you, and I would have loved our child dearly."

Li Zhenzhen's eyes reddened: "Whether you're lying to me or not, I'm still very happy that you answered like that."

“Tomorrow, my uncle and I will officially add Li Ke’s name to the family genealogy. If you insist on being there, you can join us,” Mo Qing said.

Li Zhenzhen blinked: "Did Li Ke agree?"

Mo Qing frowned: "There's still no news about her, but I have to make my stance clear. No matter what, she's my child, and she has a place in my family."

This time, Li Zhenzhen remained silent. Mo Qing pressed her for an answer: "Don't you have even a little bit of maternal love for Li Ke?"

Li Zhenzhen paused for a moment, her eyes filled with contemplation, before finally saying, "Perhaps we really don't have a mother-daughter bond. At most, I only feel a sense of social responsibility towards her. I don't have maternal love."

Mo Qing: "What about Chen Qi and Chen Jiaojiao?"

Li Zhenzhen: "They were born in a good time and environment. Under those circumstances, I was willing to play the role of a normal mother full of maternal love."

Hearing Li Zhenzhen's frank words, Mo Qing was at a loss for words. Li Zhenzhen thought Mo Qing was dissatisfied with her, so she continued, "I don't even love myself, I don't know how to love myself, so how can I love others? But I can't isolate myself from society, and I want to live a wealthy and carefree life, so I can only perform. In fact, most people in this world are performing, not only performing themselves, but also cooperating with others in their performances."

Mo Qing shook her head: "You're too pessimistic. I invited you here today to tell you about adding Li Ke to the family genealogy, and that I already know about what happened in the past. What's past is past, let's cherish the future. I think we shouldn't see each other again."

Li Zhenzhen: "Whatever you say, but you promised to make sure I have no worries about living here from now on."

Mo Qing stood up to see the guest out: "As long as your request is not excessive, and Li Ke has no objection after returning, I will not retract this decision. However, your other family members have nothing to do with me or Li Ke, and we will not support them for free."

Li Zhenzhen didn't say much after hearing this, and simply stood up and left. Mo Qing stood there for a while before instructing someone to go to the liaison office to inquire about Li Ke's whereabouts.

There's also been no news about the fourth robot at the underwater base. China has reported the situation back, feeling that the robots provided by the West are very immature and have a high failure rate.

The West is furious. How come robots that work normally in their country are causing all sorts of problems in China's hands? They must have used some underhanded tactics.

So they just told China to wait until the next two robots arrived, and then see how things went.

They prepared robots that were about to be scrapped, since they wouldn't come back anyway, and there was no need to waste sending good ones.

Li Ke was digging and digging in the solar energy mine, sometimes dying, sometimes coming back to life. Meanwhile, in the ordinary mine at the other end, a group of people were also digging and digging, getting closer to Li Ke.
