After they sat around the bed, Shen Mingyue forced a smile, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke.

"Mu Yun, can you... can you still contact Jiang He?"

"I...I want to see him..."

Shen Mingyue's tone was bitter.

If Jiang Hechuan hadn't had Lao Zhou kidnap Jiang He, Jiang He would have continued to live with them.

Perhaps, the mother and son wouldn't be so hostile towards each other like enemies.

No matter what, Jiang He is still her biological son.

Especially after learning about Jiang Bai's background and Jiang Hechuan's betrayal.

Shen Mingyue, unusually calm, felt a pang of guilt towards Jiang He.

This sense of guilt was amplified even more after learning that he might have a terminal illness.

This was the moment when Shen Mingyue was most vulnerable and emotional.

Even though he hadn't suffered too much torment from being betrayed by Jiang Hechuan, he was still in so much pain.

What about Jiang He?

He was kidnapped by human traffickers at the behest of his own father and left to be tortured for ten years.

Even after being found, she remained indifferent and ignored him.

What excruciating pain that must have been.

Is he feeling just as helpless, in pain, sad, and distressed as I am right now?

She suddenly wanted to see Jiang He and talk to him.

I also want to say sorry to him.

She is not a good mother.

If she had paid more attention to Jiang He back then, would Jiang Hechuan have had the guts to let someone kidnap Jiang He?

Can't we just abandon Jiang He so recklessly?

I also want to ask him how he is doing now.

Does he hate her too?
