"Yes, but the more he tries to put me first in everything, the more I feel... I'm afraid I'm making the wrong decision, you know? This decision isn't just about being myself."
"Why?" Shen Jingchuan asked, puzzled. "Whose decision are you making for? Isn't this your own business?"
"The people who gave me life. I am very grateful to them for giving me life."

"Yes. She really is a great mother, and she never hid my existence from my biological father. Perhaps I shouldn't go against her wishes?"
