Wu Mei couldn't help but shake her head and smile bitterly, saying self-deprecatingly, "I never thought that after leaving for so long and hiding for so long, I would still end up meeting someone from the Yellow Springs..."
Looking at the sake in her glass, she drank it down in one gulp with a charming and unrestrained manner that was completely different from her name!
Just then, a beautiful young woman stood at the door. Looking at the charming woman with a melancholy expression, she knocked on the door before coming in.
"Mother, you've been looking downcast since you came back from the Shadow Hall, and you've locked yourself in here. What happened?" The girl's voice was cold and devoid of any emotion.
She shook her head charmingly. "It's none of your business. You don't need to worry about it."
"Mother, are the people from the Shadow Hall planning to attack our Wanbao Palace? If so, let me lead men and wipe them out!" The girl's voice was still icy, but she had an eager and ready attitude to fight.
With a serious expression, Wu Mei did not respond to her words, but instead beckoned and said, "Qing'er, come and sit in front of me."
Hua Qing'er nodded and stepped in front of Wu Mei, saying, "Mother."
The alluring woman raised her hand and stroked Hua Qing'er's youthful face. "Qing'er, if one day your mother has to leave you..."
Before Wu Mei could finish speaking, Hua Qing'er interrupted her, "Mother, Qing'er is already sixteen years old, no longer a child in your eyes! If you have any difficulties, please tell Qing'er, and Qing'er will share them with you!"
Wu Mei looked at Hua Qing'er and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Sigh, you've been stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat since you were little, and you still like to ask questions even when you're older. How am I supposed to talk to you about this?"
"Mother, I..."
Before Hua Qing'er could say anything more, she waved her hand charmingly, "Never mind, you can leave now."
Hua Qing'er clenched her fists, her face full of resentment, and said, "I know that Mother dislikes Qing'er because she is a woman, so she is unwilling to hand over everything of Wanbao Palace to me to manage. But you must know that I am your only family in this world!"
Looking at Hua Qing'er's serious face, Wu Mei's eyes flickered with disappointment, "Your only family member..."
A familiar figure flashed through my memory; she was alluring yet still wore a bitter smile, shaking her head slightly as she looked at Hua Qing'er.
If you are my family
Then he is my family.
Not mine—
