"This... this..."
"What's wrong? Is there some unpleasant past between you and my mother?" Ning Fan asked in confusion.
Zhao Xue'er quickly shook her head, "No, it's not that! I didn't expect you've forgotten so completely... this is really a... very cruel topic for you."
A very cruel topic concerning my mother?
Ning Fan took a deep breath and tried hard to search through the vague memories, but still found nothing.
Forgetting his parents completely, it's unthinkable, it's such an unfilial act.
Ning Fan clenched the bicycle handle hard and sighed, saying:
"It's fine, Xue'er, you should tell me, what exactly did my mother go through?"
"Well... you rarely mentioned your mother before, and hearing words like 'mom' would make you very upset... I only know your mother's background wasn't very good, and she was... killed very early..."
Zhao Xue'er was still avoiding Ning Fan's gaze, with a slight blush on her face, like a girl who has done something wrong.
