Chapter 416: Because of Love, Learning to be Numb

Su Mu had known about the existence of the "left-behind children" for quite some time, occasionally paying attention to news about them, but she had never interacted with them before, so she couldn't truly understand the environment these children lived in. Now that she was amidst it, the only emotions left in her heart were sorrow and endless reflection.

It was a society where the gap between rich and poor was increasingly evident; they lived in cities where, even if people were struggling, they could at least live with dignity. However, when Su Mu arrived in the mountainous area, she found that basic utilities like electricity and water weren't even guaranteed. Children had to walk several kilometers on mountain roads to go to school and looked at her like she was an alien, shyly keeping their distance.
