When Meixi's name came up, Li Shirui fell silent.
After a while, she asked, "How is Xiao Xi doing now?"
"She has a good mindset and treats me just like before."
Li Shirui's eyes lit up with hope, "Then, did she mention us?"
"No," Xi Wanfen said.
Li Shirui's expression turned sorrowful, "Alas, we ultimately failed her."
Xi Wanfen said, "Mom, don't think like that. Sister Su doesn't really care at all. Besides, a friend once told me something. He said that being good to someone isn't about whether they need it, but whether you want to give it. If you truly care about Sister Su, then within the bounds she allows, you can still do something."
Li Shirui said, "I'm just afraid that she absolutely doesn't need it."
"Then, it's better not to disturb her. People can't always have everything," said Xi Wanfen, then continued, "Mom, I'm going upstairs to shower; my underwear is all sweaty."
"Go ahead," Li Shirui said, then sat on the sofa and stared blankly at the unturned TV.
