Chapter 325: Any Word Can Ignite Public Opinion

Lu Sheng's mother had already passed away. Not wanting to sadden the young girl, Li Muchen seldom took the initiative to ask about Lu Sheng's mother, and Lu Sheng herself rarely mentioned her.

"Or rather, she always seemed to be avoiding the subject of that time and our family in Beijing; she didn't want to talk about it."

"When I was little, whenever I asked if we had any other relatives, my mother would tell me not to ask, but she often looked very pained."
