Lin Qi suddenly fell silent for a while, then asked, "Actually, if adoption is necessary, one could go through some channels. Even without marriage, adoption procedures can be processed; I've already looked into it."
Huo Tingdong asked, "Why do you insist on adopting her?"
Lin Qi replied, "Because Lili is too pitiful."
Moreover, Lili was severely injured trying to protect Han. How could she bear to hurt Lili and send her somewhere else?
Huo Tingdong said, "There are so many pitiful people in the world. Isn't your sister very pitiful too? Can you really care for all these people? And with your abilities, can you afford to raise three children?"
Lin Qi knitted her brows slightly, "Are you saying, if I don't have the capability, you won't take responsibility either, right?"
She didn't demand that Huo Tingdong raise Lili with her, but his words gave her an inexplicable feeling of loss.
Huo Tingdong paused, "That's not what I meant."
