The air was deathly silent for a moment.
Huo Tingdong's thin lips were faintly pursed, as he asked, "Who decides whether one is qualified or not, you? Have you unilaterally decided that Jin Lilai and Li Wanru are not qualified to be parents? Is it only valid if you say so?"
Lin Qi's eyes suddenly reddened: "They were never good parents... They only know how to enslave their daughter, to control her life, never considering the child's wellbeing..."
Perhaps in Lili, she saw her own destiny.
She was still studying at the time, planning to go straight from a master's to a Ph.D., aiming for a scholarship to study abroad. But Lin Cheng forced her to interrupt her studies, arranging her marriage early.
Lin Qi said, "All I wish for is that Lili could have good parents... Not like me, forced to abandon my studies at a young age and hastily marry someone!"
Huo Tingdong's expression changed once more.
Suddenly he asked, "Do you think marrying me was a hasty decision?"
Lin Qi froze.
