"Go ahead, tell me what you really want."
I leaned wearily against the wall of the rooftop, letting the night wind mess up my hair.
Lu Fei looked at me like this and finally spoke.
"Our son misses you, and... I miss you too. I hope you can come back. I promise I'll spend the rest of my life making amends."
I let out a mocking laugh, peering at his eyes through the strands of hair that sometimes blocked my sight. Those eyes I had gazed into so lovingly countless times.
"Why do you think I would ever come back? Do I seem that cheap? Is the rest of your life so desirable?"
"Then go find someone who thinks it is, like Mingcan."
Lu Fei knew what I had misunderstood and hurriedly explained.
"I didn't marry Mingcan."
"Even if not for me, you should for our son. He hasn't called her 'Mom'; he will always be your son."
"If you come back with me, I'll treat Wei Yi like my own daughter."
The person in front of me said self-righteously.
