Jiang Nian was so startled that she didn't speak for a long time.
When she finally came to her senses, she couldn't help but ask, "Ye Xi, do you want to find that child?"
Poked right at the heart by Jiang Nian, Ye Xi felt somewhat ashamed.
Ye Xi said, "I know I should keep the promise made back then and make a clean break from that child, but Niannian... I don't even know what's wrong with me? When I learned that the child was still alive, I began to uncontrollably want to see him, even just a glance would do, to know that he's living safely. That would be enough for me."
But Jiang Nian didn't see it that way.
With a flush from drinking some alcohol, Jiang Nian's face turned red.
She said, "Ye Xi, human desires know no bounds. Right now, you only want to see the child, but once you really do, you may want even more. After all, the bond between mother and child isn't something rationality can easily control."
Ye Xi was very upset.
