She was the one who had taught him what love meant, who had made him believe in it.
And then, she was the one who destroyed it.
The words she had said so many times, the I love you that had once been pure were all declared to be lies.
From that day on, Li Shen's words, I love you, became lies too.
And his mother's warmth, her care, her attention... Disappeared from his life completely.
Even when Li Shen was at home, it was as if his mother couldn't see him.
At first, his father would scold her gently for ignoring him, but since he was always busy with work, he probably gave up after a while.
Eventually, that coldness became the normal state of their home.
Still, every day, Li Shen continued to greet her from "good morning" to "good night."
He knew she wouldn't respond, but some small part of him kept hoping she might.
So he talked to her again and again pretending things were still normal.
