Li Guifen, with a face full of disbelief, saw that she really didn't want to say more, so she didn't press further. She added, "Don't be shy to speak up. There's nothing you can't say. I'm your mother. If Tingfan ever bullies you, I'll take him on, even if it risks my life."
She paused for a moment, "But you shouldn't bully him either. If it's your fault, I, as your mother, will hit you too."
"Qiao'er, now that life is better, just live well. It's normal to argue. Just let it go a little."
Her nagging was full of concern for her daughter, and inside, Lin Qiao sighed before finally relenting, "Alright."
Her daughter agreed, but Li Guifen didn't feel satisfied. Her daughter used to be stubborn and wouldn't listen. Now that she suddenly agreed, she must've been wronged.
"Did Tingfan bully you? Is there someone else outside?"
Lin Qiao: "..."
