Chapter 205

he said, "You don't believe I was pretending?"

"I believe you."

Chen Fan pulled Song Zuer over, then sat down on the edge of the bed.

Head lowered, then slowly raised.

The weariness and tenderness in his eyes appeared before Song Zuer in an instant.

His voice gradually changed as well.

Chen Fan said softly, "Little girl, you've grown so big already?"

A familiar voice, not a familiar face, yet that familiar tenderness made Song Zuer feel, for one instant, that this was her own mother.

In an instant, Zuer could no longer hold it in; she threw her arms around Chen Fan and wept without restraint.

Chen Fan gently stroked Song Zuer's head, just like a mother caressing her own daughter.

"Don't cry anymore. Mommy doesn't blame you, really."

"But it was because I was a picky eater, because I was greedy, that you got sick in the end and left, wasn't it?"

Did Song Zuer come out of it?

No one knows. Only the observant would notice that Song Zuer never picked at her food again; her liking for any food at all had been completely lost from the day her mother left.

Eating anything at all, she was quiet, calm.

Back in his room, Qin Ming opened his notebook.
