Mrs. Shi was somewhat satisfied with Ling Chuxia's initial words, understanding and tactful, and it seemed unnecessary for her to waste any more breath. However, she never expected Ling Chuxia's pause would lead to what came next.
Perhaps it was unexpected for her to say such words, Mrs. Shi was momentarily stunned.
Ling Chuxia clenched her hand tighter and continued, "Mom... Madam, I know you're doing this for Shi Che, for Shi Mo, for the good of the entire Shi Family. I can understand your actions, but I will not separate from Shi Che anymore. In the past, I gave up on him because of many things, each time thinking it was for his good, yet forgetting to consider his feelings. Is this kind of 'good' what he truly wants? This time, I don't want to fail him again. Even if... you disagree, I can only apologize."
Ling Chuxia's voice was not loud, but every word was spoken with extreme determination.
