Chapter 1149. Loving The Wrong Person (2)
Mu Lingshi fell silent and a faint sorrow could not help but be revealed on her face.
Ah Mo understood. Even though she appeared strong, who could truly let go of something like this? The more Gu Qiwu sided with Doris and them, he only proved that he did not care about her, Mu Lingtian, or Mu Zi.
All these years, she should have gotten used to it by now, yet—
“Alright, Lingshi, it’s fine. It’s all in the past now. Whether or not there was love is no longer important. To Mother, even if Gu Qiwu has even a sliver of feelings for her right now, she will never come back.”
Ah Mo’s hands gently held Lingshi’s frail shoulders and turned her around to face him. He lowered his head and said, “I heard from Brother that relationships and marriage are both just a gamble. It’s not up to us to control whether we win or lose.”
“Yes, but she was too silly to have gambled in something with no end in sight, leaving those left behind in such a tight knot.” Mu Lingshi took a deep breath, turned around, and slowly walked ahead.
“Ah Mo, actually, if Mother could’ve been more rational back then, the outcome might have been very different right now. Apart from love, there are many things worth caring about in life. Do you think that every couple that ends up together truly loves each other?”
“Not necessarily,” Ah Mo answered with certainty.
“Right, not necessarily…That’s why I’ve always felt that people who would die for love, like Mother, are silly and selfish. They just do things on their own terms, and not think about what those left behind would do. I’m not sad because they abandoned me for so many years. I’m sad because they hurt the people that I care about. Do you understand?”
