Mother Ruan's figure standing at the entrance of the apartment building grew smaller and smaller until it disappeared from sight. Only then did Ruan Shiyu move her gaze away from the car window and let out a long sigh. "Every time I leave home, I feel so miserable. I almost don't want to come back."
