An Ran never expected her mom to react this way.
She was a bit stunned for a moment.
"Ranran." An's mom fixed her hands on An Ran's shoulders, shaking her forcefully, "You absolutely cannot be with Chi Cheng, do you hear me..."
"Why..." An Ran moved her lips, "He and I aren't biological siblings, why can't we be together? Don't you like him too, mom?"
"I said no, so no!" An's mom became even more emotional, suddenly clutching her chest and coughing.
An Ran quickly helped her by patting her back, "Mom, are you okay?"
"As long as you promise not to be with Chi Cheng, I'll be fine." When An's mom looked at An Ran again, her eyes were full of tears, "Ranran, promise mom."
An Ran was brought up by her mom alone from a young age.
She had never seen her dad; her mom said her dad had long passed away.
So An Ran had always been very understanding.
Whatever her mom said, she would obediently listen.
But this time...
