Facing Ding Long's accusations, Father Ding and Mother Ding cried out in pain, "Do you really hate us this much?"
"Hate? What's the use? Hate can't bring Baobei back," Ding Long sneered. "You love my aunt's grandson so much, that's perfect. From now on, let my aunt's grandson support you in your old age and bury you. That way, your love for him won't have been a waste."
With that, Ding Long turned around and walked straight in without looking back at his parents.
Do I not hate them?
Ding Long asked himself, but his heart answered that it was impossible. He had entrusted his wife and daughter to his parents, yet because of his parents' neglect, his wife and daughter ended up as they did now, tragically, leaving him unsure of how to atone.
If he had known his parents would be like this, he would never have sent Ding Jinshi and Baobei back to the Ding Mansion in the first place.
Ding Long went to prison, but Lan Song's parents were still at large.
