Feng Jiu’s Mother

"Father, I'm here."

Feng Jiu's voice echoed from outside the room. Upon hearing her voice, Feng Xiao hurriedly lifted his sleeve to wipe his eyes. After regaining his composure, he looked up and saw his daughter coming in.

"Father? What's the matter with you?"Feng Jiu saw his red rimmed eyes and felt somewhat astonished. When she saw that he was holding an amethyst white jade hairpin in his hand, her eyes flickered slightly.

"Nothing." He shook his head, not wanting to say more.

"Nothing? Then, what is this?" She reached out and grabbed the amethyst white jade hairpin from his hand. She smiled and asked her nervous father.

"Little Jiu, be careful not to drop and break it." He stood up quickly, fearing that she might break the hairpin by mistake.
