What would happen if she left? Would Gu Zhen forget about her?
Song Xuantin's dad crouched down, and persuaded her, "In the States, Mommy and Daddy can be with you anywhere. We can visit the parks you haven't been to on our day off. Mommy will cook your favorite dish. Although we will busy, we will do our best to always bring you with us."
Mommy Song also convinced her daughter, "There, nobody will call you 'fatty'. Mommy can help you with your diet. Everyone will be your friend."
It was a tempting offer. She would be with her parents most of the time. No one would badmouth her and call her 'piggy'. There, she could start all over again and be pretty.
But...
"Are we going to live in the States forever? Are we not going to return here?"
Mommy Song and Daddy Song looked at each other.
"Do you want to return?" Her parents asked
"I want to." Song Xuantin nodded.
