No Ifs

"Mother." Hao'er called out as he came to her side.

Feng Jiu reached out to hold his hand and she pulled him into her arms, then she said softly: "Hao'er, can Mother send you back to your Father's house?"

Upon hearing this, Hao'er's body stiffened, and his eyes turned red suddenly. He lowered his head and said nothing, but his mouth pursed together in grievance.

"Hao'er." Feng Jiu turned him around to face her. 

"Mother, does Mother not like Hao'er anymore?" He raised his head and asked with tears in his eyes. He felt sad inside, he felt sad and wanted to cry when he thought that his mother didn't like boys, but he held back his tears. 

Feng Jiu was startled when she heard this. She smiled and stretched out her hand to rub his head: "Silly child, what nonsense are you talking about? How can Mother not want Hao'er? What is there not to like about Hao'er? You will forever be Mother's good son, Mother loves you the most."
