"Your father and I have really gotten over it. From now on, the future presidents of the country will still be members of the Tuoba family. Hence, once your Father steps down from his position, he shall hand over the duties to another qualified candidate, regardless of whether he's from the extended family or not. I understand that you're worried that having an extended family member be the president would be disadvantageous to us, but Xiaoning, I'm no longer afraid. There's nothing I fear now that I have you. If we start worrying now, wouldn't we be extremely tired all the time? I'm lucky enough to be able to reunite with you and your father. There's nothing else I have to wish for. I only hope that we'll be safe and sound for the rest of our lives."
An Xiaoning's qualms vanished instantly, and she felt as if a boulder had been lifted off her shoulders.
"Mother, you're right."
"Sons and daughters are all the same. You're my shoulder to lean on."
