Li Si had never experienced motherly love since she was young, and her longing for a mother had always been there. As a child, whenever she saw her classmates being picked up by their moms after school, she envied them to the point of heartbreak.
Especially back then, it wasn't common to buy ready-made sweaters; everyone knit their own. She envied those classmates who wore sweaters hand-knitted by their moms the most, thinking they must feel incredibly warm.
The most unforgettable memory from all these years was of her elementary school desk mate, Wang Zhiqing, a pretty little girl. Every time Wang Zhiqing opened her pencil case, it was filled with neatly sharpened pencils! She always boasted proudly, saying her mom had sharpened them for her!
