The two walked to the bed in the corner. The girl looked at Ning Youguang and said, "I see it in my mom. It's really terrifying not to grow up. She's forever stuck in a single mindset externally, unable to see others, unable to see changes in the outside world. So she always treats others in one way. For example, the things I loved over a decade ago, I don't like them anymore. She seems unable to see it, still thinking I love them, then makes things I don't need, and she gets angry when I don't accept them. The problem is she doesn't get it; I no longer like those things, and I don't need her to do them. What I need her to do, she doesn't do. What I don't need her to do, she presumes to do. When I'm not receptive, she gets angry, looking as if I owe her millions, just like with my brother. We're really at a loss; being with her is exhausting."
"Have you ever told her you don't like those things?" Ning Youguang asked.
