  Zhuang Nainai was stunned. She stammered, “Wh-what did you say?”


  Li Yufeng explained, “I am your mother. After I gave birth to you in the hospital, this woman stole you away. Your father and I have been looking for you for over twenty years.”


  Zhuang Nainai felt as though she had been struck by lightning.

  She never would have thought that the mother she had lived with for so many years was actually unrelated to her.

  All her emotions disappeared. Overwhelmed, her mind went blank.

  Gu Deshou knitted his brows and Li Yufeng let out a sigh. She hesitated and patted Zhuang Nainai on the shoulders. “Child, you have suffered all these years.”


  Zhuang Nainai watched Li Yufeng in a daze.

  She then turned and looked at her clueless mother hiding behind her back.

  She hypothesized on all the theories relating to her father, but never had she suspected her mother.

  “No, I don’t believe it……” Zhuang Nainai shook her head. She could not accept this.

  Li Yufeng wrinkled her brows and appeared displeased. She nodded to the secretary, who handed Zhuang Nainai a phone. In a calm and collected tone, she said, “This is the security footage from the hospital twenty years ago.”


  Zhuang Nainai looked down.

  Even though the images were not clear, she could tell without a doubt that the woman sneaking into the maternity ward and whisking away the baby was her mother.

  It was foolproof evidence.

  Zhuang Nainai felt her world crumble.

  Her knees gave way and she stumbled.

  Mother Zhuang instantly grasped her hands even more tightly in hers and asked, “Nainai, what’s wrong? Did someone bully you?”


  Zhuang Nainai looked at her mother, then the floodgates opened and tears poured down her face.

  Her mother was immaculate even though she was sick, but the hardships she had had to endure made her look at least ten years older than Li Yufeng.

  When she was little, if she was ill, her mother would always look after her with utmost care. Mother was herself weak in health and had frequent asthma attacks, but she struggled to make ends meet and run the household.

  How could a mother like this steal someone else’s child?

  Mother Zhuang was clueless about what was going on. She hugged her daughter’s shoulders and gently patted her on the back. “Nainai, don’t cry, mother will buy you candies……”


  Zhuang Nainai was hit with the sudden realization that she looked nothing like her mother. She, on the other hand, saw her features in Gu Deshou and Li Yufeng.

  Zhuang Nainai was heartbroken and did not know what to do. She only hugged her mother tighter.

  Eyeing the harmonious closeness between the mother and daughter, Li Yufeng’s eyes narrowed and vehemently pointed towards Mother Zhuang. “This woman stole my daughter and kept us apart for more than twenty years! And she made you suffer so much! I’m going to the police, I will sue her and let justice be done!”


  “NO!” Zhuang Nainai instinctively objected. “You can’t do that!”


  Mother was living in a daze and could remember nothing these days. Zhuang Nainai did not want a one-sided story.

  Furthermore, mother had been so good to her since she was little. She had brought her up by herself. Even if she did steal her as a child, how could she bear to put someone she had depended on for over twenty years behind bars?

  Li Yufeng crinkled her brows and looked at Zhuang Nainai in disbelief. “How could you take a thief as your mother?”
