Li Yufeng’s eyes became red instantly. “I only did that last time because I had no choice. But Nuonuo, I love you so much and I am your mother. How can I not want you? In this world, is there any mother who wouldn’t want her child?”


  Mi Nuo clenched her fists tightly. “Then tell me, what exactly happened?”


  It was the abandonment back then that had led to her tragedy today.

  She knew that her mind was already twisted. However, if any woman were to lose the most important organ in her body, her mind would probably become twisted too.

  She had nowhere to vent all her frustrations, so she could only vent it on Mother Zhuang, and then on Zhuang Nainai.

  However, what Old Zhong and his wife had said last time aroused her suspicions. Distressed, she looked at Li Yufeng with an unwavering gaze and said, “Tell me.”


  Li Yufeng’s tears rolled down her cheeks immediately. Clenching her fists tightly, she watched as her daughter looked at her with such a cold gaze. She swallowed before saying, “You know how difficult it was for me to move to a big city from my village home. But when I came here, I realized how unfair the world is. No matter how hard one works, there are some things that just can’t be changed.

  “After I graduated from college, I found a job. As a college graduate, I wanted to lead a superior life, but what can a few thousand dollars do for me?!”


  Mi Nuo bit her lip. “So, Gu Deshou was your target? I understand why you want to climb up the social ladder, but how can you be so merciless to your own daughter?!”


  “I wasn’t, I wasn’t!” Li Yufeng said. “It’s not what you think it is. Nuonuo, I have never thought of abandoning you! That was just an interim plan! Gu Deshou and Zhuang Meiting were so deeply in love with each other. There was no way I could get in between them. I became pregnant. Gu Deshou wanted the child, but he still could not let go of that woman who couldn’t even give birth. He told me that he would give me $500,000 if I gave him the child and left. But how could I bear to separate with my own child? Moreover, what could $500,000 do? You know $500,000 was just enough to buy an apartment at that time! If you really lived with them, Zhuang Meiting would surely have mistreated you if she had her child in the future. And I had put in so much effort to come in between them, so how could I give up just like that?! Later on, I found out that Zhuang Meiting was a very complacent person, so I’d devised a scheme.

  “I asked her to bring you to Old Zhong and lied to Gu Deshou that she kidnapped my child and sold her to a human trafficker out of jealousy. I wanted to fetch you back after I successfully sowed discord between them. But who knew that things wouldn’t go as planned?!”


  After saying this, she stepped forward and held Mi Nuo’s hand. “Nuonuo, I didn’t expect you to be kidnapped by someone due to Old Zhong’s negligence. I really didn’t think that Old Zhong and the others would lose you!”


  Lose her?

  Mi Nuo’s eyes widened. So that’s how she ended up in that small mountain village?

  Biting her lip, she suddenly did not know what to say. She could only feel a sense of shock overwhelm her. She bit her lip before flinging Li Yufeng’s hand away and taking a step back.

  She had always thought that she was kidnapped by Zhuang Meiting. She had thought that she sold her to that mountain village because she wanted to take revenge on Li Yufeng. But to her surprise, this was the truth……
