Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Mommy, if you eat this golden ingot, you’ll have lots of money and won’t have to worry anymore,” little Xiao Xiao earnestly declared, cradling the golden ingot with utmost reverence.
Before Coco could respond, the door unexpectedly swung open, and Shen Ning rushed in, panting heavily.
“Coco.” The moment she entered, she embraced him tightly, holding him as though she feared he might slip away.
“Mommy?” Coco looked puzzled.
“Coco, please tell Mommy quickly, have you met a man named Li Zhenting recently?” Shen Ning held Coco tightly, trembling all over.
Coco’s face paled.
Oh no, he thought, Mommy has probably found out about him and Ding Ding!
What should he do?
“Come on, do you know him?” With no response from Coco, she grew increasingly anxious, lowering her head to look at her son’s small face.
Coco opened his mouth…
Shen Ning seemed to grasp the situation. Her face darkened, her body grew icy, and her hand holding Coco started to shake.
At the Li manor.
Ding Ding sat on the couch, engrossed in flipping through a comic book.
Mommy had told him not to spend too much time on his phone, as it wasn’t good for his eyes. So, after a while on his phone, he had turned to his comic book.
Shen Mei approached him.
“Ding Ding.” She called out.
“Yeah.” Ding Ding didn’t lift his head, simply responding with a nonchalant “yeah.”
Shen Mei stood in front of him, scrutinizing his small face. It looked exactly like Li Zhenting’s—so delicate and strikingly handsome.
Her eyes filled with coldness, and she clenched her fingers tightly. Then she turned and walked toward the water dispenser.
A while later, she took Ding Ding’s water glass and relaxed her grip on it, revealing a packet of white powder on the palm of her hand.
Ding Ding, it’s not my fault. It’s yours for being so troublesome!
You actually opposed my marriage to your dad, so I’ll ensure you become foolish!
“Mommy.” She had just picked up the hot water and was about to add the medicine when, suddenly, Lan Lan ran over from behind.
Startled, Shen Mei trembled, and the medicine powder spilled onto the floor.
“Lan Lan, why are you so jumpy?” Shen Mei scolded her without patience, hurriedly wiping away the spilled powder with a tissue.
Lan Lan stood there, looking bewildered.
She had only called out “Mommy.” What was there to be so surprised about?
Mommy’s temper had been growing stranger lately, and she seemed to get angry with her for no reason.
As night fell, the sky glittered with little stars.
Near the walls of the Li manor.
Shen Ning stood by a small door, anxiously peering inside, her face filled with worry and heartache.
“Mommy, Ding Ding is so pitiful. That wicked witch ignores him and even hits him. She scalded him with boiling water. I don’t know how he managed to grow up like this.”
“Ding Ding is introverted and doesn’t talk much. Their home is so cold, only his grandmother is nice to him.”
“Mommy, Ding Ding isn’t sick; he just doesn’t want to talk. But Daddy wants to treat him.”
Coco’s words echoed in her ears.
She felt so heartbroken that she couldn’t breathe.
It turned out that the last child born six years ago hadn’t died but had been stolen through some scheme. She didn’t know the details, but she understood one thing: Ding Ding must be her child. Otherwise, there was no way he could look exactly like Coco.
Even children understood such matters, so how could she not?
Initially, she was excited because she had gained another son.
But the subsequent heartache left her in agony.
Her son had grown up by the side of that malicious woman. How could such a little child have survived?
Throughout the afternoon, she had been shedding tears continuously.
What made her even more sorrowful was that Ding Ding had lived by her side for many days, and she hadn’t noticed it because she was busy with work.
She had even scolded him for playing with his phone too much.
She felt guilty and wished she could fly to Ding Ding’s side, hug him tightly, and give him plenty of kisses..
