Chapter 23: How Could You Call That Woman Your Mother?

 

Zhuang Nai Nai was stunned, “W-What?”

Li Yu Feng explained everything to her, “I am your real mother.  After I gave birth to you, this woman kidnapped you from the hospital.  Your father and I have been looking for you for the past 20 years.”

Zhuang Nai Nai was thunderstruck.  Never had she expected that the woman she called ‘mother’ for so many years had no blood-ties to her.

She felt empty as she stood frozen.

Gu De Shou frowned while Li Yu Feng simply sighed.  She stepped forward, hesitating for a moment, before patting Nai Nai in the shoulder.  “My child, it has been hard on you.”

Zhuang Nai Nai stared at Li Yu Feng in a daze.

And then, she turned around to look at her mother who was hiding behind her.

How could this be?

She had thought up all kinds of possibilities for not having a father, but never once had she suspected her mother.

“No, I don’t believe you…..”  She shook her head.  There was no way for her to accept this.

Li Yu Feng frowned, clearly really unhappy.  She nodded at her secretary whom in turn, handed a phone to Zhuang Nai Nai.  Li Yu Feng’s voice was really calm, “This was the CCTV recording from the hospital, 20 years ago.”

Zhuang Nai Nai looked at it.  Although the quality of the recording was not very good, she could see her mother sneaking into Li Yu Feng’s maternity ward before running out with a child.

It was an undisputed evidence.

Zhuang Nai Nai’s entire world suddenly turned upside down.  Her legs gave way a little as she struggled to stand.

Her mother suddenly held her hand tight, “What is wrong, Nai Nai?  Did somebody bullied you?”

Seeing her mother, tears suddenly rolled from Zhuang Nai Nai’s eyes.

Although her mother was ill, she was still very clean.  Unfortunately, the toils of life made her look at least 10 years older than Li Yu Feng.

Whenever she fell sick when she was young, her mother would stood by her side, gently taking care of her.  Although her mother was sick and had asthma herself, she built this household with her own thin hands.

How could this kind of mother become a villain who kidnapped other people’s child?

Her clueless mother hugged her by the shoulder and patted her in the back, “Don’t cry, Nai Nai.  Mommy will buy you candy.”

It was at this moment that Zhuang Nai Nai realized that she didn’t resemble her mother at all.  In fact, she looked more like Li Yu Feng and Gu De Shou combined together.

Her heart turned bitter.  She didn’t know what to do.  She could only hug her mother back.

The look on Li Yu Feng’s eyes changed when she saw them hugging each other.  She angrily bellowed at them, “That woman stole my daughter from me for 20 years.  She made you go through such a hard life!  I will call the police and sue her!  I want her to pay for this!”

“No!” Zhuang Nai Nai unconsciously said.  “You cannot do that!”

Her mother was very sick and could not remember anything right now, she did not want her mother to lead an even harder life.

Besides, her mother treated her so well.  She could be considered lucky for being raised by someone like that.  How could she bear to see her going into jail?

When she heard that, Li Yu Feng frowned, looking at Zhuang Nai Nai as though she could not understand her, “How could you call that woman your mother?  That kidnapper!”
