Concerned that Director Wang would be worried, Li An’an called her. “Director
Wang, I’ve got the jade pendant. Song Li stole it.”
“This muddle-headed woman.” Director Wang cursed. Song Li had been working in the orphanage for many years. She did not expect her to do such a thing.
“I’ll punish her. An’an, where are you staying now? I’d like to co and see you.”
Li An’an told her the address, as she was keen to see Director Wang as well. Then, she coaxed the children to sleep.
The doorbell rang and she went to open the door. Director Wang was standing there anxiously. “An’an, it’s really you. It’s great to see that you’re fine.” Director Wang was so excited that she was incoherent.
Li An’an’s eyes reddened as she invited Director Wang into the house.
“Oh, who is this child?”
Li Baobao had fallen asleep on the sofa when she saw that Li An’an was still awake and not going to bed. The child fell asleep on the sofa with her tiny body curled up into a ball, her face was flushed and she looked extrely adorable.
“This is my daughter.”
“An’an, you’re married?” Director Wang was surprised. An’an had disappeared for five years. When she first heard that the girl was still alive, she thought that LI An’an must have suffered much, since she had not contacted her for so many years. Now, she was relieved. Li An’an was married and had a family.
“What exactly happened back then? What did the Li family do to you?” Director Wang blad herself for not having protected the child well.
Li An’an recounted in detail what the Li family had done. At the end, she extended her hand to show the scars that were still visible. They were from the hard work she had to do during her childhood.
At that ti, she was grateful to the Li family, and felt that she should be. She wasn’t mindful of the fact that she was just an eight-year-old child.
Director Wang’s heart ached so much that she cried. “These scumbags look like human beings but are demons on the inside. An’an, I didn’t protect you well.
I’ve let you down.”
Li An’an consoled her. “It’s no fault of yours. The two of them were so good at pretending. Who would have thought that they are such people underneath their appearance? Besides, I didn’t ntion it to you back then, so it’s not your fault. If you had known, I’m sure you’d have brought back to the orphanage. ”
All these years, she had never blad Director Wang.
“What about these children?”
Li An’an lowered her head and recounted in embarrassnt what happened five years ago.
Director Wang burst into tears. “These two beasts are worse than animals. I’ll settle the score with them.”
Li An’an hurriedly stopped her. “Don’t be rash, Director. These things are history. The most important thing now is to find out why Liu Luhua is looking for the jade pendant. Don’t worry, I’ll expose their hypocrisy. I won’t let them
have an easy ti.”
Director Wang sighed. “That’s the only way. I’m useless and can’t help you much.”
Since Liu Luhua and her husband had been pretending for so many years, they wouldn’t be exposed so easily. If she were to confront them, they may even push the bla on her and it would in turn affect the social support that the orphanage was receiving..
“Mommy, who is this grandma?” Li Baobao rubbed her eyes as she woke up.
“This is Grandma Wang. She used to take good care of Mommy.”
“How do you do, Grandma Wang,” Li Baobao said adorably.
The sad expression on Director Wang’s face gave way to a look of loving kindness, “Hello, Baobao. You really look like your mother. Let Grandma carry you, okay?”
Li Baobao nodded, still half-asleep. Director Wang pulled the child into her arms . Baobao circled her arms around Director Wang’s neck and continued to sleep soundly.
Director Wang looked pleased. “This child is really adorable. How old is she?
Are you able to handle the children and work at the sa ti?”
“She’s just over four. I hired a nanny. She has two older brothers, they are triplets. ”
Director Wang was pleasantly surprised. Li Jùnjùn and Junjun walked out of the small room in their pajamas when they heard the talking outside.
“Mommy.”
“Mommy.”
“These are your children, too.” Director Wang’s heart ached when he saw that. The two children were very beautiful, which surprised her, but at the sa ti, she thought of how hard it would have been for An’an.
Li An’an held the children’s hands and led them to Director Wang. “Greet Grandma. This is the Grandma who doted on Mommy very much when I was a child. ”
“Hello, Grandma,” the two children greeted in unison.
Director Wang held the two children in her arms and got them to sit on her lap. As she looked at them, their cuteness grew on her.
“It’s a pity that I didn’t bring a eting gift this ti. I’ll bring one for you next ti, okay? Do you like pencil cases?”
Junjun and Jùnjùn nodded. Thank you, Grandma Wang. We like them very much.
Looking embarrassed, Director Wang smiled and said, “There are many children in the orphanage. This is the only gift I can give.”
Director Wang and Li An’an chatted for a long ti. Seeing that it was getting late, they bade each other farewell.
“An’an bring the children to the orphanage for a fun visit when you have ti.”
“Okay, Director Wang. Goodbye.”
Li An’an stood by the window and watched Director Wang leave.
“Mommy, I like Grandma Wang.” Junjun and Jünjbn said in unison.
Li An’an stroked their heads. “I like her too. Mommy loved her the most when I was a child.”
Li family residence.
Having returned from his social engagent, Li Chong looked for Liu Luhua.
“Sir, Madam is unwell. She went to bed as soon as she ca ho.”
The servant hurriedly went to get a doctor.
Li Chong’s mind was preoccupied as he pushed open the door heavily and went up to Liu Luhua. “Where’s the jade pendant? Did you get it? The Si family has been asking. Even if we wish to keep them in suspense, we have to have real evidence. Only then can the company secure the working capital.”
Previously, Li Chong had taken Li An’an in because he wanted a dostic helper for his daughter, and this was a way of getting free labor. At that ti,
Li An’an had perford the best among all the orphans, so he had chosen her. Moreover, she was especially beautiful and that might co in useful in the future.
Reality proved Li An’an to be rather valuable. It was a pity that when he gave her to that man with surna Cao, the man had died without having the opportunity to enjoy her. Eventually, they had only managed to obtain so gold and silver jewelry and nothing else. It was really unlucky. After that, they received shocking news that Li An’an was most likely the lost daughter of the Si family.
All these years, he had been feeling regretful. If they had investigated further, Li An’an would have been of even greater value.
Liu Luhua grabbed Li Chong’s hand. “Freaking hell, Hubby, I saw Li An’an today. She snatched the jade pendant away.”
Li Chong’s expression turned icy. “The jade pendant was taken away by Li
An’an? Are you lying to ? That wretched girl has been dead for five years. Could she have crawled out of her grave?”
Liu Luhua covered her head and said, “Although I only took a quick look, I’m sure it’s her. She had three children with her!”
Li Chong was bewildered. “How is that possible? She brought three children to snatch your jade pendant? Are you crazy from sleeping too much? Think about it. How would she know about the Si family? No one would have told her. How did you lose the jade pendant? I told you to be careful. Why didn’t you take heed?” Li Chong blad Liu Luhua.
Liu Luhua was infuriated. “Are you saying I’m careless? Why don’t you ask so other woman to do it for you then? I’ve been supporting you with all the planning and scheming for so many years, and now you’re despising ? If you’re so capable, go do it yourself!”
“Hmph, you can’t do anything right, and simply ruin everything.” Li Chong slamd the door and left.
He had allowed her to hold this position for so many years, for the sake of his daughter and her capability. In the end, she had made a ss of such a big matter. She really needed to be taught a lesson.
“You’d better get the jade pendant back. Otherwise, I’ll really give you a kick. Also, don’t think about threatening with the jade pendant because it’s useless. If you get caught, just watch how I’ll deal with you.”
“You bastard.” Liu Luhua started smashing things up in her room. She wasn’t going to give up her position. She had it so good at ho now. There was no way she’d allow another woman to take her place..
