No telling when she might explode!

No one would dare touch her on Taiwan Island, but this was Beijing, and she was restricted from traveling!

Realizing this, Jiu Wentang rushed downstairs, “Xiaoqi, Mom is begging you, please take me away! Shall we go back to Taiwan Island?”

Liu Qi sighed, “Mom, you can’t leave now.”

“Think of something, Xiaoqi, think of something,” Jiu Wentang continued, “Since you managed to bail us out of the Detention Center, it means you must have a way, right?”

Liu Qi frowned slightly, suppressing the anger in his heart, “Mom, the only reason you were released from the Detention Center was because of Dad! Dad took all the blame on himself! Otherwise, even if I were the Emperor of Heaven, I wouldn’t have been able to bail out you and Xiaoru!”

Jiu Wentang’s eyes instantly reddened, “Then what should we do? Xiaoqi, is there really no way? Xiaoqi, I really can’t stay here anymore!”

“Mom, why are you in such a hurry to leave Beijing?” Liu Qi grabbed Jiu Wentang’s arm. “Are you still hiding something from me?”

How much more were they hiding from him!

Jiu Wentang instinctively avoided Liu Qi’s gaze, “No.”

“Really?” Liu Qi stared intently into Jiu Wentang’s eyes.

“No!” Jiu Wentang pushed Liu Qi away and hurried upstairs.

Watching Jiu Wentang’s retreating figure, Liu Qi let out a deep sigh and went to Liu Ru’s room.

“Brother.”

Liu Qi grabbed Liu Ru’s hand, “Tell me honestly, are you and Mom still hiding something from me?”

After all, Jiu Wentang was his mother, and there were some things he couldn’t directly ask her, so he had to start with Liu Ru.

In Liu Qi’s eyes, Liu Ru and Jiu Wentang were in this together.

Liu Ru looked at Liu Qi blankly, “No…”

“Stop pretending! Tell me!” Liu Qi had lost all trust in Liu Ru. “Tell me now, and I’ll take you and Mom to the police station to turn ourselves in, maybe we’ll get a lighter sentence. Just don’t let the police find out first, it would be embarrassing then!”

“Really, there’s nothing!” Liu Ru, frightened by Liu Qi’s demeanor, started crying, “Brother, what are you talking about?”

Liu Ru had no idea about Jiu Wentang’s past.

The recent stint in the Detention Center had already terrified Liu Ru, smoothing out any haughty airs she once had.

“Speak!” Liu Qi gripped Liu Ru’s wrist tightly.

“There’s nothing…” Liu Ru cried miserably.

Unable to get anything out of her, Liu Qi had to let it go.

At the Ni Family home, Ni Yang administered the third acupuncture treatment to Ni Cuihua.

After the acupuncture, Ni Cuihua said to Old Lady Zheng, “Mom, does Dad have a burn scar on his back?”

Old Lady Zheng was taken aback at first, then said, “Yes, it was caused by your grandmother accidentally scalding him with boiling water…”

Ni Cuihua’s face changed, realizing that everything that happened in her dream was true.

“Mom!” Ni Cuihua suddenly grabbed Old Lady Zheng’s hand, her eyes becoming red, “I remember! I remember everything!”

“Tingting, what do you remember?” Old Lady Zheng said nervously, “Don’t rush, take it slow.”

With a choked voice, Ni Cuihua said, “I was sent to Xiaomu Village, and the person who sent me was Jiu Wentang…”

Here’s how it happened:
After getting separated from Old Lady Zheng years ago, young Ni Cuihua was picked up by a local old woman who, seeing the child’s refined manner, decided to hand her over to the Village Chief. After several transfers, the Village Chief took her to Beijing.

Upon arriving in Beijing, a beautifully dressed young woman appeared, claiming to know Old Lady Zheng and Zheng Jun, saying they were good friends, and so the Village Chief handed Ni Cuihua over to her.

As soon as the Village Chief left, the young woman showed her true colors. Ni Cuihua bit her while attempting to escape, and, furious, the young woman picked up a nearby vase and knocked Ni Cuihua unconscious.

The cerebral contusion suffered by Ni Cuihua dated from that time. Because she wasn’t sent to the hospital in time, she developed a persisting high fever that night, terrifying the young woman. She took a night train and delivered Ni Cuihua to a rural family in Xiaomu Village, miles away, along with some money.

When Ni Cuihua woke up, she had no memory of her past.

“I remember, she had a sister, who called her Azhi!” Ni Cuihua said.
