Wang Xiaocui breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that your family doesn't know.

Since her family doesn't know, she should still be able to go back.

But those girls were in a terrible situation.

They've lost their virginity and dare not go back.

Even though they were scammed, the villagers won't care; they'll definitely accuse them of being unclean.

Not only will I be scolded to death, but my family will also be implicated.

She might even be unable to get married.

So they dared not go back.

I just want to stay here.

The police suggested that they find a legitimate job here first.

Once things are settled, we can make decisions about the future later.

First, you need to find a job to support yourself.

These girls do want to.

But they had never been to foreign countries or attended school for many years. When they were young, all they did was help with chores at home, and they were afraid that others would not want them.

Sheng Yueqing arrived at this moment.

She could help these girls find jobs.

But they must guarantee that they can endure hardship.

Instead of trying to take shortcuts when things are too hard.

The girls lowered their heads in shame.

"We were scammed."

They only realized they had been scammed much later.

I haven't earned a single penny since I started out; it's pure bastard.

But it's also true that she wants to marry a boss and become his wife.

It's normal to get scammed when your thinking is too simplistic.

Now that I've come to my senses, I know I was wrong.

Going back to their hometown is impossible. If they go back, and people find out they were trafficked and lost their virginity, they will be driven out of the village, and they will never be able to go back again.

It's better to make a name for yourself here before going back.

Sheng Yueqing was relieved that they hadn't acted like they were going to die and were still willing to work, which was a good thing.

So I found them some handicraft work.

You work in the factory, with room and board provided, but the wages aren't that high.

However, they are already very satisfied.

I called home after I received my salary the following month to say that I had changed jobs and was now working in a handicraft factory in Shanghai.

The family was naturally happy to hear this.

I never expected what they went through.

However, we should keep it a secret as long as we can, so that they can save some money and give us more options for survival.

Wang Xiaocui also stayed.

She was quick and efficient, and went to work in the cafeteria.

Although it's tiring, at least I don't have to work day and night. I only cook three meals a day and can rest at night.

The salary is decent.

And the meals are free.

She is already very content.

Just as she was about to call back, she discovered she was pregnant.

This time she really cried.

She had already given birth to three daughters but hadn't conceived again, so she thought she couldn't have any more children.

I never expected to get pregnant after just one trip.

She wanted to abort the child, but was afraid of being found out.

I didn't dare tell my friends, afraid that my family would find out, so I could only go to the clinic secretly.

The doctor at the clinic told her, "Your baby is already quite big. If you have an abortion at this point, you may experience severe bleeding. I suggest you give birth to the baby."

Wang Xiaocui dared not give birth.

If her family finds out, she's finished.

Her husband will definitely divorce her.

She doesn't want a divorce; it would be too embarrassing.

Moreover, her family would definitely be angry if she got divorced, since her husband could still earn money to help her younger brother buy a house.

But the doctor said that if the pregnancy is too far along, there will be heavy bleeding and the patient may not be able to have children in the future.

In addition, the doctor said that this baby might be a boy.

She wavered for a moment and decided to give birth.

However, she dared not let anyone know, so she went to find Sheng Yueqing.

He said matter-of-factly, "Girl, you're so rich, find me a house so I can have my baby?"

"If it's a son, I'll give him to you to raise, so he can take care of you in your old age and see you off when you die."

“If you don’t help me, I will kneel here forever.”

Sheng Yueqing....

To be honest, Wang Xiaocui is really not a very likable person.

She had no obligation to help her find a job or settle down.

They all helped her out of consideration for being from the same hometown.

Who knew she could be so nonchalant?

Sheng Yueqing scoffed, "It's already an immense favor that I was able to help you find that good job."

"Go find whoever got you pregnant. I don't owe you anything."

"And since you're the one who has the child, you naturally have to take responsibility for it yourself."

It doesn't make sense for a stranger to be responsible for your child.

They're not being taken advantage of.

Wang Xiaocui retorted, "Of course this has something to do with you. It was all your sister Sheng Jinjin who tricked me into this situation. Otherwise, would I have ended up like this?"

“You’re her older sister, so you have a responsibility to help me.”

This self-righteous demeanor made Sheng Yueqing frown.

"Sheng Jinjin and I aren't even on the same household registration. Are you trying to extort me?"

"What a huge joke."

"Whether you have this child or not is none of my business."

"If you're going to look for someone, look for Sheng Jinjin. Since she's the one who caused this, make her take full responsibility."

"If you make me unhappy again, you can forget about your job."

It's truly a case of good intentions being met with moral blackmail.

She could accept not introducing Wang Xiaocui to a job.

It's rare to find someone so kind, yet they still encounter such an ungrateful wretch.

Wang Xiaocui gritted her teeth and turned the tables, saying, "You're just like Sheng Jinjin, a ruthless and unscrupulous businessman."

"I will not let you get away with this."

After saying that, he glared at Sheng Yueqing and left.

Sheng Yueqing never expected that after so many years of success, she would still encounter such an ungrateful person.

He Yushen was furious when he found out.

"Who does she think she is, daring to talk back to you like that?"

"I'm going to settle accounts with her."

They kindly helped her find a job and used their connections to get her rescued.
