The guests were quickly ready, and during the awards ceremony, the host passionately explained the various awards.

One winner after another took to the stage, gloriously receiving national-level awards in the competition, which was no exaggeration to say that they brought honor to their ancestors.

Lan Yiren sat alone in the front row of the guest seats, a wicked sneer curving her crimson lips. The smile was arrogant, yet also exuded a confident and ostentatious air of certain victory.

Once she wins the award, she will take the opportunity to do so in front of a national audience at the awards ceremony.

It has been officially announced that Lan Yanyan's household registration will be transferred to her name, at which point she will be Lan Yanyan's mother in the legal sense!

Once they move in, it will be even more difficult for Gu Momo to take Lan Yanyan away!

Just then, the host's passionate voice rang out from the stage, "Dear audience! Thank you for waiting. The next award we are about to present is the 'Most Touching Mother in the Empire' Award! This award belongs exclusively to the most resilient and greatest mothers, and it is also the most prestigious award in the entire ceremony!"

"I hereby officially announce that the recipient of the 'Most Touching Mother in the Empire' Award is—Miss Lan Yiren!"

The audience erupted in cheers, and the stage lights shone on Lan Yiren.

Lan Yiren put her hand to her mouth, deliberately feigning surprise, before gracefully lifting her long dress and walking onto the stage. "Thank you, thank you everyone, receiving this award is truly a surprise to me..."

Because it was a major national awards ceremony, it was broadcast live, and the screen was flooded with comments!

"Lan Yiren truly deserves this award!"

“That’s right! We can all see how much she loves Yanyan, and she has single-handedly helped so many orphans find their parents. She is like a second mother to those children!”

"Our Yiren is so amazing! We will always love you, Yiren!"

Countless cameras were pointed at Lan Yiren, and under the spotlight, Lan Yiren was as radiant as could be!

With tears in her eyes, she gripped the microphone tightly and said, her voice choked with sobs, "I should be most grateful to my precious daughter, Yanyan. She taught me how to love. And today, I want to officially announce that Yanyan will soon be transferring her household registration to me..."

Just then, a clear, crisp voice, as if piercing through the void, came from the direction of the main entrance:

"The thief who stole my own daughter actually won the Best Mother Award? I think it's more appropriate to give Ms. Lan the National Best Theft Award!"

Everyone turned their heads in shock to see Gu Momo walking towards them, dressed in a simple, light gauze dress.

A half-mask covered her perfect, stunning beauty, but the powerful, cold, and arrogant aura she exuded drew all eyes to her, as if she had instantly become the supreme master of the scene!

The entire venue erupted in cheers! Wait a minute!

Isn't that the award-winning producer, Ms. Yueying? What did she just say?

Child abduction?!

In the VIP section not far away, Li Zhanting seemed to have heard Gu Momo's voice as well. His tightly furrowed brows furrowed slightly, and he subconsciously looked up and locked his gaze on Gu Momo. His hawk-like eyes radiated an aggressive light like a wild wolf.

Is that voice altered? Why does it sound so familiar?

The man's sinister eyes were fixed on Gu Momo, as if he wanted to see right through her.

On stage, Lan Yiren's deep black eyes shone with a chilling light. When she saw Gu Momo walking over, she was not flustered at all; instead, her eyes even showed excitement and exhilaration!

Gu Momo, you've finally arrived!

The sinister glint in her eyes was well concealed, and she deliberately smiled in a fake manner, "Miss Yueying, you should be careful what you say. If you don't have evidence, netizens all over the country probably won't let you off the hook, and you might even go to jail for defamation."

Gu Momo stood tall and proud under the spotlight, her gaze haughtily meeting Lan Yiren's eyes:

"You're so confidently waiting for me to come because you're sure I can't produce any evidence?"

"But what a pity, I have... the most skilled data restoration specialists in the country, even the world, under my command!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she clapped her hands, and all the lights in the room went out instantly!

Immediately afterwards, the screen in front of the stage lit up, and a series of images suddenly appeared on the screen.

On the screen, in a hospital, Lan Yiren, wearing high heels, walked arrogantly into a ward and pointed directly at Gu Momo, who was sleeping unconscious on the hospital bed.

However, due to the angle, the camera did not capture Gu Momo's face.

"Give me the child in this woman's arms. Remember! I only want a daughter! You can give the boy to whomever you want! But the daughter in her arms must be mine! No... from this moment on, the child this woman gives birth to is mine!"

On the scene, Lan Yiren was so horrified when she saw the image on the screen that she turned pale and wished she could tear the image off the screen!

How is that possible?!

She should have destroyed all this evidence and video footage back then, so why is it suddenly appearing here?!

The audience in the venue and the live stream were in an uproar: "Damn... it really is Lan Yiren!"

"Isn't that dress Lan Yiren is wearing in the video sponsored by a famous sponsor five years ago? There's only one of its kind in the whole country, it's definitely Lan Yiren!"

"What's going on? A renowned actress actually went to this remote mountain village to snatch someone's child? What is she wearing? And is the child she snatched Lan Yanyan?"

The murmurs of the crowd grew louder and louder, but then the image on the big screen suddenly changed again.

The camera in the video was clearly in a hospital corridor. In the footage, Lan Yiren is seen holding a baby with an air of superiority, while her bodyguards are handing out bonuses to groups of medical staff.

The Lan Yiren in the video is not the kind and approachable person the audience is familiar with, but rather a ruthless and vicious woman:

"You can sell the babies in the hospital however you want. No matter where they end up, as long as you remember the location, I can buy them back! What I want is fame and fortune, and if each of you keeps quiet, you will not only become heroes in the eyes of countless people like me, but you will also each receive five million, enough to live comfortably for the rest of your lives!"

Lan Yiren's eyes widened fiercely as she saw the image on the screen, and she couldn't help but shout:

"Where are the staff? Don't you know to turn off the screen? This is a live broadcast! You're letting this crazy woman cause such a ruckus here. Do you know this is a live broadcast accident?! It's a major mistake on your part!"

The staff member said hurriedly, "No, we want to close it too..."

However, the entire live streaming system was locked by hackers, and it couldn't be turned off at all!
