Fortunately, I went back secretly once. Otherwise, I don’t know how to make up for it.

I still remember that I had a quarrel with my current husband. Then Liu Guilan packed her luggage and returned to the small village where Xia Lili lived, ready to go see her child. Although she had no feelings for him, at least he was her own flesh and blood, and she missed him a little after all.

What she didn't expect was that, without meeting the person, she found out something amazing: this little girl turned out to be the top scorer in the high school entrance examination.

Liu Guifang knew her chance had come. She would wait until Xia Lili grew up, then go meet her and have a free meal with her, so that Xia Lili could lead her to a good life.

Although her current husband treats her very well, he is always on guard against her. They have argued many times over this matter. If he hadn't made so much money, she would have kicked him out long ago. Fortunately, he died in a car accident and left her such a large asset.

......

"Oh, really?" Xia Lili smiled bitterly, her nose feeling sore.

"Then do you know that I learned that by staying up late at night and secretly studying?"

Study secretly?

What does this mean?

Liu Guilan looked surprised!

"Are you surprised?" Xia Lili raised her eyebrows. Sol said sadly, "I'm a girl. Wasn't it common in rural areas back then not to allow girls to go to school?"

"But I didn't want to live like this forever, so I came up with a plan. Every time they fell asleep, I would secretly get up and study. Day after day, I finally reaped the rewards and successfully got into the county's No. 1 Middle School with the highest score. You think it's pride, but for me it's relief."

The relief of leaving her family of origin. At least that's what she thought at the time.

Xia Lili raised the corners of her mouth, and she looked like she was smiling, but the smile did not reach her eyes. The sparkling light in her eyes was like a river, making people feel sick and breathless.

She then asked, "Then do you know how I get my tuition?"
