Zhang Yuanyuan went all out, charging towards Xu Momo, trying to tear her to pieces. But as before, before she could even get close, Xiao Anhe not only stopped her but also picked Xu Momo up in his arms.

In such a simple act of a man embracing a woman, Zhang Yuanyuan felt the meaning of four words: "deeply ingrained affection"!

She was jealous, she envied, she resentful.

Why should someone like Xu Mo, who grew up in an orphanage, be able to obtain all of this so easily?

And what about her?

After all these years of hard work, even going so far as to undergo thousands of surgeries on her face to please the vice president, what did she get in return?

It was discarded casually, like trash.

Is blood relation really that important?

Her eyes were bloodshot as she glared fiercely at Xu Moran. "You bitch, what right do you have to reap the benefits without so much? Let me tell you, I will make you pay for all the suffering I've endured."

As he spoke, he lunged directly at Xu Moran.

It's clear that she wants to take Xu Moban to the extreme together.

There's a saying that fits her perfectly at this moment: ideals are lofty, but reality is cruel. Her hand didn't even touch the hem of Xu Mo's clothes before it was blocked by another strong hand.

The hand was so beautiful that Zhang Yuanyuan was momentarily stunned when she saw it.

She quickly recovered from her daze and turned to walk towards the door.

Just when everyone present thought she couldn't stay any longer and was about to leave, she suddenly turned around, and there was a dagger in her hand.

I don't know where she got this dagger from, but the tip is definitely gleaming.

Even if Xiao Anhe were here, or even if only Fu or Xu Xiusen were here, Xu Moben would not allow anyone to harm him in the slightest.

The scene was chaotic for less than five minutes before it quickly quieted down.

Zhang Yuanyuan did manage to stab with her dagger, but instead of Xu Mo, whom she intended to stab, she stabbed her own grandmother in the chest.

Crimson blood gushed from the chest of the former director of the B City orphanage like a fountain.

Zhang Yuanyuan was terrified. She collapsed to the ground, trembling uncontrollably. She had killed someone. She really had killed someone, but not the one she most wanted to kill.

Xiao Anhe calmly took out his phone and dialed the police and emergency center, then squatted down next to the orphanage director to take a look.

The dagger struck a vital spot, beyond cure. Xiao Anhe pursed his lips and said nothing.

The orphanage director seemed to know he didn't have long to live. He looked at Zhang Yuanyuan deeply, his eyes filled with reluctance. Then he shifted his gaze to the deputy director and said haltingly, "Deputy director, I beg you. Although Yuanyuan is not your biological granddaughter, you raised her yourself. Please don't blame her. I hope that you can treat Yuanyuan well, considering that I also raised Xu Mo."

His lips remained tightly closed, and he didn't utter a single word, neither agreeing nor refusing her.

If it weren't for the fact that she was really on her deathbed, the vice president would have revealed what he had just learned about Xu Moran's orphanage experiences and questioned her about it.

If keeping Xu Moran, who hadn't made any mistakes, locked up in the storage room every now and then could be considered raising him, then for all these years, she had completely raised Zhang Yuanyuan as a princess.

We are all human beings, and we all have hearts made of flesh, so why is there such a big difference?

The deputy's silence chilled the orphanage director to the bone. She had forgotten the pain in her body and looked at the deputy with tears streaming down her face, hoping that the deputy would take pity on her, a person who was about to die, and not hold Zhang Yuanyuan's actions against her.

The vice president felt pity for Zhang Yuanyuan and thought that she had indeed raised Zhang Yuanyuan herself, so she still had feelings for her and wanted to give Zhang Yuanyuan one last chance. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yuanyuan, who was lying on the ground, suddenly stood up and rushed towards Xu Momo.

He's hopeless!

Looking at Zhang Yuanyuan, who was subdued by the police who arrived in time, the deputy's eyes no longer held any pity or affection.

“It’s not that I don’t want her anymore, but what she’s done,” the deputy director said softly, looking at the orphanage director. “Do you think I can still keep her?”

The orphanage director was too weak to speak. After exhaling forcefully, she finally stopped breathing.

She died; she was killed by her own granddaughter.

The police and ambulance arrived. After confirming that the orphanage director was dead, they contacted the funeral home.

Everything returned to true silence. Xu Mo remained silent, hoping that by not speaking, she could reduce her presence as she had done in the past. This time, however, things were destined to go against her wishes.

No matter how much she lowered her stance, it couldn't stop her from being the female protagonist of this story. The deputy hugged her tightly, tears streaming down his face before he could even utter a sound.

Xu Moran was so frightened that she didn't dare to move. What was going on? Why was the vice president holding her and crying like this?

The cool liquid fell onto her skin, and for some reason, her eyes also started to sting.

Xu Xiusen interjected at the opportune moment, "Mo Mo, this is your maternal grandmother. Hurry up and call her Grandma."

grandmother?

This was the first time in Xu Mo's life that someone had asked her to say those two words, and she was taken aback, followed by a feeling of unease.

The vice-grandmother took her hand, gently patted the back of her hand, and said with a face full of apology, "Mo Mo, it's all Grandma's fault. Over the years, I've made you suffer so much. Don't worry, Grandma will make it up to you. Grandma will give you everything that is best!"

The deputy spoke with such certainty, but to Xu Momo, it was terrifying. She felt a sense of déjà vu, like Cinderella transforming into a princess.

She felt very uncomfortable with this feeling and began to wonder if she was dreaming.
