Yu Anning laughed self-deprecatingly and said forlornly, "It's nothing. Qiqi has always been closer to Li Wensong. It's also my fault for neglecting her in the past. I was only focused on my career and missed Qiqi's growth. It's not her fault that she's not close to me."

That's what she said, but Yu Anning felt as if her heart was being torn apart, even more painful than a stomach ache. Her daughter, whom she had gone through so much to give birth to, was called a heartless, cold-blooded animal by that treacherous Li Wensong, who said he would never forgive her.

Ha... The purpose of her hard work was to prevent her daughter from repeating her past. If her family had been better off back then, perhaps Qi Wenyuan's mother wouldn't have said those things to her, she and Qi Wenyuan wouldn't have missed the best years of their youth, and she wouldn't have married that scumbag Li Wensong.

Yu Anning only wants her daughter to be able to love the man she likes without any worries when she grows up, without having to worry about social status or whether the man's parents will make things difficult for her because of his family background.

Regardless of whether the man is poor or rich, Yu Anning wants her daughter to have the confidence to face the situation and be able to have a relationship that is not affected by external factors.

Yu Anning didn't want her daughter to have the same regrets, which is why she worked so hard. But her daughter didn't understand her good intentions and only complained that she didn't spend time with her and that she only cared about work.

However, work and time are always directly proportional!

To gain wealth and status, you must put in the time to work hard. There are no free lunches in this world, unless they are thrown down by a landlord.

Ye Qingqing sensed Yu Anning's loneliness and sadness, and could roughly guess what was going on. Not all children these days have a conscience; there are plenty of heartless ingrates.

"Take care of yourself first. Qiqi is still young. She'll understand you when she's older."

"Yes, I've come to terms with it. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Besides, although Li Wensong is a jerk, he's still good to my daughter. It's fine for Qiqi to be with them."

Yu Anning tried to comfort herself, but her heart was filled with bitterness. However, she had to keep going, and her immediate priority was to get better. As for the rest, she didn't have the energy to worry about it now.

“I’ve already spoken with Attorney Guo. We don’t want the daughter, we just want the property. The court hearing is next week, and the verdict should be delivered soon.” Yu Anning sighed softly, her heart filled with even more bitterness.

She could guess that after learning of the verdict, Qiqi would definitely say that she was selfish and took all the money, leaving no property for her father. Now, under the instigation of the Li family, Qiqi already regarded her as her father's killer, and her words were more vicious than stabbing.

But she still wanted to fight for the inheritance, not for herself, but for Qiqi.

Li Wensong has a law firm, so he certainly won't have any problems making a living. Moreover, Li Wensong's parents have high retirement pensions, so they don't need Li Wensong to support them in their old age. They can even help their son financially, so Qiqi's quality of life in the Li family will definitely not be lowered.

If these assets remain with the Li family, they will eventually go to Li Wensong's son. If she takes them, they will still belong to her daughter. Even if Yu Anning remarries, she can't have any more children. She only has one daughter, so who else can she leave the assets to if not her daughter?

Unfortunately, Qiqi couldn't understand Yu Anning's good intentions. Instigated by the Li family, she would pick fights with Yu Anning every few days. The bond between mother and daughter grew weaker and weaker with each of her ignorant and outrageous remarks.
