Xu Wan turned to look at the inflatable castle. At that moment, Tang Lu was holding Xiao Jinqi as they slid down the inflatable slide, and the little girl was laughing very happily.
Seeing that the two of them were having so much fun, Xu Wan felt relieved and headed towards the coffee shop.
She walked over and sat down opposite the pregnant woman, saying directly, "You must be Jinqi's mother?"
The pregnant woman wasn't surprised that Xu Wan guessed her identity. She lowered her head and sniffed softly, "I'm sorry, I was forced to do that just now."
"Jinqi is very pitiful."
Despite her young age, Xu Wan, a lawyer, had long since learned to remain composed in front of others.
The biological mother in front of her was a stranger to her, and she didn't show much emotion.
Jinqi's mother looked up at Xu Wan and asked, "May I ask why Jinqi is with you?"
"I am a lawyer……"
Xu Wan briefly recounted how she was kidnapped by Jinqi's father a few days ago while providing free legal aid in Jinqi Village. She concluded, "It can be said that little Jinqi saved me, which is why I took her with me. She was severely malnourished, and my husband and I found a professional doctor to help her recover."
Upon hearing this, Jinqi's mother lowered her head and wiped away her tears. "Thank you, thank you so much."
"No need to thank me. As I said, it was Xiao Jinqi who saved me, and I'm willing to do these things for her."
Xu Wan looked at Jinqi's mother, not wanting to waste time on pointless conversation, and went straight to the point, "Are you really unwilling to acknowledge little Jinqi?"
It is said that blood is thicker than water.
Xu Wan thought Jinqi's mother would hesitate.
But the next second, Jinqi's mother firmly said three words: "I'm sorry."
"..."
Xu Wan really didn't expect her to be so resolute.
Jinqi's mother continued, "When I got into trouble, I was a Chinese literature student at Beicheng University. I had been accepted into a prestigious university abroad and should have had a bright future, but I was kidnapped by human traffickers during my graduation trip and sold to Liu Liqiang. He raped me, locked me in the basement, and forced me to have his child. I had no choice but to obey him. Later, he lowered his guard, and I finally found a chance to escape!"
Jinqi's mother was a woman who appeared to be very gentle.
But as she said these words, her eyes burned with intense hatred.
Xu Wan understood her.
If it were me, I would hate Jinqi's father too.
“After I escaped back, I went abroad to study for a year as a graduate student and came back pretending to have completed my studies. No one knows about my dirty past, and I don’t want to bring it up again.” Jinqi’s mother looked at Xu Wan calmly. “If I acknowledge Jinqi, I will have to explain that past to my husband and other people, and my parents will also be hurt. You can call me cold-blooded, but I’m sorry.”
Although Xu Wan is pregnant, she has never truly been a mother.
Surprisingly, she didn't feel much resentment towards Jinqi's mother.
It's more about understanding.
Jinqi's mother took a bank card out of her bag and placed it on the table: "There's 500,000 yuan in here. It's money my parents gave me. If someone is willing to adopt Jinqi, this money can go to that person."
Xu Wan looked at the bank card for a few seconds before finally saying, "Could you leave me your contact information? Don't worry, it's not about you recognizing Xiao Jinqi. It's about Jinqi's father being detained and needing evidence for sentencing. You are the best witness. If you can come forward and identify what he did, he can get a heavier sentence."
