"Are you blind? Can't you see?" Gu Momo replied lazily, then continued feeding Ling'er porridge. "We can talk about anything after the child has eaten."
Gu Shanshan was speechless after being rebuked by her, and angrily hid behind Li Zhanting.
Seeing his daughter eating so well, Li Zhanting couldn't bear to disturb her. He stood still and waited until Gu Momo finished feeding him the last spoonful of porridge before he went over.
"Ling'er, be good, come home with Daddy." Li Zhanting reached out and tried to take his daughter from Gu Momo's arms.
Li Qingling instinctively backed away, her little hands tightly gripping Gu Momo's clothes, shaking her head in resistance, "Daddy, Ling'er doesn't want to go home! Ling'er wants to stay with the pretty auntie!"
Li Zhanting felt a headache coming on. What kind of magic did this woman possess?
It seems we need to find Liuli quickly, otherwise what if Ling'er doesn't recognize Liuli as her mother in the future?
He bent down and coaxed gently, "Ling'er, you don't even want Daddy anymore? Hmm?"
Ling'er pouted proudly: "Ling'er would rather have Mommy than Daddy."
Li Zhanting: "..."
He has lost all his dignity as a father.
Upon hearing this, Gu Shanshan stepped forward and added fuel to the fire, saying, "Sister! I know you don't like me, but I've watched Ling'er grow up since she was little, and Ling'er is my precious darling. Yesterday, when you took her away, she got caught in the rain and had an asthma attack! Do you know you almost killed her! Even though you're my sister, if you dare to hurt Ling'er even a little bit, I'll fight you to the death!"
Gu Momo couldn't help but scoff.
Haha, what a clever frame-up!
If she hadn't happened to run into her yesterday, even if Gu Shanshan had used brute force to bring Ling'er home, Ling'er's asthma wouldn't have been cured without going to the hospital!
Now, she's actually blaming all of this on her?
Before Gu Momo could even retort, Li Qingling, who was standing to the side, became dissatisfied upon hearing Gu Shanshan's slander of the pretty aunt.
Her little face flushed red. "You're lying! The pretty auntie didn't let my asthma attack happen! It's all your fault! The pretty auntie took me home, took good care of me, and sang to lull me to sleep. The pretty auntie is the best person in the world, and I won't allow you to wrong her!"
Li Zhanting was a little jealous; even Ling'er had never defended him like this.
Gu Shanshan acted as if she had suffered a great injustice, "Ling'er, do you know what you're saying? Auntie has watched you grow up since you were little, how can you help outsiders?"
“I like pretty aunties! I want a pretty auntie to be my mom!” Li Qingling said without hesitation.
"Ling'er, be good, don't talk nonsense," Li Zhanting gently reminded her.
Ling'er's mother can only be Liuli.
No matter the cost, he was determined to find Liuli.
Fearing that Li Zhanting would let Gu Momo off the hook, Gu Shanshan quickly added, "Zhanting, no matter what, it's a fact that Gu Momo stole Ling'er..."
Gu Momo found this laughable.
"You keep saying that I took Ling'er away, so why don't you explain to him why I took her away? Hmm?" Gu Momo raised her eyelids, and her seemingly innocuous question made Gu Shanshan's face turn pale instantly.
She stammered as she explained, "What...what's there to say! It's all because you're jealous of me!"
Gu Momo's eyes crinkled into crescents, exuding charm and allure. She calmly asked, "Me, jealous of you? What am I jealous of?"
"You're jealous that I can associate with the Li family, jealous that I'm on good terms with the Li family because of Ling'er! But you don't have such good fortune!"
"Gu Shanshan?" Gu Momo's smile froze instantly, her star-like eyes turning as cold as ice, the icy light shooting straight at her cheek. "Did I give you face?"
Gu Shanshan was stunned for a few seconds, and the expression on her face could no longer be described as ugly.
The reason why the elders of the Li family regard her as their benefactor is because she brought Li Qingling and Li Zixiao to the Li family back then.
Only the elders of the Li family knew about this. In order to protect the two children's young hearts from harm, they never told them that they had been taken in.
It could be said that Gu Shanshan's good fortune was obtained by stealing Gu Momo's child!
Gu Momo picked up her phone from the table, found a video Mo Feng had sent her yesterday, and handed it to Li Zhanting:
"President Li can take this opportunity to properly appreciate what she has done."
Gu Momo didn't broadcast the video on television because she didn't want to cause her daughter further harm.
Li Zhanting narrowed his eyes slightly and took the phone.
After having a daughter, he got used to turning the volume down and pressing play.
In the video, Gu Shanshan is like a madwoman who has lost her mind, frantically dragging Ling'er into the car.
Ling'er's pale face was filled with resistance, her small body trembled, and she coughed painfully.
Li Zhanting felt as if his heart was being strangled by a rope, making it hard to breathe.
Before the video even finished playing, he couldn't bear to watch anymore. He put his hand holding the phone down to his thigh, and looked at Gu Shanshan with a sharp, sword-like gaze. His dark eyes, as black as lacquer, revealed a chilling killing intent.
Although Gu Shanshan didn't know what the video contained, seeing Li Zhanting's angry expression, she guessed that it must be related to what happened yesterday.
She quickly stepped forward, grabbed the cuff of his suit jacket, and pleaded humbly, "Zhan Ting, believe me! I really didn't hurt Ling'er..."
Li Zhanting's face was frighteningly cold: "Gu Shanshan, I don't care how the elders of the Li family view you, but I have already given you a sum of money, and the matter from back then is considered settled."
