Ni Sitian frowned slightly. The child looked about the same age as Tuantuan, and they even looked somewhat alike...
Ni Sitian's heart skipped a beat, and she carefully examined her eyebrows and eyes.
"Sister, if you agree to adopt her, I'll immediately turn myself in to the police station. Anyway, I only have two months to live, so it doesn't matter where I spend it. I beg you, for the sake of our years of sisterhood, please adopt Xiaowan. All the mistakes are mine, Xiaowan has done nothing wrong. She's already suffered so much following me around, hiding and running." Su Yan cried uncontrollably. "I heard you're doing very well with your children's charity foundation. Please have pity on your little niece, okay?"
Su Yan glanced at the little girl sitting there quietly. She looked so thin and frail, it was truly pitiful.
Su Yan is indeed despicable, but she is right. The child is innocent, and she is related to her by blood; she is her little niece.
"I can't give you an answer right now." Su Yan felt that she had to discuss this with Xin Zikai.
Her body was no longer suitable for having children, a fact that she and Xin Zikai were well aware of. That's why they had been discussing adopting a child recently. Who knew that Su Yan would approach her today and make such a request?
She originally intended to call the police to arrest her, but seeing that she had a child with her, she decided to listen to what she had to say first.
Unexpectedly, she had lived such a miserable life for the past two years. After escaping the search by the police and Shen Muzhi, she boarded a smuggling ship and discovered that she was pregnant. Later, when the crew learned that she was a wanted criminal, they simply abandoned her on a small island inhabited by natives.
She was captured by the natives and taken back to be their wife. The area was a lawless zone with very peculiar customs. There were far more men than women in the village, so it was common for brothers to share a wife, and even fathers, sons, uncles, and cousins to do so. It was incredibly chaotic. She tried to escape several times, but was captured each time. She couldn't communicate with the people there, so even with all her cunning, she couldn't use it effectively.
She was initially unwilling to give birth to the child, but somehow the people there knew she was pregnant and tried everything to make her give birth to the child.
She had no choice but to give birth, and after that, her endless suffering began.
The men there don't treat women like human beings at all; they treat women as mere creatures to mate with and as tools for bearing children.
They had no moral compass or civilized ideas. The place was like an uncivilized wilderness, a living hell for the woman, who was tormented to the point that she regretted not going to prison.
Later, she contracted syphilis and began to smell foul. They planned to get rid of her, but she took the child and fled overnight. This time, she succeeded, perhaps because her health had deteriorated and they no longer needed her, so they didn't have to go to much trouble to find her.
After many twists and turns, she finally returned to the city, only to be told by a doctor that she didn't have much time left.
That's why she had no choice but to bring her child back to Yihai, hoping to entrust him to her mother. However, her mother had passed away last year, and after much thought, she realized that Su Yan was the only one she could rely on.
"Sister, I was so foolish and made such a mistake. I'm so sorry, so very sorry." Tears streamed down her face.
“These words of repentance are useless if you say them to me. You should go to Dad’s grave and say them to him,” Su Yan interrupted her.
