Xie Mingzhu looked at the pile of money, then at Cui Lanhua and Zhou Dazhu, and asked somewhat blankly.
"How could you have so much money? How could you possibly have so much money? Where did this money come from?"
Hearing her daughter's words, and recalling the things Cui Lanhua had said in her panic, Huang Meiling suddenly realized something. She took a deep breath and forcefully suppressed her anger—
"Is this the money you got from selling my daughter?!"
Cui Lanhua and Zhou Dazhu were so guilty that they didn't dare to look at them, their eyes constantly darting around.
Xie Wenyuan clutched Cui Dazhu's collar, feeling the trembling breath he was taking as it hit the back of his hand.
That's enough to illustrate the point.
Huang Meiling and Xie Wenyuan felt as if their hearts had been gripped tightly by a large hand.
The two slowly turned their heads, looking at Xie Mingzhu with heartache, and for a moment they didn't know what to say.
Xie Mingzhu's mind went blank, and it took her a long time to recover. The words Cui Lanhua had just said kept replaying in her mind.
Her face was pale as she shook her head repeatedly in disbelief.
"How could this be... how could this be?"
She has no recollection of the harm she suffered.
If these things are true, how could she have no memory of them at all...?
Xie Mingzhu desperately tried to recall, desperately trying to use her memory to prove that what Cui Lanhua said was all false, and that she had not suffered those harms.
But that memory was a complete blank for her.
She couldn't remember anything at all, and had no recollection of what she had experienced back then.
Xie Mingzhu was not one to deceive herself. She opened her mouth in anguish, wanting to question and confirm, but the memories of the Zhong family after losing their child flooded her mind, as if they were indirectly confirming something.
Xie Mingzhu realized that there seemed to be no need to question it anymore.
No wonder the Zhou family was so panicked when her child was gone... They couldn't possibly have felt any pity for her, so it's only possible that they wanted to use her child to make more money, and that's why they were so anxious and upset when they found out the child was gone.
Xie Mingzhu felt like she couldn't breathe; the answer was excruciatingly painful for her.
She thought she had already suffered enough harm, but she never imagined there was more she was unaware of...
Shock quickly turned into anger. Xie Mingzhu rushed forward, grabbed Cui Lanhua by the collar, stared straight into his eyes, and shouted angrily.
"So who was that person back then? Tell me, who exactly was he!"
Cui Lanhua was so terrified by his yelling that she stammered out a name without daring to hide it.
"It's...it's Hu Yunguang."
"who is he?"
"He...he was the owner of a factory that Dawei was hosting."
"When...when he passed by our house, he came in for a cup of tea, and happened to see you working inside. He took a liking to you at first sight..."
Knowing she was in the wrong, Cui Lanhua spoke softer and softer.
"He told Dawei that he had taken a liking to you and wanted to be with you..."
"Dawei has no objections, and we figured you're usually so... obedient, you probably won't refuse, so we..."
"obedient?"
Xie Mingzhu laughed bitterly and angrily, raised her hand high, and slapped him hard without hesitation.
"Bastards! Animals! You two are not even fit to be human!"
"What do you mean by 'obedient'? You actually have the nerve to embellish yourselves?"
