Wu Ming

With a heavy heart, she walked out of the hospital.

She crushed the report and threw it into the trash can. She sighed deeply and raised her hand to hail a taxi.

"To Qing Yuan." Ning Zhi was using this reason to trick Li Yan into giving her leave in the morning. She did not expect herself to go there in the afternoon.

[Mother of Ning Zhi—Yang Yi]

Beside the monument was her mother's favorite bouquet: Sunflowers.

Li Yan must have sent it. Ning Zhi took it away and gently brushed away the dust on the monument.

"Mom, I'm here to see you."

The reason why Ning Zhi hated mistresses was actually because of her primary family.

Her family used to be considered rich. Unfortunately, her father gradually lost himself in fame and fortune. In the end, he kept a woman.

The mistress came to cause trouble when Ning Zhi's mother was pregnant with a second child. In the end, she died together with the unborn child

It was also because of this her father's company went bankrupt and he took on several billion yuan of debt. Finally, he committed suicide by jumping off a building.

As for the mistress, when she found out something was wrong, she ran away.

The Ning Family had been destroyed, leaving only the young Ning Zhi and the old grandmother to rely on each other.

It was also for this reason that Ning Zhi was unwilling to acknowledge her so-called father.

Her grandmother passed away half a year ago. However, Li Yan did not know about this, and she had no intention to tell him.

Grandmother's grave was in Qing Yuan too, but it was not with Mother Ning.

She had already planned for the three of them to be buried near each other if she was not around one day.

"Grandma, I have a baby." After seeing Mother Ning, she went to see her grandmother.

Even though the baby had yet to develop, she put her hand to her stomach and savored the feeling of having a baby in her belly.

"What should I do? Mommy seems to be reluctant to part with you now."

The doctor also said that with her current physical condition, it was very likely that she would never be able to get pregnant again. Therefore, this child might be her last relative in this world.

Ning Zhi was never a sentimental person, but at this moment, her tears were somewhat uncontrollable.

The sky gradually darkened. She bid farewell to the security guards there and left. On the way home, she received a call from her best friend.

"Hello, Darling Zhi Zhi, guess where am I?" Tang Tang's sweet voice came from the other end of the phone, making her feel much better.

"Aren't you in Australia?"

Tang Tang and Ning Zhi grew up as neighbors. Later on, Tang Tang's parents divorced, and she left with her mother.

Unexpectedly, the two of them met again in high school, but they were completely different from before.

Ning Zhi's family went bankrupt and she had to rely on her hard work to get into a prestigious high school. Tang Tang's mother found a rich stepfather and relied on him for funding to get into the international department of the prestigious high school. Only then did the two of them reconnect.

Later on, Ning Zhi went to university, but because of her grandmother's illness, she had to drop out.

Tang Tang had also gone abroad willingly to study, but the two of them had never stopped contacting each other.

"No, no, no, I'm at the airport! Are you free now? Let's go eat together!"

"Okay!" Ning Zhi happily agreed. The time spent with Tang Tang could be said to be one of the few moments when Ning Zhi could be happy and be herself.

The two of them immediately went to the hotpot restaurant.

"So, have you decided to leave Li Yan?" The hot pot and cold soda made Tang Tang feel exceptionally comfortable.

"It's impossible for me to be the third party. Besides, I'm sick of seeing Li Yan's face. Of course, I have to leave." Ning Zhi took a big bite of the fat beef slice.

"By the way, why are you not having that cold beer today? I remember that you've always liked their beer, right?" Tang Tang looked at Ning Zhi in confusion. To her, Ning Zhi was someone who cannot be happy without alcohol.

"No, I can't drink it now."

Ning Zhi's words caused Tang Tang's brain to freeze.

"You… you can't be…" Tang Tang's eyes followed her finger and pointed to Ning Zhi's stomach.

"Two months," Ning Zhi said.

"Is it Li Yan's?" Tang Tang was shocked. After all, in her impression, according to Ning Zhi's personality, she wouldn't have a child with someone she didn't like.

Ning Zhi also knew what Tang Tang was thinking. Before she could think even more crookedly, she had to tell her the truth.

"So you've thought it through?" Tang Tang held Ning Zhi's hand with heartache. "It's fine. I'll raise the child with you!"

"Then I will let the child call you godmother!" Ning Zhi also held Tang Tang's hand.

Both of them had eaten their fill by night. Ning Zhi stood at the entrance of the hotpot restaurant, waiting for Tang Tang to drive over.
