Chapter 1284: Chapter 1284: Abandoned Twice Harshly

“I accused them of how they could do such a thing when they had promised to treat that child as their own daughter. They kept apologizing to me and crying, saying that raising a child was too expensive, their family could only afford one. Qin had finally become pregnant with a son, they couldn’t just abort their own flesh and blood for an adopted child. They had no choice but to abandon the child. They even assured me, saying they left the child in an absolutely safe place, and nothing would happen.”

“I felt so devastated, guilty, and angry at that time that I stormed off. I didn’t have much contact with their family afterward. Later on, they bought a house in the neighboring city and moved away. The year before last, that relative also died. You’re asking me now where they abandoned the child, I really don’t know, ah, I’m sorry, I didn’t know that woman was a trafficker, and she stole your daughter. I often regretted later that I should have asked more. Asked clearly where they had left the child, even if I didn’t take care, I could have helped send the child to an orphanage or some other welfare institution!”

Jiang Chenyue suddenly closed her eyes, feeling dizzy.

She remembered grabbing the wrist of the gaunt woman in a fit of emotion, asking her, “Think again, where did they abandon the child!”

But the woman shook her head apologetically, saying, “I don’t know, I didn’t ask at the time, and now people are dead, there’s no way for me to help you ask now. I only know it wasn’t an orphanage! They were afraid that abandoning the girl would lead to legal responsibilities, so they dared not leave the child at an orphanage. I asked them, and they hesitated and only said they left the child in a safe place, definitely no problem, no danger to life. They also said it was a crowded place, very easy for someone to pick her up. Exactly where, I don’t know.”

“I’m sorry, I didn’t know that was your child, we were all deceived by that woman, really thought it was a child she bore out of wedlock, we thought since her man betrayed her, she didn’t want to care for the child, it would be a sin for the child to continue with her. Originally, we had good intentions to find a home for the child, who knew that relative later got pregnant again, our good intentions led to bad results. If you hadn’t come to me, I still wouldn’t know what I had done wrong. I really am sorry, so sorry… If I had known she was stealing someone else’s child I would have called the police.”

Jiang Chenyue’s heart trembled with anger, the pain intense and intricate, incomparable to the ache in her heart.

She had originally thought that finding the small inn landlady where that woman had stayed would lead to finding Xixi, but the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.

Her Xixi had actually been abandoned twice.

No wonder she had searched all the orphanages in and around Capital City these years, and there were no clues about Xixi—these people never sent Xixi to an orphanage!

That woman… that woman… Jiang Chenyue felt a biting hatred, her pale, pained face filled with layers of resentment.

She had never hated anyone before, but now she especially hated that woman who had already died.

Had she known how that woman treated her Xixi, she would not have let that woman die so easily back then.

She wanted that woman to live, enduring pain and torture every day, and even if she was about to die, she would have a specialist keep her alive, until she found Xixi back, that woman should have lived in the everlasting fear of never being able to die!
