My baby is two and a half years old. Daddy, hurry up and make some milk!

Teacher Ranran acted swiftly, and Shen Wanning and Gu Nansheng met Lele's mother the next morning.

For this reason, Ms. Ranran even took half a day off.

In the office, a simply dressed woman stood in the middle of the room and bowed deeply to the two men.

"Teacher Ranran told me that the two of them had no relation to Lele, yet they were willing to get involved in this mess. Su Qing will never forget it."

Lele's mother, Su Qing, is a gentle-looking woman, about the same age as Gu Nansheng, but looks much older.

When she got divorced, she did try to fight for custody of Lele, but how could a woman who had married far away from home, had no background, no job, and no income, possibly compete with Lele's father, who was a local bigwig?

She could have returned to her parents' home after the divorce and lived a decent life, but she couldn't bear to leave her child and resolutely stayed in the city.

She has been out of the workforce for many years and has repeatedly encountered setbacks in her job search. She can only do odd jobs temporarily, and her life is still very difficult.

Yesterday, she suddenly received a call from the police saying that Lele was seriously injured and hospitalized, so she rushed to the hospital without stopping.

When she saw her son lying in the hospital bed, thin as a skeleton, her heart felt like it was being torn apart, and she couldn't breathe from the pain.

When she left, the child was still chubby, but in just one year, he has been ruined like this.

Especially when the police said that the child had a lot of injuries, this usually gentle and dignified woman could no longer care about anything else. She stepped forward and punched and kicked Lele's father. Lele's father tried to fight back, but was stopped by the police present.

Lele's father brought the police to the house; they wanted to summon the current female head of the household.

After everyone left, Su Qing suddenly felt all her strength drain away. She collapsed in front of Lele's hospital bed and carefully reached out to hold that pitiful little hand.

Teacher Ranran came in at that moment, revealed her identity, and brought her some good news.

"Lele's mom, you don't need to do this. We are all mothers."

Shen Wanning helped her up and led her to sit down.

"What are you planning to do next?"

Gu Nansheng handed her a cup of hot water and asked about her plans.

"I'm going to sue them, get back custody of Lele, and make that abusive woman who abused Lele receive the punishment she deserves."

Su Qing spoke these words with deep hatred.

How could she not hate them? They had ruined her son so badly; she wished she could eat their flesh and drink their blood.

"But right now, I don't even have the money to hire a lawyer."

When Su Qing got divorced, she was decisive and didn't ask for a single penny, just so that the man would treat Lele better.

The man promised to treat the child well, but in reality, he couldn't change his ways and didn't care about the child at all.

Shen Wanning laughed when she heard this. This was too easy. Didn't they have a top lawyer in their family?

And she's the kind of person that even if others wanted to hire her, they couldn't.

Achoo!

Shen Shilan, who was holed up at home, sneezed loudly. Who was cursing him?

After Teacher Ranran and Su Qing left, Shen Wanning, for the first time ever, invited her brother Shen Shilan to have lunch together.

So it was my little sister thinking about me. I was wondering why I kept sneezing today.

"What? You want me to be that child's mother's defense lawyer?"

At the dinner table, Shen Shilan had just finished eating her steak and hadn't even had a chance to swallow it when her sister pulled this stunt.

Indeed, there's no such thing as a free lunch.

"Is it too late for me to throw it up now?"

"Why don't you give it a try?"

Shen Wanning has her brother completely under her thumb.

"Ningning, it's not that your brother doesn't want to help you. Look, I stayed up countless days and nights to finish my work and come here to be with you. I've only had a few days off, and you've already arranged things for me again. Don't you feel sorry for your poor brother?"

When Shen Shilan realized that force wouldn't work, he started complaining to his sister.

"If you don't want to help, I'll call Mom right now and ask her to arrange a blind date for you."

As Shen Wanning spoke, she took out her phone to call Xiang Jiahui.

"No, no, no, I'll take it, okay? I'm scared of you."

Heung Ka-wai already found fault with him in every way, and if his sister added that kick to his head, he'd probably be kicked out of the house by his mother that very night.

"However, you know my market value; even if someone else has the money, they might not be able to hire me."

I'll just accept it; it's better than getting beaten to death by my mom.

"Hehe, bro, I might have to pay for this first."

Shen Wanning picked up a piece of foie gras for her brother and said it somewhat shyly.

Shen Shilan: "..."

"You're such a good sister to me."

Shen Shilan gritted her teeth and swallowed the foie gras in one gulp, glaring helplessly at her younger sister across from her.

Having secured the services of the renowned lawyer Shen Shilan, Shen Wanning immediately called Su Qing to share the good news.

In the hospital, Su Qing, who was feeding Lele porridge, received a phone call and burst into tears of joy. What did she, Su Qing, do to deserve such a wonderful person?

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Seeing her mother laughing and crying at the same time, Lele couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"It's okay, Lele. Mommy is happy that a kind auntie is willing to help Mommy get back custody of you, so you can live with Mommy from now on."

"Really? Mom, I don't have to go back to that house anymore?"

Lele's eyes were full of light. He was finally free from hunger and beatings and could live with his mother from now on.

Hearing her child's words, Su Qing felt a pang of heartache and hugged him tightly. How much suffering had her child endured to be so afraid of returning to that home?

This time, she will not back down. No matter the cost, she will fight back custody of her child.

At this moment, Teacher Ranran was surrounded by a group of little girls at the kindergarten.

"Teacher, teacher, what's wrong with Lele?"

"Teacher, is Lele dead?"

"Teacher, is Lele poisoned? Are we going to die too?"

"......"

I don't know where these little ones heard the news from, but they said Lele was poisoned and was about to die.

They didn't quite understand the word; they had only heard of it often.

"No, Lele is just sick. He'll be back when he gets better."

Teacher Ranran patiently answered the little kids' questions one by one.

Meanwhile, the culprit who spread the rumor was happily munching on a bag of snacks.

Even though Shen Wanning confiscated her snacks last night, a bunch of kids still came to offer them today. Le Bao's life couldn't be better.

"Le Bao, is Lele really going to die?"

The little guy didn't understand what dying meant; he just kept nodding, looking as certain as if he had witnessed it firsthand.

Yu Muchen, standing to the side: ......

Fine, let Le Bao say whatever she wants. It won't hurt her to say it.

Lele, who was rumored to be dying, was sleeping happily in her mother's arms.
