After an unknown amount of time, the woman slowly woke up.

She slowly opened her eyes and subconsciously pounded her aching temples. Then she remembered what happened before she fainted. She sat up suddenly from the bed, only to find that her hands and feet were tied.

She struggled hard.

Suddenly, Leng Li's voice rang in her ears.

"Mom, please stop struggling. It's useless!"

Hearing her voice, the woman's eyes suddenly widened and she looked in the direction of the voice. When she saw Leng Li sitting beside the bed, she became extremely excited.

"You little bitch, you are really an ungrateful wolf. If I had known this would happen, I should have strangled you to death when I gave birth to you. You actually teamed up with outsiders to deal with me."

Leng Li's eyes were red and she looked at him with heartache.

"Mom, I'm sorry. I don't want this to happen, but - but -"

When she got to this point, her throat seemed to be blocked by something, and it became increasingly difficult for her to speak.

"But, I don't have much time left! I won't be able to help you get revenge in this lifetime! The Lu family is powerful, and you are just throwing an egg against a rock when you deal with them. I can't take care of you for the rest of my life and repay you for raising me. I just want you to have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life after I die, and not live in hatred anymore."

After hearing her words, the woman who had been struggling, twisting and cursing suddenly stopped and looked at Leng Li in surprise.

"What do you mean by that? What do you mean by time is running out?"

Is that what she understood?

But how is it possible.

Hasn’t Leng Li been fine all along?

How come time suddenly seems to be running out?

Could it be that he made some kind of deal with the Lu family?

This was the first time in Leng Li's life that she saw an expression other than abuse on her face, and her eyes unconsciously turned red.

From childhood to adulthood, she has always lived in her mother's hatred.

Every day her mother would tell her how the Lu family had harmed her.

The Lu family deserves to die.

If it weren't for Jian Si, she wouldn't have been disfigured, and she would now be living the life of a lady with everything provided for her.

It was Jian Si and the Lu family who ruined everything for her.

If it weren't for the Lu family, she wouldn't have become an orphan and her father wouldn't have died.

Under the influence of her mother for a long time, she also hated the Lu family and was very simple-minded. She wished they all died.

However, when she deliberately approached Lu Yanbai, she knew what it felt like to be cared for.

And Jian Si, her mother's all-time enemy, treated her like her own daughter.

During the time she was sick, I tried my best and used all my ability to help her.

The warmth, love, and cherishment she felt from her enemy were things she had never felt from her biological mother.

As time went by, she began to doubt her mother's words.

Is the Lu family really her enemy?

Are the people in the Lu family really so evil?

Do not!

Certainly not!

If the Lu family were really evil, they wouldn't be so nice to her, a stranger.

She has nothing, and the Lu family has no ulterior motives, so there is no such thing as ulterior motives, so they treat her well.

Since the Lu family is not wrong.

So what happened to the grudge back then?

Her mother only said that the Lu family had harmed her, but she never told her the details of the grudges of the past.

Since she couldn't resolve the hatred in her mother's heart, she only hoped that her mother could live in peace and safety for the rest of her life and stop seeking revenge.

With her current ability, seeking revenge on the Lu family would undoubtedly be like hitting a rock with an egg and would only lead to her own death.

Seeing that she didn't speak, the woman sneered and said sarcastically: "What? In order not to take revenge, in order not to hurt Lu Yanbai, you want to threaten me with death? I tell you, even if it means death, you have to kill Lu Yanbai for me and destroy the Lu family."

Leng Li said earnestly, "When will the cycle of revenge end? Mom, forget it! Even if we destroy the Lu family, the Lu family will come after us for revenge. If we continue like this, there will be no end to it and it will keep on entangled."

The woman smiled triumphantly.

"Then keep pestering me! For the rest of my life, for all my lives! Isn't this good? Even if I can't get him, I can always annoy him."

Catching the message in her words, Leng Li frowned slightly.

"What do you mean? Who can't you get? Who do you hate?"

Realizing that she had said the wrong thing, the woman immediately shut her mouth and changed the subject, starting to curse again: "You damn girl, let me go quickly! I tell you, since you are my daughter, you have to listen to me for the rest of your life. Don't even think about evading your responsibilities."

Leng Li knew that she would not listen to anything he said, so he simply stopped explaining and said directly: "Jian Sichen promised me that he would send you to a city with convenient life. He will ensure that you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life! The grievances between our two families, let it be! After a hundred years, they will disappear with you."

The woman's heart skipped a beat and sank suddenly.

"What do you mean? You don't want to take care of me? So you let Jian Sichen send me away? You want to live together with Lu Yanbai? I tell you, it's absolutely impossible! As long as you are alive, you will be my daughter, and you have to shoulder your responsibilities! You can be with any man, but not with Lu Yanbai! I tell you, it's absolutely not possible."

Tears fell quietly from the corners of my eyes.

Leng Li sniffed hard.

How she wanted to tell her mother that she didn't have much time left.

I have a terminal illness and will die soon.

but--

She felt that her mother didn't seem to care at all.

In the mother's mind, there was only hatred, and she didn't care about her daughter's life or death at all.

If that were the case, why should she tell her?

If she told them, her mother might urge her to take revenge quickly and destroy the Lu family before she died.

"Mom, please think about it carefully by yourself. I'm going to leave first."

Leng Li sighed, got up and left.

The woman was still cursing.

"Leng Li, come back here - I'm telling you, don't even think about getting rid of me, you ungrateful bastard. I worked so hard to give birth to you and raise you, and this is how you repay me?

I tell you, don't ever think of getting rid of me in your life. I will definitely run back. I will come back to find you one day.

When the time comes, I will drag you down to see your father and see if you have the face to see her.

You ungrateful bastard, come back—come back—"

Unfortunately, no matter how she yelled or called out, Leng Li seemed not to hear her.

After leaving the room, Leng Li stood quietly at the door, listening to her mother's curses and insults, her heart aching again and again.

why?

Why do other mothers love their children?

And her mother only has revenge in her eyes?

Just then, Jian Sichen came towards them with a doctor in a white coat.

Leng Li asked cautiously: "You, what are you doing? You said you wouldn't hurt my mother?"

Jian Sichen said calmly: "Don't worry, I am a man of my words. If I say I won't hurt her, I will definitely not hurt her. I will keep our promise and send her to a place where she can spend her old age in peace.

But before sending her away, I had to confirm her identity.

Who on earth has a deep hatred for our Lu family and is deliberately trying to harm the Lu family and Xiaobai? Drawing blood and testing DNA is the easiest way."

Leng Li breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

"Okay! As long as you don't hurt her, I'll do anything."

In fact, she was also very curious about what deep hatred her mother had with the Lu family, and why she was still only thinking about revenge.
