Li An’an asked the children to finish their meal quickly as she wanted to send them home first. However, when she was going downstairs on the elevator, she ran into someone she knew. The person was on the phone with her head lowered. She was a thin, middle-aged woman.
Li An’an lowered her hat and followed her quietly.
“Mommy, why are we following her?” Junjun asked. Mommy was trailing someone.
“Mommy wants to confirm something.” Li An’an held the three children’s hands and blended into the crowd, quietly following the woman a few steps behind. The woman was very alert and kept looking around, as if she was afraid of being seen by someone she knew.
Li An’an was glad that she had brought the three children with her. When the other party turned around to look, she only glanced at them and did not suspect anything.
“Mommy, who is she?” Li Baobao was curious as well. She had been walking with her mommy a long way, and Baobao’s leg hurt.
“An administrator in the orphanage that Mommy used to be in. She likes bullying kids.”
That person’s name was Song Li. She was a woman with little compassion and always liked bullying the kids. When Li An’an was young, she was often bullied by Song Li, who had a rotten character. Director Wang said that the jade pendant was missing, and Song Li was sneaking around here. Her intuition told her, this had something to do with the jade pendant.
“Oh, Mommy, was bullied by her, right?” Li Baobao pouted.
“No. At that time, there was a principal who was very good to Mommy. Mommy wasn’t bullied, so Baobao doesn’t have to feel sad.
Li An’an ruffled Baobao’s hair, held her hand, and led Junjun and Jünjbn to follow the woman.
Song Li went to the beauty salon to look for Liu Luhua, who had promised her 200,000 yuan to locate the jade pendant. Now that she got the jade pendant, she had come to collect the money.
Liu Luhua had just finished a full body essential oil massage. She was lying on the small bed with her back bare. When she saw Song Li, she hurriedly got up and put on her clothes. “Where’s the jade pendant?”
“It’s in my bag, look.” Song Li took out an old jade pendant. Liu Luhua stood up excitedly. She had finally found it.
“Give it to me, hurry!”
“Mrs. Li, we agreed to exchange the money and the item at the same time. Also, I want cash. If you’re worried, I’ll put the jade pendant on the table and neither of us will touch it!”
Liu Luhua got angry. “What era are we in now dealing in cash? I’ll transfer it to your bank account!” She started to reach for the jade pendant.
Song Li stopped her. “No, it’s not safe to use my bank card. No one must find out about this matter, or my pension in the future will be gone.”
“Then I’ll transfer it to your WeChat.”
“I don’t know how to use that. As you know, I spend my days with annoying children and have never been exposed to these new things.”
Liu Luhua gritted her teeth and immediately made a call instructing someone to prepare the cash.
“Get me a glass of water!” She demanded of the beautician beside her.
The beautician nodded. When she opened the door, she saw a beautiful little boy.
“Grandma.” The little boy ran to Song Li’s side.
Song Li was taken aback. She had never gotten married and worked in the orphanage all her life. How could she have a grandson?
“You’ve got the wrong person. Let go!”
The little boy was beautiful and dashing, like a little prince, but still, she didn’t like him. She was already sick of taking care of the abandoned children in the orphanage every day. As if that wasn’t bad enough, she was now pestered by yet another child. She pushed the child away violently.
The child fell onto the table and started sobbing. “Hmph, you’re not my grandma. You’re a bad person. My grandma is really nice, unlike you!” With that, the little boy ran away quickly.
Song Li became even more anxious. “When will your money be ready? I have to go back quickly, or I’ll be suspected.”
“What’s the hurry? It’s already on the way. Where’s the jade pendant? It’s gone!” Liu Luhua turned ashen. How did the piece of jade just vanish?
Song Li immediately understood. “That child stole it!” There were dishonest children in the orphanage. They were never soft-hearted when dealing with them, she was very accurate in spotting them.
The two of them quickly gave chase..
