Chapter 96: Tears Flowing Down Her Face
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Li Zhenting watched his little figure, a slight smile playing on his lips.
“Ding Ding, if you see anything you want to buy, add it to the cart and send it to Daddy. Daddy will buy it for you.”
“I don’t want your stinky money,” Ding Ding ran back to his room in frustration, slamming the door shut and dragging a chair over.
On top of a bookshelf was a piggy bank.
He had to muster all his strength to get it down.
This was his New Year’s gift money!
He circled around the piggy bank several times; it was quite big, and the only way to get the money out was to break it open.
Ding Ding was reluctant to break this ceramic piggy bank with its big belly and round face. It was bought in a small town in Italy, and the porcelain was exceptionally white with a delicate texture. Especially the round, rosy cheeks that gave it a smiling expression. Whenever he looked at it, he felt a soothing sense of comfort.
This ceramic piece had accompanied him through several years of his childhood.
He gently caressed its head with his chubby hand, tears streaming down his face.
“Piggy, 1 have to break you, or Xiao Xiao and Coco won’t have money for school. Mommy works so hard; she struggles to raise them all on her own.”
During their time at the Zhengsheng Apartment, he had seen Mommy worrying about money many times. She often worked late into the night and only had a cold, hard bun for breakfast the next day.
He wanted to do something for that family!
Li Manor, the Butler’s Office.
“Housekeeper Luo,” Shen Ning smiled as she walked in.
“You… Young… Young Madam,” Housekeeper Luo looked up at Shen Ning with widened eyes. “You’re alive?”
“Yes,” Shen Ning nodded with a smile, taking a seat across from him.
Housekeeper Luo suddenly burst into tears of joy. “That’s wonderful, as long as you’re okay.”
“Indeed, indeed,” Housekeeper Luo mumbled, excitedly talking to himself.
“Housekeeper Luo, I’d like to ask about Ding Ding’s situation in the Li Manor,” Shen Ning asked straightforwardly, her face filled with concern.
Housekeeper Luo was taken aback. Why was she inquiring about Ding Ding’s situation? Ding Ding was the son of her romantic rival, Shen Mei, and the young master. Did she… his heart sank.
Shen Ning noticed his thoughts and decided to confide in him, seeking his assistance.
“What? Ding Ding, the young master, is your child?” After she roughly explained the situation to Housekeeper Luo, his eyes widened in astonishment.
“Shh, keep your voice down,” Shen Ning raised her index finger and her eyes reddened. “So, I’m very worried about his upbringing and feel guilty for not being a good mother. I can’t provide him with the love he deserves. I want to understand his situation.”
“No wonder, no wonder,” Housekeeper Luo mumbled, emotionally stirred. “I always wondered why she could be so indifferent to Ding Ding. She puts on one act in front of the young master and another behind his back. She completely disregards the child. Now 1 understand.”
As he spoke, he wiped his tears with a tissue and shared some details about Ding Ding with Shen Ning.
Listening intently, tears welled up in Shen Ning’s eyes.
Coco’s situation was quite similar, further strengthening her determination.
“Housekeeper Luo, please help me. I want to take care of the child personally for a while,” she pleaded tearfully.
She had made up her mind while the family doctor was bandaging her hand.
It was impossible to sneak into the heavily guarded Li Manor, so she had to find a way to take care of Ding Ding openly. Therefore, she needed Housekeeper Luo’s assistance..
