However, whether it was a rumor or a joke, it was a fact that Jiang Yueli had a close relationship with the Shen family.

From the age of 16, Jiang Yueli spent almost every Spring Festival at Shen's house. Sometimes Shen Ju was busy working overtime, and only she and Mrs. Shen were left at home to watch the new year.

It turned out that Jiang Yueli hadn't celebrated a festival for many years, and the only thing she remembered was the anniversary of her mother's death, and she lived the rest as usual.

It wasn't until Shen Ju brought her home that she had the concept of festivals. From the big Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival to the small Children's Day, Mrs. Shen always remembered to greet her.

Except for the previous year.

Jiang Yueli disappeared in an accident the year before, and was reported missing because the body was not found.

But in fact most people thought she was dead, because the last place she was seen was at the explosion site.

However, in order not to worry Mrs. Shen, no one told her about this speculation, and they all vaguely said that she had a mission.

Mrs. Shen also has a certain understanding of Jiang Yueli's own work, and there is no such task as "business trip", so she knows it well in her heart.

Although she didn't mention it again, when she saw Jiang Yueli who came to visit later, tears fell while holding her.

Obviously, she also guessed what kind of danger Jiang Yueli encountered before.

But more inside information—whether it was the reason she was brought back by Bureau Shen, the reason why she changed her job later, or the explosion the year before and everything that happened after that, they all hid it very well.

"Then should I call you Zhaoying or Yueli?" Lu Mingxuan asked.

"It's up to you." Jiang Yueli replied, "As long as you don't miss the details."

"Ah..." Lu Mingxuan leaned on the sofa and sighed softly, "You really don't care about your name at all, then you..."

Originally, Lu Mingxuan wanted to ask Jiang Yueli about her biological father——

Who is her real father?

Did you find her again later?

Doesn't he know that he has such a daughter?

Or, he didn't want to admit it at all?

But when she thought of Jiang Yueli's mother who passed away early, she felt that this must be another tragic past.

Lu Mingxuan paused, then abruptly changed the subject: "Then what were you like when you were a child? Before you met Shen Ju?"

When talking about his less important past, Jiang Yueli obviously became less tense, even a little indifferent and careless.

"It's just getting up, eating, reading, walking, eating and sleeping. It's just a day to kill. Then I met my brother, who is my teacher, so I spent a little more time learning other things..."

In Jiang Yueli's consciousness, Hua Zhaoying's past was indeed lackluster.

Hua Zhaoying was born in District [-], a well-known slum area. When her mother gave birth to her, she didn't even go to the hospital. She only relied on the kindness of the neighbors nearby to help her deliver the child.

Compared with her mother, the neighbor's aunt treated her much more carefully.

The young lady supported her to such a desperate situation with her arrogance. It is rare to be able to persevere, but it would be nonsense to say how good she is at taking care of children.

Therefore, Hua Zhaoying has been raised by herds since she was born.

Even though her mother didn't love her or ignored him deliberately, but she was a first-time mother after all, and there were no better conditions. It was normal for Hua Zhaoying to be hungry and full when she was a child.

Fortunately, the neighbor's aunt had just given birth to a child, and she couldn't see the young mother mistreating her child so much, so she offered to help.

It can be said that if it weren't for that kind neighbor, Hua Zhaoying might not have been able to live to such a big age.

But the neighbor is an outsider after all, and it is kind of nice to help her when she is free, but it is impossible to raise her forever.

Hua Yige has had a difficult life since she was pregnant, and even the child in her stomach has suffered. After giving birth, her physique is much weaker than that of ordinary children.

When she was young, she was not well taken care of. It was a problem to have enough food, let alone absorb any nutrients. Therefore, Hua Zhaoying developed later than her peers and was weaker since she was a child.

It takes twice as long to grow, speak slowly, and learn to walk, and it takes twice as long to receive emotional feedback.

Because of this, Hua Zhaoying was once considered a demented fool.

Neighbors persuaded Hua Yige to lose the child, or give it to other rich people to raise, maybe her dementia could be cured.

But Hua Yige was still reluctant after all, so he could only teach her bit by bit without any expectation.

When Hua Zhaoying finally started to walk crookedly when she was three or four years old, she had already started fighting.

Hua Yige took her daughter back with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and taught her while crying. She was both distressed and uncomfortable.

She thought her daughter was an idiot—literally—that was why she was fighting kids who were much older and stronger than herself.

Hua Zhaoying didn't seem to know the pain at all, she stared blankly at her mother, and after a while asked her mother in confusion, didn't she say that she had to be brave to resist in the face of evil forces?

Hua Yige was also stunned for a long time, she thought it was just a coincidence that her daughter would remember the bedtime story she told a long time ago, but Hua Zhaoying muttered that she had told it twelve times, and she already knew how to recite it.
