Chapter 242: Chapter 241: The Child Was Sold_1

"Where are they?"

Upon learning that her children were indeed alive, Yan Ling’s voice quivered with tension.

However, the response she received from Li Yong made her feel as if she’d been doused with cold water.

Seeing Yan Ling so agitated, Li Yong felt somewhat guilty. After a while, he stuttered, "They were taken away by a stranger five years ago!"

Yan Ling’s world began to spiral out of control.

She had been bouncing from place to place for so long, assuming that locating Li Yong would bring her news about her children. She hadn’t foreseen him informing her that another individual had taken them.

She couldn’t panic. The more she panicked, the harder it would be for her to discern her children’s whereabouts.

"Who was this person? Why did you give my children to him? And, why should I trust you?"

Li Yong was somewhat taken aback by how quickly Yan Ling regained her composure.

Faced with her aggressive questioning, he had no choice but to confess, "That man gave me two million for both kids. Afraid he might go back on his word, I secretly recorded the conversation. The tape recorder is in the third compartment of my study. If you don’t believe me, you can go listen for yourself. However, I genuinely don’t know who he is. When we met, he had someone blindfolded me."

Two million!

Li Yong sold her kids for a mere two million!

With eyes blazing red with rage, Yan Ling wished she could skewer Li Yong a thousand times over.

"How did he contact you! And, what’d he want with my kids?"

Li Yong was left speechless by these two questions from Yan Ling.

Seeing him not answering, Yan Ling clenched her teeth and snapped, "You didn’t know who he was, where he was from, or what he wanted my children for, yet you sold them anyway? Are you even human?""

Facing Yan Ling’s continuous tirade, Li Yong snapped back defensively, "It wasn’t my fault! It was all due to that old hag’s refusal to relinquish her power, and my dire financial situation, that I came up with the idea of selling your kids! If you want to blame someone, blame that old witch. She is the one who caused her own great-grandson and great-granddaughter’s predicament!"

Yan Ling knew that Li Yong was without shame, but she hadn’t expected him to stoop that low.

She ran out of patience to wrangle with him about pointless matters, picked up the signed agreement, and turned her back to him.

Upon seeing her leave, Li Yong suddenly panicked, "I’ve told you everything I know, and I’ve signed the agreement, you can’t go back on your word!"

At hearing this, Yan Ling turned around, disdainfully responded, "I’m not you. I wouldn’t stoop so low as to harm a child."

Truthfully, she had doctored that photograph. Yan Ling had never even met Li Yong’s son.

When her senior brother had helped her uncover that Li Yong had an illegitimate son, he asked if she wanted to expose this secret.

She refused.

Even if Li Yong was the scum of the earth, the child was still innocent!

If she had used the child as a pawn simply to vent her anger, then how would she have been any different from Li Yong?

"I won’t tell An Qiuyue about the existence of the child. However, if she discovers it on her own one day, you can’t blame me!"

Having said that, she did not turn around, no matter how much Li Yong yelled from behind her.

Having entered the National Security Department, Li Yong likely wouldn’t be able to leave for the rest of his life!

Though she couldn’t avenge her mother with her own hands, making Li Yong spend the rest of his life in a place devoid of sunlight would be somewhat comforting to her mother’s spirit.

As for her children, as long as they were alive, even if they were taken to the farthest corner of the world, even if she had no clues about them, she would find a way to dig them out, even if it required moving heaven and earth!

But...

She hoped that her children would suffer as little as possible until she found them.

Even if they called someone else "mother" and "father," that was okay.

Even if they hated her, that was okay.

As long as they were happy, that was all that mattered...
