Tang Zhinian immediately dropped the farm tool he had been holding and ran inside. When he entered the house, he saw Sang Weilan standing stupidly aside, while his daughter Tang Yuxin’s tiny body was sprawled on the floor like a little ball, crying loudly.

“Xinxin...” Tang Zhinian’s eyes were almost red. He ran over, covering the distance in a few large steps, and quickly picked up his daughter. Tang Yuxin’s forehead had swollen up significantly and she was gasping amidst sobs.

“Don’t cry, don’t cry, Daddy’s here.”

As Tang Zhinian spoke, he couldn’t help but shed tears. He cherished his daughter like the apple of his eye, and had always been extremely careful with her. Even when Sang Zhilan insisted on working and left their baby with him, this man went from house to house, begging for milk, to raise her with sheep’s milk. He made sure that Tang Yuxin didn’t suffer or get hurt.

Tang Zhinian gently brushed his daughter’s small cheek, the rims of his eyes reddening as though he was about to cry.

“Daddy, don’t let mom take my clothes. She’s bad.” She rested her head on Tang Zhinian’s shoulder, her lowered eyelashes concealing the cold glint in her eyes.

Not a single item of hers would Wei Jiani get in this lifetime, not even a thread.

“Zhijun, gather the clothes and keep them. Don’t let them get stolen.”

Tang Zhinian carefully hugged his daughter and instructed his brother. In the past, he was worried that his daughter might choose to leave with Sang Zhilan. After all, she might still love her mother. If that was the case, no matter how heartbroken or reluctant he was, he would have let Sang Zhilan take her. But now, he realised that he was utterly wrong in his thoughts. Sang Zhilan was not fit to be a mother.

No, he was wrong again. Sang Zhilan was indeed a good mother, but she was not a good mother to Tang Yuxin.
