A Bad Dream

City S…

Li Yifeng stared at the number on the phone in disbelief. He dialed the number several times, but each time he got the same automated message: "The number you have dialed is not in service. Please check the number and try again." 

He wondered if he had made a mistake, or if the number had changed.Glancing at Zhang Mei, who was sitting on the couch watching their interview replayed on the news.

"Can you send me Li Na's number? I think I have the wrong one." He asked Zhang Mei.

Zhang Mei sneered as she turned to look at him. Her eyes were cold and contemptuous. "Why do you need that wretched girl's number?" She spat.

Li Yifeng frowned. "Mei, I don't appreciate you calling your daughter that. She's still our flesh and blood, no matter what."

"Ha! What daughter? She was nothing more than a mistake. I wish I had never given birth to her."
