327 Mysterious Man_1

The child's eyes were vacant, helpless, and pitiful, ceaselessly streaming with tears. An overdrawn wail incessantly came from her overly wide-open mouth. "Mommy... it hurts..."

Zhou Ziqing entirely ignored the child's painful plea, raised her hand, and struck the child's bottom. "Why did you turn out to be such a child? Why are you like this? If only you were like the child that woman bore, then he wouldn't have left me or you, do you understand?"

"Boo hoo..." The child shed tears from both fear and pain.

"Don't resent me for hitting you now. You should only blame your bad luck. You are a child that people despise. The fact that I am feeding you and keeping you alive, instead of leaving you in the wilderness to fend for yourself, already proves that I have a conscience." said Ziqing.

Zhou Ziqing finally stopped hitting the child when she became tired and then sat down at the side of the bed, crying out of anger.
