Mo Tiesheng was indeed in a predicament, but after glancing at the $10,000 in cash beside Lin Qi, he finally agreed reluctantly!
"Fine! I'll take you there."
Lili's biological family was in the neighboring county, just an hour's drive away.
On the way, Mo Tiesheng sat in the car, it being the first time he ever saw such a luxurious vehicle. He looked at the leather seats beneath him, then at the starlight headliner above, his face visibly uncomfortable.
Lin Qi asked him some questions about Lili's birth mother.
Mo Tiesheng said, "I don't remember much about her, just that she had two daughters, her husband's family didn't want them, planned on giving the kids away, aiming for a third child, stopping only with the birth of a son. No idea if they actually had one. Lili is the second child; she has an older sister."
Lin Qi asked with a frown, "Why insist on having a son? Aren't daughters good?"
Mo Tiesheng asked, "Have you had children?"
Lin Qi paused, "Um."
