“Tsk.” Mo Lian leaned back in disgust and waved her hand as if she was chasing away a beggar. “Fatherwill not see you. Don’t disturb the peace in my house. Get lost!”

Mo Yan clenched her fists and stared at her. She said word by word, “Father promised to give me adowry. I will take the dowry and leave.”

Hearing this, Mo Lian scoffed. She flicked her carefully permed hair and crossed her legs. She narrowedher eyes and said, “You’re married to such a pauper and you still want a dowry? The audacity you have.”

As she said this, Mo Lian pinched her nose and said in disdain, “You’re so poor and dirty, I’m afraid thatyou’ll dirty my house!”

Being ridiculed by her stepsister, Mo Yan gritted her teeth and glared at her.

At this moment, the chickens and ducks in the bamboo basket began to chirp. Mo Lian stretched herhead out to take a look, and immediately laughed out loud. “As expected of your husband who stealschickens and dogs and is a local ruffian and hoodlum. Are you already reduced to a situation where youhave to raise chickens to live? How pitiful. Oh right, is my brother-in-law unable to find a job after he gotout of prison? How about this, I’ll get father to find him a job as a garbage truck and street sweeper sothat you won’t have to work hard, alright?”

“If you think that that’s a good job, then leave it for your future husband!”

Mo Yan’s eyes were red with anger. She tightened her body and took a step forward. She said sternly,“I’m too lazy to bicker with people like you. Since I got married in your place, I only want to get the

500,000 yuan dowry that I was promised!”

“How dare you scold me!” Mo Lian’s face suddenly changed. She glared and reached out her hand toslap Mo Yan.

Mo Yan reacted quickly and grabbed her wrist that was raised high up. She tightened her grip andberated, “Where is father? I want to see him!”

At this moment, Mo Yan was only thinking about the 500,000 yuan that could be used to pay for hermother’s surgery and save her life. All her dignity and rationality was the last things she cared about. MoYan, who did not care about anything else, frightened Mo Lian.

Mo Lian was stunned for a while before she tried her best to shake off Mo Yan’s grip. She panted andsaid, “Father is not at home. I said he won’t see you.”

“What?” Mo Yan frowned and looked at her in disbelief.

Mo Lian quickly got up and was about to walk upstairs. As she walked, she said, “Father doesn’t careabout you at all! He has already forgotten about you as his daughter. As for your dowry, it’s gone!”

“Stop right there!” Mo Yan tugged at Mo Lian’s clothes and questioned, “What do you mean the dowry isgone?”

Looking at Mo Yan’s almost broken expression, Mo Lian laughed out loud again. She looked at Mo Yanproudly and happily, and said viciously, “Father never thought of giving you the dowry. He was just lying.From the beginning to the end, father only cared about me, his only daughter!”

Seeing Mo Yan’s face turn pale, Mo Lian added on, “Father left yesterday to discuss business elsewhere.He doesn’t want to see you and won’t see you. Stop dreaming. Hurry up and sell your organs to raisemoney for your mother! Any later and your mother is going to die!”

With that, Mo Yan lost all hope. She staggered a few steps and looked helplessly at the luxurious floor ofthe Mo family house. Large drops of tears fell down.

What should she do? What should she do? Without this 500,000 yuan, she would not be able to pay forher mother’s medical fees, and her mother would not be able to get treated. Also, her younger brotherwould not be able to continue his studies. Where exactly could she get 500,000 yuan…

Mo Yan had already forgotten how she had walked out of the Mo family’s house in a muddle-headedmanner. The bamboo baskets containing the chickens and ducks were also thrown out, and the dozen orso little ones inside instantly lost their voices. novelbin

She did not even dare to go to the hospital to visit her mother. She was afraid to see her mother’sdespairing and haggard eyes. She did not dare to say that she had been cheated by her stepmother andfather into marrying someone else, and that she had lost the life-saving money that belonged to her.

When she reached the bus stop aimlessly, she was blocked by a tall figure.

She looked up and saw a man wearing a black mask. His eyes were solemn and his brows were tightlyknitted. It was Luo Tao.

After receiving a message from his assistant, Luo Tao ignored his assistant’s advice to not go as he

could end up exposing his identity. He anxiously boarded the village bus and arrived in the city.

After picking Mo Yan up, Luo Tao did not ask any questions. He held the dispirited Mo Yan in his armsand boarded the bus back to the small village together..
