Chapter 389 - 391: Biological Parents_1
"Okay." Li Qiao saw Mrs. Tao out.
Mrs. Tao still couldn’t quite grasp what had happened, this being the first time she’d encountered such a situation.
Li Qiao returned inside.
Zhuang Shu lay beside the crib, fast asleep, her hand clutching the sleeve of the baby’s clothes as if afraid the child would go missing again.
Li Qiao looked at the scene before her and could only feel it surreal—the child’s mother had appeared too coincidentally.
Ever since she had come to Beijing, she had never been to that park. Yet today, the moment she went, she ran into the child’s biological mother, and Qin Jin had also shown up, wasn’t he supposed to be busy expanding his business recently?
Li Qiao left the room to the woman and went next door to read and pass the time.
Her mind was still preoccupied with the matter, feeling something was off, like being manipulated, and she was uncomfortable inside, empty and desolate, even though it was a happy occasion that the child had found her birth mother.
About two hours later, the sound of the child’s crying reached her, so she put down her book and walked to the next room.
Zhuang Shu had already picked up the child to comfort her: "She’s probably hungry again. Babies need to be fed every couple of hours."
Li Qiao busied herself making formula while Zhuang Shu took the opportunity to scrutinize her, a girl of around eighteen or nineteen, delicate features, fair-skinned, and focused and efficient in her movements. Truly beautiful, more so than any other girl she had seen. "Why did you want to adopt a child at the time?"
