Qiao Nian looked down at Xiao Shi and patted her head. She bent down and picked her up, gently stroking her back.
"Mommy!"
Xiao Shi's gentle voice entered her ears.
"Hm?"
"Let's go home!"
Xiao Shi's voice sounded exceptionally happy. Qiao Nian couldn't help but feel happy. She carried Xiao Shi and spun her around twice before stopping. "Alright, let's go home!"
"Who are you? Give me my great-granddaughter back!" An old woman with white hair and a face full of wrinkles walked over in a hurry, stepping forward to snatch Xiao Shi.
Qiao Nian immediately put Xiao Shi down and shielded her behind her. Only then did she notice that the old lady was alone.
"Madam, are you mistaken? This is my daughter, not your great-granddaughter!" With that, Qiao Nian was about to leave with the two children when the old woman's words made her stop involuntarily.
