The world is really too small.

When I went to the parent-teacher meeting for my daughter, Li Hui's former roommate recognized me and told Li Hui the address of our daughter's school.

Li Hui and her father appeared at our daughter's school gate.

The moment Li Hui saw me, her face was full of hatred.

"Fang Ran, just because Qiqi bit our daughter, you hid her from me for so many years and didn't let me see her!"

It was dismissal time, and the school gate was crowded with parents, countless curious eyes looking at us.

Among them were the parents of Mengmeng's classmates.

I went to great lengths to prevent that experience from affecting Mengmeng's growth, but Li Hui couldn't wait for the whole world to know.

"Let's talk privately, don't embarrass yourself here."

Li Hui shouted loudly, "Embarrassing? You tell me how it's embarrassing! My husband and child have been missing for so many years, can't I ask about it?"

"Why did I take the child away, don't you have any idea! I'm asking you, how did you deal with that dog!"

"If I didn't take the child away, would you let the dog bite my daughter!"

Li Hui was hysterical, and her father couldn't stop her even though he tried.

"Just a bite from a dog! It didn't even kill her! You're being overly dramatic! Is this trivial matter worth holding onto?"

I really thought Li Hui was crazy, wishing I could slap her to death.

"Dad..."

My daughter didn't know when she stood behind me.

Li Hui's eyes lit up, rushing to her daughter's side.

"Mengmeng! I'm your mom!"

"You've grown so big!"

Li Hui cried and laughed, hugging her daughter and not letting go.

The surrounding parents, after picking up their children, refused to leave, crowding around to watch the commotion.

My daughter looked panicked and lost, calling for dad and seeking my help.

I pushed Li Hui away, picked up my daughter, and squeezed out of the crowd.

Back home, I still told my daughter everything, how she got injured, how I took her abroad for scar treatment.

"Mengmeng, you've grown up. Dad has decided to divorce your mom, you can choose who you want to live with, Dad will respect your decision."

Mengmeng lowered her head, "Dad, I want to live with you, but... Mom is crying and looks so pitiful..."

"As long as you protect yourself, you can go see Mom. Even though Dad and Mom are divorcing, she is still your mom."

The daughter nodded.
