One Child Two Treasures: The Billionaire Chief’s Good Wife Chapter 498

She hurriedly struggled loose of the car and dragged her brother out . The car then burned down completely .

She pa.s.sed out from her dire injuries right after .

She regained consciousness to a few minor injuries and to her younger brother missing .

Her mother was eventually p.r.o.nounced dead .

With the coroner's report in one hand and her broken arm in the other, she watched her mother be pushed to the cold morgue . She followed woodenly behind without shedding a single tear .

She seemed to forget how to cry .

Her mother did not have any friends when she was alive, so her funeral was hastily arranged by a few good Samaritans who had taken pity on her .

She forgot how she had endured through the subsequent month in a hospital .

Her heart had turned numb at that point . Still, she only fully realized that she would be alone from then onward on the day of her hospital discharge .

Other than a piece of jade, she had nothing of her mother .

She recalled her mother carrying the jade with her at all times and never keeping it away .

She did not mention a word of her past to her daughter, though .

She did recall how much her mother had hated her father and grandfather's origin . Still, even though not much was spoken about them, she knew that they were rich people .

She also remembered her mother holding a deep-seated grudge against a man named Mu Sheng to the point of calling him a cruel butcher .

While her mother did mention the Mu family, the number of times could be counted with one hand .

She kept mum about the two siblings' father, however .

Since she did not have any relatives, after some paperwork, she was sent to a private orphanage .

The place ended up becoming her lifelong nightmare .

That was probably the darkest period of her life, and because she never wanted to revisit that past, she was subjected to a selective memory loss . The memory of that place had turned hazy .

This was until Mu Wanrou's 'a s.l.u.t is always a s.l.u.t – born to be vile' retort brought back her memories of the forgotten past . Finally, she could recall a girl who used to curse her with those exact words back then .

After she had reached the orphanage, she was quickly a.s.signed to a room .

The room of about 20 square meters was considered crowded with 16 children occupying eight double decks in it .

A pretty girl called Rou'er was sharing a bed with her . Just like the rest, this girl yearned to be adopted by a rich family .

Different from the other children, she recalled this girl always looking beautiful and outstanding . She was often decked in pretty frocks and was frequently holding candies and snacks . Her mannerism was akin to a highly regarded, pampered princess .

The orphanage director and teachers doted on her, and she even had a huge following among the children .

She was like a fairy the way she was showered with love and affection .

Back then, Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was still agonizing over the loss of her mother . Her reclusive and autistic behavior repelled the rest . No one liked to play or be with her .

That girl was the first to reach out to her . When she was feeling helpless and hopeless, the little girl gave her a sweet and said, “My name is Rou'er; what is yours? Let's be good friends!”

She was sincerely grateful to the girl . Sweet and kind-hearted, she was just like an angel to her .
