But suddenly, she heard a thunderous explosion-like sound of a fist not far away, startling her. She remembered that Chen Kuang had pushed her away, but he had stayed there!
And... Xiaolianmi.
Once Liu Qingcheng realized this, her heart ached painfully, and her breath almost stopped.
In this Xuni Pavilion, Lianmi was her closest family.
When she was sixteen and just starting out, she chose Lianmi, who had just been sold into the brothel by her adoptive parents, as her maid.
At that time, Lianmi looked only about five or six years old, and because of malnutrition, appeared even smaller. She was covered in dirt like a little stray cat by the roadside.
Liu Qingcheng knew that the so-called adoptive parents were probably human traffickers, but Xuni Pavilion generally didn't take in children of unknown origins, so they pretended to be adoptive parents.
If she couldn't be sold in the brothel, the place she would be sold to afterwards would be even worse.
