She was just a child when Chen Murong came to take her back to the city. Chen Mumu remembered how he looked—haggard, his eyes listless, and his body appearing as if he had been beaten black and blue.
Yet, when he saw Chen Mumu, a soft smile appeared on his lips.
Chen Mumu was already used to her father leaving and coming back whenever he wanted, and hearing he was coming were always the happiest days of her life. When he arrived, he had a tense discussion with her mother while she was asked to stay in the bedroom, but even there, she could still hear her mother shouting.
After an hour, she was asked to come out, and the next day Chen Murong took her in his car and brought her back to the city. Chen Mumu was excited because she thought she would get to spend a lot of time with her father. But once she arrived, not everything was as good as she had imagined.
She quickly realized that her father had another wife, and that wife also had a child.
