Twenty-five years ago, the surroundings of the orphanage weren’t installed with close-circuit monitoring devices the way the now were .
It would have been really hard to find the identity of the person who abandoned a baby, especially if the baby had been abandoned without any eyewitnesses around .
The difficulty of such an undertaking was indescribable . Yet, Ou Ming had managed to do it .
“Yeah . I found her . ” Ou Ming reached out and gently stroked her cheek, “She’s getting along very well . ”
“Is she the woman who gave birth to me?” Yu Lili asked .

In other words, was it her mother? Was that her mommy?
The word “mommy” and the idea of a “mom” had always been beyond reach for Yu Lili . Throughout her entire life, she had never uttered those words . She had thought that that person was long dead . Now, Ou Ming had managed to find her .
He could obviously tell the emotional effect the news had on Yu Lili . He stroked her head gently with his huge hand and said, “Yes . However, she is not your mother . ”
“How can that be? Since she gave birth to me, if she isn’t my mother? Who is she?” Yu Lili was a little emotional, so her voice rose .
“Shhh . ” Ou Ming pointed toward the taxi driver . “Don’t get worked up . Let me explain it to you . ”

“Go ahead!” Although that’s what Yu Lili said, it was clear that she wasn’t calm at all . She held on tightly to Ou Ming hand with both hands, revealing how nervous she was really feeling .
“She was the woman who gave birth to you, but she isn’t your biological mother . She has no blood relation to you whatsoever,” Ou Ming said .
“What do you mean?” Yu Lili couldn’t comprehend the situation . “How was is that possible…”
“She was a surrogate mother . Years ago, she gave birth to you on behalf of someone else . In other words, she had only lent her womb to your biological mother and was helping your mother give birth to you,” Ou Ming said .
“Surrogacy? Isn’t that illegal?” Yu Lili asked .

“It wasn’t back then . ” Ou Ming tapped her on her forehead . “As for the details of what exactly happened, that woman refused to say . She wants you to meet her personally . ”
“She wants me to meet her? Where is she now?” Yu Lili asked .
“In F County . She is now the mother of two children who are both older than you . You were her last child . Years back, after giving birth to you, your biological mother didn’t come for you . Given the woman’s situation then, she couldn’t afford to care for a newborn baby who wasn’t even a month old . ” Ou Ming combed through her hair with his hand . “Winter was very cold that year . Furthermore, F County was only a small village . There were originally three children, but one froze to death . ”
So, that was why she had been abandoned? In the year that she had been born, it had indeed been a very harsh winter .
Yu Lili had survived the heaviest snowfall that the village had seen in many years .
“What about my biological father? Where are they?” Yu Lili could identify the emotions that were coursing through her . She felt pain, sadness, and a little hope .
What was she hoping for? It had been so many years . Throughout all these years, her biological parents had never appeared, brought her up, or fed her a sip of milk .
She had grown up all on her own . What difference did it now make whether or not they showed up?
Yet, here she was, still hoping for them . She hoped for parents . She hoped to be like others and have parents who could spoil her, love her, and give her a family . She didn’t want to remain so pitiful .
