Is This Your Son
"Cai Wei!" Su Li called out anxiously.
Wu Caiwei snatched the stone from Su Li and pressed it against her cheek, crying out to Su Shimao, "I’ll cut my own face, so you have to release my son!"
Su Shimao looked at Wu Caiwei with wild eyes and laughed crazily, "Hahaha, would you really dare to ruin that beautiful face of yours? Haha, I don't believe it! Fine, if you dare to scar your face, then I'll release your son!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Caiwei steeled herself immediately. She dragged the sharp edge of the stone across her face, but Lingdang was quick and caught her wrist, blocking her.
Wu Caiwei sobbed, "Don’t stop me, I have to save my son..."
"Cai Wei, are you crazy? Do you really think Su Shimao will release your son just because you ruin your own face?" Su Li said anxiously.
Wu Caiwei cried with tears streaming down, "I have no choice. I’m a mother, my son is my life! I’d risk everything to save him... Don’t ask me to ruin my face, even my life—I’m willing, as long as my son is safe!"
Su Shimao glared at Wu Caiwei and spat, "Stop pretending to be so pitiful, just like my mother! Always talking about loving her son, but where’s the love? No money, no luxurious life—useless trash!"
Su Shimao thought of Zhao Shi with deep resentment. Xiao Zetian had been closely watching Su Shimao’s movements but hadn’t found an opportunity to act. Taking advantage of Su Li distracting Su Shimao, Xiao Zetian quietly moved closer.
Just as Su Shimao finished mentioning Zhao Shi, Zhao Shi’s voice suddenly rang out.
Two shadow guards from the Xiao family escorted Zhao Shi and Liu Ru up. Seeing Su Shimao standing at the cliff edge pretending to throw the child, Zhao Shi’s face turned ashen with fright. She shouted loudly, "Shimao, come here quickly! What if he falls? Hey, give me the child! That’s your son!"
Liu Ru, seeing her son dangling at the cliff’s edge, was frantic and shouted, "Su Shimao, that’s your son! What are you doing?"
Su Shimao was stunned for a moment, murmuring, "What? This is my son? How is that possible?"
Even Su Li and Wu Caiwei were stunned. What was going on?
Liu Ru hurriedly explained, "Su Shimao, I originally planned to switch our son with Zhang Mu’s son so our boy could live a wealthy young master’s life. But as soon as the swap happened, the child was stolen! The one you have now isn’t Zhang Mu and Wu Caiwei’s son—it’s our biological son!"
At Liu Ru’s words, everyone was stunned.
Su Li was stunned at first, then delighted. So this means Clown Chou was safe!?
Wu Caiwei was also stunned. She grabbed Liu Ru’s hand anxiously, "Is what you said true? You swapped the children, so my son is now with your family? The one Su Shimao has is actually your son?"
Liu Ru said urgently, "Yes! Otherwise, why would my mother-in-law and I rush here in such a panic? If it wasn’t our child, why would we care so much? When we heard Su Shimao ran off with the child at the foot of the mountain, we feared something happened and begged them to take us up. Su Shimao, even a tiger won’t eat its own cub. That’s your only son. If anything happens to him, your family line ends!"
Wu Caiwei finally believed it and relaxed completely, collapsing weakly to the ground before quickly getting up and heading down the mountain, "I’m going back to the village to find my son!"
