"Niannian, after mom's death, you can go to find your child..."

On the hospital bed, Mrs. Shen, who was seriously ill, said with a pale face, "This time... I won't stop you anymore."

Her breath was low, and the illness tortured her once beautiful face to a terrible extent. Her ever proud eyes reflected the crying look of her daughter.

Seeing such a pitiful daughter, she felt as if her heart had been cut by a knife. She regretted it so much.

She was the one who had caused her daughter to become like this.

People were always like that. Only when it was a matter of life and death would they be willing to admit their mistakes.

"Mom, I won't look for my child anymore. I only want you to continue to accompany me..." Shen Niannian stood by the bed, raising her hand to wipe away her tears. She wanted to force a smile, but there was nothing to do.

She knew that her mother did not have much time left.

Six years ago, her mother was found to have cancer. Soon after, her father passed away suddenly, leaving her and her mother dependent on each other. Since then, they had suffered much.

Although that child was her biological baby, she had no feelings. The only person in the world who had a real and visible family bond with her was her mother. If her mother left, Shen Niannian really did not know how she would live in the future.

"Niannian, I... am going to die." Mrs. Shen held Niannian's hand so hard that her joints turned white, but her strength was very weak.

It was like an hourglass that was losing sand.

"No... no, you won't die!" Niannian shook her head crazily, but she knew that she was just deceiving herself.

Even so, she still wanted to lie to herself. Her mother was fine.

"Niannian, go to find the child, go to find the child's father..." Mrs. Shen patted her hand gently and urged with the last bit of strength, "The child's father is called Ning Chuqing. You must remember... never use your real appearance... to see him."

"Mom? Mom!!" Shen Niannian did not expect that these were the last words that her mother had left to her.

Six years ago, her mother found out that she had cancer; since then, she had used makeup to cover up Niannian's true face. She had hidden it for six years.

At first, Shen Niannian asked her mother why she did this, but her mother did not answer. Then she even deliberately took off her makeup in order to resist, but once she was found out by her mother, she would be scolded.

Gradually, Shen Niannian did not dare to be curious anymore. But at this moment, even when her mother was going to pass away, she still remembered not to let her daughter reveal her true face.

So, this was probably really an important thing. Shen Niannian was crying, holding her mother's hand with some warmth remaining. She nodded heavily. "Mom, don't worry, I won't do anything you don't let me do!"

Two weeks later, in the Rose Garden Villa of Capital City.

Ning Chuqing rubbed the space between his eyebrows, closed the laptop, and opened the door of the study.

During this period, due to the company's foreign project, his workload was a little heavy, and he had not slept well for several days.

He dragged heavy steps to go out of the study and turned around to see a person following the nanny Madam Chen.

Madam Chen was a senior in the family. When Ning Chuqing was young, he was brought up by Madam Chen. And now, Ning Chengcheng was also brought up by Madam Chen. But after all, Madam Chen became old, and many things were beyond her capabilities, so he asked the butler to recruit a young nanny to help Madam Chen.

There were more than a dozen people who came to apply one by one before. However, they were either driven out by him or driven out by Ning Chengcheng. This time, this one... they didn't know how long it would last.

"Young master, this is the new nanny, Shen Niannian." Madam Chen led the person to Ning Chuqing's front.

Upon hearing the sound, Shen Niannian raised her head. Staring at the man, she felt so stunned.

Was this Ning Chuqing? The person with whom she gave birth to the child?

He was... too good-looking!

Shen Niannian had seen beautiful women, such as her mother, including her, who had inherited her mother's excellent genes.

But it was the first time for her to see such a handsome man.

All the edges and corners of his face were just right and sharp, and there were dark ripples in the deep eyes. Although he looked a little gaunt, it was not unkempt but exuded a kind of delicate charm.

Shen Niannian felt that her swollen eyes, which had been crying for the past few days, were treated with the highest treatment in an instant.

Looking at the new nanny who kept her eyes fixed on her, Ning Chuqing couldn't help frowning. When he opened his mouth, his tone was already as cold as a thousand years of ice. "Have you seen enough?"
