Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder!-Chapter 173 - 3: The Real and Fake Heiress (Part 3)

Chapter 173: Chapter 3: The Real and Fake Heiress (Part 3)

Li Shuning opened her eyes, feeling a bit heavy inside.

How shameless is Li Yu, to harm others for her own daughter?

Here she is enjoying the favors of others; back then, if not for Li Qiong and Zhang Minrong, she might have ended up on the streets, not even knowing if the child could be born. Yet here she is swapping the child of others, here she vows to treat others’ children well, and even here, leaving a hungry child crying for food.

She has come into this body that is barely over one year old, what does she know? If she wanders around or pulls at things randomly, she might fall or even get electrocuted.

And as for Li Yu, she went to take care of Li Qinglan. One must know that the Li Family specifically hired a maternity nanny. Maybe subconsciously, she wanted Li Shuning to fend for herself?

Li Shuning moved her little hand, feeling helpless, unexpectedly becoming a baby, and a hungry baby at that, truly speechless.

In her Qiankun Ring, there’s everything, but no milk powder.

And a baby a little over one year old can only eat some supplementary food.

Although she has a mature soul, this body is still a baby, and while the Qiankun Ring contains quite a bit of food, it’s all inedible for her.

Li Shuning felt somewhat frustrated, the feeling of hunger is really unpleasant.

In the story, Li Shuning was so alone that she only learned to speak after she was three years old.

Did not Li Yu dislike her going to the front yard? Did not she not want Zhang Minrong to see her?

Li Shuning showed a smile.

She leaned against the wall, trying to stand up, but wobbled and couldn’t stand.

Fortunately, she was wearing two pairs of pants at the time.

The path leading to the front yard was a mud road here.

Looking at the clock on the wall, it was about time.

Li Shuning crawled out on her hands and feet.

Such a posture, indeed somewhat embarrassing.

When Li Qiong got out of the car, he saw a small child on the garden path crawling on hands and feet, grinning as she crawled over.

For some reason, Li Qiong’s heart softened.

Involuntarily, Li Qiong stepped forward, picked up Li Shuning, wiped the mud off her little face, completely ignoring that his pristine suit was getting dirty.

Li Shuning gave Li Qiong a big smile, showing only four teeth, looking unbearably cute when she grinned.

However, clearly smaller than Li Qinglan, Li Shuning made Li Qiong inexplicably feel a bit of heartache.

Li Shuning suddenly hugged Li Qiong’s neck and rubbed her face against his, smiling contentedly.

Li Qiong sighed, holding Li Shuning, and went inside the house.

Upon entering the room, they saw Li Yu holding Li Qinglan, coaxing her.

And Zhang Minrong, sitting aside, watching the two with a smile.

Despite not having a close bond with children, since this was her child, Zhang Minrong still wished for her child to live comfortably.

Seeing her husband walk in with a child, this child covered in mud, unexplainably, Zhang Minrong felt a sense of pity.

Suppressing this feeling, Zhang Minrong forced a smile and said, "Brother Qiong, this child?"

"Xiao Li, when I came back today, I saw this child crawling over from the backyard, covered in mud, she’s just a little baby. You’ve been with Qinglan all day, neglecting Shuning, that’s not right either. Besides, look at how skinny Shuning has become. She knows nothing, what if she gets hurt, what would you do?"

Li Yu felt a bit panicked, she couldn’t understand how the usually obedient Li Shuning suddenly crawled out.

She shook her head and said, "No way, no way, Shuning is very obedient, very well-behaved, she always stays at home alone, there’s no danger. I voluntarily took care of Miss Qinglan."

But suddenly, Li Shuning burst into tears, crying while shouting, "Hungry, hungry, hungry."

Li Qiong was shocked, and even Zhang Minrong was a bit surprised. Thinking about it, she realized that all morning Li Yu was indeed here with Qinglan.

Zhang Minrong looked at Li Yu with disbelief; how could she feel at ease leaving such a small child alone?

Li Yu felt a bit flustered, trying to feed Li Shuning, but half an hour ago all the breast milk had been given to Li Qinglan.

Li Yu felt a bit embarrassed, as she had nothing to feed Li Shuning at the moment.

Li Qiong immediately called the driver Xiao Wang, telling him to quickly go to a nearby supermarket to buy some good milk powder and bottles.

No matter what, the fact that Li Qinglan drank Li Shuning’s food supply was undeniable.

Zhang Minrong called the maternity nanny to bring over some clothes from Qinglan’s, and gave Li Shuning a wash and change of clothes.

At that moment, Li Qinglan suddenly started crying; Li Yu found out that Li Qinglan had pooped.

Li Yu carried Li Qinglan away to clean her up.

Li Shuning’s hands, which had been clinging to Li Qiong’s neck, suddenly opened and reached for Zhang Minrong.

Zhang Minrong, originally standing next to Li Qiong, caught Li Shuning in her arms.

When she had contact with Qinglan, Zhang Minrong always felt it was a bit odd and uncomfortable, but inexplicably, holding this child now, she felt an exceptional warmth and satisfaction.

What was going on?

When Li Yu came back holding Li Qinglan, she saw Li Shuning playing with Li Qiong and Zhang Minrong, looking as if they were a real family.

Yes, they were supposed to be a family.

No, it couldn’t be like this, Li Yu panicked. She knew that ordinarily, Zhang Minrong wasn’t fond of holding children, yet now she was holding Li Shuning, it shouldn’t be like this.

Li Yu hurriedly smiled and said, "Really troublesome Brother Li and Sister Zhang, Miss has already been cleaned, I’ll take Shuning back with me first."

Saying that, Li Yu handed the child to Li Qiong, and Li Qiong took her.

Li Yu wanted to take back Li Shuning, but Li Shuning was very obedient, not fussy at all, just smiling at Zhang Minrong.

But Zhang Minrong was a bit reluctant to let go.

After thinking for a moment, she said, "Xiao Yu, let’s wait a bit. I know you’ve taken good care of Qinglan during this time, but Shuning is your child. Seeing her so hungry, I feel guilty too. How about we wait until Xiao Wang comes back and feeds her some milk powder first?"

Li Yu really wanted to refuse, but she didn’t dare. If she refused, would Brother Li and Sister Zhang find it odd?

It didn’t take long for Xiao Wang to return.

The nanny immediately sterilized the bottle and made some milk powder.

Li Shuning, although reluctant to drink from a bottle, couldn’t help it and drank eagerly holding the bottle.

Whether she was too hungry or just had a big appetite, the 120 ml of milk powder was gone in no time.

Yet Li Shuning still didn’t feel full, still hungry.

Seeing Zhang Minrong wanting to take away the bottle, Li Shuning looked at her with teary eyes, melting Zhang Minrong’s heart.

"Little baby, do you want more?"

Li Shuning quickly nodded vigorously, "Yes."

Zhang Minrong felt somewhat distressed, "Be a good baby, you haven’t drunk milk powder before, and you’re hungry. Drink this now, and after an hour we’ll give you more, okay?"

Li Shuning’s dark eyes firmly looked at Zhang Minrong, then she grinned and handed over the bottle to Zhang Minrong.
