Thurriedly got up and stopped Anna, then said to her, “Sister Anna, I wanted to do this myself. I don’t want to be a person who only knows how to eat. I want to help my mother.”

Anna looked at me with a complicated expression and said, “Hai, poor child, you’re really sensible. Don’t blame your mother for throwing you into Instructor Liu’s house for so many years. She also has her reasons, but I’m certain that your mother still loves you very much.”

I felt that Anna seemed to know a lot about my mother. Then, I couldn’t help but want to ask about my mother. I asked, “Sister Anna, what’s my mother’s attitude towards me? Why do I feel that she’s sometimes nice to me but mean to me at other times?”

“Hmm? Do you want to hear it?”

Anna smiled slyly.

“Yes.”

“Then let me come to your place to eat tonight. I’ll buy the vegetables and you’ll cook.” Anna wanted to exchange her information for a meal.

“Sister An, you’re so good to me. Not to mention tomorrow, I can even cook for you every single day in the future!”

Ireplied.

“You’re a kind person, but kind people are always bullied. Then, let me tell you about your mother’s attitude towards you. First of all, Ican tell you clearly that your mother loves you. Back then, she was really forced to throw you into Instructor Liu’s house. Because at that time, your mother entered the

lowest point of her life and used all her money to buy you back.”

“However, after sending you to Instructor Liu, your mother was unhappy every day and often asked me if she had done anything wrong. She was very regretful, but there was nothing she could do.

Later on, our lives slowly improved. Your mother wanted to ask you to come over, but Instructor Liu insisted and she gave up.

“However, every year on your birthday, your mother will prepare a birthday gift for you. It’s just that it can’t be sent over. You came at the right time this year. She just bought a phone that she wanted to give you, but she didn’t expect you to come.”

Hearing this, I couldn’t help but ask, “I thought this was a used phone Mother wanted to give you?”

“She did say that she wanted to give it to me, but it’s not something your mother used before. She just bought it a few days ago on your birthday.”

To be honest, I didn’t even know my own birthday. It was already good enough for me to have food when I was with that violent father. How could I celebrate my birthday? After that, I went to live in Instructor Liu’s house and it was even less likely for me to celebrate my birthday there. As time passed, I

forgot my birthday.

I didn’t expect my mom to remember everything so clearly. She even bought me gifts every year.

I thought to myself, “It turns out that other than Liu Tao, my mother is also good to me. It’s just that I never knew.”

Sister Anna cleared her throat and continued, “Also, that Instructor Liu came here to look for you last night, but your mother didn’t tell him, so he hit your mother. Then, that Instructor Liu came looking for you again today. Your mother chose to use money to resolve the matter. That’s why Instructor Liu

left. Your mother was afraid that you would encounter Instructor Liu, so she looked for you. Unexpectedly, you were missing from the house. She thought that Instructor Liu had forcefully taken you away and began to panic.

“Your mother is mean to you and even asks you to follow various rules. This is all because she wants to help protect you. She doesn’t want you to get into this line of business. Otherwise, you will become a replica of your mother. Therefore, you have to study hard and not disappoint her.”

Hearing this, I was already crying. Only then did I know that I had not been abandoned by my mother. My mother still loved me, but I had never known. At this moment, I realized the greatness of motherly love.

“Alright, stop crying, These are all things your mother doesn’t want me to say. She said that she doesn’t want you to feel like you owe her anything, She just wants you to finish school safely and work alone.”

When Anna saw me cry, she began to comfort me.

“Tll definitely get into university and help my mom get out of her misery. Also, when I have money in the future, you guys won’t have to do this anymore.”

I clenched my fists and said firmly.

“Alright, I’l wait for Little Shen Ling to bring me out of the sea of bitterness.”

I think Anna was also somewhat touched at this moment.

Although I was confident at this moment, it did not take me long to realize how deep the water in this industry was and how difficult it was to escape from the suffering.

After that, Anna stayed for the entire afternoon and did not leave until after dinner. After she left, I took out the high school textbook she brought me to buy in the afternoon and began to learn.

After all, the stupid bird flies first. I knew that I wasn’t stupid, but I still had to work harder than others because I knew if I wanted to rescue my mom, I needed to get into the best university and find the best job.

In the following days, I maintained a neutral lifestyle.

After work, I would go home and wash clothes for my mother and the sisters upstairs.. Then, I would eat.

As for the sister upstairs, I knew them because Anna had introduced them to me. She said that my mother was right for wanting me to stay away from this line of work. However, if I didn’t understand their industry at all, I might lose out in some areas in the future.

They all had tragic backgrounds. They would tell me about their experiences without holding back. This was also what Anna wanted me to learn. She said that she wanted me to learn from them so that I would not be deceived when I grew up.

Those sisters did not repel me and treated me very well. Some of them even bought me things from time to time. Among them, Anna was the most beautiful. Moreover, someone told me that Anna was also the most valuable here, so my mother was very good to her and even listened to her.

In their stories and knowledge, I came to learn about the evil of the human heart. However, at that time, I only felt confused. Those people were too much. Why did they have to treat a woman like that?

Tasked Anna why they liked me so much. She told me that perhaps it was because many people here were once as pure as me, but later, because of various reasons, they fell into this line of work and were unable to escape. This was why they liked me.

They even had a strong desire to protect me because they were once girls who were as pure as flowers.

My mother occasionally gave these people lessons. At that time, I thought that it was the same as the lessons I received at school and pestered Ann to bring me along.

My mother looked at me in surprise. However, being in front of so many people, she began the lesson without saying a word.

As I listened, I realized that this was not related to the things they taught you at school at all. Instead, the content was something I had never heard of. I did not know anything about the crystal, desert, or ice fire services they were talking about.

After class, Anna asked me if I understood. I said no.

Anna heaved a sigh of relief and then told me that even if my mother asked, I would still need to tell her that I didn’t understand. Otherwise, I would be beaten.

I looked at Anna in confusion. She left without explaining, making me confused.

The time I spent living there was just this calm. My break was finally coming to an end. I still had a week before I had to return to school.

Today was also the last day of my shift. I had expected this day to pass safely as usual.

However, a group of unwanted guests arrived at the restaurant today.
