Chapter 1162: Attempting To Change the Heir (6)
To calm Huang Ying down, Eric said as gently as possible, “I want to know the entire story of how you bought that baby girl from the traffickers twenty years ago.”
Huang Ying raised her head, looking worriedly at Eric. “You really won’t try to harm me?”
It wasn’t Huang Ying’s fault that she was terrified. The laws about human trafficking were extremely strict these days, and the penalties for trafficking were very severe. Though she wasn’t actually a trafficker, she had contacted them and bought a baby from them.
When she bought the child, she didn’t ask about the child’s background. She simply wanted to make some profit by selling the baby at a high price. Also, she covered ger tracks carefully when she bought the baby. She never imagined someone would eventually find out.
She hadn’t heard about the issue in more than twenty years. Now that this nightmare had come back to her from the mouth of a total stranger, she was frightened. After all, human trafficking was an inexcusable sin.
“Really!” Eric said with a serious face. To give Huang Ying another reason to trust him, Eric reached out and took Xu Cheng’s hand. “You know about the relationship between Xu Cheng and me. You are Xu Cheng’s mother. Why would I do any harm to you?”
Xu Cheng’s cheeks turned red immediately when Eric suddenly took her hand. But internally, she was thrilled.
What did Eric mean by doing this? Was he saying that she was his girlfriend?
Xu Cheng wasn’t thinking rationally right now, as infatuation had taken control of her head. She was already stubborn and conceited. Now, she wasn’t even thinking straight, and she believed every word Eric said.
“Mom, trust Eric. He is a good person,” Xu Cheng said, backing Eric up.
Huang Ying gritted her teeth and told the story. “It was about twenty-seven, twenty-eight years ago. An old classmate who used to hang out with me contacted me and said she wanted to buy a baby. She asked if I could help. When she came to me, she was already pregnant. I wondered why she wanted to buy another child when she had one in her already. Then, after she gave birth, I learned that her child was deformed. It died shortly after being born.”
“At that time, she said she had to buy a baby, or she couldn’t return home. She offered a lot of money, and I was carried away by the temptation of all that wealth. You might not know, but my family really emphasized education. Therefore, we lived frugal lives. I had no job or money on hand. There were so many things that I wanted to buy that I couldn’t. So, when I laid eyes on the money, I really couldn’t say no.”
The waiter came up to refill their waters, and Huang Ying stopped talking until the man left. She sipped some water and continued. “I was only close to that girl when we were in school. We never contacted each other after we graduated. I just heard that she got married to someone rich. As for who her husband was, I didn’t know. When she came to me, I asked who her husband’s family was, but she wouldn’t say a word. I guessed that she was afraid her husband’s family might find out about her buying the baby. That’s why she wouldn’t tell me anything.”
“I was curious, but she refused to talk about it. There was nothing I could do. The money was what I thought was important. However, human trafficking was risky. I took her to my brother’s house in City H and let her give birth to her child there. Then I asked my brother to ask around, and he actually found a way. She wanted a boy, but boys were more expensive. She had only brought so much money with her, so if I paid the premium to get a boy, I thought I would make less money. I bought her a girl, and I told her that no baby boys had been available.”
