Son reunited with mother after a quarter century

Twenty-seven-year-old Liu Jinxin recently discovered that the woman he thought to be his mother had confessed to abducting him from a family she used to work for as a nanny.

The former nanny, He Xiaoping, 48, from Nanchong, Sichuan province, admitted the kidnapping to local authorities in August.

But last week, when Liu met his biological mother in Chongqing - as verified by DNA tests - it brought confusion along with the expected joy.
