Yang Li stared at Song Ning, watching for her reaction.
Song Ning looked at the photo again. To be precise, she was looking at the woman standing next to Mu Chen. It was as Yang Li had said, she had never smiled in this manner before. A vague idea appeared in her mind before she looked at Yang Li and asked in a trembling voice, “Ye Xin?”
Yang Li nodded. “Ning Xia, if you hadn’t been by Xiao Peng and my side, we would’ve thought the person in the picture is you. To be honest, even I doubted myself when I saw this photo.”
Although Song Ning and Ye Xin resembled each other before, it was not to this extent.
Song Ning was still shocked. “She… She had plastic surgery?”
Yang Li nodded. “Obviously.”
“Why? Why would she make herself look like me?” Song Ning’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Yang Li stared at Song Ning as she slowly said, “To replace you.”
Song Ning was speechless. She felt an emptiness in her heart at this moment. ‘Mu Chen, can’t you tell that person next to you isn’t Song Ning? Jiahui, what about you?’
Song Ning felt a stabbing pain in her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe. She instinctively curled up.
“Ning Xia, you promise me you won’t get agitated. You need to calm down. Calm down!” Yang Li hurriedly said when she saw Song Ning’s reaction. She anxiously held Song Ning’s hand to calm Song Ning down.
Song Ning gasped for breath as tears rolled down her face continuously. Her brain felt like mush, and her ears were ringing. The excruciating pain was intolerable.
“Ning Xia! Listen to me carefully. You have to accept this fact. Only by accepting it will you be able to face it and do something about it,” Yang Li said each word slowly.
Song Ning continued to sob uncontrollably.
Yang Li pointed at the photo on her phone and said, “Ning Xia, think about it calmly. Ye Xin would need time to complete the plastic surgery. She was supposed to be in the mental hospital. When and how did she get out?”
“She changed her appearance to look like you so that she could enter the Mu family and replace you. Leaving you to die in the hospital isn’t something she can come up with alone. With her brain capacity, there’s no way she could’ve come up with this elaborate plan alone. What’s the purpose of the person who’s pulling the strings behind the scene? Who is it that helped Ye Xin to fulfill her wish of becoming Mrs. Mu?”
Upon hearing these words, Song Ning’s sobs died down. She looked at Yang Li with tears in her eyes.
Yang Li sighed in relief before she said in a low voice, “Ning Xia, I’m afraid this is an elaborate plot. However, we don’t know who’s the mastermind for now. What’s the use of crying now? Your son and your husband are in danger now. Are you going to sit back and watch?”
Yang Li’s words sobered Song Ning up. She took the piece of tissue Yang Li handed her and wiped her tears away before she picked up the phone and looked at the photo again. After a moment, she closed her eyes.
Yang Li looked at Song Ning, perplexed, wondering what Song Ning was doing.
At the same time, scenes of her daily life flashed in Song Ning’s mind. After a while, she asked, “Sister Li, is this the only photo?”
Although Yang Li did not understand Song Ning’s purpose, she picked up her phone and swiped it a few times before showing them to Song Ning. “There aren’t many photos. We only have about five or six photos. Xiao Peng downloaded them from the Internet. After all, Mu Chen doesn’t like appearing in the media..”
