Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
‘Mu Qing personally opened the car door for Liang Zhou. It was rare for him to be so gentle. His voice was filled with delight as he said, “I didn’t expect you to get along with my mother so harmoniously. She even drank the tea you served her. This is a form of acknowledgment.”
Only when Mu Qing saw Liang Zhou’s lack of response did he realize her mood seemed to be a little low. He asked with a frown, ‘What’s wrong?”
Liang Zhou forced herself to perk up as she said, ‘I’m just a little tired.”
‘Mu Qing nodded. “You’ve been here since morning?”
‘Mu Qing had not been home for a long time and knew nothing about Liang Zhou’s daily activities or whereabouts.
Liang Zhou nodded nonchalantly and did not say anything else.
‘Mu Qing closed his eyes to rest. His mind was a mess. He had too many matters waiting for him to deal with. He needed to appease the relatives of the Mu family so he could only fork out some money to do so. The most important thing now was to find Ye Xin. He could not let others find Ye Xin first.
Moreover, Ye Xin might still have some uses left in her. Until the last moment, he could not let go of any chances.
All of a sudden, he opened his eyes and asked, “Liang Zhou, did Madam Ye look for you recently?”
Liang Zhou, who was lost in her thoughts, was slightly slow to respond. It was as though she did not know who Mu Qing was talking about. After a moment, she finally said, “Oh, Madam Ye. That’s right. She’s looking for her daughter. Before this, she said her daughter disappeared from the hospital and asked
for my help to look for her daughter. However, the baby and the Old Madam are my first priority, after all. I told her I couldn’t help her for the time being since I was busy helping the Old Madam. Moreover, I don’t want to get involved in her affairs. After all, her mental state is a little strange. One moment she
insisted that our Young Madam is Ye Xin, and the next moment she said Ye Xin is in the hospital. Tell me, which part of her words make sense?”
Liang Zhou sounded tired, and a hint of complaint could be heard in her voice.
‘Mu Qing gleaned many pieces of information from Liang Zhou’s words alone. His expression turned solemn immediately. Then, he asked, “Did Madam Ye say that Ye Xin was injured and in the hospital?”
Liang Zhou nodded. “Yes.”
“How did she get injured?” Mu Qing asked.
Liang Zhou looked at Mu Qing strangely. However, she still replied, “She said that Ye Xin had met with a car accident and was seriously injured. She said something about Ye Xin’s face being disfigured. Later, she told me Ye Xin went missing from the hospital. That’s when she asked me to help her search for
Ye Xin.” Then, as though she just recalled something, she said, ‘Ah, she told me to ask for help from Master, but I forgot. Ive been too forgetful recently. Mu Qing, why dont you help her look for her daughter? This concerns human life, after all.”
‘Mu Qing patted her shoulder lightly and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll get someone to look for her.”
Liang Zhou looked at Mu Qing happily when she heard his words.
On the contrary, the frown on Mu Qing’s face did not ease. He asked, ‘Why does she keep insisting that Ye Xin is Song Ning?”
Liang Zhou said in a hushed tone, ‘When she attended the previous banquet at the house, she took the opportunity to steal the Young Madam’ss hair for a DNA test. She thought that if Ye Xin was truly impersonating the Young Madam, she would bring the secret to her grave to protect her daughter’s
happiness. Like I said, her mental state is a little unstable. How pitiful. Mu Qing, you have to help her.”
‘Mu Qing recalled Ye Xin’s previous words and found that everything lined up. It seemed like Gao Wen was aware of everything. He thought that Gao Wen might be useful as well. When he returned, he would have to ask her in detail about what had happened…
