Unfortunately, despite Mo Xuehong’s lengthy speech, Mu Beiting’s face showed no change. He remained as indifferent and heart-chilling as ever!

Seeing him still silent, Mo Xuehong continued, "Beiting, don’t you believe mom? I’m telling the truth! I truly realize my mistakes! Can you forgive me?" As she spoke, her eyes reddened, and tears flowed uncontrollably. Crying, she continued, "Twenty-five years ago, I indeed wasn’t a competent mother; I did too many things that let you down! But mom had her reasons back then. I was only twenty, unprepared psychologically to be a mother. I was indeed too selfish at that time, only thinking about myself! In these twenty-five years since you left, not a day passed without me thinking of you! Every time I close my eyes, your image appears in my mind! I admit that when I first returned, I couldn’t stand your cold attitude, and ******** was only concerned about Ye Anxin! So I felt hurt, jealous, and did many wrong things! I hope you can let bygones be bygones and forgive me, okay?"

Mo Xuehong bit her cheek, and even though she was so cold she couldn’t utter a complete sentence, she forced herself to endure the chill and stammered out every word Qin Muyao had taught her!

As soon as she finished speaking, her body almost collapsed from exhaustion, and she quickly opened her mouth wide to take deep breaths.

Ye Anxin stood next to Mu Beiting, watching Mo Xuehong’s mouth open and close, the feeling she had yesterday growing even stronger.

For some reason, she always felt that the Mo Xuehong in front of her now was insincere. Her actions seemed very deliberate, as if with a purpose!

No matter how genuine and sincere Mo Xuehong’s words were, Mu Beiting remained unmoved, his thin lips slowly parting to say just two words, "Get lost!"

"Beiting...!" Mo Xuehong looked at Mu Beiting incredulously. She couldn’t believe that after she had lowered herself so much, stripping away all her pride and dignity, he still showed no reaction, as if she were just an insignificant person!

She really hadn’t expected her biological son could become so cold-blooded one day!

When he was little, no matter what she did, whether she beat or scolded him, even tortured him, he never complained and still treated her as his mother! 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

She always thought that no matter how much Mu Beiting changed, he’d never escape her grasp and would still obey her unconditionally. Who would’ve thought... really who would’ve thought... he could be so cold and unfeeling to this extent!

"It’s cold outside, let’s go in!" Saying that, Mu Beiting took Ye Anxin’s hand, led her past Mo Xuehong, and walked into the Mu Group.

Having said all that Qin Mengyao taught her, Mo Xuehong didn’t know what else she could say! She could only watch helplessly as Mu Beiting and Ye Anxin disappeared before her eyes, while she continued to shiver in the cold wind.

Back in the president’s office, the first thing Ye Anxin did was go to the window to see if Mo Xuehong was still at the entrance of the Mu Group!

Sure enough, Mo Xuehong was just like yesterday, hugging her arms and shivering as she paced back and forth by the door.

"Don’t look, there’s nothing to see!" Beiting hung up his coat and walked to Ye Anxin’s side, taking her hand without even glancing at the window, leading her to sit on the sofa.

Ye Anxin sat beside Mu Beiting, thoughtfully speaking, "Uncle, I was just thinking about something!"

Mu Beiting asked, "What is it?"

Ye Anxin rested her chin on her hand and pondered as she spoke, "Didn’t I say yesterday, I always feel that Mo Xuehong’s return isn’t simple! She’s been back for so many days and never mentioned having a daughter, and she always deliberately tries to please you, getting close to you at every turn! If she really has nothing to hide, why doesn’t she just tell you everything directly! She stands at the Mu Group’s gate every day, trying to win your sympathy; it doesn’t suit her arrogant character! So, I’m sure she must have a motive for coming back this time!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Beiting’s thin lips just pressed tighter, with no change in his expression.

"I think, rather than not knowing her intentions and letting her cause trouble in secret, it’s better to keep her close, closely observing every move she makes. There’s bound to be a way to find out what she’s up to! That way, we won’t be too passive!" Seeing Mu Beiting’s silence, Ye Anxin shared her thoughts.

She knew, with Uncle’s abilities, no matter what Mo Xuehong’s intentions or schemes might be, he’d certainly be able to handle it!

But, considering that Mo Xuehong is still his biological mother, after all is said and done, and wounds have been made, should Uncle really take action against Mo Xuehong?

No matter what he does to Mo Xuehong, it would brand him as unfilial!

Instead, it’s better to keep Mo Xuehong by their side with some precaution. Once they understand her purpose for returning, won’t the problem be solvable?

"Purpose for returning...! Hmph...!" Mu Beiting snorted disdainfully, his eyes devoid of any warmth.

Seeing this, Ye Anxin widened her eyes in disbelief, "Uncle, do you know why she came back?"

Mu Beiting pursed his thin lips slightly, a flicker in his gaze, "If she can stand outside all day today without leaving, I’ll agree to your idea!"

Hearing this, Ye Anxin smiled, her eyes narrowing with delight, "Alright! That would be a good test for her!"

Mu Beiting tousled Ye Anxin’s hair, "Stop overthinking! This isn’t something you should be worried about!"

"Okay! I understand! I’ll read now, Uncle, you should get to work!" Ye Anxin nodded, and when Mu Beiting sat at his desk starting his work, she took off her coat, hung it up, and then went to the bookshelf to find a book to read.

The morning passed quickly. When Mu Beiting and Ye Anxin went out for lunch at noon, they saw that Mo Xuehong was already frozen stiff at the entrance of the Mu Group, her body almost unable to tremble!

Ye Anxin and Mu Beiting ignored her, heading straight for the restaurant.

Seeing them come out, Mo Xuehong wanted to walk over, but at this moment, her body was numb from the cold. She had no feeling in her legs and couldn’t even stand, let alone walk.

When Ye Anxin and Mu Beiting returned after lunch, Mo Xuehong could only watch them go back to the company, even lacking the strength to speak.

Just as she was contemplating whether to give up, her phone rang in her pocket at just the right time.

After a while, Mo Xuehong arduously took out the phone, put it to her ear, and with a shaky voice, she managed to utter a "hello".

On the other end, Qin Muyao’s worried voice immediately came, "Mom... what happened to you?"
