Mu Beiting’s brows were tightly knitted, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

Ye Anxin quickly exited the video and made a phone call!

The call was quickly connected, and Ye Anxin hurriedly said, "Butler, please go to the garden and see if she’s there. If she is, try to secretly listen to what she’s saying on the phone! Remember, don’t let her discover you!"

Currently in the Mu Family, when ’she’ is mentioned, everyone knows it’s referring to Mo Xuehong!

Now, no one calls her by name, everyone simply uses ’she’ as a substitute!

"Got it, I’ll go right away!" The butler hung up the phone, then went out, searching for Mo Xuehong in the garden outside the villa.

Before long, in the most hidden part of the garden on the left side of the villa, the butler saw Mo Xuehong with her back to him, head lowered, holding the phone in one hand and covering the receiver with the other, speaking softly about something.

The butler wanted to get closer, but there was nowhere to hide around, and he was afraid Mo Xuehong would notice him, so he had to keep a slight distance and carefully eavesdrop.

Mo Xuehong squatted in the flower bushes, speaking gently on the phone to Qin Muyao, "Baby, you’re finally calling!"

Qin Muyao asked, "How’s it going? Is my brother letting his guard down against you now?"

Mo Xuehong sighed, gritting her teeth, "Ugh! In the entire Mu Family, except for Ye Anxin, no one shows me a kind face! These days, it’s been worse than death for me. If it weren’t for you, I would’ve left by now, no need to stay and endure this humiliation!"

Qin Muyao frowned and asked, "What’s going on exactly?"

"Isn’t it that brat Xiao Bai, who finds ways to torment me, even the servants dare to bully me under his influence! Now, in this house, I’m not even as good as a servant! In this big family, all the work is done by me alone! From five in the morning, I work until eight at night without rest! If this continues, I’m afraid in a few days, you won’t see me because I’ll be worked to death!" Thinking of Xiao Bai’s actions toward her during this time, Mo Xuehong’s anger made her face flush, and if it weren’t for the fact that Xiao Bai was Mu Beiting’s son, she would’ve taught him a lesson!

Qin Muyao gently said, "Mom, I’m sorry you have to do this for me!"

Mo Xuehong desperately shook her head, "It’s okay, it’s okay! I just want to ask, when can we make a move? Your illness can’t wait, and I can’t hold on here much longer! Despite my efforts these days, Mu Beiting shows no signs of softening! I’m afraid, no matter what I do, he won’t forgive me! What should we do then? He certainly won’t save you!"

Qin Muyao said meaningfully, "My brother has always been like this; it’s normal for him to act this way! As for Ye Anxin, though she is kind-hearted, she’s too weak. If my brother and Xiao Bai treat you like this, there’s nothing she can do. She can’t speak in the family! That’s just how women are, without their own careers, without skills, they can only rely on men all their lives, listening and obeying to them! Even if a man loves her, she doesn’t dare to go against his wishes! Allowing you to return to the Mu Family might be the biggest concession my brother made!"

Mo Xuehong said with a tearful face, "So what now? If Mu Beiting’s attitude doesn’t soften, I can’t take action either!"

"...!" On the other end, Qin Muyao was silent for a while before suddenly asking, "Mom, where are you now? Is anyone nearby?"

Hearing this, Mo Xuehong quickly looked around.

Seeing her suddenly turn back, the butler hurriedly squatted down, hiding in the flower bushes not far away.

Seeing no one, Mo Xuehong said, "There’s no one around me, I’m chatting with you in the garden outside!"

Qin Muyao asked again, "Does Xiao Bai push all the chores to you, like grocery shopping? Do you have to do that too?"

Mo Xuehong thoughtfully said, "No! The grocery shopping is done by a dedicated servant! I don’t know if I’m being paranoid, but any errands that require going out are handled by specific servants in the house, as if they don’t want me to leave!"

Hearing this, Qin Muyao thought for a while, then said, "Alright! Be patient for two more days, the day after tomorrow is Saturday, my brother and Xiao Bai will be resting! That morning at four, I’ll leave a packet of powder on the ground by the main entrance. When you cook for them in the evening, quietly mix it into the food while they’re not looking! After they fall asleep at night, take three clean plastic bottles and draw blood from their hands! After marking the blood with their names, leave the bottles at the door for me. I’ll take them to the hospital for testing!"

Mo Xuehong asked in confusion, "Why do you need Ye Anxin’s too? Isn’t it enough to have Mu Beiting’s and Xiao Bai’s? Mu Beiting is your brother, Xiao Bai is your nephew, their chances are higher, Ye Anxin’s chances are surely zero! Why waste time drawing her blood?"

Qin Muyao explained, "Regardless of Ye Anxin’s chances, having one more person means one more safeguard! She might be able to save me after all! Anyway, it’s just drawing blood; adding her costs nothing!"

After hearing Qin Muyao’s words, Mo Xuehong quickly nodded eagerly, "Okay, okay! I know what to do! You’re right, having one more person is another guarantee! Every day, I’m the one cooking for them, slipping something in the food is the easiest part!"

"Alright! Keep in touch!" After saying that, she hung up the phone.

After hanging up, Mo Xuehong looked around once more, and seeing no one nearby, she stood up and returned to the villa.

Only after she left did the butler emerge from the bushes, then called Ye Anxin back.

Ye Anxin, who was waiting by the phone, answered immediately when she saw the call from the butler, "Hello, how did it go?"

The butler apologized, "Madam, I’m sorry, the distance was quite far and she was covering her mouth, speaking very quietly, so I couldn’t make out what she was saying!"

Ye Anxin sighed, "If that’s the case, then let’s just leave it be! Go about your tasks without being too obvious, so she doesn’t become suspicious!"

"Mm!" The butler obediently nodded and hung up the phone.

After Ye Anxin hung up, Mu Beiting glanced up at her, then continued handling his work.

Seeing Mu Beiting’s lack of interest, Ye Anxin couldn’t help but ask, "Uncle, don’t you want to know who Mo Xuehong was calling?"

Mu Beiting replied decisively, "No, I don’t."

Ye Anxin pouted in dissatisfaction, "Why not? I initially just suspected her return was not genuine, but after today’s incident, I’m almost certain she has an ulterior motive! If she had nothing to hide, why the need for secretive calls? She could make them openly!"
