Qin Muyao also choked up and said, "Mom, I believe in you, you definitely won’t just watch your daughter die!"

"Don’t worry, no matter what, I won’t let you die! You just rest well and wait for news from me!" She said, reluctantly comforting a few more words before hanging up the phone.

After hanging up, Mo Xuehong, who had been outside in the cold wind for a long time, returned to the villa, poured herself a cup of hot tea, and sat on the sofa in the hall, sipping tea while thinking carefully.

Since moving in here, Ye Anxin and Mu Beiting have been practically inseparable every day! She has never seen Ye Anxin go anywhere alone; it’s either the company or home, and usually, Mu Beiting is by her side! Even when going to the hospital for check-ups, Mu Beiting is always there.

Under what circumstances would Ye Anxin be alone?

No matter how much Mo Xuehong racked her brains, she couldn’t think of a way to temporarily separate Mu Beiting and Ye Anxin!

If she waits for an opportunity when they’re apart, her precious daughter might not be able to wait until then.

But even though Mo Xuehong thought about it all afternoon, even while doing chores, until Ye Anxin and Mu Beiting came back from the company, she couldn’t think of a way to temporarily separate Ye Anxin and Mu Beiting.

Every time Mu Beiting and Ye Anxin came back, they would typically pick up Xiao Bai from school, and then the three of them would go home together.

When Mu Beiting and Ye Anxin came back with Xiao Bai, Mo Xuehong happened to be in the kitchen making dinner!

Mu Beiting took Xiao Bai upstairs to change into home clothes, while Ye Anxin walked to the kitchen door and said apologetically, "I’m sorry, thank you for your hard work!"

"It’s nothing! This is what I should do!" Mo Xuehong shook her head, glanced at Ye Anxin’s back, and seeing there was no Mu Beiting or Xiao Bai, Mo Xuehong opened her mouth wanting to say something, but suddenly saw a servant coming from the dining room, and closed her mouth, swallowing the words back down.

Seeing her look as if she had something to say, Ye Anxin curiously asked, "What did you want to say?"

Mo Xuehong quickly changed the topic, "It’s nothing! I just wanted to say the food is ready. Please wash your hands and come to eat!"

"Okay! I’ll go call Uncle and Xiao Bai downstairs!" Ye Anxin said, squinting and smiling sweetly, then turned to leave.

Watching Ye Anxin leaving like that, Mo Xuehong tightened her grip on the spoon, a trace of regret and unwillingness flickered in her eyes!

After the three members of Mu Beiting’s family had dinner, they went to the study to read, then it was time to sleep!

Watching the three of them go upstairs together, Mo Xuehong stood in the hall, her hands at her sides clenching into fists involuntarily.

In a flash, three more days passed, and there still wasn’t any progress. Mo Xuehong couldn’t find any opportunity to get close to Ye Anxin! Watching the days go by, Mo Xuehong was secretly anxious, and by the third day, even Qin Muyao couldn’t help but call to inquire about the progress.

Mo Xuehong gritted her teeth and said unwillingly, "I’ve been waiting these past days, waiting for a moment when Ye Anxin is alone so I can plead with her! But... over these three days, no matter the time or place, the three of them are always together, and I can’t find any opportunity! Whenever Mu Beiting and Xiao Bai aren’t with her, she always has a servant by her side! I can’t start anywhere!"

Qin Muyao frowned and said discontentedly, "Mom, if you couldn’t find an opportunity, why didn’t you call me!"

Mo Xuehong dismissively said, "What’s the use of calling you! You’re not here with me; what could you do?"

Qin Muyao couldn’t help but roll her eyes and said helplessly, "Mom, if she’s not alone, can’t we create an opportunity so she is alone?"

Mo Xuehong asked back, "How do we create an opportunity?"

"...!" Qin Muyao was silent for a moment, then said, "Get Mu Huajian’s help! Right now, the only person who can invite Ye Anxin out alone is Mu Huajian! He is Big Brother’s biological father, no matter what, Ye Anxin still respects him in her heart!"

Mo Xuehong hesitated, "Mu Huajian? Would he help us with this? Back when I returned, I didn’t miss an opportunity to insult him!"

Hearing Mo Xuehong’s words, Qin Muyao was exasperated and said, "Mom, I’ve told you long ago not to be so arrogant and domineering. Bear with it if you can, even if you’re upset and want revenge, don’t make it blatant! I’ve said so much, yet you just wouldn’t listen. As soon as you got back, you offended Mu Huajian and Ye Anxin! What am I supposed to say?"

Mo Xuehong pouted, aggrieved, "How was I to know, after not seeing him for twenty-five years, that Mu Beiting would change so much? I thought he was still that little boy I could control at will! If I’d known he would be so cold-blooded and ruthless, I would have listened to you and held back!"

Seeing Mo Xuehong seeming so pitiful, Qin Muyao sighed helplessly and said, "Forget it! Your personality is just like that, won’t stop until you hit a dead end. If I don’t let you crash into it, you’ll never change!"

Mo Xuehong pursed her lips, unable to argue!

The only person in the world who knows her best is her precious daughter! She was right; if she hadn’t come back and hit a wall, she wouldn’t have become this restrained and subdued.

Seeing Mo Xuehong stayed silent, Qin Muyao didn’t press further, sighing deeply and comforting, "Mom, don’t worry! I’ll sort things out with Mu Huajian! You wait at home for my call!" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Upon hearing this, Mo Xuehong quickly nodded eagerly, "Okay! I’ll wait for your good news!"

"Mm!" Qin Muyao nodded, then hung up the phone.

With Qin Muyao’s words, Mo Xuehong finally relaxed and didn’t go around tensely observing Ye Anxin, always waiting for her to be alone, like in the previous days!

.........

On the other side, after hanging up with Mo Xuehong, Qin Muyao directly took a car to the old Mu Family residence.

At this moment, Mu Huajian was in the study practicing calligraphy.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

"Come in!" With the words falling, the butler opened the door and walked in.

Seeing it was the butler, Mu Huajian asked seriously, "What is it?"

The butler replied truthfully, "Sir, there’s a young lady surnamed Qin at the door who wants to see you!"

"A young lady surnamed Qin?" Mu Huajian searched his mind carefully but couldn’t recall ever knowing a young lady by the name Qin.

To help Mu Huajian remember quickly, the butler tried to describe the features, "Yes! She said her surname is Qin, looks barely over twenty, very young! Her complexion isn’t good, quite pale! However, there’s one strange thing, she... she looks a lot like the young master!"

The young master the butler mentioned is naturally Mu Beiting! In the Mu Family, Mu Huajian is referred to as the master, Mu Beiting’s deceased brother was the eldest young master, Mu Beiting is the young master, and Mu Rufeng is the grandson master.
