Ye Xin was about to go to Jiang Jin’s room to see the baby when she saw A Nuan carrying the baby out.
Ye Xin stopped A Nuan and asked, “Where are you going”
Nuan tooka step back and said in a low voice, “Young Madam, the baby doesn’t want to stay in the room so I’m bringing him out for a walk”
Ye Xin reached out to carry the baby as she said, “T’l do it.”
A Nuan avoided Ye Xin’s hands and quickly took another step back. “There’s no need for that, Young Madam. I’m sure you’re busy so I’l look after the baby.”
Before Ye Xin’s hand even touched the baby, she saw him turning away from her. She was stunned. The baby was truly averse to her. Although she disliked the baby, she was now Song Ning, and the baby was supposed to be her biological son.
Mu Qing was right. If she wanted to stay in the Mu family, the best way to make the baby unable to leave her side. She could rely on the baby to gain a foothold in the family. So what if Mu Chen had another woman? She was the person who had given birth to the eldest grandson of the Mu family. No woman would be able to replace her or shake her position.
Alas, the baby was really averse to her. Now that she wanted to carry him, he turned away and tightened his hold around A Nuan’s neck instead. It was as though she was a ferocious beast.
Ye Xin could not help but feel angry. Why was everyone in the family, including the baby, so hard to please! ‘To think even a baby was making things difficult for her.
Ye Xin reached out again and said determinedly, “T’m not busy. I’l look after the baby personally today. I’ll bring him to the garden for a walk.”
A Nuan was shocked. How could she hand the baby over to Ye Xin? Jiang Jin and
Sister Yu had repeatedly told her that she was not to let the Young Madam near the baby at all. She did not understand this in the past. She had felt the two old women had gone too far. How could they separate a baby from his mother?
However, as time pa.s.sed, as slow-witted as she was, she could also see the abnormalities in Ye Xin. She had been frightened out of her wits when she leamed that Ye Xin had tried to hurt the baby. Fortunately, Liang Zhou was there at that time and saved the baby. If she were present that day, she would have kowtowed thrice to Liang Zhou immediately to express her grat.i.tude.
Hence, when A Nuan saw Ye Xin approaching the baby, she instinctively retreated. However, she was frightened out of her wits when she saw how determined Ye Xin was to s.n.a.t.c.h the baby away from her arms. She placed one hand on the baby’s back to protect him as she continued to distance herself from Ye Xin and said, “Young Madam, there’s no need for that.”
Ye Xin flew into a rage immediately. “What’s wrong with you? Why are you retreatingI want to cary the baby! Give him to me now!”
Nuan tightened her hold on the baby. She supported his back with one hand, letting him rest on her shoulder. She forced a smile on her face and said, “Young Madam, why don’t we go to the garden together? I’l help you carry the baby since he’s quite heavy. That way, you won’t be tired.”
A Nuan thought that if Ye Xin came to the garden with her, there would definitely be helpers in the garden who would inform Jiang Jin or Sister Yu about her current predicament. At that time, they would definitely come to save her and the baby.
Ye Xin’s temper flared up. She discovered that A Nuan was also in on the matter. It was obvious that even A Nuan would not allow the baby to get close to his biological mother. She thought that people from the Mu family were indeed ruthless. she was determined not to let them get their way. Hence, she said in a shrill voice, “Give the baby to me!”
The baby sensed the change in A Nuan’s mood and was shocked by Ye Xin’s shrill voice so he began to cry loudly.
A Nuan heaved a sigh of relief. With the baby crying so loudly, someone would naturally come to check on him.
On the contrary, Ye Xin’s heart sank.
