Ye Xin’s eyes widened in horror. What does she mean? Mu Chen’s unaware that I’ve been in a car accident and has been hospitalized? Does this mean no one knows I’m here?”
Ye Xin could not help but feel a little anxious as she asked, “So what if I’m involved in a wanted criminal case? I didn’t do anything wrong. I’m innocent!”
Gao Wen was not surprised by Ye Xin’s words. She said, “Silly child, you’re unaware of the power struggle between Mu Chen and his father in the family. For this reason, the Mu family is in the spotlight. The Mu family can’t afford to have any scandal now. Even if you have nothing to do with the wanted
criminal, you’ll still have to go to the police station to give your statement. Knowing the media, they’ll make a big fuss about this matter. All the members of the Mu family are keeping a low profile now. Listen to me, Liang Zhou is doing this for us…”
‘Liang Zhou? It’s Liang Zhou again? Why is Liang Zhou so nice?’
Ye Xin thought Gao Wen was truly muddle-headed. She asked, “You’re saying that Liang Zhou didn’t tell Mu Chen that I was involved in a car accident and has been hospitalized?”
Gao Wen nodded. “Yes. The Mu family thinks you’ve gone back to the Ning family house.”
“How long have I been here?” Ye Xin asked.
“Two days. You’ve been unconscious for two days. When your condition stabilizes, I’l secretly go to the Mu family house and speak to the Old Madam. For now, you should just quietly recuperate here. It should be fine since no one knows you’re in that cab. I can’t believe you didn’t even bring your phone
out. Did you know that the car caught fire? If it wasn’t for Liang Zhou, I really don’t dare to imagine the consequences,” Gao Wen said. Then, a distressed expression appeared on her face as she continued to say, “The injuries on your body will heal, but the thing is that the injuries on your face will be
troublesome.”
Fear rose in Ye Xin’s heart immediately. She asked, “What’s wrong with my face?”
At this moment, it finally dawned on her that she was not having a headache. The pain was from all over her face.
Ye Xin asked, shocked, “Am I… Am I disfigured?”
Gao Wen hurriedly said, “It’s alright, Xinxin. With how advanced the medical industry is, your face will definitely return to the way it was before!”
“How’s that possible? I’ve undergone extensive plastic surgery before this. How can my face withstand another round of surgery?
Ye Xin yelled, “Hurry up! Pa.s.s me the mirror!”
Gao Wen was briefly stunned by Ye Xin’s outburst. However, she knew how much her daughter cared about her appearance so she quickly comforted her daughter, “It’s okay. It’s really okay. Xinxin, don’t worry. You’ll be okay.”
“Mirror!” Ye Xin roared.
Gao Wen felt helpless. She could only bring out a compact mirror from her bag and hand it over to Ye Xin.
Ye Xin’s face was bandaged so she only saw the bruises around her eyes. She reached out and touched her nose. When she discovered it was fine, she sighed in relief. Then, she touched the other parts of her face and found that they seemed to be fine. With that, she heaved a huge sigh of relief as she
clutched the mirror against her chest.
Gao Wen looked at Ye Xin carefully. When she saw that Ye Xin did not lose her temper, relief flooded her heart. Then, she said rea.s.suringly, “Don’t worry, darling. We’ll look for the best plastic surgeon for you.”
Ye Xin did not pay attention to Gao Wen. Her mind was racing at this moment. ‘It’s been two days, but no one from the Mu family looked for me?
After a moment, Ye Xin said, “Go to the Mu family and see if there’s any news.”
Gao Wen looked puzzled.
Ye Xin said patiently, “Don’t listen to Liang Zhou. You have to inquire on your own. Find out if Grandma and Mu Chen are still mad at me and if they plan to look for me at the Ning family house.. If they do that, what are you going to do? Won’t we be exposed? What are you going to say then if they ask you
why you hid me here?”
