Chapter 388: Giving Up
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Liang Zhou was so touched that her eyes shone with tears. She hurriedly made a promise. “I know. I promise to be careful in the future.”
Mu Qing was very satisfied with Liang Zhou’s response.
Liang Zhou said, “I plan to visit the Old Madam and the baby today. I bought some fish maw for the Old Madam; it’ll nourish her body. I saw that Song Ning used to cook it for her. Now that she’s given birth, she might not have the time. It’s been a long time since I last saw fish maw at the Old Madam’s house.”
Upon hearing this, Mu Qing frowned. However, he quickly corrected his expression. Then, he said, “You’re really meticulous. Buy some clothes and toys for the baby. Since Yu is in charge of my mother’s food, it’s best not to interfere…”
Liang Zhou beamed and said, “You’re right. Yu is experienced, and Song Ning’s a doctor. I shouldn’t simply buy food for the Old Madam. I’m not sure what kind of clothes or shoes I should buy for the baby so I’ll just buy toys for him first.”
Liang Zhou’s face glowed with happiness and excitement. She truly liked the baby.
Mu Qing smiled. “When I think about how we’re already grandparents, I feel like time is really unforgiving. However, when I look at you, I still feel like I’m in my prime…”
Liang Zhou covered her mouth and laughed. “Isn’t that great? What’s so great about being young? Moreover, we still have many years together…”
Mu Qing nodded with a smile. His mood was better than it had been in a long time.
Liang Zhou walked Mu Qing to the door and waved at the car. When the car finally pulled away, she slowly turned around and walked back into the house.
The smile she had directed at Mu Qing was still plastered on her face, but it gradually became strange.
When she finally entered the room, her legs gave way, and she sat on the floor.
As it turned out, she could act so skillfully.
As it turned out, she could make Mu Qing much happier than when she was sincere.
As it turned out, she had given her heart to the wrong person.
As it turned out, she did not need to use her heart to win a man’s favor.
To think she had wasted so many years.
Liang Zhou lay on the floor and mourned her past self for a long time before she rose to her feet and pulled herself together. She wiped her tears and washed up before she left the room.
Once a woman’s heart turned cold, there was nothing she could not do.
Liang Zhou had kept a low profile for so many years because of Mu Qing. To be precise, it was because of her love for him. In the process, she had almost lost her heart. She really had to thank Mu Qing and Ye Xin for giving her a wake-up call.
Women should love themselves the most. Only a fool would love another person more than themselves and live their lives for another person.
Liang Zhen was an example of that as well.
In the past, she had always thought she had defeated Liang Zhen. However, among the three of them, the only one who won was that man.
…
Mu Chen stirred his coffee and did not look at the woman sitting in front of him.
Liang Zhou did not care about Mu Chen’s cold treatment of her. He should treat her as such. Moreover, it made her feel better. At this time, she said anxiously, “Mu Chen, I saw someone in the hospital. She looks very much like Song Ning!”
Mu Chen raised his head immediately and looked at Liang Zhou with a piercing gaze.
Liang Zhou instinctively avoided his gaze. She took a deep breath and calmed her racing heart. Then, she said, “I can’t be sure if she’s Song Ning, but she gave me a very familiar feeling.”
Mu Chen seemed to have calmed down at this moment.
“That day, I saw her with the director. He was very respectful to her. I only brushed past them and only heard them talking about checking patients’ pulse. When the director fainted later on, she rushed over and treated him with acupuncture! Mu Chen, Song Ning’s a doctor. Her instinct is to save people. Moreover, acupuncture is her specialty. Her composure is too similar to Song Ning. However, she’s wearing a mask so I didn’t see her face. She has a scar that starts from her left temple. It looks like a burn. Her eyes are very similar to Song Ning’s,” Liang Zhou said.. She felt like she was not doing a good job explaining how the other person really resembled Song Ning.
