“Madam Ye, Liang Zhou is now with my mother at the family house so it’s inconvenient for her to see you now. Why don’t you tell me what’s going on? Liang Zhou has told me to do my best to help you. With that, I can’t let others deceive you,” Mu Qing said, using Liang Zhou to cheat Gao Wen’s trust.
Gao Wen perked up immediately upon hearing these words. She was clearly very touched as she said, “I really have to thank Liang Zhou. I’ll never be able to repay her kindness to me in this lifetime!”
‘Mu Qing remained silent for a moment. After all, in his eyes, the sisterhood between women was just plastic. After all, he did not see Liang Zhou reciprocating Gao Wen’s feelings. Nevertheless, he went with the flow and said, “Yes, Liang Zhou is very kind. She treats her friends’ problems like her own. She
said your problem is very complicated and that no one would believe you even if you told others about it. She told me to keep an open mind when I listen to you and to do my best to help you.”
Gao Wen was so touched that tears welled up in her eyes again. She wondered what she had done right to meet such a wonderful and kind couple like Liang Zhou and Mu Qing. She no longer hesitated and recounted everything that happened recently. She told him about how he had met Ye Xin, why she
was suspicious, and how she confirmed her suspicion. However, she hid the part where Liang Zhou helped her to steal Ye Xin’s hair. In her opinion, if Mu Qing found out that Liang Zhou had helped her in this manner, it would definitely affect Mu Qing and Liang Zhou’s relations.h.i.+p.
‘Mu Qing listened carefully to Gao Wen’s words. His palms were already drenched in sweat. As it turned out, Ye Xin had long exposed herself, and he was completely unaware of it. No, even Ye Xin herself was unaware of it.
He had spent half of his life refining the skills of scheming and winning people’s hearts. He had dealt with many people and had never made a mistake. He did not expect he would actually fail at the hands of an ignorant girl like Ye Xin.
He blamed himself for being careless. He thought a girl at Ye Xin’s age should know how to act; there was no need for him to arrange everything in detail. With her intelligence, he did not think there would be a problem. As for her arrogance, it was indeed problematic. However, it could be solved by
saying it was due to the changes in her hormones after giving birth. With that, she could even attract his mother’s sympathy and stop his son from asking too many questions. He thought that after a period of time, when their relations.h.i.+p was even better, he would be able to push his own agenda forward.
Alas, Ye Xin was an idiot through and through.
After listening to Gao Wen, he quickly grasped the main point and asked, “Madam Ye, do you still have the results of the DNA test?”
Gao Wen nodded. “Yes, I do. Ye Xin had been determined to continue with her impersonation of Song Ning so I wanted to fulfill her wish and destroy the evidence. However, I couldn’t bear to do so and kept it instead.”
Mu Qing could not help but break out in cold sweat when he heard this. Ye Xin really had nothing she could do well. Back then, she had said she had threatened her mother with her own life so her mother agreed to destroy the evidence. In the end, her mother still kept the evidence.
He sighed lightly, not knowing if he was lucky or unlucky.
“Do you need the test result?” Gao Wen asked tentatively.
“Yes.” Mu Qing nodded slightly.
Gao Wen’s expression was one of eagerness as she said, “Mr. Mu, can you help me look for Ye Xin first? She’s seriously injured so I’m even more worried about her. Her wounds can’t be left untreated!”
Upon hearing that, Mu Qing hurriedly said, “Of course. I’ll immediately a.s.sign people to look for her. Please list out the places you think Ye Xin might be at so we can act more efficiently.”
Gao Wen nodded, heaving a huge sigh.. “Xinxin, wait for Mommy to save you!”
