Wu Xiaomin and Lin Yanyan stopped in their tracks and had to turn around. However, there was still that strange expression on their faces that looked like a mix of sympathy and pity.
Sir, life is so tragic for you!
“No!” They answered in unison.
“We overheard a nurse telling another nurse that Sister He had another child and I think she mentioned that it was a son. We didn’t see that child since he was not around when we visited,” Wu Xiaomin said awkwardly, then immediately bowed her head thereafter.
They had made a huge mistake today by buying so many toys out of the blue, but they were merely thinking about their own futures. If Mr. Mo was not able to have a biological son of his own, Mo Ye would be the future heir to the Mo businesses. Now that the child was not close to them, all they wanted to do was to establish good relations with the child.
Li Qin’s shock gradually faded and she came back to her senses. However, she became extremely excited as though she had taken some stimulant.
“Yixuan, He Xiyan has two children, she actually has two children,” she repeated the words as she reached out to grab her son’s clothes.
Mo Yixuan shut his eyes tightly and said sharply, “Mum, stop it!”
He felt as though 10,000 arrows had pierced through his heart. She hadn’t managed to fall pregnant during their three years of marriage but after they were divorced, she had two children with Ye Hao.
Now that she had two children with Ye Hao, the chances of her returning to him were practically zero. This was also the greatest irony since his mother and himself had always thought that she could not bear children and was infertile. Yet, she now had borne two children.
Li Qin blinked hard a couple of times, then she asked for Lin Yanyan’s phone again and examined those photographs once more. There was indeed a newborn in that photo but the toys around the bed definitely belonged to another child.
The child just happened to be absent then.
“Yixuan, I want you to think carefully. When was the last time you slept with He Xiyan?” Li Qin shook her son’s arm. She suddenly became very agitated and her earlier depressed emotions were swept away. Her whole face was flushed red as though she had drunk some alcohol.
He Xiyan had only left the Mo family for slightly over a year and it had not even been two years yet. If she already had two children, even if both children were born prematurely at 8 months, she must have been pregnant for more than a year in total. Furthermore, she would need at least another two to three months after her first child before she could get pregnant again, so based on her calculations, could He Xiyan’s first child be…
Li Qin suddenly recalled the fortune-teller she visited not too long ago at the temple. That elderly master mentioned that Yixuan had a son born in 2020 – that was the year before. She had also sent Wu Xiaomin to seek clarification with the elderly master later on and he clarified that he meant a biological son, not an adopted son.
Did that mean that He Xiyan was the mother of the biological son that was mentioned by the elderly master?
Mo Yixuan could not understand why his mother would ask such a thing.
He frowned and looked very annoyed. Neither did he want to speak.
“Yixuan, do you remember or not?” Li Qin gave her son a shove anxiously.
Mo Yixuan extracted his arm from her grip and looked very irritated by her constant badgering. His black eyes were completely dull as he replied coldly, “December 24th the year before, which was the day before we got divorced.” Then, he heaved a long sigh and closed his eyes tightly. He felt himself tearing up again.
They were no longer man and wife after that night and she was completely lost to him thereafter. Each time he thought about that night, his heart would hurt all over again.
