Chapter 508: He Would Forget Him One Day
Yuan Yuan rubbed his sleepy eyes and he took a while to recognize the person in front of him.
“Ma ma…” He said as he stretched out his tiny hands and the blanket had been kicked aside by him.
He Xiyan picked Yuan Yuan up from the bed and pinched his soft cheeks. She had fretted that Yuan Yuan couldn’t be accustomed to life with the Mo family but it seemed like children had a very strong ability to adapt.
Yuan Yuan seemed to have forgotten about the people at the castle.
“Ma ma…hungry…” Yuan Yuan said as he rubbed his belly. He usually had a little more to eat at night.
He Xiyan placed Yuan Yuan by the bedside and told him to stand there while she went downstairs to get food from the dining area. She had specially instructed the chef to prepare something nutritious for her child.
Yuan Yuan turned his head and observed his surroundings. This room seemed familiar to him but he had started to forget what this room meant to him.
He walked toward the sofa and saw Ye Hao. Then, he bit his lips and rubbed his head.
This uncle…
He searched his memory and finally smiled toothily at Ye Hao.
“Pa pa…” Yuan Yuan called out childishly and sprawled out on the sofa as he reached out his hand to pat Ye Hao’s thigh.
Ye Hao’s lips curved into a wry smile. He saw that this child still had some memories of him but these memories were starting to grow faint. He knew that it wouldn’t be long before this child forgot about him and one day, this child’s memories of him would be completely forgotten.
He wished that this child was his. Then, their marriage would be spared from all the problems that had arisen because of this child.
“Yuan Yuan, go there to wait for your mother!” Ye Hao pointed toward the door that was tightly shut as he pinched the child’s face.
It would be better for him to stay away from the child since he was sick. He hadn’t held Xi Xi in the past two days as well.

At the same time, in the Mo mansion.
Li Qin paced about the living room anxiously and her face was filled with anxiety. She looked very upset.
“Yixuan, why did you let He Xiyan take the child away?” Li Qin felt annoyed at the thought that Yuan Yuan was sleeping in the castle tonight. More importantly, she was afraid that He Xiyan was going to pull another disappearing act and go into hiding with Yuan Yuan.
Mo Yixuan sat quietly on the sofa. He ignored his mother as he deftly lit up a cigarette and smoked out of habit.
His mother was getting on his nerves and he didn’t understand why she was being so sensitive.
“Yixuan, why aren’t you saying anything?” Li Qin smacked her son’s shoulder angrily when she saw that he was ignoring her.
Mo Yixuan finally looked at his mother and said unhappily, “Mum, why can’t you back off for a bit. Yan Yan is the child’s mother and we have no right from stopping her from visiting her child.”
His relations.h.i.+p with his mother had worsened mainly because his mother was very unreasonable and liked to make decisions without consulting him.
Li Qin said adamantly, “I don’t care what you think. In any case, make sure that she doesn’t bring Yuan Yuan over to the Ye family in the future.”
Li Qin wrung her hands anxiously. She felt as though she couldn’t rest easy when her grandson was out of her sight.
Mo Yixuan continued to puff on his cigarette and ignored his mother who was kicking up a fuss for no reason.
Then, a child’s head poked in from the doorway and stared at them with his black eyes. Mo Ye looked to the left, then to the right, as though he was searching for somebody.
“Yuan Yuan…” he finally called out after a while.
