Jiang Qimeng rushed forward, her heart aching as she held onto the side of the bed looking at her daughter. “How do you feel? Does it hurt?”


  “The child…… how’s the child?” Song Enya asked in a trembling voice. “Is the child okay?”


  As she spoke, she raised her heavy hand to touch her belly, only to find that it was flat. Her tears fell uncontrollably.

  When Meng Qingxue heard this, she looked stunned for a moment. And when she sensed the man next to her suddenly stiffening his posture, her heart sank immediately……

  In the ward.

  Song Enya had been given a sedative and fallen asleep.

  Mu Yanchen sat outside the door while Meng Qingxue sat beside him, not leaving his side.

  He had wanted to send her home initially, but Meng Qingxue insisted on being with him and refused to go anywhere else.

  Mu Yanchen had no choice but to let her be.

  The news reached Mu Shumin and she rushed to the hospital. Upon arriving at the entrance of the ward, she saw Mu Yanchen and Meng Qingxue sitting next to him. Frowning slightly, she walked over and gave them a cold glance.

  Mu Yanchen did not notice her. His head was lowered, he was seemingly deep in thought and had not heard Mu Shumin’s footsteps.

  It was Meng Qingxue who reacted and nudged him lightly. He looked up and was surprised to see Mu Shumin. “Why are you here?”


  “Let’s not bother with this now.”


  As Mu Shumin spoke, she glanced at Meng Qingxue from the corner of her eyes, as though hinting at something. “Shouldn’t you explain who this is?”


  “Auntie, I’ll tell you about that later!”


  Mu Yanchen then stood up and said to Mu Shumin, “Song Enya had a miscarriage.”


  “Miscarriage?”


  “Yes! The child is gone.”


  When Mu Shumin heard this news, her expression shifted. Noticing the guilt in his expression, she seemed to have guessed something and probed, “Does Song Enya’s miscarriage have anything to do with you?”


  “I……”


  Mu Yanchen took a deep breath and confessed, “I accidentally pushed her and she fell to the ground. We lost the child.”


  “You—!”


  Mu Shumin was furious and questioned him, “You knew she was pregnant. How could you be so careless?”


  “I didn’t do it on purpose! She seemed to have gone crazy and pounced on Qingxue. She was like a vixen gone crazy. Without thinking, I reacted to fend her off. I probably used too much force……”


  “So in conclusion, it was all because of this woman, right?!”


  Mu Shumin interrupted him and turned to look at Meng Qingxue. Frowning, she sized up the girl. “You’re that Meng Qingxue?!”


  “Yes.” Meng Qingxue’s replied in a quiet voice.

  Mu Shumin snorted. “Well, you’re rather good-looking! No wonder my nephew is so infatuated with you!”


  “Auntie!”


  Mu Yanchen said gloomily, “Stop spouting nonsense.”


  Mu Shumin interrupted him again and warned him coldly, “Don’t you forget how you became the head of this family!”


  Mu Yanchen fell silent as his face turned ashen.

  “Are you trying to follow in your second brother’s steps and create a second Yun Shishi, then like him, forfeit the headship of the family?!”


  She got angrier as she spoke, “Don’t forget how difficult it was for you to get where you are! You promised me back then that you wouldn’t mess around! You said that you’d do as I say! Didn’t I tell you to cut ties with this woman?!”
