The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex Chapter 426 - A Burden They Could Not Get Rid of

Chapter 426: A Burden They Could Not Get Rid of

Mo Yixuan rushed downstairs and saw Ye Ye standing in front of the metal gates crying his eyes out. He cried very loudly and wailed so hard that his face was flushed red and his eyes bloodshot.
“Hurry, bring the child inside,” Mo Yixuan said to Lin Yanyan.
Lin Yanyan quickly ran out and carried the wailing child indoors.
She felt terrible when she saw how hard he was crying and wondered what was wrong with the Cheng family. This child was their flesh and blood, so how could they bear to abandon him?
Mo Ye cried even louder when he saw that an aunty he recognized was carrying him. Then, a small piece of white notebook paper that was covered in words fell out of his cap.
“Sir, there’s a piece of paper here,” Lin Yanyan put Mo Ye down and picked up that piece of paper. She didn’t even read it before she handed it to Mo Yixuan.
Mo Yixuan frowned at the ugly handwriting on that piece of paper and there were even many characters that were written wrong. His eyes became as dark as the night sky.
‘Hello, Mr. Mo, this is Ye Ye’s biological grandmother. I’m really sorry but we can’t raise this child because my future daughter-in-law is currently three months pregnant with twins and she had kicked up a huge fuss over the past two or three days, insisting that she would abort the twin babies she was carrying if we accepted Ye Ye into our family. After discussions with Ye Ye’s biological father, we decided that it was best to let you raise the child. We wanted to hand him over to Xia Yuwei but we heard that she has contracted a terminal illness as well as several contagious illnesses, so she is in no position to raise the child. Since we’ve run out of solutions, we could only send the child back to you. Don’t worry, we won’t acknowledge this child even after he has grown older, so you should just treat him as your adopted son.”
Mo Yixuan’s eyes became piercingly cold when he finished the note and his fingers balled in fists.
Then, he tore that note up into tiny pieces.
“Sir, what do we do?” Lin Yanyan looked at Mo Yixuan in confusion. She didn’t read the note, so she didn’t understand why he was so angry and frustrated.
Mo Yixuan’s brows were knitted tightly. He looked at the wailing child and he was so conflicted that he felt as though a rope had tightened around his heart.
“Bring him in,” he said with a wave as he entered the house, completely ignoring Mo Ye who couldn’t stop crying.
Mo Ye stopped crying so sorrowfully after he was back at the Mo mansion. He rubbed at his eyes as he stood quietly in front of the doorway and Li Qin who just heard the news slowly emerged from the living room.
“Grandmother…” Mo Ye immediately ran over when he saw Li Qin and wrapped his tiny arms around her leg. “Grandmother…” he chanted repeatedly and rubbed his tears and snot all over her pants.
Li Qin looked at the ceiling speechlessly and soon, her eyes brimmed with tears while her face seemed even more haggard and a few more strands of white hair had appeared around her forehead.
“This is truly retribution!” she howled at the ceiling.
She couldn’t understand how this could happen to their once perfectly normal household. She couldn’t get her biological grandson back while she couldn’t even send her non-biological grandson away.
“Take him to his room and get him something to eat,” Li Qin finally instructed Lin Yanyan after struggling with her conflicting emotions for a while.
Then, she turned back to the living room where her brother Li Yunsheng was waiting. They were discussing how to obtain custody of Yuan Yuan.
