Jiang Jin looked at the panicking Ye Xin with a dark expression on her face. Then, she said to Uncle Jiang in an icy tone, “Bring the Young Madam to the small room. You’ll personally deliver three meals to her a day. If there’s nothing important, there’s no need for her to go out.”
“Understood!” Uncle Jiang replied before he waved his hand, gesturing to two robust helpers to bring Ye Xin away.
Ye Xin panicked even more. She struggled as she shouted, “Grandma, Grandma, listen to me! It’s not my fault! It’s Mu Chen’s fault! I lost my temper because Mu Chen is cheating on me!”
Jiang Jin looked at Ye Xin coldly. “What does Mu Chen’s cheating have to do with the baby? Why did you vent your anger on the baby?”
Ye Xin was at a loss for words. She was naturally unwilling to be locked up in the small room. She struggled with all her might as she yelled, “Grandma! I didn’t vent my anger on the baby! Don’t listen to that b*tch’s nonsense! She’s slandering me!”
Jiang Jin left. She could not be bothered with Ye Xin anymore.
…
After Ye Xin was locked in the small room, she kicked the door furiously over and over again. Alas, no one paid attention to her.
She ran to the windows and found that the windows were firmly locked. No matter how hard she tried, she could not open them.
She fell to the ground, angry and helpless, as she began to cry again.
She did not know what to do now. Mu Qing and Mu Chen each had a woman outside; both of them did not want her. Moreover, she had made both of them angry. Now, even Jiang Jin was treating her in such a manner. How could she continue to stay in this house? She really did not know what to do. She really did not want to leave this house. Who could help her now?
…
Jiang Jin hosted her party like nothing happened. The only thing was that Liang Zhou was absent.
The blunt force had injured Liang Zhou quite a bit so she was staying in the hospital to recuperate.
Jiang Jin had sent a helper over to look after Liang Zhou and also informed Mu Qing about the matter.
…
Mu Qing rushed to the hospital as soon as he received the news. He was filled with mixed feelings when he heard the helper’s account of what had transpired. He did not expect that his effort to nurture Ye Xin was in vain; she was beyond help. On the contrary, Liang Zhou, whom he did not hold much hope for, slowly but surely made progress.
Xiao Yu, the helper at Mu Qing and Liang Zhou’s house, had come to the hospital as well. She was very tactful with her words as she said to the helper from the Mu family house, “It’s going to be very busy at the family house tomorrow. You should go back and help out. I’ll look after Madam. If you’re short-handed at the house, please let me know so I can arrange for our helpers to help out as well.”
The helper from the Mu family was all smiles when they heard Xiao Yu’s words. After all, they were not familiar with serving Liang Zhou.
Liang Zhou thanked the helper repeatedly before she asked Xiao Yu to arrange for a car to send the helper home.
Meanwhile, Mu Qing looked on with a cold expression on his face. He suddenly felt that Liang Zhou, and even her helper, Xiao Yu, were rather talented. In comparison, Ye Xin was nothing but a fool.
While Xiao Yu attended to Liang Zhou, Mu Qing sat at the side and looked at his phone.
Liang Zhou’s breathing was a little weak. She said with a sigh, “It’s not easy for the Old Madam to give me a chance to help her host the party, but this happened. I’m such a disappointment.”
Mu Qing did not say anything. He actually thought the same in his heart.
On the other hand, Xiao Yu said with a smile, “Madam, you can’t think like that. You saved the Old Madam’s precious grandson this time; the Old Madam will definitely remember this life-saving grace. This is much better than you helping the Old Madam to host the party. Don’t you agree?”
Liang Zhou’s expression eased slightly. After a moment, an expression of fear appeared on her face as she said, “I don’t even dare to think about the consequences if I weren’t there.. What if the baby were injured? This is going to give me nightmares for a long time to come.”
