Chapter 488: Casual Conversation (2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Since Mu Qing sent Liang Zhou home, he could not leave immediately. He was on tenterhooks as he pretended to ask about Liang Zhou’s well-being.
Liang Zhou pretended not to notice his restlessness and spoke about her time at the Mu family house.
‘Mu Qing could only force himself to patiently listen to her since he strongly felt that Liang Zhou would definitely be helpful to his grand plan. When he excused himself to go to the bathroom, he sent a message to Lin Liang, another one of his assistants, asking her to come up with an excuse to get him
out of the house.
When Lin Liang arrived at the house, he feigned reluctance as he said goodbye to Liang Zhou.
Although Liang Zhou did not seem like she was finished talking, she acted very sensibly. She told Mu Qing that he should prioritize his work.
Mu Qing really felt like Liang Zhou had been reborn. If she had been like this in the past, would it not save him a lot of trouble? After all, it was not cheap raising so many women outside, and the cost of raising Liang Zhou was relatively low.
Mu Qing had sent Gao Wen to the villa.
At this moment, Gao Wen sat on the couch, feeling restless. There were too many traces of Ye Xin in this place.
The style of the furniture, the decor, the cosmetics that littered the table, and even the brands of the bedroom furniture were Ye Xin’s favorite.
Gao Wen’s sense of unease rose as she wondered about Ye Xin’s whereabouts.
The entire matter was too unbelievable and shocking.
She wondered how Ye Xin had managed to replace Song Ning in the first place. She blamed herself for not thinking about this earlier. She only thought about the consequences of Ye Xin impersonating Song Ning, but she did not think about where the real Song Ning was or how Ye Xin managed to
impersonate Song Ning.
‘When she recalled the Mu family’s attitude toward Ye Xin, she could not help but wonder if the Mu family was already aware that Ye Xin was an impostor. They treated Ye Xin so badly, and it was definitely not for no reason. Most importantly, Song Ning had returned to the Mu family out of the blue, but
Ye Xin was gone.
‘Where could Ye Xin go? She was injured, and her face was so badly burned that the doctor said she would definitely need plastic surgery. Where could she have gone?
Gao Wen’s tears had been flowing day and night. She hated herself for being so helpless. Now that things had escalated to this point, who else could help her?
Her husband and son did not believe her. Even she did not know if this was real or if she was hallucinating.
At this moment, Gao Wen suddenly leaped up from the couch. She heard a noise outside. It was Mu Qing!
When Mu Qing entered, he did not wait for Gao Wen to speak before he said, “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting.”
Gao Wen did not know what to say, slightly confused. She only smiled stiffly.
‘Mu Qing invited Gao Wen to take a seat.
As Lin Liang poured a glass of water for them, Mu Qing said, “Madam Ye, let me be straight with you.”
Gao Wen nodded, looking like a frightened bird.
“Madam Ye, did you see Song Ning in my house?” Mu Qing asked. To outsiders, he would refer to the Mu family house as ‘my house’, but he did not dare to say such arrogant words when faced with the Mu family.
Gao Wen nodded slightly. She was distant and wary.
In order to make Gao Wen lower her vigilance, Mu Qing decided to bring up Liang Zhou. He said bluntly, “I heard from Liang Zhou that you suspect Song Ning is Ye Xin?”
Gao Wen was shocked. However, on second thought, she thought it was not surprising that Liang Zhou had told Mu Qing about this matter. After all, Liang Zhou loved Mu Qing so much that Liang Zhou had devoted her life to Buddhism and even became a vegetarian. With these thoughts in mind, she
nodded in response to Mu Qing’s question.
Mu Qing sighed in relief inwardly. He was worried Gao Wen would be difficult to deal with. Clearly, that was not the case..
