Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Cheng Che looked exhausted as he spoke to Mu Chen through a video call. “Brother, I visited many mental hospitals in the city under the pretext of researching for a movie. Ye Xin isn’t in any of the hospitals. I discovered that she had been substituted in the mental hospital that she had been publicly admitted into. That girl looks about 30% to 40% like her. She makes a mess of herself every day so no one notices that she’s not Ye Xin.”

Mu Chen nodded. “Grandma was the one who raised the suspicion that Ye Xin might be involved in this. After all, she resembles Song Ning, to begin with. She only needs a little tweak here and there during surgery so the recovery wouldn’t take long compared to an entire facial reconstruction.”

Cheng Che sighed and said with a hint of admiration, “Grandma is really perceptive. Do you think Ye Cheng is the one who brought Ye Xin out? After all, the Ye family was forced to send Ye Xin to the mental hospital due to public pressure. How could he be willing? It’s not surprising for him to secretly bring Ye Xin out and arrange for someone to take her place.” He paused for a moment before he continued to say, “However, why did he send Ye Xin to our family? Was it to satisfy her wish to marry you? Or, does he have another plan?”

Mu Chen was also puzzled. After a moment, he asked, “Does Ye Cheng and Mr. Mu have any interactions?”

Cheng Che was stunned. “I… I didn’t check. It’s impossible, right?”

Mu Chen said, “Anything’s possible. Cheng Che, we have no leads now so we can’t let go of any possibility…”

Cheng Che nodded solemnly. “I understand, Brother.”

After ending the video call, Mu Chen placed his phone on the table and leaned back against his chair. The room was dark; he did not turn the lights on. Only the dim light from the computer screen illuminated his face.

At this time, someone knocked on the door. When the door was pushed open, Song Ning walked with a plate of fruits and turned on the lights. “Why didn’t you turn on the lights?”

At this time, Mu Chen had already adjusted his sitting posture. He held the mouse in his hand and looked at the computer screen.

After Song Ning placed the fruit platter on the table, she said, “Mu Chen, try these cherries I bought today. They’re very sweet. Grandma really likes them, but she can’t have too many of them so I brought some over for you.”

Mu Chen nodded slightly. He remembered that cherries were the real Song Ning’s favorite fruit. On a whim, he picked one of the cherries up and handed it to Song Ning and said, “Have one.”

Song Ning was delighted. She hurriedly took the cherry from Mu Chen. However, she brought it to his lips to feed him and said coquettishly, “I carefully selected these cherries for you. Hurry up and eat them…”

Mu Chen moved to the side and hurriedly picked a cherry up on the plate and ate it, avoiding Song Ning’s touch.

Song Ning leaned against the table and rested her chin on her hands before she said coquettishly, “Hubby, why are you always so busy?”

Mu Chen instinctively looked at her when she said the word ‘hubby’, but he quickly averted his gaze.

Song Ning was wearing a rather sexy pink nightgown, and because she was leaning forward, the top of her chest was exposed.

Mu Chen stared at the computer screen intently as he said, “I’m currently trying to purchase a company, and it’s at the critical stage…”

The real Song Ning had always addressed him using his name. She would only call him ‘hubby’ occasionally when there was a special occasion. Hence, he was very sensitive to this word. However, when he looked at the woman in front of him, he felt as though he had been splashed with a bucket of cold water. He even felt coldness seeping into his heart.

Song Ning was unaware of Mu Chen’s thoughts. She stood up and moved to stand behind Mu Chen before placing her hands on his shoulder to give him a massage. “Hubby, you should rest for a while. Why don’t you accompany me?”

Mu Chen’s body stiffened.. He suppressed and endured his instincts to run away.
