Chapter 743 - 786: Couldn’t Bring Herself to Do It
After listening to the doctor’s words, Ye Anxin became even more worried. She tightly gripped Mu Beiting’s arm and cried out, "Uncle, did you hear? This is Mo Xuehong’s carefully devised scheme. She calculated everything in advance! She’s never let go of her hatred towards us and has been waiting for the chance to get revenge! This time she took away Chu Yi with premeditation, and she definitely won’t let Chu Yi go!""No...! If she really wanted to harm Chu Yi, she would have done it in the baby bathing room! She intended to strangle Chu Yi but stopped after seeing Chu Yi’s face and then took Chu Yi away! So, she definitely won’t harm Chu Yi, don’t worry!" The usually reticent Mu Beiting spoke at length.
His words brought a sudden calmness over Ye Anxin. A strange thought flashed through her mind!
Could it be that the reason Mo Xuehong didn’t harm Chu Yi was because of Chu Yi’s resemblance to Qin Muyao? After seeing that face similar to Qin Muyao’s, she couldn’t do it?
Is that it? Could it be?
Or is she overthinking it?
After all, Chu Yi is Chu Yi, Qin Muyao is Qin Muyao! How could Mo Xuehong mix up the two people?
Seeing Ye Anxin’s gradually clearing eyes, Mu Beiting secretly sighed in relief and continued, "I’ve already instructed Pete to make arrangements. Don’t worry, I will find Chu Yi in the shortest time possible! Chu Yi is our daughter; no one can harm her without my order!"
After a bit of analysis, Ye Anxin’s emotions gradually stabilized. She tightly held Mu Beiting’s hand and made his large hand cup her small face, speaking softly but firmly, "Uncle, I believe you can definitely find Chu Yi. Promise me, as soon as there’s any news about Chu Yi, you’ll inform me immediately. Regardless of the outcome of the investigation, I want to know the latest updates anytime, anywhere!"
She knew that at this moment, she couldn’t panic or lose control! She could only pray silently in her heart, hoping Mo Xuehong still had some conscience, or that by the mere chance of little Chu Yi resembling Qin Muyao, so she wouldn’t harm her!
Otherwise... if anything happens to little Chu Yi, she vowed that even if it meant going down with Mo Xuehong, even perishing together, she would avenge her child!
Mu Beiting vowed earnestly, "I promise you!"
"Uncle, you must rescue Chu Yi, you must!" Ye Anxin threw herself into Mu Beiting’s arms, and apart from repeating the same words, she didn’t know what else to say!
At this very moment, her heart and mind were entirely filled with thoughts of her precious daughter. Thinking about her daughter’s current situation, her heart was in great pain!
.........
On the other side, after Mo Xuehong left the hospital holding little Chu Yi, she stopped a taxi at the hospital entrance. After getting into the taxi, she told the driver the address of her current rented place, then looked down at little Chu Yi in her arms!
Little Chu Yi seemed completely unaware of the impending danger and was grinning at Mo Xuehong with a bright smile!
Looking at little Chu Yi’s innocent and pure face, her thoughts unconsciously drifted to a long, long time ago!
Twenty-two years ago in the fall, after a day and night of labor, she gave birth to the beloved daughter Qin Muyao, the product of love with the man she loved!
Because it was so difficult to conceive, she cherished and was very careful after becoming pregnant with Qin Muyao!
So, after Qin Muyao was born, no matter if it was a daughter or a son, she was extremely delighted and cherished her like a beloved treasure from an early age!
She remembered that after sleeping from exhaustion, the first thing she saw upon waking was Qin Muyao’s adorable and innocent smiling face!
Seeing her smile made her feel like the happiest woman in the world! She had a loving husband and a lovely daughter! She thought the heavens finally favored her, allowing her to happily and joyfully live together with her husband and daughter for the rest of their lives!
But... but...
In just twenty-two years, her husband and daughter left her one after another!
At the moment her daughter died, her heart died with her! The only reason keeping her alive was revenge! She wanted to take revenge for her daughter’s sake!
It was Ye Anxin’s cold indifference, Mu Beiting’s stone-cold heart, and unfeeling nature that led to her precious daughter’s untimely demise at the age of twenty-two!
So, after Qin Muyao died, she temporarily left Ye Anxin and Mu Beiting’s sight to make them lower their guard. She secretly watched their every move from the shadows every day!
She was waiting, waiting for Ye Anxin to give birth!
After Ye Anxin gave birth, she would kill her daughter so that she would taste the pain of losing a child!
But... that deep-seated hatred suddenly vanished the moment her eyes met the child in her arms! Faced with the face that was identical to Qin Muyao’s when she was young and that same innocent and pure smile, she couldn’t bring herself to go through with it! When her hand was on the child’s neck, it felt as if she were holding her own beloved daughter’s neck! So, her mind went blank, she changed her plan, and left with the child!
"Heehee...!" Little Chu Yi giggled with a bell-like clear and sweet laughter as she looked at Mo Xuehong’s face!
Seeing little Chu Yi’s unguarded smile and her eyes, clear as lake water, Mo Xuehong was momentarily lost in thought, "Little one, do you know I wanted to hurt you? Yet you’re smiling so happily at me! If you knew I wanted to hurt you, would you still smile at me like this?"
Little Chu Yi seemed completely unaware of the danger, still smiling happily, her bright eyes forming crescents, warm and sweet!
Mo Xuehong kept staring at the little one in her arms for a long, long time, noticing she was only in her clothes, not wrapped in a blanket. After a moment of thought, she removed her white coat and snugly wrapped the child!
The entire taxi was silent except for the sounds of breathing and little Chu Yi’s sweet laughter!
Mo Xuehong seemed completely absorbed in her laughter, unable to extricate herself!
The taxi drove for a while before dropping Mo Xuehong off at her destination. She paid the fare and carried little Chu Yi down from the taxi, returning to her rented apartment!
The apartment was very simple, just a basic one-bedroom, as Qin Muyao was no longer with her. For Mo Xuehong, the place felt unsettlingly cold!
Mo Xuehong turned on the living room light, closed the door, and sat on the sofa with little Chu Yi in her arms!
Little Chu Yi continued amusing herself, seemingly not the least bit sleepy and not making a fuss because the person holding her wasn’t Mu Beiting!
Mo Xuehong sat with little Chu Yi for a while, but the formerly grinning little Chu Yi suddenly burst into tears!
