Yan Xinxin was dazedly listening when Mo Chuxi’s tall and handso figure stepped into the room from the doorway.
Nurse Ye glanced at Mo Chuxi, her cheeks flushing red, then turned around and quickly exited.
Yan Xinxin stared blankly at Mo Chuxi walking toward her, while the chatter of the nurses discussing him still echoed in her mind.
A broken neck?
A ruined face?
Does that an disfigured?
She gazed at him in disbelief, her heart skipping erratically.
This man—could he really be so ruthless?
What exactly had happened back at the villa when he stayed alone with Mu Qianshui and Mu Shaoqian?
"Mo Chuxi, I have a question for you."
"I have a question for you too."
Mo Chuxi retorted as he stepped closer to the hospital bed, his deep gaze locking onto hers.
"What do you think is the most important thing for a woman?"
Yan Xinxin froze.
His eyes looked particularly serious and intent.
What is most important for a woman?
She looked at him, then at the two little ones at the foot of the bed, the answer unspoken but clear.

By chance, Ye Lirong saw the evening news reporting Mu Qianshui’s critical injuries and admission to the hospital. The following morning, she hurriedly carried a basket of fruit and rushed to the hospital.
After finding out Mu Qianshui’s room location, Ye Lirong took quick steps toward the VIP private ward.
Just as she was about to approach, she saw Ning Zitong erge from inside.
She hadn’t forgotten Ning Zitong—the sa wealthy woman who had argued with her at Ancheng University’s entrance and made her feel deeply humiliated!
Ye Lirong’s mind suddenly clicked, and she snapped to realization!
This woman claid to be Mu Qianshui’s mother. In other words, this woman was none other than the Mu family’s madam, part of one of the four great families!
Thinking about how Mu Qianshui had grown up in such an affluent household for over twenty years, and had also beco a top-tier actress enjoying imnse fa, Ye Lirong felt secretly satisfied.
Tossing this daughter away had clearly benefited her, allowing her to grow up in wealth and plenty.
The Mu family is no ordinary household—certainly not one that’s easily approachable!
After Ning Zitong left, Ye Lirong stealthily crept closer, scanning her surroundings. Once she confird no one was around, she cautiously pushed the door open and entered.
Mu Qianshui lay on the bed, unable to move her neck, with a brace supporting it.
Her entire face, except for her eyes, nose, and mouth, was wrapped in gauze, making the severity of her injuries clear.
"Miss Qianshui."
Ye Lirong approached and greeted her respectfully.
Mu Qianshui jerked awake from her thoughts, her sharp gaze cutting toward Ye Lirong.
"You? What are you doing here?"
She stared flatly at Ye Lirong, her dissatisfaction evident in her eyes, yet her voice didn’t sound particularly weak.
"I saw the news on TV, so I ca specially to visit you."
Ye Lirong plastered a smile on her face as she set the fruit basket down on the floor and moved closer to the bed.
Looking at Mu Qianshui’s current state, her brows furrowed as if distressed, her eyes moistening.
"Who on earth did this to you? How could they leave you in such a state? It truly breaks my heart..."
Ye Lirong wiped her eyes with her hand.
Mu Qianshui stared at her, her temper itching to explode. But in her current condition, she could only lie there and let out a sneer.
"You care? You care my ass! We’re not close. Get out of here and don’t let anyone know you ca to see !"
Mu Qianshui shot Ye Lirong a disdainful glare and closed her eyes.
"Leave now!"
"Miss Qianshui, you can’t speak to like that."
Ye Lirong wiped away another tear, her tone sounding disturbingly earnest.
Mu Qianshui opened her eyes, staring at Ye Lirong with bemusent.
"I can’t speak to you like that? Are you out of your mind!"
Mu Qianshui sneered, her gaze biting and haughty.
"I am Mu Qianshui, a high-profile Mu family heiress and an international A-list celebrity! You, on the other hand, are nothing but a dirt-poor wretch. What nonsense are you spouting in front of ? Just who do you think you are, and what gives you the audacity to..."
"Because I’m your biological mother!"
