EndlessFantasy TranslationLu Zhou rolled her eyes before she said, “What are you saying? Is the Old Madam that kind of person? Think about how she treats Mu Chen and Cheng Che. How could she be like that? She’s very good to the Young Madam; her treatment of the Young Madam is not different from that of a biological grandmother. In fact, I understand why the Old Madam decided to look after the baby. Perhaps, it has something to do with the Young Madam’s emotional problems.”
“Emotional problems?” Mu Qing instinctively asked.
Liang Zhou nodded. “I heard Sister Yu said that after women give birth, the changes in hormones can affect them. It’s just that the Young Madam’s changes are more obvious. However, I’m really confused. It’s been a long time now, and the baby has grown so big, but why is the Young Madam still like that? Why hasn’t she recovered?”
“How can a mother be so cold to her child? What if people criticize the OId Madam in the future for being ruthless and say she stole the baby from the Young Madam? However, anyone with half a brain would know it’s not true. The Old Madam is already advanced in age; one can only imagine how tiring it must be to look after a baby. Speaking of which, I really feel the Young Madam isn’t very sensible…” Liang Zhou continued to say, as though she was talking to herself and did not notice Mu Qing’s unsightly expression. She shook her head when she finished speaking.
Mu Qing suddenly changed the topic and asked, “Liang Zhou, have you been spending a lot of time with Madam Ye recently?”
Liang Zhou looked a little confused as though she did not understand why Mu Qing would ask this question. She thought for a moment before she replied, “I don’t see her often. She has had a lot of problems recently so she always comes to me for comfort. To be honest, I don’t really want to get involved with her. However, my master has told me to be kind in order to seek blessing for our unborn child. It’s important to help others. Hence, whenever she comes to me, I’ll try my best to help her.” She scooted closer to Mu Qing as she continued to say, “Previously, she dragged me to the mental hospital with her. I really didn’t expect things to escalate. After that, I tried my best to distance myself from her. Moreover, she seems to have gone a little crazy recently that I was slightly frightened when I saw her.”
While Liang Zhou spoke, Mu Qing had been observing the changes in her expression. When he found nothing strange, he continued to ask, “Did she ask you to help her with anything?”
A confused expression appeared on her face. “Huh? Like what?”
Mu Qing lowered his gaze and thought about it for a moment before he said, “For example, did she ask you to steal anything from Song Ning? After all, Song Ning and Ye Xin resemble each other greatly.”
Liang Zhou was surprised. “You know Ye Xin resembles the Young Madam as well? That’s right! They’re really similar. Do you know that everyone’s saying that the Young Madam and Ye Xin are half-sisters? Ye Xin’s biological father is rumored to be Ning Zhe of the Ning Corporation. In any case, this is just gossip between women so you can’t take it seriously. However, there’s no denying that the two really look alike.”
Mu Qing frowned. “So Madam Ye has no intention of recognizing Song Ning as her daughter?”
Liang Zhou laughed as though she had heard a joke. “How can that be? That’s too absurd! Just because her daughter is missing, how can she use someone to replace her daughter?”
Mu Qing was speechless as he looked at Liang Zhou’s frank and innocent expression.
Although Liang Zhou was stubborn, aggressive, and troublesome, she was not a schemer nor was she very smart. She knew nothing about Ye Xin replacing Song Ning, but even she could tell something was strange about Ye Xin. If even a fool like Liang Zhou could sense it, it was likely that Jiang Jin had already sensed it as well.
When Mu Qing thought about this, he could not help but break out in cold sweat.
