Shuxin looked at Mu Ning Jing, who had been sitting on the sofa in a daze all afternoon. Her brows furrowed with worry. Mu Ning Jing hadn't said a word since she arrived. She had been unusually quiet. Shuxin knew that she was just suppressing all her anxiety and worry in the bottom of her heart. She didn't want her to worry.
Shuxin walked over and sat down beside Mu Ning Jing while supporting her big belly. "Ningning, do you want to eat something?"
Mu Ning Jing wanted to say that she wasn't hungry, but when she saw Shuxin's round belly, she swallowed her words. She didn't want to make her worry, so she nodded. "Okay."
Shuxin asked someone to set up the table. As the two of them were eating, there was a sound at the door. Mu Ning Jing turned her head and saw Huo Yanqing walk in. She immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands and quickly walked over. "How's Tingxi?"
Huo Yanqing's brows were grave. "Hu Xin 'er is dead. All the evidence shows that Tingxi's men did it. There's also Huang Hong's confession. There are both witnesses and evidence. This matter is a little tricky."
Mu Ning Jing's face instantly turned pale. She stumbled back a step and shook her head as she said softly, "No, Tingxi said he didn't kill anyone, nor did he order anyone to kill anyone. I believe him."
Shuxin followed over and supported Mu Ning Jing. She glanced sideways at Huo Yanqing. Her meaning was obvious: Can't you be more tactful with your words? She then turned her head to comfort Mu Ning Jing. "Ningning, don't worry. Everything will be fine. We'll definitely find out the truth and rescue Shen Tingxi."
Mu Ning Jing looked at Huo Yanqing with hope in her eyes.
Shuxin hurriedly shot Huo Yanqing a look.
Huo Yanqing nodded. Shen Tingxi was his brother. Even if Shuxin didn't say anything, he would do his best. How could he let him be wronged?
…
Yu Meiqi watched as Mu Yiqing entered the walk-in closet. She stared at the door quietly with a hint of mockery in her eyes. After a while, she watched as Mu Yiqing changed his clothes and rushed out. She then said slowly, "Where do you think you're going so late at night?"
Mu Yiqing walked quickly to the bedroom door. "There's an urgent matter at the Municipal Bureau that requires my attention."
Yu Meiqi got up slowly and said unhurriedly, "Has Mu Ning Jing's case been escalated to the Municipal Bureau?"
Mu Yiqing suddenly stopped in his tracks. He turned around and looked at Yu Meiqi guiltily. "What are you talking about?"
"I'm talking nonsense?" Yu Meiqi's lips curled into a sneer as she slowly walked towards Mu Ning Jing. "Shen Tingxi was arrested for instigating a murder. Are you in a hurry to comfort Mu Ning Jing?"
"Meiqi, you misunderstood …"
"It's really touching that a father is so worried about his daughter."
Yu Meiqi's casual words made Mu Yiqing freeze on the spot. His face instantly turned pale. "Meiqi, you …"
"How would I know, wouldn't I?" Yu Meiqi stood in front of Mu Yiqing and looked at him with her arms crossed. "You told Dad about this and made use of the fact that he valued the Yu family's reputation to make him help you hide it and lie to me. Then, you gave money and a house to your illegitimate daughter. Do you take me for a fool?"
Mu Yiqing was stunned for a moment before he flatly denied it. "Meiqi, I don't know what you're talking about …"
"You're still trying to deny it!" Yu Meiqi roared. The anger that she had been suppressing erupted like a volcano. Her face turned red and a little ferocious. She suddenly turned around like a whirlwind and ran to the sofa. She took a document from the coffee table and threw it at Mu Yiqing's face.
Mu Yiqing closed his eyes because of the paper. When he opened them again, he saw the white paper with black words scattered on the ground. He glanced at it casually and his pupils suddenly shrank. It turned out to be a paternity test report!
He squatted down in disbelief and picked it up. He looked at it carefully one by one. The more he looked, the uglier his face became. When he saw the result, his hands were trembling. Although Mu Yiqing was 99% sure that Mu Ning Jing was his and Zhao Xiangping's child, he still felt shocked when he saw the result.
"Why aren't you talking? Keep lying! Keep lying! "Yu Meiqi yelled at Mu Yiqing.
Mu Yiqing got up and quietly looked at Yu Meiqi for a few seconds. The emotions in his eyes were complicated and his expression was conflicted and painful. "Meiqi, I didn't know that Ping 'er was pregnant with my child …"
"Now that you know, you want to acknowledge your daughter and abandon me and Nana?" Yu Meiqi interrupted Mu Yiqing one after another.
"Meiqi, I didn't want to abandon you and Nana. I let Ping 'er down. I just want Ningning to live a better life and try my best to make up for my past mistakes."
Yu Meiqi was so angry that she laughed. "She's already dead. Don't you think it's funny? Do you regret being with me back then? Do you think that I broke you and Zhao Xiangping up? So you deliberately got close to Mu Ning Jing to take revenge on me and disgust me, right? "
Mu Yiqing frowned. "Meiqi, I didn't want to disgust anyone. No matter how you pestered me back then, I was the one who made the decision in the end. I let Ping 'er down. I just want to treat Ningning well and make up for it … "
"Don't even think about it!" Yu Meiqi yelled hysterically, "I, Yu Meiqi, can't tolerate even half a grain of sand in my eyes. I won't let that little bitch drive a wedge between my family and yours. You can only love me and treat our children well."
Mu Yiqing's eyes were mixed with some unreasonable emotions. "Meiqi, you can't go too far."
"I'm going too far?" Yu Meiqi sneered. "Isn't it too far when you and my father deceived me? Isn't it too far when you gave money and a house to your illegitimate daughter behind my back? What do you take me for? A fool? "
Mu Yiqing listened to Yu Meiqi calling his illegitimate daughter and frowned tightly. "Meiqi, Ningning had a child before I married you. She's not an illegitimate daughter."
Yu Meiqi didn't expect Mu Yiqing to say that. After a moment of shock, tears welled up in her eyes. "She's not an illegitimate daughter? Do you mean that my son and daughter are shameful illegitimate children?"
"Meiqi, you know that's not what I mean …"
"Then what do you mean? Do you want to have both? "
"I can refuse to acknowledge Ningning. I can just be relatives with her in private, take good care of her, and do my duty as a father …"
"In your dreams! I won't agree! "
Mu Yiqing stared at the woman in front of him who had completely exploded like a wild beast for a moment. Without saying anything, he turned and walked to the door.
Yu Meiqi caught up with him in a few steps and grabbed his arm. "You're not allowed to see her."
Mu Yiqing had a fearless expression on his face. He pulled his arm out of Yu Meiqi's grip and said calmly, "You should rest early. I'll be back soon."
Yu Meiqi said to Mu Yiqing's back, "This matter is not over. Shen Tingxi's arrest is just the beginning. I won't let that little b * tch appear in front of me."
Mu Yiqing paused and looked back at Yu Meiqi in disbelief. "You're behind Shen Tingxi's incident?"
