Young Master Lu’s Lovely New Bride

Chapter 1023 Mist Disperses; Truth Reveals (1)

That was right. In that case, Xu Youning didn’t dare to hold too much hope but just dared to think about the possibility.

If she wanted a certain answer, she needed to verify it.

However, before she could do anything, Ah Jin had been sent to Country C, so she was not sure whether Ah Jin was on Mu Sijue’s side, and whether Mu Sijue really knew about everything she had hidden.

Now, she was finally sure that Sijue really knew everything.

The reason why she could escape Kang Ruicheng’s attention time and again was that Mu Sijue was helping her behind the scenes.

For example, this time in the hospital, she could once again hide from Kang Ruicheng because the doctor who treated her was planted at the hospital by Mu Sijue.

While the doctor appeared confident, in fact, he was not sure that he could cure her disease.

However, he could indeed help her by being the bridge between Mu Sijue and herself.

Xu Youning wiped away her tears, leaving only a smile on her face.

Right at this moment, the bathroom door was pushed open, and Mumu walked in. He looked at Xu Youning in confusion and worry. “Auntie Youning, are you crying?”

Xu Youning looked at Mumu and didn’t say anything. Suddenly, she pulled Mumu into her arms.

She held Mumu tightly as if he was a treasure that she had accidentally lost in the world, and had spent half of her life trying to get him back.

At this moment, Xu Youning didn’t know how to express her excitement and joy except through a warm embrace.

“Cough!” Mumu found it hard to breathe, wrapped in her tight embrace and his tender face turned red, but he endured it. He held his breath and asked, “Auntie Youning, are you all right?”

He felt very sad now and subconsciously thought that Xu Youning should be sad too.

“Mumu.” Xu Youning smiled and didn’t quite answer the question. “He knew that I was in the hospital. He must have been there.”

Xu Youning knew that Mumu might not understand her words.

It didn’t matter. She just needed someone to share her joy.

Mumu didn’t react immediately. He stared at her blankly for a long time before he asked, “Auntie Youning, are you talking about Uncle Mu?”

Xu Youning released Mumu and looked at him with a smile without saying anything.

She sounded like she was crying, but there was no sadness in her voice.

She was probably shedding tears of joy.

Mumu had already guessed the answer from Youning’s reaction. Then he laughed out loud as well, and even his eyes lit up. “Uncle Mu knew you were in the hospital, right? Uncle Mu is so great!”

Xu Youning nodded and agreed with Mumu’s words—be it the first part or the second.

Mumu soon thought of another question and tilted his head. “But why didn’t Uncle Mu come to you?”

Xu Youning stroked the little fellow’s head and said, “Some things are too complicated. You can’t understand even if I tell you now. You just need to know that if it had been possible, Uncle Mu would have come for me.”

“Mm, I understand!” Mumu’s young face looked so sincere as he analyzed seriously. “It must be because Daddy brought too many people. Uncle Mu was afraid you would get hurt, so he didn’t come to get you!”

Xu Youning smiled and nodded. “You can think of it that way.”

“It’s a pity.” Mumu thought about it seriously, then took Xu Youning’s hand and said, “Auntie Youning, the next time you go to the hospital, I will find a way to let Uncle Mu see you!”

The little fellow was serious. When he was serious, he might really find a way to do so.

Xu Youning thought for a moment and shook her head. “Mumu, your daddy doesn’t allow Uncle Mu to see me, so you should not take risks. Otherwise, Daddy will send you back to country A.”

Mumu had been alone in country A for so long that he found the country a little repelling. Hearing Xu Youning’s words, he subconsciously grabbed Xu Youning’s hand and said, “Well, I can’t go and look for Uncle Mu. Then what should we do?”

“Absolutely nothing.” Xu Youning smiled and told him firmly and clearly, “We should just believe in Uncle Mu.”

Mumu looked as if he didn’t quite understand. After thinking for a moment, he slowly understood. Xu Youning meant that Mu Sijue would find his way to her. They just needed to wait and see.

The little kid replied with an “mm” and nodded cooperatively.

Xu Youning took his hand and said, “Let’s go for dinner. It’s time to eat.”

Mumu was actually not hungry, but Xu Youning seemed to have a good appetite. He could only nod and follow Xu Youning downstairs to eat.

After dinner, Xu Youning suddenly felt sick and wanted to throw up several times.

At the top of the mountain, Su Jian’an had told her that nausea and vomiting were common during pregnancy, especially during the first three months, and she had vomited so badly that she almost lost the child.

Xu Youning’s situation was different from Su Jian’an’s. It was not that she couldn’t vomit, but that she couldn’t let others find out about her morning sickness.

At this time, it was a critical issue. Once she threw up, someone would definitely think of her pregnancy.

However, as everyone knew, her child had supposedly shown no signs of life. Logically speaking, it should not affect her in any way.

Once she vomited, she would immediately arouse Kang Ruicheng’s suspicions.

“Auntie Youning!” Mumu didn’t notice Xu Youning’s discomfort and shook her hand happily. “Let’s go play games, okay?”

Xu Youning thought about it. Playing games should distract her, and maybe her nausea could be suppressed.

She nodded. “Okay.”

Both of them were absorbed in the game, so they played until it was dark.

When Kang Ruicheng came back, he saw a scene that he couldn’t be more familiar with.

As long as Xu Youning really wanted to stay by his side, he could watch such a scene for the rest of his life.

Mumu noticed Kang Ruicheng and paused the game. He smiled at him. “Daddy!”

The little guy was a little afraid of Kang Ruicheng. Usually, when he saw Kang Ruicheng, he would only greet him politely. This was the first time that he had called out so excitedly to Kang Ruicheng.

Xu Youning seemed to be in a good mood too.

Kang Ruicheng looked at Mumu and asked slowly, “Mumu, is there any good news between you and Auntie Youning?”

Xu Youning heard Kang Ruicheng’s probing and her heart tightened. She was afraid that Mumu would spill the beans, but she didn’t dare to drop any hints to him.

The little fellow was smarter than she had imagined. Maybe she should trust him.

Mumu nodded. “Yes, we have super super great news!”

Kang Ruicheng smiled and continued to lead Mumu. “I also want to know; can you tell me?”

Mumu blinked. “You already know. Why do you need me to repeat it?”

“Hmm?” Kang Ruicheng looked even more confused. “When did I know?”

Mumu wrung his hands and looked at Kang Ruicheng worriedly. “The doctor said that Auntie Youning could recover. Didn’t you hear it?”

Kang Ruicheng didn’t expect the so-called good news from Mumu to be this. He forced a smile and said in an increasingly flat tone, “I thought you had other good news.”

Xu Youning put down the controller. “I’m happy with the good news today.”

Kang Ruicheng looked at Xu Youning. “Are you starting to believe in doctors?”

Xu Youning spread out her hands and said frankly, “As you said, no matter what, this is our only chance now. I choose to believe.”

Kang Ruicheng smiled with relief. He checked the time as if he were supervising Xu Youning or reminding her, “The doctor prescribed you some medicine. Have you taken the dose for tonight?”

“Not yet.” There was no expression on Xu Youning’s face. She turned to Mumu. “Can you go get it for me upstairs?”

Mumu nodded. “Of course!”

Kang Ruicheng shot Dongzi a glance. “Go and pour a glass of water for Ms. Xu.”

He wanted to see Xu Youning take the medicine. Only in this way could he make sure Xu Youning was telling the truth.

When Dongzi brought the water over, Mumu also came down with medicine.

Xu Youning took the water with one hand and the medicine with the other. She closed her eyes and took the medicine for the night according to the dosage prescribed. In the end, she still looked calm.

She swore that this was the best medicine she had ever taken.

When she was training under Kang Ruicheng’s guidance, she had suffered a lot of injuries. There was a time when she would be full after taking medicine and didn’t need any food anymore.

She was so used to the smell of drugs that it was normal for her to take the medicine without batting an eye now.

Kang Ruicheng watched Xu Youning swallow and finally the doubt and uncertainty disappeared from his eyes, so he said, “I still have something to do. You don’t need to wait for me for dinner.”

Mumu made a face at Kang Ruicheng’s back and pulled Xu Youning up. “Auntie Youning, let’s go eat. We don’t have to wait for the annoying Daddy!”

During the meal, Xu Youning had been thinking that maybe she should find a way to contact the doctor.

During the treatment, the doctor had tried his best to give her hints, hoping that she would know that Mu Sijue had already known everything she had hidden and that she was no longer alone and helpless.

She couldn’t tell the doctor directly that she had taken the hint.

However, she could use the same method to drop a hint to the doctor.

Mumu saw Xu Youning’s movements slowing down and couldn’t help tapping the cup with his spoon. “Auntie Youning, what are you thinking about?”

Xu Youning blinked at Mumu. “After dinner, go and tell your daddy I’m not feeling well.”

Mumu bit the spoon. “Are you going to pretend to feel unwell?”

“Uh-huh.” Xu Youning nodded and put her cards on the table. “I need to call the doctor, but I don’t have his number, so I can only try and trick your daddy into giving it to me.”

Mumu nodded. “I understand. I’ll help you!”

Xu Youning smiled and gave the little fellow a high five.

After dinner, Xu Youning went back to her room and laid down. Mumu ran to the door of the study and kept knocking. “Daddy, Daddy!”

Hearing Mumu’s voice, Dongzi walked over and opened the door. “Mumu, what’s wrong?”

“I’m looking for Daddy!” Mumu directly walked past Dongzi and entered the study. “Daddy, Auntie Youning is not feeling well. Go and see her!”

Kang Ruicheng suddenly stood up, and his face became cold and serious in a second. “Where is Auntie Youning now?”

Mumu looked like he was about to cry and said in a tearful voice, “She’s in the room. Daddy, hurry up, go to Auntie Youning. Boohoo…”
