He Xiyan held Yuan Yuan in her arms and eyed her husband warily, as though he was about to send Yuan Yuan away.

Ye Hao was left with no other choice but to leave the room.

He could only hope that his mother would be able to make his wife feel better.

Xia Jingshu looked at her daughter-in-law and saw that she seemed relatively calm. There were still tear streaks on her cheeks but she was no longer crying. She pushed her wheelchair over and tugged at He Xiyan’s leave and said, “Yan Yan, I know you must be feeling terribly upset but since that was the decision of the court, you must be more optimistic. Even after Yuan Yuan goes to live with the Mo family, he will still be your child and you’ll still be able to visit him.”

Xia Jingshu tried to coax her gently and there was a kind smile on her face. She looked as warm and friendly as ever.

He Xiyan scooped a small spoonful of egg soup and fed it to Yuan Yuan. She didn’t speak but she did turn to glance at her mother-in-law. No one saw the despair that flashed across her face.

Xia Jingshu coughed softly when she saw that her daughter-in-law was ignoring her.

She spoke once more a little while later and said, “Let me know if you’re feeling upset. Yan Yan, all I want to say is, Yuan Yuan is ultimately biologically related to the Mo family, so it would be best if he was raised by them. Even if you can’t bear to part with him, you must still do so.”

He Xiyan suddenly turned to look at her in surprise and said, “If that’s the case, why didn’t you send Ye Hao to live with the Ye family after he was born?”

Xia Jingshu was speechless.

She froze for a moment and looked at her daughter-in-law in surprise. She hadn’t expected her quiet and well-mannered daughter-in-law to retort in such a manner.

He Xiyan rose to her feet, looked up at the ceiling and let out a quiet sigh. No one understood her feelings at this point in time and she was like a chick that had left its brood and was lost in the woods, without any sense of direction.

“Mum, forget it. I’ll make my own decisions. Thanks for coming to visit,” He Xiyan said coldly and led Yuan Yuan down the stairs, leaving Xia Jingshu alone in the room.

At the same time, at the Mo mansion.

Everyone was rejoicing at the outcome of the verdict, including the maids, Wu Xiaomin and Lin Yanyan because at the moment Li Qin was happy, she would give them all a big bonus and this bonus was almost the equivalent of their monthly pay.

Li Qin was delighted to have obtained a grandson and she was overcome with excitement.

“Have you washed all the clothes that I purchased?” Li Qin asked Wu Xiaomin beside her.

She had gone to the mall and purchased many clothes for Yuan Yuan. She had bought at least several dozen outfits and many other toys. She had also hired a highly experienced nanny.

Wu Xiaomin said, “I’ve already washed them, Old Madame.”

Li Qin nodded with satisfaction, “That’s great. Children’s clothes must be washed before they can be worn. Also, go make the arrangements. We’ll head over to the Ye castle tomorrow morning to pick up the child.”

Wu Xiaomin and Lin Yanyan both froze in surprise and looked at each other in dismay.

“Tomorrow morning?” they asked in unison because Mr. Mo had told them that they were to pick up the child on Sunday and there were still five days before Sunday. Why was their Old Madame in such a rush? She should at least give Sister He time to prepare herself mentally.

“Yes, tomorrow morning.” Li Qin said resolutely. If she could, she would have gone right now to get her grandson.
