Chapter 324: An Encounter

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Liang Zhou did not feel afraid at that time. When she carried the baby out and looked at the baby, she had actually felt a hint of pride in her heart. The baby shared her blood, and if it were not for the complicated relationships, she would have been the baby’s grandaunt. At that time, tears threatened to roll down her face. Alas, when she saw Mu Chen rushing out of the sea of fire with Song Ning in his arms, the tenderness in her heart was crushed by reality.

As soon as Jiang Jin regained her bearing, Jiang Jin had instantly snatched the baby out of her arms. It was as though Jiang Jin was afraid she would hurt the baby. The pair of grandmother and grandson, one did not trust her and one hated her to the bones. At that moment, she felt extremely disheartened.

Nevertheless, although two months had passed, the feeling of holding the baby was still fresh in her mind. She wondered if this was also God’s punishment? She looked at the baby longingly, wondering if she could hold the baby again. With that thought in mind, she took a step forward wanting to help pull the blanket up to cover the baby. However, before her hand even touched the blanket, her hand was grabbed midway.

Sister Yu smiled and shook her head at Jiang Jin. However, the smile did not reach her eyes.

Liang Zhou withdrew her hand and smiled awkwardly before she turned around and left the room in a hurry. She did not see Sister Yu heave a sigh of relief when she left.

…

The first thing Song Ning saw when she entered the living room was Mu Qing sitting on the couch and sipping on a cup of tea. She instinctively hastened her pace; she did not even care about her shopping bags that had fallen to the ground. She asked in surprise, “Why are you here?”

When Mu Qing raised his head to look at her, his gaze was incomparably cold.

At the same time, Jiang Jin’s gentle voice that contained a hint of iciness rang from the side. “You’re back so soon?”

Jiang Jin’s voice was like a bolt of lightning that caused Song Ning’s joy to come crashing down. She quickly tried to put away the excited smile on her face immediately even if it was a little too late.

At this time, Liang Zhou finally came downstairs.

Upon seeing this, Mu Qing asked, “Did you go to see the baby?”

Liang Zhou hurriedly replied, “Yes, the baby is sleeping soundly so I only took a look before I came downstairs. I was afraid of disturbing his sleep.”

Following that, Liang Zhou gracefully took a seat next to Mu Qing before she said with a smile, “You’re back, Song Ning? What did you buy? The Old Madam just told me to accompany you out in the future…”

The awkward atmosphere lightened with Liang Zhou’s arrival.

However, Song Ning was displeased by the sight of Liang Zhou sitting next to Mu Qing. Mu Qing did not even spare her a glance. Jiang Jin, on the other hand, looked at her with a smile so she quickly tried to clear her mind of distracting thoughts. Then, she bent down and picked up the shopping bags that were scattered on the ground before replying with a smile, “I just bought some daily necessities.”

After calming down, Song Ning took a seat next to Jiang Jin before she asked, “Grandma, is Mu Chen still in the study?”

Jiang Jin replied with a straight face, “He has gone to the company.”

“Oh.” Song Ning sighed in relief inwardly.

Meanwhile, Liang Zhou laughed and said, “Young couples are really loving. Although you and Mu Chen have already become parents, you’re still so affectionate. On the day of the fire, I saw Mu Chen rushing into the fire to save you without any hesitation at all. Truly, the only person in his heart is you…”

Upon hearing these words, Song Ning lowered her head as though she was embarrassed.

At the same time, Jiang Jin patted Song Ning’s hand and said teasingly, “That’s right. Mu Chen is really in love with his wife. In his heart, his grandmother and his son aren’t even as important as his wife…”

After Jiang Jin finished speaking, she looked at Song Ning affectionately.
