Chapter 1013 I Like You So Much

Auntie Youning, what were you looking for in Daddys study?

Xu Youning froze and didnt know how to answer Mumus question.

Should she tell him frankly that she sneaked in to find evidence of Kang Ruichengs crimes so that she could send Kang Ruicheng to prison and bring him to justice?

No matter whether Kang Ruicheng was a good father, Mumu loved him.

If she told him the truth, he would regret helping her, wouldnt he?

However, she could not conceal it forever.

When Mumu grew up, he would know that she came back this time to seek revenge.

He would eventually regret having treated her so well.

Thinking of this, Xu Youning had mixed feelings and subconsciously loosened her hold.

Mumu noticed Xu Younings hesitancy and freed himself from her arms. Auntie Youning, you dont have to answer my question. Im happy that youre fine, he said.

Xu Younings eyes reddened even more. She closed her eyes to hold back her tears and it was only after a long while that she could finally open her eyes. She looked at Mumu and said, Mumu, Im sorry.

Mumu pursed his small lips and reached out to hug Xu Youning. He said in a low, sobbing voice, Auntie Youning, you have to protect yourself and dont let yourself be discovered by Daddy.

He had already guessed that Auntie Youning went into Daddys study to find something that Daddy didnt want anyone to find out.

However, Auntie Youning still went in.

Compared with Kang Ruichengs secrets being exposed, Mumu was more worried that Xu Youning would be discovered.

Although Mumu rarely lived with Kang Ruicheng, he understood the killing trait of Kang Ruichengs character.

No matter what Xu Youning was looking for, he didnt want her to be discovered, because once she was, she would be in danger.

Mumu hoped that Xu Youning could live well, even if they would never meet again after she left this time.

Xu Younings mind was full of Mumus statement dont be discovered by Daddy, and she almost cried. In the end, she tried her best to stop herself from crying and said, Okay, I promise you.

Mumu released Xu Youning and looked at her seriously. Uncle Ah Jin and I will help you to leave this place. Auntie Youning, go back and find Uncle Mu.

Yes, Mumu knewfor Xu Youning, the only safe place to be was with Mu Sijue.

In the end, Xu Youning couldnt help bursting into tears.

Mumu wiped away Xu Younings tears and pursed his lips with a smile. Auntie Youning, Ill miss you.

Xu Youning held the little guy in her arms, and her heart melted.

For a moment, she didnt want to leave. If she had to leave, she wanted to take Mumu with her.

She couldnt let go of Mumu. She wanted to see this little guy grow up and have his own life.

However, the current situation did not allow her to have so many choices.

If she wanted to protect her child and survive, she could only let go of Mumu and leave the Kang family.

She was destined to be indebted to Mumu forever.

Mumu reached out and gently wiped away Xu Younings tears. Auntie Youning, dont cry. If Daddy suddenly comes back, he will think that I bullied you. I dont want to admit that I bullied you. I like you so much!

Xu Youning couldnt help laughing and nodded. Okay. I wont cry.

Take me to have a shower! Mumus lovely smile returned to his face in a second, and he looked as innocent as usual. I want to go to bed early! Uncle Ah Jin said that children who go to bed early will grow up quickly!

Xu Youning took the little fellow to the bathroom and asked, Do you believe in Uncle Ah Jin?

I do! Mumu pushed open the bathroom door and looked at Xu Youning innocently. Uncle Ah Jin wont lie to me!

Xu Youning didnt speak, but sighed in her heart

She didnt know if it was a good thing that the little guy was so naive.

She only hoped that Mumu would never be hurt.

After the shower, Xu Youning and the little fellow both calmed down.

Mumu drank the milk obediently and soon fell asleep.

After experiencing the near-scare, Xu Youning had no energy to deal with anything. Not long after she lay down, she fell asleep as well.

Before falling asleep, Xu Youning thought that if there was a chance, she should talk with Ah Jin.

If Ah Jin was really on Mu Sijues side, with Ah Jins help, she might be able to escape from the Kang family house.

Xu Youning didnt expect that at breakfast the next day, there was no sign of Ah Jin in the house.

Halfway through her meal, she pretended to ask casually, Wheres Ah Jin?

She was not afraid of arousing Kang Ruichengs suspicions. During this period, Ah Jin had always been with them during breakfast.

Ah Jin had suddenly disappeared today. It would not be strange for her to ask about him.

Kang Ruicheng said while eating, I have some affairs to deal with in Country C, so I sent Ah Jin there. What? Do you need him for anything?

No. Im just curious about why he isnt here today. Xu Youning quickly diverted her attention to something else. Todays porridge is very delicious. Mumu, what do you think?

Yes! Mumu nodded and gave Xu Youning an approving smile. I like it too!

Xu Youning smiled and gave Mumu a high five as if she didnt recall that she had mentioned Ah Jin and in the blink of an eye, she had forgotten about Ah Jin being sent abroad.

Seeing that Xu Younings attention had been diverted, Kang Ruicheng didnt say anything more and left after breakfast.

In fact, it was not so easy for Kang Ruicheng to ignore Xu Younings actions.

As soon as he got in the car, Kang Ruicheng ordered Dongzi, Pay attention to A Ning during this period of time.

Dongzi didnt understand and asked blankly, Brother Cheng, is there anything wrong with Ms. Xu?

Kang Ruicheng remembered when Xu Youning was in the study yesterday afternoon.

When he found out, Xu Youning didnt look guilty or panic at all. Later, Mumu suddenly appeared and after he checked the surveillance video, Xu Youning was no longer under suspicion.

However, this couldnt dispel his suspicions.

If he hadnt come back, who could guarantee that Xu Youning wouldnt have rummaged through his study?

Im not sure yet. Kang Ruichengs eyes darkened. But you cant be too careful.

Dongzi nodded and said, I see. I will pay attention to it. Then he started the car.

After the car drove out of the city, Kang Ruicheng continued, Also, if you have time, carefully filter the surveillance footage of yesterday afternoon to see if there is anything wrong.

The Kang family was heavily guarded, and there had never been any mistakes. Kang Ruicheng had never checked the surveillance footage.

But this time, he asked Dongzi to filter out the surveillance footage from yesterday.

Could it be that there was something wrong within the Kang family?

Thinking of Kang Ruichengs order to pay attention to Xu Youning, Dongzi soon thought of something. He s.h.i.+vered inside and replied seriously, I see!

Kang Ruicheng didnt say anything, and his eyes became gloomy.

Should he find out that Xu Youning was up to something, he swore that from today on, it would be the countdown to Xu Younings death.

In the old house, Xu Youning didnt lower her guard either.

After Kang Ruicheng left, Xu Youning handed Mumu to one of his men, locked herself in the room, and sorted out everything.

Ah Jin was working for Mu Sijue. He had helped her several times at the most critical moments, which showed that Mu Sijue really knew what she was hiding.

Besides, Ah Jin worked for Mu Sijue, so it was not difficult to understand why he seemed to hate her so much before.

Ah Jin probably thought that she had killed an innocent baby as Mu Sijue did.

If that was the case, she thought she knew when Mu Sijue had discovered the truth.

It was probably when Ah Jins att.i.tude toward her had suddenly taken a turn for the better.

Although she couldnt be sure how Mu Sijue knew the truth, at least, she was no longer alone and helpless.

However, even so, her situation was not optimistic at all.

The reason why she was able to escape yesterday was that Ah Jin had helped her modify the surveillance footage.

However, according to Kang Ruichengs skeptical nature, he would not believe everything so easily. Next, he would pay attention to her actions.

That was to say, she couldnt take any action from now on.

Otherwise, once Kang Ruicheng found something wrong, she would be dead meat.

In addition, if she guessed correctly, Kang Ruicheng would ask someone to filter out the surveillance video, and that person would likely be the meticulous Dongzi.

Dongzi was good at it. If he paid attention, he would soon find that there was something wrong with the video, and Kang Ruicheng would immediately know that she was guilty.

Most importantly, Ah Jin had been transferred overseas and there was no way for him to help her.

She only had two choices. She could either find a way to erase the traces of the video being tampered with or escape before Dongzi found something abnormal.

However, each of them was a challenge for her.

Even if she survived this ordeal, she didnt know if she could escape from the deadly disease.

Her fate was still full of unknowns.

Xu Youning took a deep breath, calmed down, and went downstairs to find Mumu.

The little fellow stood at the door of the vegetable shed with his hands clasped in front of his chest. He closed his eyes devoutly and mouthed something silently. No one knew what he was saying.

Xu Youning walked over, and Mumu happened to open his eyes.

She smiled and asked, What are you doing?

Im praying! Mumu looked up at the sky and said, I hope that the next time you encounter danger, the angels will help you.

Mumu still believed in fairy tales and he also believed in the existence of angels.

Xu Youning smiled and stroked the little fellows head. I dont need an angel. You are my little angel.

Well! The little fellow pulled Xu Youning into the vegetable shed and asked in a low voice, Auntie Youning, is Uncle Mu still at the top of the mountain? I want to find him and ask him to pick you up.

Xu Youning was stunned and shook her head. He should not be at the top of the mountain now.

Mumu blinked and asked, Then where can I find Uncle Mu?

Xu Youning thought for a moment, told Mumu the address of Dingya Villas, and said, This is the address of Auntie Jianans house. If you go there, even if you cant find Uncle Mu, youll definitely find Auntie Jianan. But, you cant run around. If your daddy found out that you went to Auntie Jianans house, you wouldnt be able to explain it, understand?

Mumu silently memorized the address of Dingya Villas and nodded. I know!
