《If We Cannot Grow Old Together》C7. They Kept Their Behavior in Secrecy and Mystery
Advertisement
Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie
Mu Ziyou finds her moods changing from thunderous to exceedingly ironic — the man to whom she has been married suspects her and his father after such a long time they've spent together. How ridiculous...
She is overwhelmed by anger and gives out a dreary laughter. "Li Qiaosheng, try to imagine how disappointed your father would be if he got to know this in the heaven!"
After saying this in a deadly flat voice, she turns around and walks downstairs in determined strides.
Li Qiaosheng stays stunned and grounded for a while. Suddenly, anger rises in him. He bangs his fist on the white wall!
He would definitely roar with rage if he were not in the hospital!
Finally he gets out his phone and once again dials Xia Wanyan’s number simply ignoring the wound on his hand. He speaks in a plain and terrifying tone. "Wanyan, where is my mom? Get her on the phone. I need to talk to her.”
“Qiaosheng, I'll get Auntie on the phone. Although auntie is not yet fully recovered, the words she says now unconsciously should be true to the fact, don't you think so?” Xia Wanyan then makes the phone available for the woman lying in the hospital bed.
This woman is Li Qiaosheng’s mother, Baiyun, who accidentally fell down the stairs and got her head bumped before Li and Mu got married. Since then she has been acting like a lunatic and stayed in the sanatorium.
Therefore, when Li Qiaosheng hears that his mother can finally speak in whole sentences and still keeps on cursing Mu Ziyou and her mother, Mu Qing as an enchantress in broken sentences at the other end of the line, he gets so angry that he almost crushed his phone in the hand .

He doesn't wish to suspect Mu Ziyou in his heart, but his mother did fall down the stairs just before they got married.
And his mother did try to stop their wedding from happening.
Was it really caused by Mu Ziyou?!
A dangerous light appears in his eyes, yet he looks rather painful.
“Qiaosheng, I have been keeping Auntie’s company these days. When her mind was clear, she told me that Youyou right now is exactly the same as her mother when she was young. You also know that Uncle Li had never stopped missing Auntie Mu Qing and he had cared about even pampered Youyou so much. What’s more..." Xia Wanyan stops right there on purpose, pretending that she dare not to continue.
“Go on!" Li Qiaosheng squeezes out the words from between his teeth.
“What’s more, I also heard that whenever Uncle was free, he would take Youyou out for a drive. They kept their behavior in such secrecy and mystery that nobody knew what they were out for. Even on the day when the car accident happened, they didn’t tell Auntie Bai where they had been, did they?”
On hearing this, Li Qiaosheng is reminded of something happened in the past. It did happen several times when he came back home for dinner from the Group. He saw his father and Youyou come back together in a rush, which turned his mother into a foul mood.
He follows up Mu Ziyou unconsciously, recalling the whole picture in his mind little by little.
Considering her bad mood may worry her mom a lot, Mu Ziyou leaves the hospital against her original intention to drop in on her when comes to the floor where the common wards are located.
No sooner has she got back to the villa and is about to take a shower to get refreshed and relaxed than her husband shows up outside of the door. Li catches her taking off her clothes. Finding his wife’s perfect and sexy figure even in pregnancy, Li gets lit up inside immediately.

"Ah! Qiaosheng! Are you out of your mind?!" Hardly has Mu Ziyou got anything to cover her body when she is pushed down into the bed and is entered from behind the next second!
"Yes, I am! I should have known long before that you're never any better than your filthy mother!”
"Li Qiaosheng, how can you say it like that?" She can no more stand such torture physically and mentally. While tears are running down her face, blood begins to stream out from her lower body...
However, the place that is bleeding harder is her heart...
"My baby... Stay strong, please! Mommy will not live alone in this world if you are gone... "
With a pale face, she struggles in misery. But a familiar stun hit her suddenly and she passes out at last...
