Chapter 214: Knowing the Truth

Fang Mu did not comfort Qiao Jiuyin. Instead, he opened the ward door and left on his own.
Liu Yu had just witnessed Qiao Jiuyin losing her temper at Qiao Jiusheng. She felt that it was quite awkward to stay here any longer, so she stood up and bade farewell to the others. After Liu Yu left, Xu Pingfei sighed. She took a few pieces of paper and wiped the tears on Qiao Jiuyin’s face.
Qiao Jiuyin tilted her head and looked at the white wall while crying.
When Xu Pingfei saw that she could not wipe away Qiao Jiuyin’s tears no matter what, she decided to stop.
“Jiusheng, don’t be angry. Your elder sister-in-law didn’t mean to say these words in front of you.” Clearly, the elder sister-in-law had stopped talking. She had only continued because the Second Young Master had asked her to. Xu Pingfei felt that Qiao Jiusheng did not mean what had happened today.
Qiao Jiuyin knew that Qiao Jiusheng had done this on purpose, but she could not say it out loud.
“I’m not angry at her either.” Qiao Jiuyin wiped her tears and said, “I just thought of my poor child…”
Xu Pingfei fell silent.
“That woman called Hu Yao is vicious. No matter how much trouble she makes, she shouldn’t have attacked the children.” Xu Pingfei felt even more regretful. If she had known that things would turn out like this, she would have made a move earlier and sent that woman called Hu Yao away.
Qiao Jiuyin nodded and said, “About that Hu Yao, what are you guys going to do?” Her voice was muffled, and when Xu Pingfei heard it, her heart ached.
Xu Pingfei said, “She has to go to jail. The Fang family’s grandson can’t be lost for nothing.”
Qiao Jiuyin was relieved.
Only when Hu Yao was in prison would the child’s sacrifice be worth it.

Knock!
Knock!
Inside the office, Dr. Liu heard knocking on the door. He looked up and said toward the door, “Please come in.”
The door opened with a bang, and a tall man dressed in a black shirt and black pants walked inside.
Dr. Liu narrowed his eyes and looked at the newcomer, who had walked into the room under the sunlight. When Dr. Liu saw the person’s appearance, his heart tightened. “You’re Mr. Fang?” Dr. Liu barely managed to maintain his composure, but the guilt in his eyes could not be hidden.
Fang Mu locked his eyes on Dr. Liu and strode toward him. The coldness in his eyes made Dr. Liu jump in fear.
Dr. Liu’s eyelids started to flutter.
Fang Mu strode to Dr. Liu’s desk and stared at his face. Dr. Liu could not resist his gaze. Just as the doctor was about to ask Fang Mu what was wrong, Fang Mu suddenly flashed and stood on Dr. Liu’s left.
Fang Mu quickly reached out and grabbed Dr. Liu’s head.
Then, Dr. Liu felt something cold against his throat.
He glanced down and saw a dagger in Fang Mu’s hand.
Dr. Liu’s eyelids trembled even more.
“M-Mr. Fang…” Dr. Liu’s tone was nervous and uneasy, mixed with endless fear. “Let’s talk nicely. This… this knife is too dangerous…”
Fang Mu expressionlessly looked at him.
He held the dagger to Dr. Liu’s neck and did not loosen it at all.
Doctor Liu felt as if his soul had been seen through by this man’s cold eyes.
“That stolen stillborn is my son, right?” Fang Mu’s tone was firm.
Dr. Liu had already guessed that he would ask about this, so he was not surprised.
These two days, he had been feeling uneasy and constantly worried. Finally, the moment when he would be denounced had arrived, and he felt a sense of security as if retribution had finally arrived.
The moment Dr. Liu closed his eyes, he had resigned himself to fate.
“Yes.”
When Fang Mu heard this reply, his heart ached.
