Song Ning knew Mu Chen did not like being in the news. After thinking about it for a moment, she found a few incongruences. Their wedding banquet had not been held yet so why would Mu Chen hold a full moon banquet? Moreover, knowing Jiang Jin, Jiang Jin would have insisted on having a wedding banquet and a full moon banquet at the same time. It was impossible for them to neglect her and to only hold a full moon banquet.

Looking at Ye Xin smiling happily in the photos, Song Ning thought Ye Xin must be feeling very satisfied with herself.

Song Ning continued studying the photos until she eventually found something strange. Photos were still and unable to convey emotions. However, she could see the strangeness in her loved ones’ expressions.

For example, in the photos, she saw Jiang Jin exchanging pleasantries and entertaining the guests with a polite smile on her face. However, Song Ning had seen this smile before. It was Jiang Jin’s default smile as the former Chairman of Mu Corporation, a figure who could shake M City with a stomp of her foot. However, in front of her family, Jiang Jin’s smile was unrestrained, and when Jiang Jin smiled, her eyes would shine with a hint of mischievousness. What was strange was that in the photos, even when Jiang Jin was faced with Mu Chen and Ye Xin, Jiang Jin’s smile still seemed perfunctory.

Apart from that, there was Mu Chen as well. To others, he might seem aloof, but he was not like that with his family. At home, everyone ‘bullied’ him, even the helpers were not afraid of him. However, in the photos, his expression was cold even when faced with his family.

As Song Ning continued to study the pictures, she continued to find many abnormalities. Her baby was only held by Jiang Jin or Sister Yu. There was no picture of Ye Xin holding the baby, even her gaze did not linger on the baby at all.

It was just a few photos, but Song Ning felt as though she had become a superfluous person in the family. It was as though she was no longer in this world. She could not help but cry again when she thought about her current predicament.

When Yang Li saw the change in Song Ning’s mood, she said gently, “Ning Xia, don’t cry. Listen to me. If I’m not mistaken, everyone in the Mu family is in danger now…”

Song Ning looked at Yang Li with tears in her eyes.

Yang Li continued to say, “Think about it. Even if Ye Xin wants to become Mrs. Mu, don’t you think this is going too far? Moreover, with Ye Xin’s personality, she won’t be able to tolerate being someone’s substitute. If anything, she would rather kill you first before she continued to pester Mu Chen. She’s very confident in her charms and has never understood the difference between you and her. Ning Xia, do you understand what I’m trying to say?”

Song Ning was stunned. “You’re saying this is just a means to an end? Her goal is to harm the Mu family?”

Yang Li nodded with a grim expression on her face.

Song Ning muttered, “If she assumes my identity and stays by Mu Chen’s side, she’ll be able to control him and slowly take the Mu family down…”

Yang Li sighed in relief when she saw Song Ning had understood her words. She asked with a sigh, “Do you think her plan will work?”

“Yes!” Song Ning said confidently. Although she did not participate in the Mu family’s affairs, she was very aware of the Mu family relatives’ greed for the position of the head of the family. Previously, Mu Chen’s father had almost destroyed the Mu family. If it were not for Mu Chen’s foresight and Jiang Jin’s prestige, those relatives would have eaten the Mu family whole. In the end, all of them were punished; some of them were grateful the punishment was lenient and some were unresigned. There was no lack of those with ill intentions in the family.. With this, Ye Xin would have chances to take the Mu family down from the inside.
