Ye Xin felt annoyed again when she thought about Gao Wen. She thought Gao Wen was also a stupid woman. At such a time, Gao Wen still wanted to acknowledge her. If Gao Wen truly wanted the best for her, why would Gao Wen do such a thing?
After that, Ye Xin wondered about the situation in the Mu family before she drifted off?to sleep with her head on the pillow. She was exhausted.

Su Tong looked for Ning Dong everywhere. When she managed to get in touch with him, she insisted on meeting him immediately, saying that she had a secret to tell him.
Ning Dong had frowned when he listened to his mother. In the end, he still told her to meet him at a restaurant.
Su Tong naturally rushed over without caring about anything else while Ning Dong asked for a private room and ordered the dishes while he waited for her.
Su Tong was naturally not in the mood to eat. She arrived before the food was served and instantly told Ning Dong about her suspicion.
After dismissing the waiter, Ning Dong frowned again. He thought he had just listened to a fantasy story. As he scooped a bowl of soup for Su Tong, he said, âMom, drink some soup to calm your nerves.â
Su Tong grew even more anxious upon seeing Ning Dongâs carefree attitude. âDongdong, what should we do? We have to expose that womanâs true colors! We canât let her deceive your father. Otherwise, sheâll deceive him out of your rightful assets. We have to get rid of her. Let alone a fake, even if she were the real Ning Xia, weâd still have to get rid of her!â
Ning Dong sighed inwardly. Outwardly, he patiently said, âMom, if sheâs a fake, donât you think Father wouldâve found out about it first?â
Su Tong was briefly stunned by Ning Dongâs words. When she recovered, she said, âYour father wonât look too much into this matter. Heâs been yearning for his daughter so much that as long as his daughter is willing to call him âDadâ and come home, heâd be so happy that heâd forget about everything.?At the very least, he wonât find out for now. That womanâs goal definitely isnât simple. Iâm afraid that by the time your father finds out sheâs a fake, itâll be too late!â
Ning Dong had a hard time believing his motherâs words because it was too far-fetched. He said, âIf sheâs a fake, do you think the Mu family would be unaware? Mu Chen loves her so much so how could he not know if sheâs a fake? Mom, calm down. I have my plans. No one can take away my things.â
Ning Dong knew his mother had always been anxious about this matter; she was worried her years of hard work would go to waste with Ning Xiaâs return.
Su Tong was rendered speechless. Indeed. If Ning Xia was a fake, how could the Mu family not know about it? Ning Xia had been the Young Madam of the Mu family for a while now so how could the Mu family not know if she was a fake? However, after thinking about it for a while, she said, âNo, Dongdong. Sheâs been kicked out of the Mu family house. Perhaps, the Mu family has already discovered sheâs a fake!â
Ning Dong felt a little helpless when faced with his motherâs persistence.
Su Tong continued to say, âI must be right. Sheâs been exposed in the Mu family so she returned to our house, hoping to get a cut of the inheritance! Dongdong, you have to trust me. Trust Momâs instincts. That woman is definitely not Ning Xia! Sheâs a fake!â
Ning Dong surrendered. He said, âAlright, alright. Mom, since you said sheâs a fake, whereâs the evidence? How can we prove sheâs a fake? Even if we know sheâs a fake, if we canât prove it, thereâs nothing we can do. You want to tell Father? Will he believe you? Tell the Mu family? Will the Mu family believe you?â
Su Tong was stunned. She knew Ning Dong had a point. However, she was truly unwilling to let the matter go. She was certain that the woman at home was not Ning Xia. She would even swear on it!
Ning Dong continued to comfort her patiently.

Meanwhile, Ji An was stunned when he listened to the surveillance.
Ning Dong was in a hurry to leave so Ji An grew suspicious. Hence, he arranged for the private room to be bugged, but he really did not expect to come across such explosive news.
He thought this information was more than worthy to be rewarded by both parties he was working with.
If Su Tongâs speculation was right, then it was only a matter of time before they would be able to bring Mu Chen down. After all, how could Mu Chen remain unaffected with this matter that concerned his family?
