The plane turned into a tiny black dot as it soared into the sky, disappearing into the horizon...

Xi Xiaye took a deep breath and left quietly. She drove back to Maple Residence. She planned to relax and reunite with Shen Yue and the others the next day, but Mu Yuchen just had to leave at this time.

Xi Xiaye had no idea what happened, but from Mu Yuchen's reaction, it seemed like it was extremely important. Li Si appeared uneasy as well. After some thought, she called Ah Mo.

Ah Mo was on the way back from Hospital T after sending Mu Lingshi for her checkup there.

"Sister-in-law?" Ah Mo slowed down the car and looked at his phone screen in doubt.

"Answer it. It might be something important," Mu Lingshi said from the front passenger seat.

Ah Mo parked the car by the roadside and picked up the call. "Hello, Sister-in-law?"

"Ah Mo, did your brother call you just now?" Xi Xiaye asked.

"Brother? What call?" Ah Mo was a little confused.

Xi Xiaye supposed he did not know what happened. "It's alright now. How's Lingshi's checkup?"

"We're just on our way home from the check-up. Are you two coming back for dinner?"

"He went abroad for work and said that he will be giving you a call soon. That's all for now. We'll talk later."

She hung up after a brief conversation.

"What's the matter?" Mu Lingshi asked.

"Nothing much. She asked me if Brother called me, and it seems like Brother has gone to New York. I never heard about him going abroad. Wasn't he playing golf with Father this morning? Why did he suddenly go off like that? Could something have happened?" Ah Mo looked worried.

"Brother went abroad?" Mu Lingshi frowned in surprise.

Ah Mo nodded. "Let's go back and ask around what happened. Sister-in-law doesn't sound alright. I think you should leave yourself out of this. After all, the doctor said you should stay relaxed, rest well, and have a smooth delivery."

Mu Lingshi caressed her baby bump. "I understand. By the way..."

Before she could finish her sentence, her phone started ringing. It was an unknown number, but she answered it nevertheless.

"Hello?" Mu Lingshi's voice reached the other end.

"Lingshi," a deep and familiar voice replied to her, and Mu Lingshi recognized it in the first instance...

Who else could it be aside from Gu Qiwu?

Her eyes darkened as a cold aura surrounded her. Even Ah Mo could sense it clearly.

"Lingshi, please don't hang up. Let's talk." Gu Qiwu could sense that Mu Lingshi was about to hang up, so he encouraged, "We're not going to solve the problem by running away. Let's have a talk, alright?"

Gu Qiwu was practically begging her which Mu Lingshi found ironic. "We're not really that close. We have nothing to talk about."

"No, Lingshi, we have a lot to talk about...about your mother, Mu Zi, about your brother, Lingtian, about us, and even the Mu family. I know Mu Yuchen is helping you with these issues at the moment, but I guess you wouldn't want him to shoulder all the burdens, would you? There's a lot that we need to talk about, don't you think?"
