Chapter 370 I have to do a good job, don't I?
This time, when Mu Xiaoyu's mother went there, she learned many things that Mu Xiaoyu's mother had never known before. It wasn't that the people from the Li family hadn't told her those things unintentionally, but rather that they were very clear about Mu Xiaoyu's mother's health condition.
Given Mu Xiaoyu's mother's physical condition, Mu Pengzheng's death was already a blow to her. Now, telling her about what Mu Xiaoyu suffered in the Li family would likely be very difficult for her as a mother.
With her body already in this state, how can she recover from these repeated blows?
However, they ultimately underestimated Mu Xiaoyu's mother. If it were a few years ago, she might have been deeply affected by these events and never recovered.
However, in the past few years, not only has Mu Xiaoyu changed, but even her own mother has changed.
Indeed, compared to men, many women are very vulnerable, as was Mu Xiaoyu back then, and so was her mother.
But if someone remains unchanged after experiencing so much and constantly wallows in self-pity, then they are truly beyond redemption.
Unfortunately, neither Mu Xiaoyu nor her mother were fragile people.
She was truly heartbroken and distressed when she learned about Mu Pengzheng's situation and the grievances Mu Xiaoyu suffered in the Li family.
But after these emotions subsided, what she wanted to do most, and what she should do most, was to figure out how to change the current situation.
Mu Xiaoyu's mother talked a lot. For some reason, her health has improved a lot recently. If it were before, she would never have been able to talk so much.
"Xiaoyu, tell Mom, what's the latest news on those things you've been investigating? The people from the Li family told me a lot this time, but I still feel like something's not quite right. They must be hiding something from me. I want to know what you and Chenxu are planning, so Mom can have some idea. Otherwise, Mom is really worried."
Mu Xiaoyu didn't speak immediately. Judging from what her mother had just said, she didn't seem to know about Lei Chao.
She first glanced at her mother, and seeing the determination and worry in her eyes, she finally lowered her gaze and told her everything that she, Li Chenxu, and Lei Chao had done.
“We have always trusted the Bai family. After all, it was the Bai family who told me that Mu Pengzheng was not dead. Now we know for sure that the things the Bai family did back then were intentional. If that’s the case, then the Bai family is very likely the key to solving this problem.”
Strictly speaking, the things the Bai family did have already violated the law. Now, Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu have to do more than just guard against those who want to harm them; they also need to find evidence of what the Bai family did and continue investigating Lei Chao's descendants along the Bai family's trail.
When all three networks are connected, that will be the day the matter is resolved.
When talking about what happened during this period, and thinking back on it, Mu Xiaoyu felt a mix of emotions.
Before she knew it, a few more days of this year had passed. So much had happened in just one short year, it felt like a dream. Even now, Mu Xiaoyu still felt a sense of unreality.
Seeing the expression on Mu Xiaoyu's face, Mu Xiaoyu's mother felt even more guilty towards her.
Although she had a very good impression of Li Chenxu, and because of the care he had given her over the years and his feelings for Mu Xiaoyu, she almost regarded Li Chenxu as her own child.
Even so, Mu Xiaoyu was still the most important person in her heart.
If she hadn't agreed to the relationship between Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu back then, and had told Mu Pengzheng about it earlier, resolved the family issues sooner, and kept Mu Xiaoyu away from Li Chenxu, perhaps none of those things would have happened.
The thought of all the grievances Mu Xiaoyu had suffered made her heart ache terribly.
"Xiaoyu, I'm sorry..."
"Mom, why are you suddenly apologizing? We're mother and son, we don't have any of that kind of love. Don't say these things anymore! How are you feeling now? If you can, I'd like to go to the bank and withdraw the money. I won't feel at ease until I have it."
"No way! Look at your body now, how are you going to go out!"
Before Mu Xiaoyu's mother could speak, Li Chenxu's voice came from the doorway. He was carrying one or two exquisite lunchboxes, and his face now showed a hint of reproach, perhaps because he had overheard what Mu Xiaoyu had said earlier.
Mu Xiaoyu was most afraid of seeing Li Chenxu angry like this. Seeing him like this, Mu Xiaoyu immediately cowered.
She shrank back, her eyes darting away, not daring to look Li Chenxu in the eye, and said in a muffled voice, "I was just saying."
"You can't talk about it next time; you need to get better first."
Li Chenxu rebuked her sternly, then looked at Mu Xiaoyu's mother and called her "Auntie".
He walked to the bedside, laid out two lunches, and said to Mu Xiaoyu's mother, "Auntie, the doctor said you've been feeling much better lately, so we've had more food prepared for you today. Please eat more."
"You are thoughtful, kid."
Mu Xiaoyu's mother was always satisfied with Li Chenxu. She was a sensible person and wouldn't confuse Li Chenxu with the other members of the Li family.
Li Chenxu helped Mu Xiaoyu's mother to the small table by the window to eat. After he finished, he walked to Mu Xiaoyu's side, opened the lunchbox, and held the porridge to feed Mu Xiaoyu.
Actually, the reason Mu Xiaoyu fainted at that time was entirely because of her poor health and lack of proper rest during this period, but she was not in a state where she couldn't eat on her own.
If it were just her and Li Chenxu, it would be fine, but now her mother is also present, how could she possibly feel comfortable doing that!
She hurriedly tried to take the bowl from Li Chenxu's hands, but before her hand could even touch the rim, Li Chenxu snatched it away.
"I can do it myself!"
Mu Xiaoyu lowered her voice, afraid that her mother would hear.
What she didn't know was that even if the ward was big, it couldn't be that big, and besides, her mother was eating inside, so how could she not hear what she was saying?
The reason I haven't said anything yet is that I want to see the affection between Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu to comfort my elderly mother.
Li Chenxu smiled upon hearing this, raised an eyebrow at Mu Xiaoyu, and said, "That won't do. After all, Auntie is here, so I have to make a good impression, don't I?"
