Cutesy Wife Sweet Like Honey: Mr. Mu's Nightly Dote!

Chapter 899: Chapter 942: Unable to Tell Real from Fake

Ye Anxin’s face turned somewhat heavy after hearing her mother’s words. She opened her mouth, wanting to tell her mother the truth but couldn’t bear to, afraid she couldn’t withstand the blow.

Seeing her hesitation, Ye Anxin’s mother unconsciously frowned and looked at her!

This glance left her stunned, and she couldn’t help reaching out to touch the right side of Ye Anxin’s face, exclaiming in surprise, ”Anxin, how did your face completely heal in just half a day? There’s no sign of any marks at all?”

Hearing this, Ye Anxin’s expression stiffened further, not knowing how to explain!

Originally, she didn’t want to tell anyone about Ruan Zhitong swapping identities with her; she was afraid they’d worry about her!

However, for her mother, if she didn’t give a reasonable explanation, she would surely keep looking for Ye Shan! That kind of person, Ye Shan, wasn’t worth her mother wasting time on.

Helpless, Ye Anxin could only say, ”Mom, you should stop looking for Ye Shan from now on. That scum isn’t worth your time. Forget him; he won’t ever come back!”

Seeing her daughter’s intense emotions and such firm words, Ye Anxin’s mother gradually sensed something amiss, ”Anxin, did something happen that you don’t want to tell me? I might not be very smart, but I’m not stupid! Your face was clearly so swollen before, with scars from falling into the river, yet in a few days, it’s completely healed? And do you know something about your father’s disappearance? Tell me! No matter what happened, I have the right to know!”

Ye Anxin sighed, trying to persuade patiently, ”Mom... I just don’t want you to worry about me, so I chose not to tell you! Anyway, just listen to me, don’t think about Ye Shan anymore, and completely erase him from your life! Such a person isn’t worth worrying about!”

The more Ye Anxin insisted, the more uneasy her mother felt, ”Anxin, the more you refuse to speak, the more I’ll let my mind wander! If you want me to live peacefully, tell me everything! Otherwise... I won’t eat or sleep peacefully!”

”...!” Seeing her mother so persistent, Ye Anxin bit her lip, unsure whether to speak or not!

Seeing her silence, Ye Anxin’s mother was on the verge of tears, ”Anxin, are you deliberately trying to make me worry? Speak up!”

Seeing her mother’s insistence, Ye Anxin could only sigh inside helplessly and speak, ”Fine! I’ll tell you, but don’t get angry or blame yourself! After all, the incident has passed!”

”Okay, I promise you! I won’t get angry or blame myself!” In order to know the truth, Ye Anxin’s mother nodded in agreement, her hand trembling slightly from nervousness as she held Ye Anxin’s.

Ye Anxin’s thoughts returned to that morning over half a month ago, slowly beginning to explain, ”Mom, over half a month ago, on that day, I took Chu Yi to find you and planned to have a meal with you! Then, while climbing the stairs, I met Ruan Zhitong, uncle’s first love! She disguised herself exactly like me, mimicking even my voice, personality, and expressions to win over uncle. She conspired with Ye Shan to knock me out, hide me, and then pose as me to come see you! The person dining with you on the boat restaurant that day wasn’t me but Ruan Zhitong! Afraid that uncle would notice something wrong, she staged a scene on the boat, deliberately calling the vengeful Su’s mother over and having a dispute with her, then took the opportunity to fall into the river, intentionally harming her face to prevent uncle from recognizing her!”

Upon hearing this, Ye Anxin’s mother, reddened from anger, couldn’t help but grip Ye Anxin’s hand harder, saying furiously, ”How could this happen? Why is that woman so terrifying! No wonder little Chu Yi refused to go to her, crying whenever she was held! I even believed her then, thinking Chu Yi was scared by her appearance! It turns out it wasn’t that at all! She was a fake! Adults might be deceived by appearances, but children are pure and rely on feelings! Chu Yi knew from the start, the woman holding her wasn’t her mother, so she cried every time she was picked up!”

Ye Anxin gently patted her mother’s hand, speaking tenderly, ”Mom, don’t be angry! She’s been scheming for four years just for this day! No matter how much I tried to avoid this disaster, it couldn’t be avoided!”

Ye Anxin’s mother asked through gritted teeth, ”What happened after that?”

Ye Anxin continued, ”Ruan Zhitong pretended and played a scene with Ye Shan to make you forgive him, letting Ye Shan find me, then persuading you to forgive Ye Shan, just to keep him at your side as an informant, monitoring your whereabouts at all times! If you discovered she was fake, Ye Shan could immediately inform her! From the beginning, Ye Shan and her had ulterior motives! Ye Shan’s good performance was completely under her control!” Pausing, Ye Anxin then continued, ”Though Ruan Zhitong disguised herself well, uncle still recognized she was fake, calmly placating her while secretly searching for me! Once uncle found me, he brought me back! As for Ye Shan, uncle dealt with him!”

”Serves him right, he deserves it, that kind of person deserves to die, Beiting did well! I wished back then he would have ended him...” Saying this, Ye Anxin’s mother suddenly burst into tears, clutching Ye Anxin’s hand tightly, saying sorrowfully, ”Anxin, I’m sorry; I found such a man back then, causing you so much suffering! It’s my fault, I couldn’t protect you properly! I don’t deserve to be a mother, couldn’t even recognize my own daughter and treated an enemy with affection for so long! Anxin, I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”

”Mom...!” Seeing her mother crying so sadly, Ye Anxin hurriedly grabbed tissues from the coffee table to wipe her tears, comforting her while doing so, ”Mom, don’t blame yourself! This whole incident is not your fault at all! It’s all that woman’s fault, her scheming ran deep! She didn’t just deceive you, even uncle was initially fooled by her!”

Ye Anxin’s mother wiped her tears and continued, ”If I’d realized earlier, none of this would’ve happened! Actually, that day at the boat restaurant, when she held Chu Yi, Chu Yi cried violently, not letting her hold! How foolish of me not to see something was off! It’s my oversight, had I been smarter, they wouldn’t have succeeded in their scheme!”
