Xi Xiaye sighed deeply and finished the red wine in her glass with a frown. "Sometimes, I just can't bear to see them unhappy."

"Getting emotional? Well, it's something that had to be done, so don't overthink," he comforted her and thoughtfully poured half a bowl of soup for her. "Eat more and stop worrying. Just go with the flow. Although you can finally take a breather, you don't seem to be putting on any weight."

"I know there's no point worrying about it. Take it slow, Mr. Mu. There's a long road ahead of us. I hope Lingshi can adapt to the new city as soon as possible. Fortunately, there are projects there, so if there are any business trips, we can still visit her. Otherwise, I really can't stop worrying about her. Do you think Gu Qiwu will genuinely treat her well?"

Mu Yuchen's eyes darkened when he heard this. "If he ever hurts them, I won't let him go."

Zhuang Shurong found it hard to accept Mu Lingshi and Ah Mo's decision to leave, and it took her a while to process it. It was already one o'clock in the morning after they had dinner. Suddenly, Mu Yuchen's cell phone vibrated.

Mu Yuchen was drying his hair at the time while Xi Xiaye was still in the shower.

"Mother?"

Mu Yuchen was surprised to receive Zhuang Shurong's call.

"Yuchen, I thought you'd probably still be awake. Let's talk for a while." On the other end of the line, Zhuang Shurong deliberately lowered her voice, "Your father just fell asleep. His workload has been heavy lately, and he's been very busy."

"What do you want to talk about?" Mu Yuchen sat down by the bed and asked calmly.

Zhuang Shurong sighed. "Yuchen, is there no other way to deal with Lingshi's matter? How could she just leave like that? Although I do support her decision, for so many years, I..."

"Mother, I know you're unwilling to see her leave, but this might be the best option for them. I'm sure you don't want to see them depressed. All the things that have happened to Aunt, Lingtian, and Grandmother are pain that will constantly haunt them. Maybe a change of environment will make their lives easier, and relatively speaking, they're also safer there."

In Zhuang Shurong's eyes, Mu Lingshi and Ah Mo had been just like her own children for so many years, but they were suddenly being taken away from her. She was certainly upset and unwilling to see them leave...

"Sigh, I've been thinking about it these days and I'm just unsettled. I raised these children for years. How is it fair for Gu Qiwu to just take them away?"

"Mother, they're all your children wherever they go, so what're you worried about?" Mu Yuchen was a little surprised that Zhuang Shurong, who had always been a strict mother, would say things like that. If this happened in the past, he probably could not understand it, but now that he was a father of two children, he could empathize with her feelings.

"How could I not be worried? You knew Lingshi wasn't in a good place before this, so I can't just let her go. Can't she just wait until the baby is born first? It's her first child, and if no one can take care of her when she needs help, it will take a toll on her body in the future."

"Xiaye just mentioned that Aunt Lin should follow her. Don't worry, Mother. We can work this out, so don't think too much. You should rest early. I'll go back with Xiaye tomorrow."

"Okay, we'll talk about it when you come back."

The mother and son then hung up the phone.

"Was that Mother?" Xi Xiaye sat down next to him and glanced at him suspiciously, "It's already so late."
