When Liang Zhou reached up to wipe the tears off her eyes, Xiao Yu handed her a piece of tissue to wipe her face before she softly said, “Madam, don’t be sad.”

Liang Zhou smiled at Xiao Yu. Although Xiao Yu was not related to her by blood, Xiao Yu treated her sincerely. In this world, one had to be careful with whom one treated sincerely. If it was the right person, it would be fine, but if it was the wrong person, one would only suffer.

Liang Zhou wiped her tears away and calmed herself down before she slowly said, “I’ll tell you a story, and you have to listen carefully. It’s all my personal experience, and it’s very strange.”

Liang Zhou swept her gaze across the crowd, and when she saw that everyone was looking at her curiously, she smiled. A hint of satisfaction could be seen in her smile.

“Where should I begin?” Liang Zhou thought about it seriously for a moment before she looked at Mu Chen and Song Ning. Then, she said, “Let’s start with the time when Song Ning was about to give birth. All of us had been paying attention to Song Ning. As soon as we received news, we rushed to the hospital immediately. When I said ‘we’, I was referring to myself and my husband, Mu Qing.”

“In order to return to the Mu family, he had really thought of many ways over the years. He, naturally, wouldn’t let go of any opportunity to curry favor with the Old Madam. Song Ning was giving birth to the eldest great-grandson of the Mu family, how could he not be present during such an important moment? He also tipped off the media, asking them to take pictures of us with the Old Madam, Young Master, and the Young Madam to show our harmonious relations for future publicity.”

Liang Zhou looked at Mu Qing before she turned away and said, “I’d never doubted him in the past. In my mind, he was not good at scheming and not very capable. To me, his greatest strength was that he loved me with all his heart. After all, he gave up his family and wealth to be with me. It was because of me that he was chased out of the family by Old Madam Mu. I thought to myself that it had to be blessings from several lifetimes that I met a man who loved me more than he loved wealth.”

A hint of melancholy could be heard in Liang Zhou’s voice when she spoke, capturing everyone’s attention.

“We were waiting outside the delivery room for quite a while before we finally saw the baby being carried out. It was a boy. Everyone was overjoyed. I really envied Song Ning. Her life is really good. She gave birth to a boy for her first pregnancy. With that, her status would be even higher in the Mu family. We followed the baby as the baby was brought away while Mu Chen stayed back to wait for Song Ning to be wheeled out of the delivery room. As always, there was only Song Ning in Mu Chen’s eyes.”

Liang Zhou sighed softly and closed her eyes before she said, “We were all basking in joy when we suddenly heard someone crying out,

‘Fire! Fire!’ We panicked. Cheng Che carried the Old Madam while Mu Qing watched from the side. Sister Yu isn’t young anymore; it was already good enough that she could take care of herself. At that time, the newborn was handed to me. When I held the baby in my arms,

I thought he was truly precious. At that time, I thought to myself that even if I was burned to ashes, I had to protect the baby well.”

“When we finally escaped from the fire, we suddenly remembered that no one carried Song Ning out. She had just given birth, and her body was weak. How could she escape from the fire alone?”

Liang Zhou paused for a moment.

Everyone was engrossed in the story.

“In the end, we saw Mu Chen carrying Song Ning out. Fortunately, she was completely unharmed. It was great!” Liang Zhou looked at Song Ning, who clearly had faint burn marks on her face.

Everyone grew suspicious. Song Ning clearly had burn marks on her face; how could she be completely unharmed?

Liang Zhou’s words completely raised everyone’s curiosity, and she smiled in satisfaction before she continued to say, “Since I had a hand in saving the baby, the Old Madam’s attitude toward me began to thaw. For that reason, I began to visit the family house more often. At that time, I heard that the Young Madam was so shocked by the fire that she could not produce any breast milk. Hence, the baby was given formula milk.”
