"That's not true..." Her voice trembled as her face suddenly turned pale. She quietly covered her face with both her hands as her whole body started quivering as well.

"It's impossible. I cannot be Qi Qiming's daughter... I'm not..."

She started sobbing. Her throat felt stuck and she seemed to be suffocating as her consciousness was fading.

Ah Mo's expression changed. He hugged her and comforted her, "There's no proof right now. Don't make any rash conclusions. Even Master isn't sure about this, so we shouldn't scare ourselves right now."

"Rash conclusions? Right now, it all shows that it's most likely Qi Qiming, doesn't it? No wonder you stopped me from continuing when we reached this point. Did you already know? Is it really Qi Qiming? Tell me!"

Mu Lingshi took a deep breath after she let all her emotions inside her out. She stared at Ah Mo coldly. With the scar on her face seeming extremely clear right now, she looked ferocious.

"I've delivered both yours and Qi Qiming's DNA samples for a test, so we'll find out in a few days." Ah Mo held her shoulders as he explained, "Before we get the results, our guesses mean nothing. We didn't want to let you know because we didn't want you to worry. Calm down, Lingshi."

"Calm down?" Mu Lingshi snorted. "I can't stay calm! Would you be able to stay calm if you were in my position? How is it any different than betraying my own family? He's the cause of all the tragedy. Is he even worthy of becoming my father? If it really is him, I'd never forgive him!"

She suppressed her remaining rage and ran out of the room.

Ah Mo's expression darkened. It took him a moment before he chased after her.

The next morning, Mu Yuchen woke up early as usual. Xi Xiaye had become even more of a sleepyhead. Her morning sickness symptoms were pretty bad earlier on and only became better recently. Although he had been managing her diet, she hardly gained any weight. While the little chap inside her womb was growing quickly, she did not seem that much different from before. Her chin was still pretty sharp and her features were bony.

He put his hand on her baby bump as his eyes calmed down. He studied her for a while and then smiled. "You have to be a good little baby, you hear that? Otherwise, your father will punish you!"

He felt a living presence inside her and he smiled before leaving the bed a while later. He then carefully set the blanket over her.

When he washed up and went downstairs, Sis Wang and the servants were already preparing breakfast.

"Morning, Master!" Sis Wang and the servants greeted him.

Mu Yuchen responded, "Morning, you guys can take a day off today. Let me make breakfast." He elegantly unbuttoned and rolled his sleeves up.

Sis Wang beamed. "Master, are you going to make breakfast for Missus again? Well, I suppose Missus prefers the food you make. She hasn't been having a great appetite lately. Elder Madam prepared some tonics for her. However, Master, I'd like to learn something from you since you'll be leaving for some time and I'm worried that Missus isn't going to be used to it."

Mu Yuchen smiled as he nodded humbly. "Sure, after I leave, please report Missus's condition to me every day. Unless she gives explicit permission, don't let anyone come in, and don't let anyone go upstairs. Understood?"

Sis Wang nodded. "Noted, Master, don't worry."

Sis Wang still called Mu Yuchen "Master" as usual after she started staying in Maple Residence since it felt more familiar.
