Chapter 418: Chapter 418: Ning Yichu’s Familiar Side Profile...

Every time she met Grandma Mu’s hopeful eyes, she felt deeply guilty inside.

The night outside the window grew darker.

Ning Yichu leaned on the chair at the doorway, and without realizing it, she fell into a dazed sleep.

Li Jianbin returned to the company in the afternoon to handle some official business.

But after all, he was concerned about Old Madam Li, so he came back to the hospital after finishing up.

Unexpectedly, upon arrival, he saw Ning Yichu asleep here leaning against the chair, and was momentarily stunned.

This girl, she still hasn’t left?

He had always kept out of the children’s romantic affairs...

Therefore, regarding Ning Yichu as a daughter-in-law, he neither disliked nor particularly liked her.

But now, seeing this scene, he felt a bit moved inside.

And he didn’t know if it was just his imagination, but he found her sleeping face had an indescribable familiarity.

His eyebrows furrowed with displeasure instantly, and he instructed his assistant, "Sleeping here, what does it look like? Go wake her up and let her rest in the family ward next door!"

The assistant was about to agree.

Unexpectedly, a cold voice suddenly rang out—

"I’ll handle it!"

Li Jianbin and the assistant were taken aback.

They saw Li Lingyang’s tall figure suddenly appear.

With quick strides, he gently scooped up Ning Yichu in his arms as if he were holding a priceless treasure, walking towards the room next door.

Ning Yichu was too tired to notice anything.

Li Jianbin frowned, and his face gradually darkened.

After entering the family ward next door.

Li Lingyang carefully placed Ning Yichu on the bed.

Looking at her tired little face, the coldness on his face eased a bit, and a hint of heartache appeared deep in his dark eyes.

She was always like this, silently taking everything on herself...

He gently covered her with a blanket, sitting beside her, his gaze lingering with affection.

It was only at times like these that she wouldn’t reject him...

...

The next day.

Mu Bailang’s private villa.

The sky was not yet light, and he was woken up by Old Mrs. Mu’s call.

He was genuinely so sleepy that he couldn’t open his eyes, his sexy voice full of thick fatigue.

"Grandma, it’s only six o’clock, why are you calling me?"

After getting older, Old Mrs. Mu’s sleep became particularly short, waking up fixedly at five or six every morning, never having the habit of lying in bed even a bit longer.

Even having things on her mind, she couldn’t sleep well.

"You brat, honestly tell me, have you been fighting with Yuke?"

During this time, the two hadn’t returned to the old residence even once, when asked about each other, they always mumbled vagueness.

Mu Bailang, upon hearing this, shook off some of his sleepiness, a peculiar glint flashed through his amorous peach blossom eyes.

After the last unhappy departure with Fan YuKe, she had blacklisted him again!

He had his agent look for her, but this girl was still playing hard to get?

What a joke! Usually, it’s him who handles the women...

"Just a little quarrel, it’s nothing serious."

"I knew it! Mu Bailang, what am I supposed to say about you, now that Yuke is pregnant, can’t you just give in a little?"

Old Mrs. Mu got angrier the more she thought about it; if Mu Bailang were right in front of her at that moment, she’d definitely give him a good lesson!

"..." Speaking of this matter, Mu Bailang felt uncomfortable.

Fan YuKe hardly seemed to have anything to do with pregnancy, okay?

"Grandma, I know, I’ll see to it."

"You always say that, but why don’t you act?" Old Mrs. Mu advised, "Order some flowers, buy some gifts, apologize to Yuke, and say some nice words to ask for her forgiveness..."

Mu Bailang couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his eyes a couple of times at these words, nearly spitting out blood.

Are you kidding!

That woman is already arrogant enough.

If he apologizes, wouldn’t her tail shoot up to the sky?

"Grandma, was I adopted by you?"

By comparison, it seems like Fan YuKe is more like her real grandchild...

"If you were adopted, that would be perfect, so I wouldn’t care about you anymore!"

Old Mrs. Mu snorted lightly, disdainfully saying, "You brat, you’re not gentle or considerate to your wife at all, I really don’t know how Yuke sees in you; she’s pregnant with your child after all. As a man, is it so hard to lower your head? Anyway, here’s the deal: if in these couple of days you don’t coax my precious granddaughter-in-law and great-grandchild well, don’t bother seeing me again!"

"Grandma, you can’t—"

Before Mu Bailang could finish his sentence, there was a loud snap, and the call was abruptly hung up.

Mu Bailang stared at the darkened screen, utterly speechless.

...

A ray of warm sunlight refracted in, casting within the ward.

Ning Yichu gradually woke up, looking at the unfamiliar ceiling, she was shocked.

Last night, she was resting by Granny Li’s ward doorway, and later, she seemed to have fallen asleep unknowingly...

How did she suddenly end up here?

She frowned slightly, her gaze sweeping over, when she saw the figure half-lying on the sofa.

He was very tall, the sofa couldn’t contain him, and his legs were sprawled out...

Together with his cold and handsome face, the scene looked somewhat comical no matter how you’d look at it!

Perhaps he sensed her gaze, Li Lingyang suddenly opened his eyes, pitch-black like an abyss, seemingly wanting to pull someone in.

The moment their eyes met, Ning Yichu’s heart skipped a beat, causing a subtle shift in the atmosphere around.

Ning Yichu feigned calmness, first moving her eyes away, "Did you bring me here last night?"

Li Lingyang did not deny it, slowly sitting upright, his dark and complex gaze lingering on her face.

"Last night I came to see Grandma, and saw you asleep in the hallway; the air conditioning outside was so cold, weren’t you afraid of catching a cold? Hmm?"

"..." Ning Yichu had only wanted to rest for a while, she hadn’t expected to fall asleep.

"And you? Why did you stay here?"

Li Lingyang’s eyes darkened slightly, he said faintly, "It was too late, so I had to make do here a bit; keep resting, I’ll go see Grandma first!"

Ning Yichu watched his back, her mouth twitching slightly.

That excuse was a bit too far-fetched...

But really, how’s Grandma doing today?

Ning Yichu also worried about it, and after a quick freshen-up, she hurried over.

To ensure Old Madam Li receives better treatment, Li Lingyang hired an international expert team, several Western faces entered the ICU to conduct another examination...

Ning Yichu waited at the doorway.

Just then, her phone beeped with a message.

It was the private detective!

"Lady Ning, we’ve found a lead on the old butler you’re looking for!"

Ning Yichu saw the message on the screen, and her eyes lit up instantly, her heart surging with excitement.

Soon after, another message from the private detective arrived.

"Based on the clues you provided, we visited many businesses from the First Renmin Hospital to Aling Cafe, someone saw the car often used by the old madam being forced to stop in a secluded alley..."
