Chapter 558: Chapter 558 Another Reason

"I suspect there’s another reason behind my mother’s accident," Tong Mo said.

She had been thinking about it all through the previous night and felt that something just didn’t seem quite right.

Her mother had been in a vegetative state for almost ten years, always on the same medication, but without ever developing any drug resistance. Yet, coincidentally, drug resistance occurred last night when she was supposed to go to W country to register her marriage with Li Zijue.

The two incidents seemed too much of a coincidence...

Li Zijue had already thought of this and walked up to her, telling her, "I’ve already sent someone to investigate this matter, as well as the incident where our cohabitation photos appeared at my mother’s birthday party. I’ve had someone looking for the culprit too."

"I don’t need an investigation to know who’s behind the cohabitation photos," Tong Mo couldn’t help but sneer, seemingly recalling something.

Li Zijue guessed from her expression, "Tong Nian?"

"Who else but her." Tong Mo nodded, then pouted as she looked at the man, "You’re quite the catch, my sister would love nothing more than to replace me and marry you immediately."

"I wouldn’t be interested in that sort of merchandise."

Li Zijue wrapped his arms around the sweet and delicate girl from behind and whispered affectionately in her ear, "I only like you."

Listening to the man’s confession, Tong Mo’s cheeks instantly flushed red like they were brushed with exquisite rouge, and she couldn’t help but push him away with a red face, "Stop it, my mom is still here!"

"Your mother can’t see us for the moment." The more she pushed, the tighter Li Zijue held her.

Tong Mo continued to push him away, "Even so, it’s not proper."

But the man’s hands were like iron clamps, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t pry his hands off.

"Li Zijue! Let go of me now!"

Tong Mo turned around and glared at him, slightly annoyed.

In front of an elder, to hug and embrace like this, what would people think!

Li Zijue continued to whisper in her ear, "I wouldn’t mind letting go, but you have to rest. You haven’t closed your eyes the entire night."

"But I still want to spend more time with my mother," Tong Mo said, reluctant to leave her mother, who lay there with her eyes shut in a deep sleep.

Although she was still unable to awaken, just being able to glance at her mother every so often made Tong Mo feel incredibly content.

"You’ll see her after you’ve rested properly," Li Zijue said as he picked her up horizontally without another word and carried her away.

"Li Zijue!!!"

Tong Mo was truly both amused and annoyed but couldn’t resist him. Moreover, she indeed was exhausted, so she had to compromise, "Alright, alright, I’ll go sleep, is that okay? But you must make sure someone takes good care of my mother, there must be no mistakes."

"I guarantee with my life that your mother will be absolutely safe," Li Zijue assured her.

"Then that’s good," Tong Mo finally felt at ease.

Perhaps because she had let her guard down, Tong Mo felt completely lethargic, overwhelmed with sleepiness.

And before Li Zijue could carry her to the car, she had already fallen asleep in his arms.

"What a dummy!" Li Zijue gazed at the sleeping girl in his arms, his heart suddenly softened, and his footsteps slowed down as if he was afraid of waking her.

When he reached the car, he gently placed her on the car seat and then drove towards home at the steadiest pace.

The young girl slept so deeply that she didn’t even realize when she arrived at the bed in her house.
