Chapter 920 - Telling Kang Ruicheng the Truth

"Mumu," Xu Youning walked over, squatted down, and said to Mumu, "Uncle Dongzi is going to send Granny Tang to the hospital."

Mumu quickly stepped aside. He grabbed Xu Youning in surprise and joy and asked, "Really? Can Granny Tang go to the doctor?"

"Yes," Xu Youning nodded. She looked at Mumu and said, "I have something to tell you. Listen to me carefully."

"Okay!" Mumu looked very serious, "I'm listening, Auntie Youning. "

"Go to the hospital with Dongzi. You must make sure that he finds a doctor to check on Granny Tang's condition. Then, do you know what to do?" Xu Youning asked.

"Yes!" Mumu's eyes lit up, "I should inform Uncle Mu and ask him to take Granny Tang back. In this way, she will be safe!"

"That's right," Xu Youning stroked Mumu's hair encouragingly, "Okay, go with Uncle Dongzi."

But Mumu didn't move. He lowered his head and his eyes lost a bit of their sparkle.

Xu Youning asked in confusion, "Mumu, what's wrong?"

They had made a deal just now. Why was he suddenly unwilling to do it?

After a while, Mumu responded cautiously, "Auntie Youning, after sending Granny Tang to the hospital, I'll never see her again, right?"

He never saw Aunt Zhou again after sending her to the hospital.

Xu Youning then realized why the little guy was not willing to take any action. Instead, he could scarcely bear to part with Tang Yulan.

Mumu had been accompanying Tang Yulan in the past few days. So they should have some affection for each other, shouldn't they?

Xu Youning understood Mumu's feelings, but she had to tell him the truth.

"Mumu," Xu Youning said, "Granny Tang doesn't live here. Even if we don't send her to the hospital, Uncle Lu will take her home. And she is not comfortable now. If she goes home, Auntie Jian'an will take good care of her."

When he heard Xu Youning's words, Mumu asked, "Will Granny Tang get better then?"

"Of course," Xu Youning said firmly, "As long as she goes home, she will recover and will be back to her normal self."

Mumu twisted the corner of his clothes and suddenly asked, "Auntie Youning, has Granny Zhou recovered now? Is she all right?"

Xu Youning was very surprised. She really didn't expect that this little guy still remembered Aunt Zhou's injury and hospitalization.

Fortunately, Mu Sijue would tell her about Aunt Zhou's condition after he returned home these days.

Xu Youning patted Mumu's head and answered, "Granny Zhou is recovering. She can leave the hospital in a few days."

"Then… what about you?" Mumu looked at Xu Youning with uncertainty, "Auntie Youning, will you go back to Uncle Mu's house?"

"No," Xu Youning said, "I will wait here for you to come back after you send Granny Tang to the hospital."

Mumu's little face was full of hesitation as if he wanted to be happy but couldn't. He stared at Xu Youning's belly and asked, "But, if Uncle Mu doesn't accompany the baby, will the baby be sad?"

"The baby will understand," Xu Youning urged the little guy, "Granny Tang is very uncomfortable now. Take her to the hospital first. Good boy."

Mumu nodded and called Dongzi. His voice was full of authority as he said, "Uncle Dongzi, you can take Granny Tang to the hospital now."

Dongzi then instructed his subordinates, "Carry the old lady."

"Youning," Tang Yulan was very weak, but she still wanted to say something to Xu Youning, "You…"

Xu Youning shook her head and gestured to Tang Yulan, saying, "Auntie Tang, don't say anything more. Mu Sijue and I won't have a happy ending. I won't stay with him nor give birth to his child. If he had not trapped me with his snare, I would have come back long ago, and you and Auntie Zhou wouldn't have suffered at all."

"I'm okay. Aunt Zhou won't blame you, either. It's all Kang Ruicheng's fault. You must understand this," the more Tang Yulan said, the more she couldn't understand, "Youning, how can you…"

The child was gradually forming into a small creature in Xu Youning's belly.

How could she be so cruel as to abort the baby?

No matter how ruthless a woman was, she would be soft-hearted to her child.

Xu Youning knew what Tang Yulan wanted to say, so she interrupted her and ordered Dongzi, "Quick, take Auntie Tang to the hospital now."

The group of people moved quickly. Mumu also ran out with his long legs.

Xu Youning breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the bed in the room.

Ninety percent of what she said to Tang Yulan were lies.

She couldn't explain it to Tang Yulan clearly.

There would surely be surveillance cameras hidden somewhere in this room. Kang Ruicheng must be watching her through the monitors and could hear her conversation with Tang Yulan clearly. That was why he didn't follow her upstairs.

Once she explained the cause and effect to Tang Yulan, her secret would be exposed.

In this way, not only Tang Yulan but she would also die.

After a while, Kang Ruicheng went upstairs, pushed the door open, and went straight to Xu Youning. He said in a cold voice, "We have sent Mrs. Tang to the hospital. Mumu has gone with her. Are you relieved?"

"…" Xu Youning didn't speak.

"Now, can you tell me the truth?" Kang Ruicheng asked, "How did you come back? I don't believe Mu Sijue would let you go so easily."

Xu Youning suddenly stood up and glared at Kang Ruicheng.

Kang Ruicheng was startled by her response.

For a moment, he even felt overwhelmed by Xu Youning.

What did she want to do?

Xu Youning glared at Kang Ruicheng and said, "I should be the one asking about the truth."

Kang Ruicheng narrowed his eyes and responded, "A Ning, what do you mean?"

Xu Youning grabbed Kang Ruicheng's collar and stared at him with blazing eyes. She asked, "Do you know what Mu Sijue told me after he captured me?"

Kang Ruicheng had a nasty feeling, but he still asked rhetorically, "What?"

"He told me that you are the murderer who killed my grandma," Xu Youning's eyes were filled with incredulous shock, "Kang Ruicheng, tell me this is not true."

Kang Ruicheng looked straight into Xu Youning's eyes and said, "Why don't you doubt Mu Sijue? He knew you were pregnant. So it was very likely that he turned the facts around in order that you would give birth to the child."

"Do you think I didn't consider this possibility?" Xu Youning suddenly raised her voice, "So I'm asking you is what Mu Sijue said true?"

"No," Kang Ruicheng firmly denied it, "Mu Sijue was lying."

Xu Youning loosened her hold on Kang Ruicheng's collar and said with uncertainty, "Who should I believe between you and Mu Sijue?" She looked at Kang Ruicheng with less confidence than before.

"If you want to know, it's actually very simple to figure it out," Kang Ruicheng said, "You saw the evidence of Mu Sijue killing your grandma back then. Now Mu Sijue is trying to slander me. Did he show you any evidence?"

"… No."

The angry expression on Xu Youning's face suddenly disappeared. There was no emotion in her eyes, only confusion left.

Seeing Xu Youning begin to waver, Kang Ruicheng seized the opportunity to continue, "A Ning, you have been with me for so many years. I know very well how important grandma was to you. How could I hurt her?"

"So, did Mu Sijue really kill my grandma?" Xu Youning still looked uncertain while saying this.

"Of course it was him," Kang Ruicheng said seriously, "He also knew how much your grandma meant to you. However, he had fallen in love with you when he found out you were a spy. Since he couldn't bear to kill you with his own hands, he could only hurt your grandma to vent his anger.

"Now you are pregnant with his child. He wanted you to give birth to the child and stay with him. That's why he made me a scapegoat. A Ning, I have told you long ago that Mu Sijue is more cunning than you think."

"…"

Seeing that Xu Youning didn't respond, Kang Ruicheng continued, "A Ning, think about it carefully. What would I benefit from killing your grandma?"

Xu Youning looked at Kang Ruicheng as if she had been enlightened. Her eyes showed no confusion anymore and her look was as calm as usual.

Kang Ruicheng breathed a sigh of relief.

He was too familiar with Xu Youning's temperament. It meant that he had managed to convince her successfully.

It seemed that Mu Sijue didn't show any evidence to Xu Youning that Kang Ruicheng had killed her grandma.

Even if Mu Sijue gave the evidence, he could also explain that it had been forged by Mu Sijue.

"Well, A Ning, it's time to tell me how you came back," Kang Ruicheng asked, "Did Mu Sijue embarrass you?"

Xu Youning's face darkened. She said, "I want to tell you something."

In Kang Ruicheng's impression, Xu Youning had always been optimistic and confident. Even if she encountered any problems, she would roll up her sleeves to solve them rather than frown.

Such an expression had never appeared on her face.

Kang Ruicheng suddenly had a sense of foreboding. He asked, "A Ning, what happened?"

"When I worked undercover for Mu Sijue, I was involved in a car accident," Xu Youning said slowly, "That car accident had a severe impact on my head, which caused serious sequela."

Kang Ruicheng's pupils contracted sharply. "What sequela?!"

Xu Youning closed her eyes and paused for a long time before she continued, "Now, there are two blood clots in my brain, which are in very perilous positions. They are constricting my nerves and I can die at any time."

Kang Ruicheng felt like he had been punched on the chest. He suddenly grabbed Xu Youning's hand and said, "A Ning, don't be afraid. I'll take you to the doctor, the best doctor! If the doctors in our country can't do anything about it, I can let you be treated abroad. I'll definitely find a doctor to cure you!"

Xu Youning was not touched by Kang Ruicheng's words. She looked at him and said, "Calm down first and listen to me."

Kang Ruicheng's intuition told him that what Xu Youning was going to tell him next would be worse news.

He didn't want to hear it.

However, Xu Youning had to say it.

The following statements were the most important, which would decide whether she could gain Kang Ruicheng's trust.
