Little Ye Shu looked at the doll in the girl’s hands and was extremely envious.

She held her mother’s hand. “I want a doll too.”

The little girl seemed to have noticed Ye Shu. She jumped off her father’s leg and ran to Little Ye Shu to show off.

“Look! Daddy bought this doll for me!”

“A doll that only I can have!”

The girl giggled happily but little Ye Shu felt very sad. She reached out to snatch the doll, but her mother pulled her back.

Little Ye Shu looked at her mother with tears streaming down her face. “Mommy! I want a doll too!”

Her mother stared at the girl and said to Ye Shu, “You’re just an illegitimate daughter. You can’t snatch her things! Do you understand?”

Little Ye Shu looked at her mother with tears in her eyes. She didn’t understand why despite being a child with parents, she couldn’t have a doll.

Ever since then, her mother would often bring Ye Shu to the Ye family.

Although Madam Wang disliked them, little Ye Shu was very happy. Because she could see her father more. It was also because every time she went to the Ye family, her mother would be very happy! Ye Shu knew that her mother must be like her, happy to see her father!

…

Ye Shu slowly woke up from her dream with a smile.

She looked up and saw her mother, who was still lying quietly under the hospital blanket with tubes attached to her body.

Ye Shu sighed and got up to get some hot water for her mother. She skillfully wiped her mother’s body.

Ever since Ye Shu paid for the hospitalization fees, her mother had switched to a better ward.

In a better environment, Ye Shu believed that her mother’s illness would get better faster. There was only Lu Fen and another patient in the four bed ward. This afternoon, the other patient was discharged, so only Lu Fen and her daughter were left in the room.

Ye Shu could finally let herself have a good rest in an environment without strangers.

At night, Mu Xiao rushed to the hospital with hot porridge.

“Where did you go last night?” Mu Xiao asked as she scooped some porridge for Ye Shu.

“I…” Ye Shu did not know how to reply.

“Have some porridge first. Tell me when you’ve thought it through!” Mu Xiao said as she placed the bowl in Ye Shu’s hands.

“You know that I have sharp eyes. Don’t try to hide anything from me!” Mu Xiao stared at Ye Shu and said solemnly.

Ye Shu looked at Mu Xiao’s serious expression and smiled bitterly. She knew that Mu Xiao really cared about her.

She also knew that Mu Xiao, who had been her classmate and best friend for many years, could notice what was amiss with just one look.

Ye Shu lowered her head and looked at the steaming porridge in her bowl. “I met a man in a hotel last night.”

“A man? What kind? Is he handsome?” Mu Xiao immediately perked up and asked.

Ye Shu was confused by Mu Xiao’s series of questions.

“Tell me, what did you guys do after you met?” Mu Xiao said as she raised her eyebrows suggestively at Ye Shu.

Ye Shu gripped the bowl tightly and tried her best to adjust her breathing before saying, “I was drugged yesterday, so I didn’t see what that man looked like.”

“Drugged?” Mu Xiao screamed. “Who is it?”

“It’s Ye Lan, right?” Mu Xiao immediately reacted and said angrily, “It must be her!”

Ye Shu shook her head and said, “I can’t be sure, and there’s no evidence…”

“Then you…” Mu Xiao looked at Ye Shu with heartache.

Ye Shu knew that Mu Xiao must have been humiliated by the man who drugged her.

Ye Shu shook his head and said, “I don’t think it was that man.”

She knew very well that Ye Lan would not arrange for a big shot to have a one-night stand with her. She would have arranged for Lin Cong to do the deed.

Mu Xiao held Ye Shu’s hand and comforted her. “Are you alright?”

Ye Shu patted Mu Xiao’s hand comfortingly. “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

“That person yesterday was the big shot who was looking for the surrogate mother,” Ye Shu said, feeling that it was too much of a coincidence.

“What a coincidence!” Mu Xiao exclaimed.

Ye Shu nodded. In order to reassure Mu Xiao, she forced out a smile. “I’ve confirmed it with Mr. Qin who signed the contract with me today.”

“If I get pregnant this time…” Ye Shu said and took a deep breath.

“It would be even better if you could get pregnant like this.” Mu Xiao said as she regarded Ye Shu with pity.

“I didn’t want to tell you about the surrogacy at first, but I saw that you needed money so badly, and I…” Mu Xiao said, looking upset.

“No! You’ve helped me! Really!” Ye Shu said as she held Mu Xiao’s hand tightly..
