Chapter 216: Ambition

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor:

After sending Mu Lan away, Liang Zhou entered Mu Qing’s ward.

Mu Qing was already awake. He was leaning against the headboard and flipping through a book.

“Is it done?” Mu Qing asked.

Liang Zhou nodded. “Mu Lan saw with her own eyes that Song Ning had a stomachache. The doctors and nurses were treating her when Mu Lan left. Mu Lan heard the doctor say the fetus is unstable. It’s like she’ll lose the child. Moreover…” She paused for a moment before she said with a hint of glee, “The nurse said Song Ning’s health isn’t good so it’s unlikely for her to have children in the future…”

Mu Qing’s grip tightened in his book.

Liang Zhou could barely suppress the smile on her face. Words could not describe how happy she was at this moment. If Mu Chen wanted children, he would have to marry another woman; if Mu Chen loved Song Ning, then he would have to accept not having any children. She felt as though the heavens were smiling down on her at this moment when she thought about Mu Chen and Song Ning suffering the same pains as everyone.

At this moment, Mu Qing put his book down before he called someone on his phone. He only said two words before he disconnected the call. “Let’s start.”

Upon hearing these two words, Liang Zhou sighed in relief. She asked excitedly, “Are you planning to get discharged from the hospital?”

Mu Qing stretched lazily as he replied, “Yes, we’ve stayed here long enough…”

In Mu Qing’s life, his success and his failure were inextricably linked to women. When his father was still alive, his father had arranged for his marriage with the Liang family’s daughter. This was because the Old Master Yu of the Liang family had saved his father’s life in the past. He knew that marrying the daughter of the Liang family would pave the way for him to inherit the family business. The truth was he did not care which daughter of the Liang family he had to marry. At that time, he was unaware that the Liang family had originally intended to marry off the eldest daughter of their family, but the eldest daughter of the Liang family rebelled and ran away to escape the marriage. Therefore, the Liang family had no other choice but to send the second daughter of their family to be married into the Mu family; at that time, the Liang family had apologized profusely. When he found out about the matter, he had felt slightly uncomfortable. Although he did not care who he had to marry, he still felt as though he had been slighted. For this reason, he became slightly interested in the eldest daughter of the Liang family.

Although the second daughter of the Liang family was gentle and understanding, she was stubborn. After experiencing the ty of a new marriage, he grew bored and lost interest. Fortunately, his wife had a good relationship with his mother, which saved him a lot of worries. Moreover, after his son was born, his parents finally paid less attention to him, greatly increasing his freedom. In hindsight, he thought that was the happiest time in his life.

All that came to a halt when he met Liang Zhou. He felt that Liang Zhou was the bane of his existence. In the beginning, he fell in love with her when he first met her. He felt what he had with Liang Zhou was love whereas he and Liang Zhen only became a family after they had a son. Nevertheless, he had no intention of divorcing Liang Zhen. After all, a stable marriage was incredibly important to him; it helped cement his status and position in the Mu family. Unfortunately, Liang Zhou had no intention of playing second fiddle.

He had also misjudged Liang Zhen. He had assumed Liang Zhen would be unwilling to part everything she possessed at that time. Liang Zhen placed huge importance on love. The humiliation of being a substitute was deeply engraved in her heart, and she severed all ties with her family. However, his mother’s love and kindness managed to warm her heart, allowing her to restart her career after marriage. The peaceful years were broken when his betrayal was made public. When Liang Zhou found out he had cheated and that person he had cheated with was her sister who was originally supposed to marry him, she broke down completely. The way Liang Zhen had punished him was too extreme; she used her death to exchange for his future. He lost all support and had no choice but to leave the Mu family. It was better for him to voluntarily leave before he was expelled from the Mu family after all. Since he chose to leave with Liang Zhou before he was expelled, everyone, including the silly woman standing in front of him now, thought he had forsaken wealth for love. No one knew the truth except for his mother.

Liang Zhou, the silly woman, thought he had sacrificed his future for her. She had always felt that she had won his love and triumphed over her sister.

He did not disabuse her of that notion; he let her think as she wished. If this made her happy, then so be it. After all, it was beneficial to him.. Let people think he had left the Mu family, ostensibly for the sake of this woman, and that his ambition was overshadowed by love.
