Mu Chen rose to his feet. “Alright, I don’t care anymore. You can do whatever you want. Just don’t tire Grandma out.”

Ye Xin looked at Mu Chen’s back as he went upstairs. Then, she said with an aggrieved expression, “Grandma, why is it that everything I do displeases Mu Chen? He’s always finding fault in everything I do.”

After saying that, Ye Xin held Jiang Jin’s arm and looked to the left and the right before she asked in a low voice, “Grandma, can Mu Chen… can Mu Chen’s illness be cured?”

Jiang Jin was slightly taken aback. Then, she asked solemnly, “What illness does Mu Chen have?”

Ye Xin acted coquettishly as she said, “Grandma, Mu Chen has already told me about it. You don’t have to pretend you don’t know anything.”

Jiang Jin was confused, but she did not show it on her face. Instead, she said, “You’re a doctor. Shouldn’t you know better than I do?”

Ye Xin pouted. “What can I do with my skills? Why… Why don’t we look for a renowned expert to have a look at him? Grandma, you don’t want the baby to be alone, right? I want to give him a younger brother or a younger sister, but with Mu Chen’s condition…”

With this, realization dawned on Jiang Jin immediately. She was inwardly shocked. In order to avoid Ye Xin, her grandson really did not hold back in slandering himself. Then, she said without batting an eyelid, “It’s good that you have this thought. As for Mu Chen, I’ll speak to him…”

Ye Xin was delighted upon hearing these words. “Grandma, if you speak to him, he’ll definitely listen to you. With that, perhaps, we’ll have another baby in the family.”

Jiang Jin only smiled as she looked at Ye Xin. She could not help but wonder why Mu Qing was so confident about letting Ye Xin impersonate Song Ning. Was he not worried that Ye Xin would be exposed?

When Jiang Jin returned to her room after sending Ye Xin away, she saw Mu Chen dressed in his home clothes, carrying the baby and playing with him.

The baby was familiar with Mu Chen now and had a natural liking for his father. He babbled happily as one of his hands grabbed his father’s collar and the other touched his father’s face.

Mu Chen held the baby with one hand and used his other hand to hold the baby’s hand against his face. When he smiled, the baby giggled loudly. With that, his smile grew wider. He lowered his head and kissed the baby’s forehead before he rubbed his forehead against the baby’s forehead, causing the baby to giggle even louder than before.

Jiang Jin could not help but feel moved when she saw this scene. She quietly watched the interaction between the pair of father and son.

Jiang Jin knew Mu Chen lacked paternal love the most. For this reason, she knew he loved the baby even more. Although he had hoped for a daughter previously, when he finally met the baby, she knew he no longer cared if the baby was a son or a daughter. Moreover, with Song Ning missing, he doted on his son even more. It was as though the pair of father and son were relying on each other for emotional support.

When Mu Chen sensed someone coming into the room, he turned around as he carried the baby in his arms. He smiled as soon as he saw Jiang Jin. “Grandma, the baby recognizes me.”

Jiang Jin returned the smile and stepped forward. She reached out to hold the baby’s small hand as she said, “He’s very smart so how could he not recognize his father?”

“But… I rarely come to see him….” Mu Chen said in a voice that was laden with guilt.

Jiang Jin did not say anything.

Since before, Mu Qing and Mu Chen were incompatible despite being father and son. It was rather perplexing. Perhaps, it was also because of this that Mu Chen did not know how to bond with his son.

Jiang Jin looked at the baby with an affectionate smile on her face as she said to Mu Chen, “From now on, when you come home, no matter how late it is or how busy you are, make time to see the baby. If he’s awake, play with him for a while. If he’s asleep, just look at him.. This is how you bond and nurture a relationship.”
