Chapter 77: A Thorn in the Flesh

Her face turned ashen as she replied with deliberation, “I haven’t forgotten every clause in that contract. Mistress Mu, don’t worry; I won’t appear in my… in your son’s life.”
“Really? You mean it?”
“Yes!” she replied through clenched lips, her heart crashing with pain.
Mu Wanrou broke into a loathsome smile. “I hope you won’t forget what you’ve said today and won’t do anything to breach the contract. If I find out that you are trying to worm your way into our lives again, I’ll see to it that you regret it!”
She gave her a warning. Approaching her, Mu Wanrou caught sight of a hickey on her neck.
Last night, when Mu Yazhe did not return home, she sent someone to investigate. In the hotel’s security footage, she saw him enter a suite.
He left the suite in a neat suit in the morning, while a girl in a dress followed his assistant out of the room in the afternoon. The face was obscured from sight… but the shape and height perfectly matched this woman before her.
The moment she saw the dubious trace on her neck, Mu Wanrou’s mind was filled with so many possibilities. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got; the sinews on her forehead were obvious.
“B*tch!”
She raised her hand to slap her.
Behind her, a little voice coddled.
“Mommy, I’ve been waiting for you.” Little Yichen appeared out of nowhere as Mu Wanrou was about to send a slap across Yun Shishi’s face. She halted.
Panicking, Mu Wanrou turned around and gently asked, “Yichen, didn’t I have Auntie Gui bring you home?”
“Does mommy not plan to follow us back for dinner?” Little Yichen looked odd for a reason or another, as if he were trying to protect Yun Shishi, when he calmly pressed on, “Daddy said he is coming home for dinner tonight.”
Mu Wanrou heard this and did not waste any more time on Yun Shishi.
She would have a chance to prove the facts about last night.
As for Yun Shishi, she would not let her off lightly and would make her disappear from the capital soon. She would remove this thorn from her flesh once and for all!
Thus, after giving her a disdainful look, Mu Wanrou carried Little Yichen in her arms and left.
Yun Shishi was lost for a moment.
He is called Yichen, huh… She was overwhelmed with emotions.
It was painful to watch her flesh and blood call someone else mommy, but she still remembered the contract clause from six years ago.
After she gave birth to that son, she would be a stranger to him. It was cruel but necessary.
She was defenseless against the rich and powerful Mu family.
She was unfit to be that child’s mother…
She took a deep breath and collected her thoughts before rushing over to the dinner party.
Along the street, an extended Bentley parked at an intersection.
This Bentley was a limited edition. It was not difficult to tell that the owner of this car was someone very rich.
A black genuine leather sofa and Sackson carpet decorated the interior of the car.
On the side, a small wine cabinet displayed expensive wine and vodka, looking lush and bright under the lights.
Yun Tianyou sat casually on the sofa, an expensive stemware filled with bubbling coke in his hand.
