Chapter 749 - 792: Give Me the Child
"Let’s go, upstairs!" Mu Beiting coldly tossed the words over his shoulder, taking Ye Anxin’s hand, leading her cautiously upstairs.To avoid waking the residents and to not alarm Mo Xuehong, everyone moved especially quietly and slowly!
Upon reaching the apartment where Mo Xuehong lived, Mu Beiting pulled Ye Anxin back a step and let the man carrying the toolbox step forward.
The man with the toolbox crouched by the door, took out a small flashlight from the toolbox, held it in his mouth, and then skillfully started unlocking the door with the necessary tools from the toolbox!
The man’s movements were so adept and light that if Mu Beiting and Ye Anxin weren’t watching from the side, they might have thought he was just squatting there, doing nothing!
Sound asleep in the room, Mo Xuehong didn’t notice the commotion at the door. Holding little Chu Yi, she continued to sleep sweetly!
After much effort, the man outside finally succeeded in opening the door!
"You two stay outside. Pete, come in with me!" Mu Beiting issued the order quietly, then led Ye Anxin and Pete inside!
To avoid alerting Mo Xuehong, Pete only took out his phone and switched on the flashlight feature, not turning on the living room lights!
Although the phone’s light wasn’t as bright as the living room lights, it was enough for everyone to see everything in the house clearly!
Upon entering, Ye Anxin immediately searched the whole room for signs of little Chu Yi! However, she didn’t see Chu Yi; instead, she saw an unexpected scene!
In the center of the living room was a heater, covered with freshly cleaned clothes. There were diapers on the couch, milk powder on the coffee table, freshly washed baby bottles, and dirty diapers in the trash bin beside the coffee table!
Seeing this, Ye Anxin’s tightly wound heartstrings seemed to relax considerably!
It seemed that Pete’s previous reports were correct; Mo Xuehong indeed treated her daughter well! If she truly intended to abuse her daughter, there would be no need for the milk powder and diapers!
Ye Anxin pondered this as she continued to walk further into the room with Mu Beiting!
The bedroom door was ajar, and with a gentle push, it opened!
As the door swung open, Ye Anxin got a clear view of the room’s situation! Seeing Mo Xuehong holding little Chu Yi closely, the grandchild and grandmother sleeping sweetly together, Ye Anxin’s emotions suddenly became complex, uncertain whether to feel happy or angry!
After all, no one treats an enemy’s child with such careful care! The hands holding little Chu Yi tightly gave her a momentary illusion that Chu Yi was Mo Xuehong’s cherished treasure, afraid of being snatched away at any moment!
The scene before her softened Ye Anxin’s heart, and she looked up at the man protectively holding her, "Uncle..."
Mu Beiting’s expression remained unchanged; he made a gesture for Ye Anxin to keep silent, then released his long arm from around her, quietly moving to the bedside where little Chu Yi was sleeping, bending over to remove Mo Xuehong’s arm from Chu Yi!
Unfortunately, as soon as Mu Beiting’s hand touched Mo Xuehong’s arm, her tightly shut eyes suddenly opened; she looked at Mu Beiting warily, demanding in a stern voice, "Who is it?"
Taking advantage of her momentary shock, Mu Beiting swiftly snatched little Chu Yi from her arms!
Caught off guard, Mo Xuehong couldn’t stop him, watching helplessly as Mu Beiting took little Chu Yi from her embrace!
With her arms suddenly empty, Mo Xuehong’s sleepiness vanished; she immediately sat up on the bed, not caring to see clearly who took little Chu Yi, her eyes fixed unwaveringly on the child in Mu Beiting’s arms, afraid he might harm Chu Yi!
Mo Xuehong, staring intently at little Chu Yi in Mu Beiting’s arms, nervously and anxiously pleaded, "Give the child back to me, give me my child, I’ll give you anything you want! Take whatever you want from my home!"
Hearing Mo Xuehong’s words, Ye Anxin’s feelings became even more complicated.
Mu Beiting ignored Mo Xuehong, reaching for the blanket at the foot of the bed, tightly wrapping little Chu Yi, whom he had just taken from the warm covers.
The stir around roused Chu Yi from sleep; he opened his drowsy eyes, taking a glance at the person holding him! Perhaps realizing it was Mu Beiting, he smiled sweetly at him, then closed his eyes to continue sleeping!
Mo Xuehong remained oblivious to this subtle change, stubbornly believing that a group of bad people had suddenly come to her home to steal her child!
Without sparing Mo Xuehong a glance, Mu Beiting prepared to leave with the child in his arms.
Seeing him about to leave with the child, Mo Xuehong panicked, got off the bed without bothering to put on her shoes, and desperately lunged at Mu Beiting, shouting, "Give me the child, give me back the child, that’s my child!"
As Mo Xuehong pounced, Mu Beiting easily dodged, stepping aside to avoid her attack.
At that moment, Pete found the light switch by the entrance and turned on the lights.
With a ’click’ sound, the previously dark room was instantly illuminated.
With the lights on, Mo Xuehong clearly saw that it wasn’t just one person but three who had come to her house! And they were none other than Mu Beiting, Ye Anxin, and Mu Beiting’s assistant, Pete!
Seeing them suddenly appear, Mo Xuehong stood there, dumbfounded, and asked in a daze, "How did you find this place?"
Pete sternly replied, "You don’t need to worry about how we found it! You’ve held the child for a day; it’s time to return her to our president and his wife!"
Hearing Pete’s words, Mo Xuehong instantly bristled, her emotions surging, "No way, the child is mine, why should I give her to you? Give me back the child!"
Mu Beiting cast a cold glance at her, not bothering to argue, intending to leave with the child directly.
However, Mo Xuehong wasn’t about to let her leave so easily; to her, this child was a gift from her precious daughter after leaving her, to prevent loneliness! It’s her possession, and she wouldn’t allow anyone to take it away from her.
"Mu Beiting, don’t go! If you don’t leave the child, you have no hope of leaving here! Give me the child, give her to me now!" Mo Xuehong, intent on preventing Mu Beiting’s departure, clawed towards him with outstretched hands.
Mu Beiting stepped aside to dodge, while Pete intercepted her, sternly warning, "We haven’t arrested you; sparing you from criminal charges is already lenient enough! Don’t challenge our president’s patience!"
