He wrung a small towel and wiped the perspiration from her face, then poured her a cup of water.
“Do you feel unwell? Should I call the doctor?”
He Xiyan shook her head. She still felt a little panic and flustered because that dream had seemed so real that she felt like it had truly happened.
“Ye Hao… Yuan Yuan… where is Yuan Yuan?” She grabbed his hand tightly and stared blankly at him.
Ye Hao patted her face and he was confused by her behavior.
“Didn’t Yuan Yuan return home with the nanny last afternoon? What’s wrong?” Ye Hao sat beside her and placed his arm around her shoulders. He could tell that she seemed afraid of something, or she could have dreamt of something happening to Yuan Yuan.
“Go to bed. Yuan Yuan will be fine. He had already recovered two days ago,” he could only comfort her and hoped that she could take this time to rest well since it wasn’t good for her to get so agitated during her confinement period.
He Xiyan still clutched at his hand and her breathing became a little more irregular and rapid. She didn’t know what was wrong with her either but she felt inexplicably uneasy.
“Don’t let Yuan Yuan come out to play. Tell the nanny to keep him within the castle at all times,” she said a little anxiously.
Ye Hao helped her lie down and held her hand tightly to calm her down.
“Go to sleep. I’ll call the nanny tomorrow to instruct her not to bring Yuan Yuan out during this period,” he agreed to her request since he did not want her to worry and fret. He knew that she had always taken precautions since the day Yuan Yuan was born and never sent his pictures to her friends, as though she was afraid that the Mo family would find out.
She probably had another nightmare that Yuan Yuan was taken away.
“I’m sorry… Ye Hao,” He Xiyan’s eyes were bright with tears. She knew that she had become more sensitive recently and was thankful to him putting up with her outbursts.
Ye Hao dropped a gentle kiss on her forehead and pulled her blankets up. Then, he sat quietly by her bedside until her breathing evened out. There was no need for her to apologize since she was his wife and they would be each other’s companions for the rest of their lives, so they should take care of each other no matter what.

The next day, Li Qin rose early in her excitement. She had gotten a little better under the care of her nurse and could now walk with the help of a walking cane, and she could also feed and groom herself.
She did not sleep the entire night and had been looking forward to hearing the news this afternoon when her brother Li Yunsheng would call.
She felt extremely excited at the thought that He Xiyan might have another child and prayed that the child would match the timeline that she had calculated. This would mean that she had already become a grandmother a while ago and she just didn’t know it.
Mo Yixuan also rose early. His mother’s excitement had affected him and he was also waiting to hear from his uncle.
This news was like a judgement of fate to them.
After they had breakfast, Li Qin reminded her son, “Yixuan, call your uncle again and ask if he has managed to find out anything.”
She was extremely anxious and her heart raced. She felt as though it was about to burst out of her chest.
Mo Yixuan took out his phone and quickly dialed his uncle’s number and switched the call to speaker mode.
Li Yunsheng soon picked up.
“Yixuan, I had someone look into this and was about to call your mother. Ye Hao and He Xiyan indeed have a son together and their son is named Ye Ling. His birthdate is registered as 28 August 2020, but I found out that he was registered as their adopted son and not their biological son.”
