Chapter 204: Chapter 204: His Mouth is Really Venomous!

"You finally deigned to come back? I thought you weren’t going to return tonight."

What did he say?

Upon hearing the mocking and sarcastic voice on the phone, Ye Ning hurriedly explained, "No, I had something to do today. I’m Xiaobao’s mother, how could I possibly not come back?"

Xiaobao’s mother?

Does she even remember that she’s this child’s mother?

It wouldn’t have been an issue if he hadn’t brought it up, but as soon as he did, the already ill-tempered man’s face turned even darker, "Is that so? I thought the kid was an orphan."

"What did you say?" Ye Ning frowned deeply, "You’re calling him an orphan?"

The man at the other end did not soften his words one bit, "Isn’t that the case? Alone in the hospital with no one to look after him, has anyone even remembered to check if he’s hungry? Does he need to eat? Even for drinking water, he has to boil it himself. Tell me, how is he any different from an orphan?"

"You..."

Ye Ning finally got a little angry. How could this person be so vicious in his speech?

But after calming down, she realized she couldn’t rebut his accusations.

Indeed, Xiaobao, left alone at the hospital today, was just like an orphan with no one to look after him, no one to remember whether he needed to eat. No one considered how such a small child would fare alone in that hospital room.

The image of the small figure who would gaze out the window every day, eagerly looking down, suddenly brought a sharp pain to Ye Ning’s heart, and her eyes reddened.

"Alright, Ou Mucen, I admit I was wrong. Now tell me, where exactly are you now?" Her voice had noticeably lowered by the end of the sentence.

Ou Mucen sat there, his eyes not straying from the screen before him, but as he heard the plea on the phone, his fingers stopped tapping the keyboard for a moment.

Just then, Little Baozi, who had been playfully wiggling his little bottom, also noticed the commotion and lifted his round head, "Uncle, is it Mommy calling?"

Ou Mucen looked up, paused for a moment, then nodded, "Mhm!"

"Wow, really? Then I’ll tell Mommy where we are so she can come to pick me up right away." After speaking, he scrambled up with his little arms and legs, and ran joyfully towards the phone.

So, as Ye Ning waited in the taxi for a while, she finally heard her son’s voice, "Mommy, we’re at Platinum Apartments, where Uncle lives. Hurry and come get me!"

Platinum Apartments?

Where was that?

Upon hearing this, Ye Ning quickly turned to the taxi driver, "Sir, do you know where Platinum Apartments is?"

The driver looked back, "Of course, Platinum Apartments are the most upscale apartments in A City."

Good, knowing this meant she could find them.

After getting the details of the exact address from her son on the phone, Ye Ning finally hung up, and handed the phone back to the taxi driver.

Platinum Apartments?

Why had that man taken Xiaobao to his apartment? Wasn’t he only supposed to take him out for a meal? After eating, couldn’t he have brought him back to the hospital? Why did he take him to his apartment? Wasn’t he supposed to be busy? Didn’t he have to go to the company today?

Could it be because he had said earlier that he felt uneasy about Xiaobao being alone and uncared for in the hospital, that he had decided to keep him by his side?

As the thought settled, Ye Ning, who was hastily making her way to the apartment, felt a sudden leap in her heart, and a touch of gratitude
