He Xiyan shot Mo Ye a reassuring smile when she saw that he seemed frightened.

The nanny picked Mo Ye up and carried him to another room.

Wu Xiaomin and Lin Yanyan approached He Xiyan. They had been recruited by He Xiyan so they had always been more respectful toward her and they genuinely liked her.

“Sister He... will you be having lunch here?” Wu Xiaomin asked.

She hoped that Sister He would return to the Mo family one day, then life at the Mo mansion wouldn’t be so tough. Li Qin had such a foul temper that it was very difficult waiting on her.

He Xiyan shook her head and the corners of her lips curved into a wry smile. Given the choice, she wouldn’t want to step in the Mo mansion for the rest of her life. She was only here because of Yuan Yuan.

Her connection with the Mo family had been severed a long time ago.

“I won’t be eating,” she said softly. “I’ll be bringing Yuan Yuan to the children’s amusement park later and I’ll only send him back to the Mo mansion. Please pass this message on to Li Qin and Mo Yixuan,” she said as she rose to her feet.

She would be starting her new employment next week and once she started working, she wouldn’t have much time to visit Yuan Yuan, so she wanted to spend as much time with him as she could over the weekend.

“Yuan Yuan... come here. Let me carry you!” He Xiyan waved at Yuan Yuan and Yuan Yuan rushed into his mother’s arms and wrapped his arms around her neck tightly as he kissed her cheek.

He Xiyan carried Yuan Yuan toward the living room and turned around as she headed out of the Mo mansion.

However, luck wasn’t on her side and she heard Li Qin yell angrily behind her just as she was about to step out of the door.

“He Xiyan, where do you think you’re taking Yuan Yuan?” Li Qin said with her hands on her hips. Her face was flushed red and her gaze never left Yuan Yuan who was in her arms.

She looked at He Xiyan as though she was snatching her grandson away from her.

He Xiyan stopped and turned back to look at Li Qin with bitter hatred.

She would never forget how they took her child away and how they resorted to despicable means to snatch her child’s custody away from her.

“I’ll bring Yuan Yuan to the children’s amusement park this afternoon and he’ll spend the night with me in the castle and visit his sister as well. I’ll send him back tomorrow evening,” He Xiyan said coolly. When she looked at Li Qin, her eyes were filled with displeasure and irritation. If it wasn’t for the fact that she realized that Yuan Yuan would be brought up with more love and care at the Mo mansion and be kept away from the disdainful looks of the Ye family, she would have torn this old woman apart with her bare hands.

Li Qin scoffed coldly and bellowed, “No way!”

This was her grandson, so she would never allow He Xiyan to take her grandson out of her house. She could allow He Xiyan to visit her child and even reside at the Mo mansion but she couldn’t let He Xiyan take her grandson out.

She was afraid that He Xiyan wouldn’t return after she took him or pull another disappearing act on her. She was still traumatized by the last time He Xiyan ran away with her grandson.

He Xiyan walked closer to Li Qin and her eyes suddenly widened and they were filled with rage as she said, “What did you just say?” She glared at Li Qin and did not try to hide the resentment and anger in her eyes.

Yuan Yuan was her son, so why couldn’t she take him out?

Li Qin stuck to her resolute stance.

“I said, you can’t bring the child out. If you want to spend time with him, you could do so here at the castle. I’ll even allow you to spend the night here but I forbid you from taking him out!”

Li Qin said the final words through gritted teeth and refused to compromise.

Nothing was more important than her grandson to her.
