Will Mother Zi will disclose what's in heart?

Xue Nuan had a spacious cabin for herself with attached Room to rest for her to take rest. She took Zi Peng to her cabin while Mother Zi followed them.

Zi Peng noticed his Mother and slowed down his steps to take her along.

Like Li Chao, Zi Peng also felt that her mother is up-to something.

Since all of them had missed their lunch already, Xue Nuan asked her Secretary outside her cabin to bring some food for all three of them.

Xue Nuan made her husband and Mother in law sit in the side restroom, while she came back to her cabin for examining the test reports of Li Chao.

The nurse she had appointed to assist her in Li Chao's case started to display the scan and other reports on the illuminated wall for Xue Nuan to examine.

Zi Peng knew his wife is going to take some time knowing her work habits so far. His phone rang in his pocket, it was his assistant Gong Bai. He picked the phone and just said

"Speak"

"Master, because of the current events, I forget to mention the event which happened in Old Zi Mansion before Second Master Zi Zexian and group left for North mountain. It's regarding Madam Zi."

Immediately after hearing that Zi Peng looked at his mother who was seated comfortably but lost in some thoughts to herself.

Zi Peng asked Gong Bai to continue

"Master, on the morning of their departure, something happened between Madam Zi and Miss Li Quan in the Kitchen. Few of our maids spotted Madam Zi with tears. Miss Liu Huang noticed it and sent Second Master Zexian to pacify. he did the same. Madam Zi was not in her sprits since then, even Your father tried to cheer her up with flowers. Her mood only changed after hearing Master Li Chao's has opened his eyes.

That's not it Boss, Madam Zi wanted to do DNA test between her and Miss Li Quan. I happened to find out."

Zi Peng listened to it completely and said

"check your text"

Zi Peng disconnected the call and started to wonder about it. He came back to reality and send the text

{Investigate every little detail about Li Quan. Be discreet and erase your traces of search.}

The last time he wanted to enquire about the accident of Uncle Li Chao, his father stopped him. Till now, that had been bothering him internally. That's why he had to request Mo Jian to take up the task of investigation.

There is a lot of variable right now, thought Zi Peng.

Before he could speak, The hospital staff brought food for them and laid it on the table.

Zi Peng went into deep thought, He just called his wife over the phone to come and join for the late lunch.

Madam Zi noticed the deep lines forming in her son's forehead due to frowning.

"Xiao Peng, I thought you will be jumping with Joy after the trip with Xue Nuan. But why am I seeing the worry on your face. What's bothering you dear?"

Zi Peng was not surprised but his mother's question, but he was thinking where to start the conversation. He wanted to be careful because his iron strong mother is kinda looking vulnerable.

"Mother, it's nothing don't worry about it. it's just lot of things are happening around recently. I have been preoccupied with it."

Zi Peng expression came back to normal and frown seems to be disappeared in the air.

Xue Nuan joined them and said

"Sorry for the delay, I got carried away in work. let's have some food and discuss while eating."

Xue Nuan started to unpack the food and started serving into Madam Zi and her husband's bowl.

She served some Veg stir fry, Sticky Chicken with Some Chicken Fried rice.

She started eating as well since hunger was pulling stomach inside. She gazed at her Mother in law who was quietly eating.

" Mother, is everything okay with you. I assumed that you were worried your brother, but now I feel like something else is bothering you."

Xue Nuan was direct with Madam Zi. she doesn't believes in beating around the bush and hence complicating the conversation with the family.

Zi Peng smirked on the side by the unexpected bluntness of his wife. He wanted initially talk about Li Quan, but decided to see his Mother's response to his wife.

"Xiao Nuan, What makes you think this way dear. the truth is I m delighted to see and spend some time with my brother. Actually you should ask this question to your dear husband, he was seriously thinking about something while ago."

Zi Peng smiled at his Mother's comment, who is he kidding, both the Nuan's are extremely hard to crack. How will Mother Zi will disclose what's in heart that easily?.Yet Zi Peng decided to test the waters and try his luck

"Mother, as you know Li Quan was staying with us for a while now. Now she might be going to abroad for her studies. Do you think it was not wise decision to keep Li Quan close to us and staying in Orange county Villa. Will Father have problem with me if he comes to know about it?"

Xue Nuan looked at her husband after hearing a strange question from her husband. Since this is not a time to ponder for answers, she just kept quiet and looking towards to Mother-in-law response.

"What kind of silly thought was that Peng! Your father will never think that way about Li Quan."

Zi Peng asked " Are you sure Mother, since she is one of the Li's a well."

"Yes, yes my son. your father is aware that she is one of the Li. Infact Zexian brought her couple of times for dinner. Though we never had close conversations, your father seems to have no issues."

"Mother, if father is not having problem about Li Quan, then why is he worked up and tensed about Uncle Li."

"What are you saying Xiao Peng, your father is worked up? He was fine when I left for hospital." Mother Zi asked with puzzled look

"Where is your phone Mother, why don't you check it."

Mother Zi then realized that her phone died due to zero battery. She was constantly thinking about Li Quan all weekend, she forgot to function normal, she even forgot to charge her phone.

Madam Zi quickly plugged the phone to the charger on the side table. The phone started to come to life. She noticed numerous missed calls from her husband. Mother Zi thought that the kiddish behavior of her husband needs to be stopped. She didn't like when such things goes till her kids too. Mother Zi is very prideful person, she takes such things very seriously. she frowned and texted her husband

{ Jun, what happened. why so many calls from you, anything urgent}

She got an instant reply

{ I don't like you visiting Li Chao. Come back immediately.}

{ Jun, this is not right, I m extremely unhappy about your behavior. I can't act in impulse. I am not able to forget Li Quan. I want to talk to Li Chao about her. Moreover he is my brother. Stop being jealous over him unnecessarily. I will be back soon. Bye}

Father Zi knows his wife to well, He didn't want to make his wife really angry. Eventually his temper reduced and responded

{Okay, please come soon.}

Mother Zi signed heavily without realized the two pairs of eyes looking at her.

" Mother, do you have any idea where is Grandfather Zi and Grandfather Li. I wanted to reach out to both of them, of course for different matters. but I couldn't get hold of them.

Mother Zi was astonished by the question. if only she knew the answers. Mother Zi suspected
