Seeing Song Ci defending Han Zhan so much and thinking that Han Zhan was good in every way, Mu Qiu was obviously in love. She was afraid of angering Song Ci, so she kept quiet.
Du Tingting tried to reconcile: "Alright, Qiu Tianer, don't say that again." Pulling Song Ci's arm, Du Tingting apologized to her: "Song Song, don't be angry with Qiu Tianer. Han Zhan's conditions are there, and Qiu Tianer is just standing up for you because she's worried that you'll have a hard time."
Du Tingting apologized on Mu Qiu's behalf, and Song Ci could no longer act so she reconciled with Mu Qiu.
Just then, someone walked over to the ward with food, and a rich aroma of meat drifted into the ward. Song Ci's nose moved, and it smelled like the fragrant pork ribs stew.
At this moment, Du Tingting frowned, she let go of Song Ci's arm, turned around and ran into the bathroom. Du Tingting ran very fast, leaving Song Ci and Mu Qiu looking at each other in bewilderment.
Du Tingting did not forget to close the toilet door in a hurry. After a while, Song Ci and Mu Qiu heard the sound of vomiting.
In a flash, something flashed through Song Ci's mind.
Du Tingting has been tired, sleepy, listless, and vomiting for days...
No matter how you look at it, this looks like a sign of pregnancy!
Song Ci looked towards Mu Qiu, only to see that he was also somewhat stunned. Mu Qiu was not stupid, and she might have figured out what was going on.
Song Ci's face darkened slightly, and he felt something was wrong.
Mu Qiu saw that her time was running out and she could not find a suitable heart for transplant surgery. She was doomed to die. At this time, Du Tingting was pregnant. She and Mu Mian would have a new child. For Mu Qiu, who was at the end of her rope, it was like a bolt from the blue.
What would Mu Qiu think?
Song Ci didn't dare to think too deeply.
A few minutes later, Du Tingting came out of the bathroom. She had vomited, rinsed her mouth with water, and carefully wiped the water stains with a tissue. Coming out of the bathroom, Du Tingting smiled tiredly at the two sisters, waved her hand, and said, "I've had a stomach ache these past few days, and I'm a little nauseous."
Du Tingting's deliberate explanation only made things more obvious, raising suspicions. Perhaps Du Tingting already knew she was pregnant, but she lied because she was afraid Mu Qiu would become suspicious.
Song Ci looked at Mu Qiu again, and sure enough, there was a dull look in Mu Qiu's eyes.
Mu Qiu had thought of everything Song Ci could think of. "Then you need to get more rest, take your medicine on time, and eat lighter meals." Mu Qiu forced himself to care about Du Tingting's health. "Mom, if you don't feel well these two days, don't come to the hospital. I feel tired for you."
Du Tingting was touched by Mu Qiu's words, but Song Ci was worried.
"I want to rest for a while, Mom. You and sister go back first." Mu Qiu fell asleep, covering his chest with a thin blanket, obviously ordering them to leave.
Du Tingting wanted to stay a while longer, but Song Ci said, "Mother, since Qiu'er is tired, let her rest. I'll go with you. I drove here, so I can take you back."
Du Tingting had a car accident a few years ago, which scared Mu Mian so much that he would never allow Du Tingting to hit a car again. Now Du Tingting is picked up by a driver when she travels.
Du Tingting hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement. She then gave Mu Qiu a few more instructions, all of which were to ask him to play with his phone less and get more rest. Mu Qiu grew impatient and covered his head with the quilt. "Alright, I get it. You guys go now." Her voice came out from under the quilt, sounding muffled.
Du Tingting looked at Mu Qiu worriedly for a moment, then left with Song Ci.
The mother and daughter walked side by side towards the elevator.
Both of them were hiding something in their hearts, and neither of them spoke. They were silent all the way to the first floor. Du Tingting suddenly took Song Ci's hand and said, "Song Song, we haven't been out and about for a while. There's a coffee shop near the hospital. Shall we go and have a seat?"
Song Ci also had something to say to Du Tingting, so she agreed. "Okay, it's okay anyway." After Song Ci was injured, she put her work at Zeus Aerospace aside and waited until she recovered before practicing with the aircraft.

At the coffee shop, Song Ci ordered an Americano, while Du Tingting ordered milk. Song Ci casually mentioned, "Why didn't you order a mocha, Mom? I remember you always ordered a mocha when you came to the coffee shop."
Du Tingting was afraid that Song Ci would get suspicious, so she explained calmly, "My stomach is upset, a cup of hot milk will make me feel better. Besides, the mocha in this cafe doesn't look tasty."
Song Ci did not expose Du Tingting's poor acting skills.
Du Tingting took a sip of the milk, thinking about Song Fei and not knowing how to tell Song Ci.
She didn't dare tell Song Ci what Mu Mian had done, fearing that they would break up. However, knowing that Song Fei was in danger, Du Tingting couldn't just stand by and watch. She had to remind Song Ci to protect Song Fei!
Having made up her mind, Du Tingting asked Song Ci, "Song Song, has your sister contacted you?"
Song Ci looked at Du Tingting deeply.
Du Tingting felt guilty, and her eyelashes trembled uncontrollably when Song Ci looked at her like that.
Mother suddenly asked her sister what she was going to do. Did she know what Mu Mian had done secretly?
Suddenly asking about her sister's whereabouts, was her mother trying to help Mu Mian capture her sister and dig out her heart to save Mu Qiu? Or was she simply curious about Song Fei's whereabouts and wanted to warn her to be wary of Mu Mian?
Song Ci quickly averted her gaze and began to drink from her coffee. It was difficult to drink with a neck brace on, so Song Ci took an awkward sip of coffee before saying, "We're still trying to find him. The police are so busy they don't have time to look for him. I've asked a detective for help..."
While speaking, Song Ci glanced at Du Tingting casually, and found that after hearing her answer, Du Tingting's expression became nervous.
Noticing the subtle change in Du Tingting's mood, Song Ci's heart moved slightly. It seemed that Du Tingting really knew what Mu Mian had done to Song Fei! When did she know this? Did she know it a long time ago, or did she find out only recently?
Song Ci wanted to find out whether Du Tingting was deceived or involved in the conspiracy in Song Fei's murder, so she decided to test Du Tingting's attitude.
Song Ci showed a determined expression on her face. She said, "I believe I will find Song Fei. I am the only relative she has left. Only when she returns to me will she feel at ease. Besides, hasn't my father been helping to look for her? He knows a lot of people, so I believe it won't take long for him to find my sister."
Hearing this, Du Tingting's face not only did not show a relaxed look, but became even more nervous. She suddenly spoke, her tone anxiously saying: "Maybe Song Fei has something to hide and doesn't want to meet you?"
"Song Song, you know, if someone really wants to hide from you, the ends of the earth and the bottom of the sea are all places to go. Maybe when Song Fei figures it out, she'll come back on her own."
"I don't think you need to worry too much about Song Fei. She's not a child anymore. Besides, your father has cut off your financial support, and Han Zhan still has a mortgage to pay. Hiring a private detective would be a considerable expense for you. I think we should just wait for good news from the police."
