Chapter 238 Cuckoo in the Nest, Imposter



Mu Cangnan tiptoed and lifted the blanket, looking at the little dumpling sleeping inside.

The little dumpling is so cute, with big eyes, long eyelashes, and snow-white skin without any underlying color.

He said softly, "You know what? My wife is back, and I'm so happy today!"

Mibao slowly opened his big eyes, yawned, and said, "Uncle, you're back. When did you get back?"

Mu Cangnan said, "Did I wake you up? Are you still sleepy? If you're not sleepy, get up. I'm afraid if you sleep too much now, you won't be able to sleep tonight."

Honey Baby climbed out of bed and sat in Mu Cangnan's lap. It said, "I'm not sleepy anymore. I slept for a long, long time. I'm full."

Mu Cangnan said, "You still know you've been sleeping for a very long time? My little wife is back. She really just went south to discuss business. There were no accidents."

She'll be coming to the military region tomorrow, and then the two of us will take you around together.

Mibao clapped her hands and said, "Okay! Uncle, I'm hungry, is there anything delicious?"

Mu Cangnan said, "I'll take you to the cafeteria for lunch, I'm hungry too."

He picked up the little dumpling and took him to the cafeteria for lunch.

It was well past lunchtime, but when the head chef saw Mu Cangnan arrive, he specially prepared a special meal for him.

The head chef made a bowl of luncheon meat fried rice, and the aroma of luncheon meat filled the entire cafeteria.

Honey sniffed and said, "It smells so good! What is this? Why does it smell so good?"

Mu Cangnan said, "This is luncheon meat fried rice. You should try it, it's so delicious. With some pickled vegetable shreds, it's absolutely amazing!"

Even within the military region, their conditions were the same as those of the local people; they could only eat meat during festivals like Chinese New Year.

There has always been a motto in the military: hard work and frugality.

He served Mi Bao a large bowl of luncheon meat fried rice and placed it in front of her.

Mibao took a small spoon and ate the rice in the bowl. It was so delicious that it ate a whole bowl in no time without being polite.

Mu Cangnan served Mi Bao another bowl of rice. Looking at the child who could eat so much, his smile deepened. This child is so cute. He wished that his and Yue'er's child would be just as cute in the future!

Thinking of Yue'er, Mu Cangnan stopped eating. Why did he still feel empty inside even though Yue'er was back, as if he had left behind something very, very important...

He thought about it for a long time, but couldn't understand why his heart was aching so much.

After finishing his meal, Mu Cangnan suddenly realized something.

He asked the little boy, "Little friend, do you miss your mom and dad? I'm sorry, we haven't found them for you yet."

However, the child doesn't seem to miss his parents much. If other children were separated from their parents for this long, they would probably cry every single day.

Mi Bao's lips twitched slightly. What was he thinking about his parents?

Its gaze shifted, and it said, "They don't want me, and I don't want them either! Uncle, will you stay with me from now on?"

Mu Cangnan said, "I have no objection, but your parents will definitely come looking for you."

He reached out and touched the little boy's head. Who would abandon such a cute child?

They must have gotten lost by accident; this child was definitely not abandoned at home!

Honey said, "If they wanted to find me, they would have done so long ago. Why haven't they found me yet? Humph, I won't forgive them!"

Mu Cangnan said, "Your parents must be looking for you every day. They'll be heartbroken if they can't find you. I'll call the police station in a bit and ask about the situation."

He thought to himself that after so much time, his family would surely report the child missing to the police, and he should be able to find Xiao Baozi's parents soon.

After he finished eating with Xiao Baozi, he took Xiao Baozi to his office and picked up the phone to call several police stations.

However, all the police stations told him the same thing: no one had reported a child missing in recent days.

The police officers at the station said to Mu Cangnan, "Comrade Mu, this child is most likely unwanted by his family. Otherwise, why wouldn't they report the child missing to the police?"

Mu Cangnan glanced at the little dumpling sitting in his arms. Such a cute little dumpling, would his parents really abandon him?

He said, "If no one comes looking for the child, then I'll adopt him."

The police officer at the local police station said, "If that's acceptable, then you can keep him."

After hanging up the phone, Mu Cangnan reached out and patted the little boy's head. He really wanted to raise the child, but it was forbidden to raise children in the military region.

It seems we can only wait until Li Xiyue arrives tomorrow and let her take the child away.

The key issue is that he didn't tell Li Xiyue about adopting a child. Will Li Xiyue agree?

"Uncle, what are you thinking about?" Mi Bao tilted her little head and asked.

Mu Cangnan said, "I'm thinking about my little wife. How about I have her pick you up and take you home tomorrow? You'll have a home now."

Mibao said, "Yay! I'm a little girl with a home now."

After arranging things for the child, Mu Cangnan sent the child back to the dormitory room.

Mibao sat alone in the room, watching Mu Cangnan walk away. Then it ran into the spatial passage and went to Du Jingshan's basement.

When Du Jingshan saw Mi Bao run back, he asked, "How did it go?"

Mi Bao said, "It's not good! That woman is definitely fake, but why does her face look exactly like Yue'er's? It's so strange!"

And now, no one can tell she's an imposter, including Mu Cangnan and Chen Xiaohui; they all believe he is the real Li Xiyue.

Du Jingshan said, "This swindler definitely has her own agenda! I'm certain she's here to harm Mu Cangnan!"

But to expose her as a liar now, the only options are to gather evidence against her or wait until Li Xiyue wakes up and she personally takes action to deal with the fraud!

"When will my Yue'er wake up? I'm so worried! That woman is going to marry Mu Cangnan!" Mi Bao said.

Du Jingshan said, "They're getting married? No way!"

Honey said, "Regardless of whether they can or not, we can't let them get married."

He waved his little fist at Du Jingshan. What would happen to Yue'er if Mu Cangnan married that imposter? What would happen to him?

Du Jingshan extended a finger and pried open Mi Bao's little fist. He said, "What's the use of you telling me? The important thing is whether Mu Cangnan will marry that imposter!"

Didn't he notice anything wrong with the imposter at all?

Mi Bao shook her head. "He didn't notice. It must be because that imposter looks too much like Li Xiyue that they didn't notice!"

Tomorrow's a day off, and she's coming to the military area. Just wait until I see her, and I'll teach her a lesson!

Du Jingshan's eyes flashed suddenly, and he said in surprise, "That's right, others can't do it, but you can! Good luck, I believe in you!"
