Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

Chapter 101: I Really Am Innocent!

When Su Zipei received the call, it was not even four o'clock in the morning yet.

She was surprised that the call was from the hospital. When the doctor mentioned Su Ziqing, her

sister's name, she had a very bad feeling about it.

She only had one thing on her mind. It's bad news.

Mu Qiqi was in her new home. She was restless in her sleep.

Sheng Xiao was awakened by her swaying arms. When he saw her sweating, he leaned over and

hugged her.

"You cannot even be still in your dreams."

Su Zipei called Mu Qiqi when rushing to the hospital. Sheng Xiao saw her phone vibrating, so he

picked up the call.

"Aunt?"

"Young Master Sheng, bring Qiqi to the hospital now. Her mother... would not live long."

"Which hospital?"

"Kang Sheng Hospital."

Sheng Xiao hung up the phone and looked at Mu Qiqi who was sleeping. He suddenly understood why

she was having nightmares. She must have had a feeling that her mother was in trouble. They are

mother and daughter after all.

Quickly, he got dressed and carried Mu Qiqi into the car. He did not wake her up yet because he

wanted her to get some more sleep.

...

At the same time, Mu Tangxue regained her consciousness in the emergency department in Kang

Sheng Hospital. The first thing she did was to ask the medical staff about her mother.

"How's my mom? Did you save my mom? I..."

"Miss, you should remain calm," said the nurse. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

"How can I be calm? The fire was so fierce. I could not find my mother."

"The doctors are trying their best to save your mother," replied the nurse. Then she said, "You have

taken in quite an amount of carbon monoxide. You should rest now."

When Mu Tangxue was trying to get up, Su Zipei stormed into the emergency department, heading

towards Mu Tangxue.

"MU TANGXUE!" she yelled.

"Aunt." Mu Tangxue suddenly choked. She felt awful.

"Don't tell me you do not know how the house caught fire!"

"Aunt, I really don't know. I really am..." Then, she coughed.

"Madam, the patient needs to remain calm now. You should talk about things later after everything is

clear," said the nurse.

Su Zipei glared at Mu Tangxue. She clenched her teeth when looking at her face.

"If this thing has got to do with you, I will not let you go this time."

"Aunt, I really am innocent!" explained Mu Tangxue. Even if she was the one who made it happen, she

had never planned to make it so severe!

The two were arguing in the emergency department when Mu Qiqi woke up in Sheng Xiao's car. She

was puzzled when she found out where she was.

"Xiaoxiao..."

"Get dressed. Your clothes are behind. There was a fire. Mama Mu's condition is not good."

Mu Qiqi's eyes opened wide when she heard what Sheng Xiao told her.

She grabbed the clothes and put them on quickly.

"You go and look for your aunt first, I will take care of the rest," said Sheng Xiao. When Mu Qiqi was

about to get out, he pulled her hand and said, "No matter what happens, I am here for you, okay?"

"I know," replied Mu Qiqi. She got out of the car and ran into the emergency department. Then, she

saw Su Zipei.

"Qiqi."

"Aunt, how is the situation now?"

Su Zipei held Mu Qiqi's arms and shook her head.

"Things are really bad now. I told her not to stay in the Mu family's house but she would not listen. Now

look what has happened."

Mu Qiqi was having mixed feelings. She did not know what to say. Although her mother mistreated her

as if she was not her own daughter, she was still her mother, her family.

"That man's phone cannot be reached. I asked Mu Group. They told me he has gone on a business trip

overseas."

"How about Mu Tangxue?

"She's here," Su Zipei replied bitterly.

Su Zipei and Mu Qiqi stood at the entrance of the operating room. They waited for more than two

hours. Soon, the police officers came.

Su ZIpei immediately grabbed hold of one of the man and asked, "How did it get on fire?"

"The preliminary investigation concluded that the fire was caused by the cooking equipment left

unattended. The grease overheated and ignited. The fire started on the first floor so it spread quickly to

the living room and the master bedroom."

"But even if it was so, they should not be injured so severely. They have their mobiles and they could

just get out of the house! Also, if Mu Tangxue could be saved, then..."

"Madam, please stay cool. Miss Mu could be saved because she was on the top floor so she was far

away from the fire. But because she fainted right after she was saved, the firefighters were not

informed about the situation in the villa. So, they did not know there was another person still inside.

Moreover, the fire spread to the living room, so it was impossible to get out through the front door. More

importantly, there was an explosion."

"Anyway, it is just our deduction for now. We will look into it more deeply afterwards."

Su Zipei signed the papers as a representative of the Mu family. But she refused to believe that the fire

was unrelated to Mu Tangxue.

How could there be such a coincidence?

Mu Qiqi was sitting outside the operating room. She texted Sheng Xiao.

"Have you left, Xiaoxiao?"

"I am not far away from you."

Mu Qiqi looked down the corridor and saw him sitting on a chair not far away. He looked at her with a

serious face.

Mu Qiqi felt better when she saw him.

Finally, the doctors walked out of the operating room.

Su Zipei walked to the doctors and grabbed one of them.

"How is my sister?"

"We did our best. But I regret having to say this. You can go and see the patient one last time," said the

doctor apologetically.

Su Zipei was stunned. Then, she rushed into the operating room. Mu Qiqi followed her behind.

When Su Zipei saw her sister lying on the operating table with her body all burnt, she covered her

mouth and cried.

Mu Qiqi could not believe that she was her mother.

"Zi... Zipei," said Mama Mu. It was very taxing for her to speak.

"I am here... I am here." Su Zipei quickly moved closer to her.

She could smell her burnt smell. Her skin was all damaged, not an inch was left untouched by the fire.

"Qi... and Xue'er... are probably not... not children of the Mu family."

Mama Mu used her last ounce of energy to tell Su Zipei this.

"I... I don't know myself... who... whose baby I... carried."

Su Zipei moved closer to Mama Mu as her utterances were very unclear.

"Sister, don't say anything, you should..."

"The... man w...was Shen Jianchuan." As she was saying, she opened her eyes and looked into Su

Zipei's eyes. She said, "You go.... find... out."

Seeing that Mama Mu had no more energy to speak, Su Zipei quickly pulled Qiqi to her side.

"Qiqi is here. She is here, Sister."

"Qi...qi."

Mama Mu reached her hand out to her daughter, but she would never be able to hold her daughter

again.

Mu Qiqi stood by her mother. She started tearing up.

At this very moment, she lost all of her energy. She could not even stand. When she stumbled, Sheng

Xiao supported her from the back. His hands were warm.

Mu Qiqi could not hold it in any longer. She plunged into Sheng Xiao's arms and cried.
