Zhu Jidong and Xun Weilan left the living room and Mo Roulan also came down from the stairs a few moments later.
She sighed in relief when she saw that the living room was completely empty.
However, the next moment she was startled when suddenly a furry cat jumped in front of her out of nowhere.
Mo Roulan sighed in relief again thinking that it was good that Zhu Jidong didn't stay here for too long because if he did then he would have been able to know that there was no cat but she on the stairs.
Ignoring the cat, Mo Roulan decided to check the house cautiously.
She needed to find where they have kept Mo Chen.
One thing that Mo Roulan didn't understand that what Zhu Jidong and Xun Weilan were doing inside a house. If they were so clever then wouldn't they have gone to the hospital directly?
However, again which doctor would allow a kind of heart transplant Zhu Jidong and Xun Weilan wanted to have for their son.
Pondering on all these questions, Mo Roulan finally reached a corridor that had too many rooms.
Just how filthy rich Zhu family was!
Inside her heart, Mo Roulan could not help but wonder as she looked around the beautiful and the huge house.
She slowed down amidst her already slow staggering steps.
From the first room in the corridor, she seemed to have heard some voices.
Mo Roulan understood that someone was inside. She leaned against the wall attached to that room and slowly stepped towards the door.
From the small gap, she saw that there were three people inside the room. Xun Weilan and Zhu Jidong who was sitting on the bed.
And the third person was none other than their son…Zhu Jiangru.
Since the door was opened a little she could hear clearly what they were talking about.
"Ruru…what happened?
Zhu Jidong asked his son Zhu Jiangru who was looking at him with his big black eyes. His face was paler than before.
Both husband and wife knew that their son's condition was going bad with every passing day.
That was the only reason they had decided to abduct Mo Chen so early. Otherwise, they have thought of implementing their plan after six months.
However, when Doctor Zhang told them that after six months, Zhu Jiangru might not even have the time or any chance to transplant his heart, they decided to implement their plan early.
Xun Weilan couldn't help but hug her son tightly remembering Doctor Zhang's words.
Zhu Jiangru however didn't respond to the hug like always.
Inside his mother's embrace, he was staring at his father with his innocent eyes as he asked
"Dad, from where did you get a new heart for me?"
Zhu Jidong smiled as his hand rose to shuffle Zhu Jiangru's hair and he lied very easily.
"It is from a dead person. The person died two days ago and Doctor Zhang informed us that our Ruru can have a new heart now."
It was a little insensible to tell an eleven-year-old child that he was soon going to have his heart replaced with a person's heart who was already dead.
Xun Weilan and Zhu Jidong knew that.
However, they also knew just how stubborn and intelligent their son was. If they didn't give him some logical explanation, he would never agree to have this heart transplant.
They could force another child but they could not force their own child to do something that he didn't want to do.
So these lies were better than that scary truth.
Zhu Jiangru however didn't look as if he had accepted his father's lies.
The young child pushed away his mother's arms and looked at his father with a firm gaze and asked
"Then what is Mo Chen doing inside this house?"
Xun Weilan's eyes widened and Zhu Jidong's face went emotionless after he heard his son's words.
"How did you know?"
He asked his son strictly.
Zhu Jiangru was however not afraid at all as he told his father
"I had gone to during water inside the kitchen last night. I saw you, mother, and Doctor Zhang bringing him inside the house through the terrace."
"What is going on, Dad?"
As if knowing that his father might not tell him anything, he looked towards his mother and asked her
"Mom, tell me what is going on?"
Xun Weilan's eyes were filled with tears and she couldn't even gather the courage to look into her son's eyes.
She couldn't lie to him but she could also not tell him the truth.
She could not tell him just how cruel his parents were.
Zhu Jidong however was more strong-hearted than his wife and so he told his son the truth.
"It is he who will give you his heart."
"Jidong"
Xun Weilan looked at her husband incredulously. How could he tell Ruru about this matter!
Sure enough, Zhu Jiangru had an expression of disbelief on his face as stared at his father with a parted mouth and then said
"Mo Chen…how …why would he give it to me?"
A moment later, his face went blank but his eyes were filled with fear as he whispered
"Dad, did you force him?"
"No"
Zhu Jidong's response came almost immediately and Xun Weilan sighed in relief seeing that he didn't tell the truth this time.
"We are giving his family money. Mo family is not as rich as our family so Mo Chen is not able to enjoy all the facilities that you have enjoyed in your life."
Zhu Jiangru knew that his father was saying the truth. He remembered very well how Mo Chen's eyes were shining brightly when he had shown him his toys.
He knew that Mo Chen's mother couldn't afford those toys. He had even offered them to him. However, the sensible that boy was …he refused to accept them.
Zhu Jiangru was almost of the same age as Mo Chen but he had thus unknown affection for the young boy inside his heart.
Perhaps it was because of his innocence.
Mo Chen was a very cute and innocent boy. He had always wanted to have a young brother like Mo Chen. However, Zhu Jiangru has heard from his father that his mother had difficulty in giving him birth so he never expressed the desire from his heart.
However, when had he thought that he would get the same boy's heart inside his chest one day!
At least Zhu Jiangru had not thought so.
