She looked at him and smiled back. She could remember the times in her childhood where he would always end up following her wherever she went. "Thank you, brother."

"Just call me 'Qinqing' like you usually do," he chuckled. The lazy look in his eyes was gone and instead, they were twinkling, looking like an innocent pup.

She held her mother's hand afterward and gave it a squeeze. "I'm sorry, I can't drop you at the airport tonight..."

Her mother was already planning on returning to the mainland on the same day. She didn't want to leave Lu Xian Yu alone while he was bedridden.

"It's fine." Li Bingbing patted her head. "I'll visit you from time to time. Next time, bring your son with you. I want to see him."

Shi Enxi chuckled, "you're now a grandma, jiejie, you're getting old."

Li Bingbing frowned a bit. She lightly pinched her sister's cheek. "Aren't you the same?"

"Ugh. I can't believe I have a grandson at this age," she grunted. Her face darkened as well when she thought that the Bai family took advantage of her daughter's amnesia.

"I would love to introduce him to you..." Lu Mengjie said softly but her eyes showed sadness, "It's just... He is not allowed to go out... The Bai family won't allow me to bring him outside."

Shi Enxi furrowed her brows together. "What? Why?"

Lu Mengjie lowered her head and replied, "they won't allow it."

Li Bingbing sighed heavily. Of course, they wouldn't allow it. That child was going to be the next generation of the Bai family after all.

"What's his name, Mengmeng?" Her mother asked instead, diverting them from an earlier question.

"Bai Xiumin, his name is Bai Xiumin." 

"Do you have a photo of him?" Shi Enxi asked.

Lu Mengjie nodded, she took her phone out and showed them her son's picture. The raven-haired baby was sleeping in the photo that Lu Mengjie showed them. His skin whiter than milk, his cheeks were rosy and chubby like buns. He was a work of art, that's for sure. As she swiped and showed them the other photos, they saw his doll-like black eyes.

"He looks so cute!" Shi Enxi happily smiled and as she saw the photos, she unconsciously placed her hand on her tummy. She couldn't help but wonder if her child was going to look cute like Lu Mengjie's child.

"He looks like you as a baby." Li Bingbing chuckled softly. "He's adorable."

"I can't believe it, I have an adorable nephew..." Xia Liqin was staring closely at the photo. A deep frown appeared between his brows. He didn't like the idea of his sister marrying someone he has no connection with.

"You have to start believing it then." If only her son was allowed to be brought outside, Lu Mengjie would have proudly introduced her son to them.

"Xiao Xiumin eh?"

"I call him Huasheng," Lu Mengjie said with a small smile.

Peanut? They looked at her in confusion.

"He looked like a peanut when he was in my womb. Aside from that, I've been craving peanuts during my pregnancy. He is such a bright child. Also, he's like a pup."

Li Bingbing smiled when she noticed the motherly twinkle in her daughter's eyes. She was now an adult. "Well, at least you didn't forget that you have always loved dogs."

Even as a child, Lu Mengjie was fond of dogs, especially wolves. 

…

After meeting with Lu Mengjie, Shi Enxi went back to the hotel that she was staying at. Li Bingbing had to go back to China since she reserved the earliest schedule of the flight. She has been planning to drag her daughter back the same day but in the end, she ended up going back empty-handed. Xia Liqin went to drop her at the airport.

Lately, Shi Enxi has been feeling drowsy and easily tired because of her pregnancy. She lied down on her bed and hugged a pillow. When she remembered Lu Mengjie's baby, she placed her hand once again on her tummy, "If you're not going to be as cute as Mengmeng's child, I'm going to give you up for adoption."

But when she thought it out, there was still a high chance that her baby was going to be cute. Lu Mello's genes were great and so was hers. They both came from beautiful families.

Wait... "My mother's not that pretty..."

Mu Xijiu has average looks.

"If you're not going to be cute, that's fine. Just make sure you'll have my mother's looks."

While she was there, speaking alone with herself, her phone rang.

She looked at it and saw that it was a call from her husband.

She answered, "Hello?"

"You're still awake?"

She rolled her eyes at his stupid question, "No, I'm not. So, why did you call?"

He chuckled a bit, "I just wanted to check on you. Why do you sound like you're in a bad mood?"

"My menstruation came."

"..." Eh?

"But... You're pregnant..." He trailed off.

"Now I'm not."

"..."

When he heard that answer from her, he suddenly panicked. "Xi'er!"

Shi Enxi ended up laughing before she finally replied, "I'm kidding, I'm kidding."

The look on his face right now must be priceless. Oh how badly she wanted to see it.

"Please don't joke around like that." Lu Mello sighed. He almost had a heart attack.

"I'm sorry, " she chuckled lightly. "By the way, we found Mengmeng."

"Is she... really married now?" Lu Mello couldn't believe it. He thought that his cousin would never be able to find a man to commit her heart to because of her fondness for beauty. Men or women, nothing would ever escape her eyes.

"Yeah... To the Bai family's Bai Jingye."

Lu Mello was surprised to hear the name to the point where he became quiet for a few seconds. "Bai Jingye? How about her fiance?"

Shi Enxi sighed. She knew that it was going to be a problem. "Apparently, Mengmeng lost her memories so she can't really remember anything about that. Her situation is very complicated right now."

It was another shocking revelation for him. He didn't expect things to go that way. Just what the hell happened to her?

"Mello, don't tell anyone about this, okay?"

"Since when did I become a blabbermouth anyone?"

She could tell from his voice that he made a pout.

"I'm just saying." Besides, telling these to him only proved that she already trusted him. She knew that he was not the type of person to talk about such things to others so she didn't think twice about telling him the news.

"By the way, how are things there?"

"So far, things are going smoothly. She'll be meeting Chen Gao tomorrow."

Ah, it was finally tomorrow. They were finally going to capture that man tomorrow.

"Please be careful..." Shi Enxi softly whispered. She was hoping that everything will go according to their plan so that she can go to his side.

"I know..." His gentle voice was heard from the other line. "I miss you, Xi'er…"

"I miss you too..."

Just like him, Shi Enxi was longing to be in her husband's embrace.

"It's getting late, we should get some rest now."

"Mm... Good night, Mello."

"Good night."

She kept her phone under the pillow after ending the call.

It wasn't hard for her to fall asleep since she was already sleepy in the first place.

...

By the time Xia Liqin arrived, it was already late in the evening. His room was just next to Shi Enxi's.

He didn't sleep at once, instead, he took his laptop out just to video call someone.

"What is it?" A man's low voice was heard when the call went through.

The laptop screen was dim. Only a faint figure of a man was seen. 

"You, what did you do to my sister?" Xia Liqin's expression turned cold. He was glaring at the man on the screen. 

"What do you mean?"

"I'm not a fool, Wrath. If you think you can deceive everyone then you're wrong."

A deep, sinister chuckle was heard next. Small movements were seen since the man shifted his position. "You know that I can never hurt her."

"Bullshit! A psycho like you, never hurt her? I know that you've been running after her life for years. I've warned you so many times but you won't listen!" And so did his sister. He couldn't understand what kind of goodness she saw from him.

"Because I don't know what you're even talking about."

Xia Liqin only felt more frustrated. He has always been accusing him despite having no evidence that was why he couldn't bring his sister to believe him.
