The child would forever be a part of the Xi Family; her wish was impossible.

"No matter what, I can't give you Lin Lin," Mubai rejected firmly.
Xinghe frowned. "Is there no room for negotiation?"
"There is none…" unless you're still my wife.
The thought suddenly flashed across Mubai's mind and he shuddered.
Iciness crept into Xinghe's voice, "I am Lin Lin's mother. Can't I look after him for a few years?"
"You can visit him any time you want."
"But I want to be a constant part of his life, to give him everything he deserves…"
"My Xi Family can provide him with everything, better than what you could provide," Mubai said over her. It silenced Xinghe.
He was right, the Xi Family could give Lin Lin everything he needed and more.
