When they left Xi Family's old family mansion, the sun had set.
Mubai's towering figure strode in front while Xinghe followed his back. There was an unspoken familiarity between the two of them.
Xinghe was pricked by a sudden inspiration and she turned to see Lin Lin standing at the villa entrance staring at her.
Xinghe read on his face the reluctance to part.
She too was broken-hearted. If possible, she would grab him and run.
But she knew it wouldn't work…
Grandfather Xi, to emphasize his intent, forbade her from meeting her son before she could produce the result.
If she failed to come up with anything within this one month, he would personally make sure the mother and son never got to meet again.
After all, Xinghe promised him success. Grandfather Xi would never allow her to renege on her promise.
If she failed, there would be hell to pay.
