What was worse than a child throwing a crying tantrum for a toy? This. He shouldn’t have picked up the boy after the car crash, teaching him a bad habit. What now? He didn’t want to adhere to the boy’s whims and bring him to Bing Shi.

His wife would kill him if she knew that because of him, the boy learned how to obtain what he wanted by doing bad things. It wasn’t actually the boy who was causing those misfortunes, but the boy’s seemingly pure desires that triggered a butterfly effect.

Xuan Mu, ‘What would Bing Shi do?’

· · ———- · ???· ———- · ·

Xuan Mu carried the sleeping boy to Su Min’s ward. That unbelievable power came with a cost. The boy dropped tired shortly after the accident occurred. What would Bing Shi do? She would stop spoiling the boy, “When you get back to the office, find me the best nanny.”

“Yes! Mr. Kai... Whose child is that?” Asked the assistant, unable to hide his curiosity. He had never seen such an adorable baby before. It was as if a fluff of innocence scratched at his heartstring, making him awww at all of the little boy’s movements. Just look at how cutely the boy clutched onto Mr. Kai’s shirt.

.....

“My... godson,” answered Xuan Mu as he placed the boy into Su Min’s bossom, which made the child wake up immediately. Mo Luwei got her pregnant again because of a superstitious belief that it would repel the boy’s negative energy.

Sobbing in relief, Su Min hugged her son, rocking him up and down while bowing her head in Xuan Mu’s direction weakly, “Thank you. Thank you. Thank You.”

Xuan Mu sat at the stool by the bedside, observing Su Min, “Your husband almost starved Ying Xong to death.”

Su Min flinched, “How is that possible? Ying Xong... he... he is our son.”

“Have you ever thought about me being Ying Xong’s father instead?” Seeing her cheeks turning rosy red, Xuan Mu chuckled, he leaned closer, their foreheads almost touching, “Is that a yes?”

Flustered, Su Min’s heartbeat sped up.

Looking down, Xuan Mu’s head hit Su Min’s nose as he pecked the boy’s forehead. In the past, he tried to make Bing Shi jealous to the point where flirting with women became a habit; he used to charm every woman who gave him vibes indicating their willingness to commit infidelity. It was like they gave him consent to make an approach.

What would he do if a child threatened his wife’s life? Would he kill the child too? Wasn’t the answer clear? He could live without a child, but not without Bing Shi. Picking himself up, he left the ward.

Leaning against the door, Xuan Mu looked up at the ceiling as that boy’s desperate cry sliced through the silence. That boy’s power wasn’t a simple coincidence anymore. If that boy killed Su Min then he was too dangerous to be alive and far too dangerous to be near Bing Shi. Yes, he was using Su Min as a lab rat.

?? There is a reason why I’m still standing,

in my flesh and blood, living and breathing,

everyone is looking, everyone is looking,

but nobody sees, nobody knows,

We are a secret, that’s the truth. ??

While Xuan Mu wiped his hands, Su Min played Bing Shi’s song to silence the boy. That mother and son duo were Bing Shi’s fans. The boy’s attachment to his wife wasn’t exactly unexplainable. During some of her most hopeless days, Su Min would call his wife for some mental support... Because of that, it’s no wonder that boy would be so stone-focused on meeting his wife.

His heart almost dropped off his chest when he felt an approaching presence. Hurriedly rushing to her side, he checked her up and down, “What are you doing here?”

Taking off her mask and sunglasses, Bing Shi leaned against the door next to him, droplets of sweat appeared on her nose and forehead. Just dressing up and coming here took so much of her energy. She felt tired; like she would fall asleep any second.

There was still some of the drug’s residue that had to be withdrawn, but her body should be slowly getting used to absorbing the nutrients from liquid food, “I thought I could join in on the fun.”

Xuan Mu bit his lips in distress, placing her arm around his shoulder, he supported her up, “You shouldn’t have come. Let’s go home.”

“And then what? Not take part of the fun? Nah,” Bing Shi opened the door to the ward, smiling in greeting at Su Min, she crouched before the dazed toddler, “Thank you for giving him a chance to be a daddy,” taking his little hand into hers, they made a delicate handshake gesture, “Little Hero, I hope you gave him a very hard time.”

“Mommy,” The little toddler reached out his palms towards Bing Shi, her words were like tickling fingers. He giggled and wiggled, not realizing how much his words hurt Su Min.

Su Min carried him for nine months, went through the pain of giving birth, breastfed him, sang him to sleep and she loved him with all her heart- so why did Silika receive so much credit?

Bing Shi placed the boy’s palm on Su Min’s cheek, slapping her slightly. Then one more time, but a little harder and more firmly. When the boy got a grip of it and slapped his own mom of his own accord, she burst into laughter, “Bwahaha, good one!” Encouraged, the boy slapped his mum again with similar giggles.

“...” Xuan Mu’s lips twitched. His wife really came just to join the fun.

“Mo Ying Xiong!” Su Min raised her voice in anger as she reprimanded the little boy, grabbing his fists, stopping his fun. When the boy shrunk in fear and reached out towards Silika, she regretted her actions and soothed him apologetically.

“You really have no authority over him,” Bing Shi motioned with her eyes for the boy to go ahead.

And like that, Su Min received another slap.

“You!” Su Min pointed at Bing Shi unbelievingly, she just reprimanded her son, of course she had some authority over him, “What are you teaching my son?!”

“Bad things,” Bing Shi sent the boy a big thumbs up, “He’ll be surrounded by such things every day, you can’t protect him from that... but at least try and prevent him from doing them.”

“How?! He’s just a toddler!” Su Min broke down in tears.

Bing Shi grabbed the boy’s hands and used them to caress Su Min’s cheeks in a circular motion, “Rub, rub, rub,” when the boy wanted to slap the crying Su Min again, she pressed his hands firmer, “Rub, rub, rub.” Whenever Su Min’s crying increased or decreased, they patiently repeated the pattern, “Rub, rub, rub.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Wub, wub, wub,” the boy repeated Bing Shi’s words, causing everyone to laugh, even Su Min.

Bing Shi then turned his tiny hands around, showing them before his eyes, “Woah, aren’t your hands magical? You made mommy laugh so much,” she tickled his palms. The boy might not understand her words, but he could feel the familiarity in her voice and the change in the atmosphere.

“I-I...” Su Min’s voice staggered when the boy rubbed her cheeks again. The boy tried to cheer her up, so how could she continue crying?

“He’s such a quick learner,” Bing Shi narrowed her eyes at her husband, “Don’t. You. Agree?”

Xuan Mu coughed into his fist without answering, feeling a tad guilty.

The merry-go-round atmosphere suddenly vanished when Mo Luwei appeared.

“Mo Luwei! You can’t kill our son!” Su Min shielded her son protectively, “Just kill me instead!”

Spotting that child, Mo Luwei’s expression turned dark, “Killing him will only dirty my hands,” recognizing Silika, his expression turned darker, “I heard you’re gravely ill. Seems like nuisances never die.”

Xuan Mu, who was standing by the wall, grabbed Mo Luwei by the throat and yanked him to the ground, “Motherfu-...Let me bust that fact by killing you right HERE and NOW.”
