160 A Cold, Desperate Woman (1/2)
That weekend, Aoi Xiu declared that she will be kidnapping her baby grandson.
She and Xiu Jin bid the couple goodbye while flashing their meaningful smiles.
Midori almost could not help herself but worry too much.
She pumped out enough milk for the weekend away for her son to consume.
After waving goodbye to her parents and baby for the nth time, Midori stood grounded on her spot in a daze long after the car had disappeared.
”Wanna drive?” Dan's voice snapped her out of her thoughts.
To her surprise, he tossed the car key to her. Her good reflexes caught it.
When she looked at her hand, she saw the familiar key. It was her car, and it was already out of the garage, parked behind her.
She giddily opened the fold up doors and sat on the driver's seat.
She sighed as she caressed the steering wheel. This was her first baby.
As if remembering something, she frowned. ”Where are we going?”
”You'll know.” He flashed a mischievous smile. ”I'll tell you when to turn.”
”Okay!” She had a bright smile as she stepped on the accelerator.

”I'd like to remind everyone that Xiu Jin is my husband. Failure to accomplish any task from him and you'll have to answer to me!” With that, Aoi Xiu went out of the study, taking her sleeping grandson, and leaving 5 men who were facing her husband.
”Hai!” they said in chorus as they bowed at her retreating figure.
”Thank you...for coming in such a short notice. I believe that my men alone could not handle such merciless opponents...” Xiu Jin started his agenda.
When the matter regarding Masaichi Xiu was mentioned, all the 5 men clenched theirs fists tightly as if on cue. Veins started to become prominent, and the knuckles turned white.
