Chapter 182: Have Her Detained (2/2)

It was a light that shone from within her, an aura of dazzling confidence.

This was what Mubai loved most about her.

Whenever he saw her this way, his heart would be rocked, as if swept away by an April Shower.

At that moment, the attraction was at its hardest. The urge to have Xinghe detained and shackled, to keep her for himself rose up within Mubai!

But he knew he couldn't…

The freedom was part of Xinghe's beauty. Like a born-again phoenix, she needed the open sky to spread her wings, to extend her glory.

Mubai suppressed his inner feelings and looked at her with a burning gaze, promising, ”Alright, since you're so confident, go ahead and try. If you can accomplish this, I will grant you the wish that you want, so will the entire Xi Family!”

At that moment, Mubai no longer cared about the custody battle.

Because he wanted not only the child, but also his mother…

So, what if he gave her the child? In the end, Lin Lin would return to him because he aimed to make her his as well.

”For real?” Xinghe said with obvious excitement.

”Would I lie to someone as important as you?” Mubai replied with a light smile. There was obvious flirtation in his words but it flew over Xinghe's head because she was too happy focusing on the fact that he had agreed to her request, albeit on conditions.

Looks like Old Madam Xi's situation was indeed the biggest problem facing Xi Family…

”Your words alone mean nothing to me, I need your grandfather to swear to it too,” Xinghe said cautiously. In Mubai's ears, marinated in the haze of infatuation, she sounded like a child asking an adult for a pinky promise.

He suppressed the urge to tousle her hair and responded with a wide smile, ”You don't have to worry about that because grandfather cares deeply about grandmother. He will do anything for her. In fact, if you're still worried, why don't we go confirm with him now?”

He then pulled her back to meet Grandfather Xi.

After listening to Xinghe's offer, Grandfather Xi was both surprised and suspicious, ”You have confidence you can accomplish this?”

”I'm 70 to 80 percent confident that it'll be a success,” Xinghe replied truthfully but it was translated into impudence when it reached Grandfather Xi's ears.

He glared at her and responded with a sneer, ”Young lady, might I remind you that talk is cheap?”
