At that moment, Luo Baiyun's eyes met Sun Xumei's. Luo Baiyun paused in his thoughts and asked, "What are you doing here? The doctor told you to sleep early!"

Because Sun Xumei couldn't sleep easily, Luo Baiyun was always in constant worry. 

Luo Baiyun was a bit anxiously as he strode towards Sun Xumei. At the same time, he took off his outer suit and wrapped it around her body. 

"It's cold. Why are you wearing so little?" Luo Baiyun chided her with a helpless tone. Even though the inside of the mansion was warm, he was still worried about the heavy fall of snow. 

"How can I take care of myself without any worry when my two children aren't here? Don't you think you are going too far with them? Sometimes, I even think that they will meet their doom here!" As Sun Xumei glared at Luo Baiyun, her finger stealthily went up and pinched the man's armpit harsely. 

Even though he was in pain, his face didn't contract. Instead he glanced around and was relieved that nobody was around them. He didn't want her to get reprimanded by his mother.

Luo Baiyun didn't utter a word and grabbed her hand. Then he dragged her into the bedroom and locked the door.

The man took her to the bed and sat her down. While rubbing her somewhat cold hand, he murmured, "The children have already become adults and busy with their own life. They aren't little babies anymore who need us now."

Hearing him, Sun Xumei became sad and lowered her eyes. He noticed it and tightened his hold on her hand. 

"My days hardly pass now. How will I spend my time..." Sun Xumei looked troubled. At that time, if she knew that her son was put in difficult position by the two old men, she would have flared up like a venomous snaku!

"Those little bastards won't have any children in the near future. Shall we adopt a child?" Luo Baiyun suggested with hopeful eyes. 

Sun Xumei shook her head and wanted to leave but Luo Baiyun refused to let her go. He realised that she wasn't willing to adopt one. At that, a calculative smile broke out on his face. 

"Say, why don't we try for another child?" Luo Baiyun said ambiguously as he stole a kiss from Sun Xumei. 

At this, the other person's face turned scarlet. She shouted in a low voice as she pushed him away while glaring at him, "You crazy! We are old enough to use a cane now and you are talking about a child?!"

"Where is it told that middle-aged people can't have children?!" Luo Baiyun protested with widened eyes!

"..." 

"Why don't we try first? I am sure it will be fun if we have a little one in 'accident'. Also, people aren't so bored to say anything, only you are overthinking."

Luo Baiyun hugged her tightly and murmured. Sun Xumei hesitated as she lifted her face and whispered, "But…"

"No, but. Before I thought that when they grow up, we will get to play with our grandchildren. But by the way they are now, it will be far when they will get married!" Luo Baiyun tried to coax her but Sun Xumei recalled something and turned to face him. 

"Didn't Xixi get the proposal from…" Sun Xumei tried to recall but Luo Baiyun caught her hands. 

"She didn't reply. It's undecided…" Luo Baiyun murmured as blinked his eyes and added, "The door is locked…"

Sun Xumei became shy and nodded. Finally, Luo Baiyun showed a huge smile. He thought it would be magnificent when he would get to see the face of his father if Sun Xumei could be pregnant.



"One day has passed. Two days have passed.….. and like that one week has already passed! But I didn't see him at all!" Luo Lixi gritted her teeth as she threw away the blanket and glared outside. 

The heavy snowfall was also the reason why her mood was bad. As time passed by she got a weird feeling. As if all the guards and maids were keeping a sharp look on her. 

When she tried to go outside, not to say she would meet the strong opposition of them, she would get locked in her room to turn into a hot potato.

When one week passed without any sight of him, she could no longer be at ease. She made up her mind after waking up on the eighth day from sleep and then opened the door to confront them!

The maid who was in charge of taking care of her, forced out a smile and said, "Miss, you are already awake? Should I bring breakfast?"

Nana blinked her eyes and asked even though she was holding a tray filled with food. If people were to watch her carefully, they would notice a trace of disdain in those eyes.

But Luo Lixi was totally uninterested in her and showed her open palm to her, "My phone!"

"What?" While smiling mockingly, she asked.

"My phone! Give me my phone!" Luo Lixi spoke with a loud and clear voice. Her words were sharp as she glared at the maid. 

Even if she wasn't interested in her, that didn't mean that she didn't know Nana's thought, not to say she remembered the past life's incident!

Nana was taken aback when Luo Lixi suddenly changed her demeanor. Luo Lixi stepped very close to her and said again, "My phone!"

The maid was scared and retracted with the tray in her hands. She turned to another maid who came with her. The other maid shook her head at Nana. 

"I am sorry, Miss but I can't give you that. Young master told us it's bad for your health, so… " Nana composed herself and used Sheng Ruming to scare her off. 

"Huh! Bad? Why does it sound so familiar?!" Luo Lixi mumbled with hidden anger. With red eyes, she looked at the maid before her sharp eyes squinted quite a bit. 

She didn't want to say anything else and stared at the ground weakly. All things became clear to her at that moment. 

'Am I being confined? Why's that?' Luo Lixi was puzzled and didn't find the reason for it. 

Nana scoffed and turned towards the other maid with a knowing look. To them, it was clear the position of Luo Lixi. 

Getting locked in a faraway place from the city, being refused to let use any electronic device… They thought she was being kept by Sheng Ruming. 

Luo Lixi noticed they were exchanging glances and realised that her situation was being misunderstood. 

'Don't tell me… they thought I was a mistress?! Not again!' Luo Lixi smiled wryly as she glanced at the maids. The two maids looked at each other and then decided to remain silent as they intended to enter Luo Lixi's room.

But Luo Lixi blocked them and said with a frown, "I want to talk with someone, give me my phone."

"We can't… Please try to understand." The maid whispered. Inwardly she was cursing Luo Lixi to act as if she didn't hear anything.

"Huh! Do you know the price of confining someone without their consent?! I will make sure to throw you all in jail!" Luo Lixi finally flared up like a venomous snake. 

"Try to understand, Miss. If we give you your phone, then we will lose our jobs." Nana said anxiously. 

Even though they knew they had to do this illegal work to keep their job, it wasn't uncommon for wealthy people to do this.

But how could Luo Lixi stay calm when she was being forced against her will?!

Thus, she decided to approach in another way. Luo Lixi took a deep breath and then put a smile on her face. She stepped ahead and then took the tray from Nana's hand.

"I am not unreasonable and never want you to lose your job. Just that I have a company to run. Staying here like this, it's impossible to work…" Luo Lixi said while entering her room.

Both Nana and the other maid exchanged a look of doubt and entered the room as well. 

"I'll make sure to back you up if you lose your job. By the way, I'm Luo Lixi." Luo Lixi whispered while moving her bangs behind her ears, smugly. 

Hearing her Nana was indifferent as she was unaware about it but the other maid was visibly excited.

"Ah, the owner of DreamArt?!"

Noticing the visible excitement on the maid's face, Luo Lixi nodded with triumph. The maid's face flushed as she took out her own phone and excitedly handed it over.

"Miss, please use mine!" 

"..." Nana was stumped by the betrayal of her subordinate! What happened to stay firm and work as per the instructions of their master?! 

Nonetheless, while she was hesitating as to what she should do, Luo Lixi already turned her back to her and called Pan Er Jiu.

Pan Er Jiu called out pitifully from the other side, "Boss, ah! You are alive?!" 

"Why won't I be?" Luo Lixi said as she walked towards the window. The maid followed her behind while her eyes followed Luo Lixi as if she was seeing her idol!
