Mu Shangbai's facial skin twitched and said, "It's dead."

Dian Wei sighed: "I met her by chance, and took a boat to Ice and Fire City together, and then happened to go along the way, and then took a carriage to Daningfang together, that's all."

Mu Shangbai: "But she entrusted the child to you, didn't she? If you were just a chance meeting, how could she hand over the child to a strange man she didn't know about?"

Dian Wei shrugged: "A woman's intuition, maybe she thinks I'm trustworthy."

Mu Shangbai's eyes suddenly narrowed: "She is not the kind of woman who easily trusts strange men. You deliberately approach her, deceive her trust, and then take away the child. What are you planning?"

Dian Wei Hehe: "You have a lot of imagination. What do you think I can have?"

Mu Shangbai fell silent.

Seeing this, Dian Wei asked back: "Do you think I have a bad intention, right? I'm very surprised. After she handed the child to me, she got off the carriage and entered the Mu Mansion, and never came out again. She didn't come out to have a child, and you didn't come out to find the child. And you didn't come to me until today. Why is that?"

Mu Shangbai lowered his head and sighed, "I, I never knew she had brought the child."

Dian Wei smiled coldly: "So, after she met you, she died of a life without even having time to tell you about her child, right?"

Mu Shangbai's face suddenly became as deep as water, his eyes emitted a hint of coldness, and he shouted: "If you are really just an irrelevant person, why should you care about these details?"

Dian Wei: "You can say that I am an irrelevant person. This is true. I was involved in it for no reason. Damn, I am too lazy to care about your bird affairs, but I was entrusted by others to be loyal to people. She asked me to help take care of the child. I agreed, so I will do it naturally. Let me tell you the truth, I have never planned to hand over the child to you. If you want to get back to the child, you have to ask yourself if you are worthy?"

Mu Shangbai: "That child has nothing to do with you, so you'd better not meddle in other people's business, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences."

"Threatening me?"

Dian Wei raised a finger and shook it, "The child is with me, I have the final say. Besides, is that child related to you? You can prove it first!"

Mu Shangbai breathed suffocated.

Dian Wei: "If you want to get back to your child, my conditions are very simple. You must publicly announce that the child is yours, give the child a legitimate position, and ensure that the child gets the treatment he deserves. If you can't do this, then you have nothing to do with the child. Stop being arrogant in front of me, Dian Wei will not take your tricks."

Mu Shangbai frowned and shook his head and said, "I have the last resort and I can't give her or that child any title."

Dian Wei sneered, "No sincerity at all, so let's talk to me. I advise you to go back and think about it carefully, and come and talk to me after thinking about it." He turned around and wanted to leave.

“Let’s wait…”

Mu Shangbai took out a small square brocade box from his arms and threw it to Dian Wei with one hand.

Dian Wei caught it with his cuff and said in confusion: "What?"

Mu Shangbai: "You will know when you open it and read it."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the courtyard wall.

Seeing this, Dian Wei slowly spoke, "Mu Shangbai, do you know how terrible a woman's intuition is? When she handed the child to me that day, she might have expected that she would not be able to come out alive, but she still entered Mu's mansion to look for you."

Mu Shangbai's whole body trembled, and he crossed the wall without saying a word, and disappeared from his sight.

Dian Wei took out a handkerchief, threw it off, and opened the lid of the brocade box.

In an instant, the things in the lid came into view.

It was a black oval object, like a small stone or a lotus seed.
