Lin Ranyue gave birth to a boy, and the fact that he was a rmaid Beastman had also reached the ears of the Mu Family.
A group of old folks sat in the carved wooden chairs of the main hall, looking at each other in silence.
Don’t ask, for asking would only bring deep regret.
If they had known what today would bring, why did they do what they did?
After a long while, it was still the Mu Family patriarch who coughed lightly.
"Send soone to deliver so gifts, and beyond that, don’t say anything else."
Inside, however, they were still reluctant.
But for now, they had tried every tactic, tough and soft alike.
Alas, to no avail.
They could only maintain contact for the ti being and not completely sever ties with the other party. As for the future... that would be addressed later.
Just at this mont, the Mu butler ca in from outside and approached the Mu Family patriarch.
He said in a low voice, "Master, soone has co from outside. He says he has a way to help you solve an urgent problem."
The Mu patriarch scoffed coldly, "How does he know what urgent problem I have!"
The Mu butler hesitated a few seconds before saying, "Heirship."
The Mu patriarch: "..."
Ten minutes later, in the Mu Family’s small reception room, there were only the Mu patriarch, the Mu butler, and a stranger.
The patriarch looked at the man before him.
He frowned and said, "Who are you?"
The man wore a black suit and a black hat, seemingly shrouded in darkness.
Beneath his rimd glasses, his gaze seed sowhat sinister.
He said, "Mr. Mu, it doesn’t matter who I am. What matters is, I have a way to make the son born to Lin Ranyue bear the na Mu."
The Mu patriarch’s eyes widened, "What way do you have?"
The man in black smiled, took out two boxes, one large and one small, and pushed them towards the Mu patriarch.
He said, "You consu the contents of the larger box, and then you just need to find a way to get Gu Lei or Lin Ranyue to consu the contents of the smaller box. After more than twenty-four hours, whatever you say, they will obey."
The Mu patriarch looked skeptical, "Really? What exactly is this stuff?"
The man in black: "It’s rely a plant, it won’t pose any danger to your bodies."
The Mu patriarch was still full of doubts.
He asked, "What’s your sche? Why out of the blue are you doing this?"
The man in black smiled, "I had so previous issues with Gu Lei, nothing too serious. I just don’t like to see him getting his way all the ti."
The Mu patriarch was sowhat confused, "What exactly do you an?"
The man in black: "You can think of it as wanting to give Gu Lei so trouble, to keep him occupied recently. It won’t harm him, nor will it be detrintal to you."
After saying this, the man in black turned to leave.
He took a few steps, then turned back and said, "If you’re not reassured, you can have soone check it, or simply not deliver it at all, it’s entirely up to you."
After these words, the man in black left.
The Mu patriarch’s gaze fell on the two boxes.
The man in black walked out of the Mu estate, paused at the gate to look at the osmanthus flowers.
He squinted his eyes, then stepped onto the transporter.
Once inside the transporter, the man in black took off his hat, discarded his rimd glasses.
His facial features slowly began to change.
In the end, they morphed into peach blossom eyes.
The diamond earring in his left ear glinted with an enchanting light.

Su Wan was getting ready to participate in the military academy competition.
Before that, she went to visit her mother, Lin Ranyue, again.
She also brought so gifts for her rmaid younger brother.
During this ti, Lin Ranyue had regained her health, her complexion looking rosy and vibrant.
Su Wan ca with Little Gu Chen in tow.
Little Gu Chen was particularly fond of this little uncle who loved swimming so much!
The two kids were swimming back and forth in the pool.
Lin Ranyue watched them, amused and bemused, "Xiaochen is so fond of swimming, huh? Even though the Wolf Clan beastn aren’t afraid of water, he shouldn’t like swimming this much."
Look at that, the wolf-eared baby is even swimming faster than the little rmaid!
Su Wan looked around and saw that there was no one else.
She lowered her voice and said, "It was who swam with him at ho."
Lin Ranyue was startled, "Xiaowan, you didn’t like swimming before, did you?"
Su Wan didn’t hide it from her mother and told her about becoming a rmaid beastman.
Lin Ranyue was dumbfounded for a while.
Su Wan said, "Mom, I didn’t an to keep it from you. Before, my condition was unstable, and Ajue was also worried about causing other issues, so he didn’t let tell you."
Lin Ranyue said, "I understand, are you feeling better now?"
Su Wan nodded, "I’ve stabilized now. And now that you have a younger son, I thought you might accept it more easily."
Lin Ranyue was shocked, but she was more concerned about her daughter’s health.
Seeing that she was fine, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
Lin Ranyue exclaid, "I never would have imagined that we are descendants of that queen. But since she chose to live incognito with her lover, there’s no need to bring this up with the people from rmaid Planet."
Su Wan agreed, "That’s what Ajue and I think as well."
Lin Ranyue said, "Then Xiaowan, unless it’s absolutely necessary, don’t reveal your golden fishtail."
Su Wan nodded.
Su Wan was a bit worried about her mother because she was about to attend a competition.
She said, "Mom, when people from the Mu Family co, just don’t see them. Don’t accept their gifts; just tell them to wait for Director Gu’s return."
Lin Ranyue replied, "I’ve always kept my distance from those people, don’t worry, Xiaowan."
Su Wan was still sowhat uneasy.
"When the ti cos, Director Gu will also have to follow the team to the training base, and you won’t be able to contact each other usually. If there’s an ergency, you can go to Ajue, as he can get in touch with . Also, I’ll ask my second brother if he’s free these half a month to visit you more often."
Lin Ranyue, unable to resist her daughter’s insistence, nodded in agreent to everything.
Su Wan was leaving for the training camp, and she would be gone for at least fourteen days!
The wolf-eared baby seed a bit unhappy.
Back ho, Little Gu Chen watched his mom packing, then silently lay down in Su Wan’s foldable suitcase.
Turning around and seeing him, Su Wan was torn between laughter and tears.
"Xiaochen, mommy can’t take you with her."
Little Gu Chen said, "Miss mommy."
Su Wan replied, "I haven’t even left yet, and you’re already missing ."
She picked up her son, rubbing the soft little wolf ears atop his head.
Little Gu Chen humd and murmured in mommy’s arms.
Su Wan’s heart lted at the sight, nearly deciding to sneak her son into the training camp!
But without bringing him, looking at the poor, pitiful little expression of the wolf-eared baby,
How could she bear it?
Co evening, when Gu Jue returned ho from the military departnt, he saw his little wife looking distressed.
His fine brows raised, "Wanwan, what’s wrong?"
"I’m about to go to the competition, and it’s going to be more than half a month. What should I do if I miss Xiaochen?"
The usually cold and aloof Commander’s eyes drooped, his expression forlorn.
"Is it just Xiaochen you’ll miss?"
