Lin Man sat by the bed, she was recovering well. Jiang Xuzhi stayed by her side, their eyes fell on the crib, two babies playing happily, adding some life to the room.

Looking at the child, Jiang Xuzhi's usually stern face showed a rare hint of warmth. Newborn babies are always particularly lovable.

Dabao was the older brother, and he was lively and naughty. Whenever Jiang Xuzhi reached out to tease him, the little guy would excitedly dance his legs, kicking hard, and giggling at Jiang Xuzhi.

The second baby is the younger sister. In comparison, she is much quieter. She lies quietly in a corner of the crib, her hands clenched tightly, and her little mouth sucking her fingers rhythmically. Look at her seriousness. Her little appearance is so adorable.

Dabao kicked very vigorously, and soon, Jiang Xuzhi's arm turned red. The nurse watching this scene couldn't help but smile and praise.

"These two children are so beautiful. They look like Miss Lin. I have taken care of many newborns, but this is the first time I have seen such good skin right after birth. It is so tender, like tofu just out of the pot. And their eyes are black, just like two plump grapes."

The nurse was about to continue praising him, but her lips froze suddenly. She started to wonder, and looked at the two children carefully. She couldn't tell how they looked like Jiang Xuzhi. However, their eyebrows and faces were full of the shadow of Lin Man.

At this time, Lin Man wiped her lips gently and said softly: "I'm full."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Xuzhi's phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the screen, his eyes moved slightly, then he picked up the phone and walked out of the room.

Lin Man looked at his departing figure, sighed softly, and slowly got out of bed. She moved to the cradle, staring at the two babies quietly, her heart felt like it was gently brushed by the softest feather, and a circle of warmth appeared.

But the next moment, her heart tightened. It was far from the time to relax. It was really inappropriate to continue staying here. Jiang Xuzhi had always been a treacherous and unpredictable person. During the time she had been with him, Lin Man's heart was tense and she could never really see through his thoughts.

She still has to find a chance to leave here.

With the help of Pei Yan's "seed", Lin Man gave birth to two babies.

Lin Man felt relieved at the thought of being able to run away with her children and get rid of all this, making some people angry.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but reach out her hand and gently touch Erbao's face. Erbao's skin was as delicate as tender tofu. As soon as Lin Man's fingers pressed down lightly, the skin bounced back quickly, and the touch was great.

I never had the chance to take a good look at these two children before, but now that I have calmed down and looked at them, I was surprised to find that Dabao's eyebrows and eyes really look like Pei Yan. Pei's mother once showed Lin Man a photo of Pei Yan when he was a child. In comparison now, Dabao is simply a smaller version of Pei Yan.

Just as she was thinking, Jiang Xuzhi pushed the door open and walked in. He stood at the door, his eyes fixed on the two children in the cradle. His eyes were so deep that they seemed to be frost-covered.

Lin Man instinctively rejected his gaze and immediately asked him to leave on the pretext that she needed to feed her child.

But when Lin Man was about to close the door, Jiang Xuzhi stretched out his hand to block the door, pushed it hard, and strode in. Although his movements were powerful, they were not rough, but the look in his eyes made people feel scared.

In front of the cradle, he quietly stared at the two children, and he didn't know how long he had been watching. Perhaps they were already familiar with his scent, as soon as the two children saw him, they excitedly waved their hands and babbled, as if begging Jiang Xuzhi to continue to play with them.

Jiang Xuzhi's eyebrows moved slightly, and the corners of his mouth raised a faint arc. He suddenly said coldly: "Tell me, if I imprison you here, announce to the public that you are dead, and then raise these two children to adulthood, and tell them that Pei Yan killed their mother, what do you think will happen to them when they grow up?"

Before he finished speaking, Lin Man had already rushed to him, her eyes full of anger and vigilance: "Jiang Xuzhi, no matter what grudge you have with the Pei family, don't involve the child!"

"These two children are the blood of the Pei family. If you dare to touch them, it will be equivalent to making a deadly feud with the Pei family. Pei Yan will not let you go, and Pei Zhenting will not let you go!"

"Besides, this is Pei Yan's own flesh and blood. They share the same blood. How can you separate them with just a few provocative words?"

"You have come to where you are today, and you have put in so much effort. It was not easy to lay the foundation for this foreign country. Don't ruin everything because of a momentary impulse or a few slanderous words from others!"

These words seemed to make Jiang Xuzhi regain some of his rationality. Lin Man could clearly feel that the cold aura emanating from Jiang Xuzhi was getting weaker.

She subconsciously thought of the phone call he had just received, and couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Was it Gan Yuxi who called you?"

Jiang Xuzhi remained silent and turned to leave the room. He did not come back the whole night.

Lin Man woke up early the next morning. After lunch, she said to the nurse, "I'm going out for a walk."

Then, she walked out of the room. Along the way, she quietly observed the surroundings and soon discovered that there was a sentry post every few steps. The guards held guns in their hands and looked very cold.

It seems that we cannot leave here rashly.

Just as she was about to walk back, she heard a shrill scream. Lin Man paused and subconsciously walked towards the direction of the sound, but suddenly a pair of hands stopped her. "Ms. Lin, you've come to the wrong place."

Lin Man frowned and said, "I just heard someone shouting for help. Who is imprisoned in here?" The man replied expressionlessly, "You heard it wrong. Please go back and don't let Mr. Jiang worry."

At this moment, a painful wail was heard again in the room: "Help!"

Lin Man stared at the man straight in the eyes. He seemed to feel guilty because of what she was looking at him. In desperation, he had to tell the truth: "The prisoners held here are important. No one can go in without Mr. Jiang's order."

Lin Man nodded gently, turned around and walked back without saying a word. However, that night, she went to the warehouse under the pretext of delivering food. The man on night watch looked at Lin Man closely with a sharp gaze, his eyes slightly narrowed.

It was just that the light around him was too dim, so he couldn't see clearly. "This woman is doomed anyway, why did Mr. Jiang send someone to deliver food?"

The man couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Lin Man felt a little uncomfortable with his scrutinizing gaze.

The man asked, "Are you sure this food is not for us?"
