Lu Shi noticed the tense expression on Bai Shuilian's face and couldn't help but secretly sneer in her heart.
Mama Zhou brought over the child, and Lu Shi took it. She glanced down, her eyebrows twitching a few times, and involuntarily reached out to stroke the baby's brow and eyes.
"Madam..." Bai Shuilian's heart leapt into her throat, her voice trembling with fear.
Lu Shi looked over indifferently: "What are you so nervous about? Do you think I would stoop so low as to lay a hand on an innocent child?"
Bai Shuilian trembled: "I wouldn't dare."
Lu Shi snorted: "Wives and concubines have never walked the same path. You needn't begrudge me in your heart, and I'm not afraid to tell you plainly—I don't like you, and I suppose you feel the same."
Bai Shuilian was taken aback, tears welling in her eyes.
