Just thinking about them made her chest ache. She wished she could hold them right now, could see their faces, could tell them that Mama was coming back for them.
"Oooh..." Shuyin withdrew her hand and leaned back against the seat, closing her eyes as if processing this information. "You give me one of them."
The words hung in the air like a death sentence.
"No... No... I can't... I can't..." Chen Wan's voice rose with panic, her hands instinctively crossing over her chest as if to protect children who weren't even there. How could she give away her baby? Was this woman insane?
"Aaaahh? Don't be stingy!" Shuyin's aura immediately shifted, the temperature in the car dropping several degrees. Her voice took on that flat, emotionless quality that was somehow more terrifying than anger. "If you don't give me one, I will kick you out of this car right now."
Why would she want someone's child? What kind of person demanded a child as payment?
