Zhu Xiu reached Bai Wanwan's bedside in just a few quick steps.
"Wanwan just gave birth. Take the cubs to their nest so she can rest for a while longer."
Yan Lie was also worried the cubs might tire Wanwan, so he immediately stood up. Carefully cradling his own cubs, he walked toward their little nest, feeling happy and content.
After Yan Lie left with the cubs, Zhu Xiu sat down on the edge of the bed.
He took her hand, which rested by her side. His usually cool voice was tinged with concern. "Are you in any pain?"
Bai Wanwan shook her head. "I'm not. And I have some good news for you."
"Oh? What is it?"
"Come a little closer." Her eyes curved into crescents as she winked at him.
How could Zhu Xiu refuse her when she was like this? A hint of indulgence on his face, he quickly lowered his head.
Bai Wanwan let go of his hand, raised hers to wrap around his neck, and leaned in close to his ear. Her voice was laced with a smile. "Zhu Xiu, your Dark Curse can be broken!"
