After successfully sneaking in, Xue Ni took advantage of a break from work to begin observing the situation in the house.

It looks like a small place, but it's incredibly big inside. Every corner is edged with gold. No wonder there are so many illegal transactions at the border. With such a lucrative opportunity, who could resist the temptation?

She searched several courtyards but couldn't find Tang Nuan. She was even stopped and questioned by bodyguards. Fortunately, she had a maid's certificate, otherwise she would have been detained.

"This place is so big, I'm already dizzy. Where could Siye possibly have hidden Tang Nuan and the child?"

She casually picked a branch and played with it, and now she couldn't contact anyone outside. She guessed Tang Yao was getting impatient waiting for her.

When they came in, all their communication devices were confiscated, and they were not allowed to use their own mobile phones here.

"Hey, weren't they saying the child would be sent away tonight? Why is there still no news?"

Just as she was worrying, two servants walked over from the front.

An eighteen-year-old girl was crying, covering one side of her swollen face, while another person comforted her.

"Stop crying. If you get hit by her, just accept your bad luck. When we first came here, she hit us every day. She likes to hit us when she's in a bad mood, and there's nothing we can do about it."

"It wasn't my fault that the child cried; he was clearly hungry. But she insisted that I didn't know how to take care of a child, and she even splashed hot water on me and slapped me..."

"Alright, alright, stop crying. Be more careful next time."

"Two beautiful ladies," Xue Ni stopped them, smiling, "Where is the child you were talking about?"

The two men recoiled in fear upon seeing her, asking warily, "What do you want?"

Under the light, the red birthmark on Xue Ni's face looked somewhat eerie.

"Oh, I just arrived today. They told me to deliver something to the child, but I'm lost and don't know which way to go."

The two men stared at her intently, neither of them willing to speak.

Xue Ni reached into her pocket, took out a small medicine box, and handed it to them. "This was sent by my family. It's for wiping my face in case I get hurt. It's very effective. Apply it and your face won't be swollen by tomorrow. Otherwise, such a beautiful face could be ruined."

Upon hearing this, the girl happily took the ointment and put it in her pocket, saying, "Thank you."

"Then can you tell me where the child is?"

"It's in Miss Song's room. Just walk straight ahead and then turn right. Otherwise, we should warn you that Miss Song has a bad temper, so be careful."

Okay, thank you.

Xue Ni followed the direction they indicated and saw Song Wan sitting inside as soon as she reached the door.

"Chen Qi said a car would come to pick us up, but why hasn't it arrived yet?"

Song Wan paced anxiously around the room, trying to call him but no one answered.

She waited all day, just waiting for nightfall to take the child out.

The baby in the cradle is sound asleep, having had enough milk.

She kicked the cradle and cursed, "I'll throw you into the sea later and that'll be the end of it. Just go to sleep. You're just as annoying as your parents."

This Song Wan is truly despicable.

Xue Ni was peeking from outside. Although she had never met this woman before, from what Qin Xuan and the others had said and what she had seen with her own eyes, this woman was indeed no pushover.

She glanced at the baby in the cradle; it seemed relatively safe for now. She had to find a way to stall them and prevent them from taking the baby away.

Xue Ni thought for a moment, and a flash of inspiration struck her.

Got it!
