Seeing this, Lin Xihe could only hold Tangbao and pace back and forth in the room, trying to soothe her emotions.
Mu Ruoyan followed behind them, step by step, but Tang Bao's crying never stopped.
He had imagined a heartwarming scene of himself and Lin Xihe playing with Tang Bao, filled with laughter and joy. However, reality was a far cry from his expectations.
As Tang Bao's cries grew increasingly hoarse, Lin Xihe felt a pang of heartache, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Oh? What's different?" Lin Xihe pretended to be puzzled.
"I invited him because I didn't want to see such a young child cry. If you invite him, it will only create more trouble," Mu Ruoyan said seriously, with a hint of warning in her tone.
