The following day, Kaito and Akira woke up late after a long night of catching up. Even though they did not sleep a lot, their faces were radiant as they walked into the living room hand in hand. Their smiles looked as wide as a clown's. 

Hu Lei looked up from her computer. She was catching up on some of her correspondence from her publisher, Bo Qian. Originally, she planned to drop her writing career after publishing 'Forgive Me, Father', but she had resumed writing during her pregnancy. 

If she had not, she would have been driven mad by doing nothing. 

"Have you heard of a certain invention called a door?" Hu Lei asked Kaito. 

"Doors are for suckers," Kaito said. 

He wanted to continue when he noticed Xiao Bao in the white playpen behind Hu Lei. His eyes widened as he released Akira's hand and walked to the small structure. He bent down and looked at the child with blazing eyes. 

Xiao Bao looked at the person looking down at him with derision. He did not like people who were too passionate about him. Every time someone approached his little self with interest, he would feel very suspicious. 

Kaito did not know he had been labelled suspicious in the growing mind. Therefore, he stretched his hands and picked out Xiao Bao from the playpen. 

"Who are you?" Kaito asked in a terrible baby voice. "Did the bad lady kidnap you?" 

Xiao Bao looked with more contempt at Kaito. His amber eyes were quite similar to Hu Lei's, so their expressions of looking down on people were almost similar. Kaito was most familiar with that look because it reminded him of the young Hu Lei.

"I am your uncle, Kaito. Follow me, and you will rise to the summit." Kaito said happily. 

Akira sat down opposite Hu Lei and looked at Kaito. She smiled as she looked at him, making the worst faces at the baby. The burden in her heart lifted completely. Even though she believed Kaito would be there for her and Little Precious, she was afraid he was forcing himself. 

It would have been different if they discovered her pregnancy together because he would have had time to process the issue and get used to the idea. Finding out his girlfriend was six months pregnant had to be quite shocking. 

However, when she saw him holding Xiao Bao, she realised that she was probably worried for nothing. He was not an ordinary man who would do things carelessly. She needed to trust Kaito and have a more positive mindset. 

"Are you feeling better?" Hu Lei smiled knowingly. 

Akira had been a little listless for the past few days. She looked like a zombie, dragging her feet everywhere with a long face. Now, she looked radiant. Moreover, she had even put a little more effort into her grooming, so she looked like a sweet cute lady. 

"Yeah." Akira smiled with pink cheeks. "Thank you. Thank you for keeping your promise." 

The large eyes looked like those of a cute small animal. Hu Lei felt a little awkward at being looked at with such enthusiasm and adoration. However, she also realised it was not bad to do good things once in a while. Maybe, she should try doing a few more nice things. 

As she told Yuan Haoran, she did believe in karma despite her dark past life. Engaging in more positive activities would be good for her, Zhong Feng and Xiao Bao. Of course, it was a fleeting thought at that moment. 

"What are your plans?" Hu Lei asked. 

Akira looked at Kaito who was still holding Xiao Bao. She felt like her heart was at rest, even though she knew that the troublesome things around them were not over. 

"We are planning to go back to Mountain Ridge. We have some unfinished business." Akira responded. 

"Is it safe to return?" Hu Lei frowned. 

"Most people were probably confident about attacking me because Kaito was gone. Plus, that man from the International Health Alliance is dead. And I already have an idea about the culprit behind the Watch app and the dead pool." Akira said. 

"Alright." Hu Lei nodded. She was a little concerned about Akira because she was not in the best physical condition at the moment. If they encountered danger, she might sustain injuries or even lose the baby. 

However, Hu Lei also knew she needed to believe in Kaito. It was just that after spending a lot of time with Akira, she had grown fond of her. She was a sweet girl. She could not figure out why she fell in love with a rogue like Kaito. 

Hu Lei's critical eyes rested on Kaito, who was still teasing Xiao Bao. 

"What?" Kaito noticed the glance. "Have you finally realised that I am more handsome than Zhong Feng? It is already too late. You cannot compare to my adorable Akira." 

Hu Lei snorted in derision. Where did he get the confidence to compare himself with Zhong Feng? She turned back to Akira. 

"Concerning the matter we talked about, I have reached out to my friend in Russia. He said he will try to lure out the parties behind Watch." Hu Lei said with a small frown. 

Akira felt like she was being a bit of a burden to Hu Lei. She had always believed in her own power. She had countless means and methods to handle normal problems. But when it came to things hidden in the underworld, she was totally clueless. 

"Is it too much trouble?" She asked. 

"Not too much. We have some business dealings through Etude Technologies, and he has a few connections to the dark side." Hu Lei said. "If you want to cut the Watch problem at its root, you have to lure out the culprit properly." 

Akira nodded. If she could get rid of the culprits involved in Watch, she could also cut ties completely with the Immortal Sword Brigade. She had already served her time with the organisation, but they were not willing to drop her from their registers completely. 

If she brought in a big case like this one, she would have enough bargaining power to exit cleanly. Then, she could live her life freely with Kaito and Little Precious. 

"Alright. I will be waiting for good news." She said before standing up. "I am going to order some breakfast. I am craving egg rolls." 

Hu Lei smiled. She did not expose her, but she knew that Akira was leaving so that she and Kaito could talk. She turned to Kaito, who was putting the baby back into the playpen. Then, he occupied the seat left by Akira with a smile.
