Peter Pan froze momentarily before he widened his eyes in disbelief. He had not come across a man who was as shameless as Jiang Ning.

The man had been hesitating over whether he should allow Peter Pan to take his daughter as his disciple a moment ago. Yet here he was, demanding a gift for his daughter now!

Such shamelessness!

"There's none?" Jiang Ning tilted his head as he took his daughter back into his arms. He shook his head. "Well, forget it then. I can't let someone who can't even afford a gift to be my daughter's master. I don't want her to suffer in the future."

Peter Pan flushed instantly.

He didn't care what other people said of him, but he wasn't going to stand by and do nothing when someone accused him of being unable to afford a gift for his disciple!Original content from .

Those old fellows would die laughing if

they knew.

He searched his pockets and flushed when he found nothing. The look that Jiang Ning gave him turned him redder. He huffed.

"It's just a gift, isn't it? I'm her master, of course I have a gift for her!"

He clenched his jaw before he loosened his robes and undid a necklace around his neck. Its pendant resembled the tooth of an animal.

"This is for my disciple!"

Peter Pan threw the necklace at Jiang Ning casually and pretended that he didn't care much for it. But Jiang Ning could see the reluctance in his eyes.

Jiang Ning caught the necklace. He could feel heat emanating from the tooth as soon as his fingers brushed against it. The ancient aura exuding from the pendant told Jiang Ning that this wasn't any ordinary gift.

"I was joking." Jiang Ning tried to hand the necklace back to Peter Pan. "This is too precious a gift. I'm happy that you're willing to take my daughter as your disciple and glad that there's one more person who will love and protect her. That alone is enough."

"Are you looking down on me?" Jiang Ning didn't expect Peter Pan to frown. "I'm not going to take back something that I've given to someone as a gift! I have no use for this anymore. Let your daughter have it. It'll protect her!"

Before Jiang Ning could say another word, Peter Pan scoffed.

"I'm going to die sooner or later. There's no point in me having this. Give it to my disciple. We are bound together by fate. She's the perfect owner for it."

Jiang Ning remained still. Peter Pan grabbed the necklace and put it on the baby. Then, he stared hard at the kid and smiled.

"This is fun. She's going to be a strange one when she grows up!"

"Thank you."

Jiang Ning could tell from the look in Peter Pan's eyes that he truly liked the baby.

After some time, the doctor wheeled Lin Yuzhen out of the ward.

"We're done, Mr Jiang. Everything went without a hitch."

"Thanks for your hard work," said Jiang Ning. "Yuming, make sure the doctors get their rest."

"Yes, sir." Huang Yuming nodded and walked up to the doctors. "Thanks for your hard work. Please follow me."

"We've made the necessary arrangements to our schedule. You can call us whenever you need us."

She had just delivered Jiang Ning's baby daughter, the princess of Donghai!

about it.

Jiang Ning walked up to Lin Yuzhen. His heart ached when he saw how exhausted she looked.

He clasped her hand tightly.

"It's over. Rest well. You'll recover in no time."

"Okay."

Lin Yuzhen smiled, then slowly shut her eyes.

The entire Lin family was filled with joy as they welcomed the latest member to their midst.

Ye Qingwu and the others hurried to Donghai so that they could catch a glimpse of the adorable baby.

The empty rooms in the mansion were filled with their gifts.

"Why is she always sleeping?" whispered Ye Qingwu.

"That's newborn babies for you.

They sleep around twenty hours et day. She only wakes up net

she's hungry and wants milk."

"Milk? Does she drink it on her own?"

The nursemaid was amused by the young woman's questions. "You'll know when you have your own kid."

Their voices were hushed whispers

as they watched Lin Yuzhen and the

baby from afar. The mother and child were oblivious to their conversation as they slept
