The Hu Family's Three Brothers were locked in a spacious iron cage, their expressions initially calm as if they had long since accepted their fate.
However, when Ji Qingwu appeared in the dungeon holding a baby, the three men's expressions changed in an instant. They all rushed to the iron bars, their eyes filled with shock and anxiety.
"The missus gave birth?!" Hu Lie was the first to bellow.
The dungeon echoed with his roar, making one's ears go numb.
Startled by the sudden roar, the baby in Ji Qingwu's arms woke up and began to wail.
"How is Yao Yao? Is she okay? Why isn't she here?" Hu Chen gripped the bars, his eyes bloodshot, looking as if he would burst out of the cage at any moment.
Hu Feng, on the other hand, appeared much calmer.
But upon hearing the baby's fragile and pitiful cries, his lips trembled slightly. In the end, however, he said nothing.
'He knew perfectly well that revealing the importance of a hostage to their captors was undoubtedly a foolish move.'
