Dominating the Powerful Families: Rebirth of Chapter 5: The Daughter is Too Bewitching_1

Absolutely not!
She had no plans to overlook it; instead, she intended to fully purge this vicious Yin energy.
Shen Tianxing wondered who lurked behind the Yin energy concealed within the home, who dared to scheme like this?
Shen Tianxing at last understood the reason—despite their healthy bodies, she and her husband struggled to have a child. It stemmed from this Yin energy stirring trouble, disrupting their well-being and destiny.
If someone had planted it on purpose, that culprit harbored truly wicked motives, seeking to cut off Shen Wenru and Li Xiuxia's lineage and doom them to childlessness!
Who could hold such intense grudge against them?
To survey her environment, Shen Tianxing could only thrash her limbs like an infant and wail piercingly, kicking up a fuss.
She expected a mighty bellow, yet her cry emerged as a delicate "meow meow meow," soft and endearing to hear.
Li Xiuxia's heart softened at her daughter's kittenish mews, "Aiyo, my precious one is stirring, hush now, hush, Mama's here to nurse you..."
Li Xiuxia figured the baby was hungry or wet, so she laid her swiftly on the bed and, just as Shen Tianxing desired, lifted the covering blanket, revealing the tiny face.
Spotting Li Xiuxia's warm, loving expression and maternal glow, Shen Tianxing ceased her cries and beamed a pure, babyish smile back at her.
Li Xiuxia's soul nearly dissolved at the child's enchanting grin, eyes forming joyful moons.
Her features brimmed with affection as she cooed to Little Tianxing, "My sweet baby, what's got you grinning so? Share with Mama, hmm?"
Shen Tianxing babbled "oh oh oh" like a newborn, flailing her small fists, flashing her gummy smile and melting Li Xiuxia with cuteness.
Li Xiuxia's maternal instincts surged; she bubbled with laughter, utterly captivated.
Shen Wenru, fresh from freshening up, caught his wife's delighted chuckles from afar and hurried inside, inquiring, "What's so funny?"
Li Xiuxia beamed proudly at Shen Wenru, "Wenru, listen to this—our little gem is brilliant already. So tiny, but she's babbling and smiling; what a genius!"
Hearing that, Shen Wenru itched to dote on Little Tianxing too.
He bent near Little Tianxing, prodded her plump cheek with a finger, and grinned, "Sweetie, this is Daddy. Know Daddy yet?"
Shen Tianxing babbled "oh oh" twice and unleashed her classic gummy beam, eyes crescent-shaped, utterly enchanting father Shen Wenru to the core.
"Aiyo, my darling treasure, you get Daddy's words, right?"
Shen Tianxing babbled "oh oh" again.
Shen Wenru and Li Xiuxia gaped in shock. Their newborn had barely exited the womb; how did she grasp their speech? Was she truly special?
Suddenly, Nurse Ma's words about the "third eye" echoed, stirring doubt in their hearts.
Though Shen Tianxing lacked Spiritual Power now, her Divine Sense remained potent, letting her detect Shen Wenru and Li Xiuxia's surprise and unease.
Shen Tianxing felt reassured—no trace of terror or rejection came from her parents.
True enough, Li Xiuxia voiced her concern right away, "Wenru, what if our girl truly stands apart from other kids?"
A fierce spark flashed in Shen Wenru's gaze as he caressed Little Tianxing's cheek tenderly, murmuring, "From today, one of us stays with Little Tianxing always. Someone must guard her nonstop, ensuring she never slips up and exposes herself."
Li Xiuxia bobbed her head vigorously, "Yes, yes, exactly. We'll bring the baby everywhere we go from now on."
Shen Wenru murmured assent, adding, "Should she act too oddly, we guide her right away. She's too young and defenseless now—no flaunting talents before outsiders."
Li Xiuxia nodded solemnly, "Got it, I'll handle that."
She gazed down at innocent Little Tianxing, batting huge eyes with flawless purity, and joy bubbled up once more.
Softly, she told Little Tianxing, "My little love, Daddy and Mommy adore you endlessly and will shield you perfectly. Grow big fast, alright?"
Shen Tianxing flashed another broad grin...
Suddenly, urgent knocks rang out—"bang bang bang" on the door.
A crisp youthful voice shouted from beyond, "Uncle, Auntie, Mom and Dad sent me to fetch you for dinner—come quick!"
This teen was Shen Wenru's older brother's firstborn, nephew Shen Tianrui.
Shen Tianrui, fifteen this year, aced third-year junior high and geared up for Suzhou's top high school exam.
At Shen Tianrui's summons, Shen Wenru dashed out, flung open the door, "Xiaorui, hold on—we're coming shortly."
Li Xiuxia stepped forward, telling Shen Wenru, "Wenru, Little Tianxing's too young, and it's late and chilly out. I'll stay back and mind her. You eat alone!"
Shen Wenru agreed it was wise; their treasure showed uncanny vigor and smarts, yet as a newborn, she required utmost care.
With that, Shen Wenru instructed Li Xiuxia, "Fine, stay put and grab a bite if you can; I'll fetch food from brother's later for you."
The siblings and in-laws bonded tightly, often aiding one another.
Without Li Xiuxia joining dinner, Shen Wenru knew sister-in-law Ma Hongying would pack plenty to send over anyway.
The Shen Family got along seamlessly, stayed sharp-minded, and mastered living well.
Li Xiuxia shut the front door after Shen Wenru and Shen Tianrui departed.
Back in the room, she saw her daughter had dozed off once more.
Shen Tianxing sensed this baby form tired swiftly; barely any playtime, and sleepiness struck again.
She surrendered to the sleepiness, figuring rest now meant action later upon midnight awakening.
