Chapter 565: The Children Are Yours, I’m Yours Too
Li Beinian was slightly uncomfortable from the pressure and at the same time, felt a little aggrieved by his words.
She gave him a push and said rather coquettishly, “It’s true.”
Speech was difficult and she had turned quite red. She finally said, “I can hardly breathe.”
Mu Xichen’s expression was still clouded over, but he relaxed a little.
Relieved, she looked up at him. Realizing his expression was still gloomy, she mumbled, “Why won’t you believe me? I merely mistook you for someone else.”
“If it’s me, it’s me. How could you make such a mistake? Hmm?” Mu Xichen’s hand slowly slid down her forehead. The displeasure in his eyes was obvious. “In fact, subconsciously, you’re wishing it was him, isn’t that right?”
“Of course not!” Li Beinian retorted. However, she was also quick to realize this and flattered him. “How could he even hold a candle against you!”
Mu Xichen looked down at her, wishing he could devour her. He whispered, “How would you know he couldn’t hold a candle against me?”
She turned slightly red with embarrassment and protested, “I’m didn’t mean in that way!”
“In what way?” Mu Xichen asked even though he knew the answer. He held her chin and spoke in a low voice.
Li Beinian turned even redder and slapped his hand away.
He let go of her, but changed his target. Holding her shoulders, he persisted, “You don’t have an answer?”
Li Beinian was a little annoyed and stared at him angrily. “He’s inferior to you in every way! He’s uglier than you and he’s not as tall as you. He doesn’t know how to dote on a woman and is full of himself. He’s arrogant and thinks that the whole world revolves around him. He’s full of flaws. Who wants him!”
“You know him quite well,” Mu Xichen said casually. It was hard to read his emotions.
She was even more irate now. “You’re annoying, why are you being so sarcastic! If I like him, I won’t be with you!”
Mu Xichen was relieved to hear this.
However, he kept a straight face and said indifferently, “Then why were you calling out his name?”
“Sigh.” Li Beinian didn’t know what to say. “That night, I thought it was him. I got pregnant after that.”
Mu Xichen stared at her and waited for her to continue.
Li Beinian subconsciously stroked her own belly. “Twins. They’re much bigger than a typical pregnant woman’s belly. All along, I had thought that it was him that night.”
“Is that regretful?” Holding her in his embrace, his hands began to wander.
He slipped a hand under her shirt and pinched her naked waist.
She had lost more weight.
Mu Xichen frowned, his hand started to wander upwards.
She tried to stop him, but it didn’t work, hence she let him have his way.
Pondering his question, she sighed and said, “If Mu Donglin had been the children’s father, perhaps the three of us wouldn’t have died so tragically.”
Li Beinian looked at him and said softly, “At that time, something happened to you and I made a cuckold out of him… Actually, if we were to weigh the situation, you didn’t die in vain.”
Mu Xichen’s eyes darkened. He lowered his head and kissed her face, slowly moving along the contour of her jawline to her neck.
Li Beinian naturally responded by tilting her head back and resting her hands on his shoulders.
Her breathing quickened as she continued, “I cannot recall many of the things that had happened back then. Even when I died, I had thought that the children were Mu Donglin’s. But in fact, he had already known then, that I had been with you and they were yours.”
Mu Xichen paused and looked at her intently.
There seemed to be a smile in her eyes, and she also seemed relieved as she whispered, “I’m yours too.”
