Hidden Marriage 99 Days: Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 939 - Finale (11)



Chapter 939: Finale (11)

Li Beinian’s body was sore from sleeping and she really did not want to move.

Besides, she didn’t have much to do with Lin Kerou in the past. Mu Donglin had just died. Why would Lin Kerou ask to meet now?

She yawned and buried her face in the pillow. In a muffled voice, she asked, “What’s the matter?”

Lin Kerou heard her sleepy voice and subconsciously looked at herself in the mirror.

She had not had a good rest for five to six days in a row, making her look even more haggard and frail. From time to time, her abdomen would feel uncomfortable.

However, no one seemed to care about her now.

She had provided evidence and reported Lin Ya. Now, her own family hated her to the core.

The Lin parents cursed her every day, wishing that she would die soon. They wished it was her suffering in the detention centre instead of Lin Ya.

In this family, Lin Yuxin was the only one sandwiched between and she was the one bringing her food, taking her to the hospital, talking to her, and comforting her.

Her in-laws were busy with Mu Donglin’s funeral and did not have the energy to care about her.

At this point, Lin Kerou’s face was sallow and she was skinny. The dark circles under her eyes made her look like a panda.

The woman on the other end of the line was obviously not yet fully awake. Her voice was soft and she sounded like she had no cares in the world, as though Mu Donglin’s death had no impact on her at all.

Lin Kerou felt a little choked. She smiled a crooked smile, as if mocking the haggard young woman in the rear view mirror.

She heard herself say, “Something’s up. Are you in your room?”

Li Beinian yawned again. “What’s the matter?”

Lin Kerou said, “Come to the window.”

Li Beinian was stunned for a moment. “What?”

Then, she tugged at her pajamas and ran her fingers through her messy hair as she looked out of the full-length window.

Below, a white car was parked in the garden and its headlights flashed twice.

Li Beinian saw a figure getting out of the car.

Wearing a long white dress with long sleeves, her hair fell over her shoulders and she looked elegant and gentle.

She held her phone in one hand and looked up after getting out of the car.

Without a doubt, it was Lin Kerou.

Lin Kerou stood beside the car and seemed to be smiling as she looked up at her, saying, “Did you know that Mu Donglin is dead? Before he died, all that occupied his mind was getting a divorce.”

Li Beinian combed her hair with her fingers and looked at the figure suspiciously.

It was noon and the sun was shining brightly.

The blazing golden light fell on her and seemed to bathe her body in a halo.

From this lighting and angle, Li Beinian could clearly see the haggardness and paleness of the girl’s face.

Those dark circles made her look like a vengeful ghost.

She smiled sarcastically and asked, “Do you know why?”

Li Beinian did not speak.

“He said that he didn’t wish to hold me back, and hoped that after the divorce, I’d find a better man and get on with life.” Lin Kerou lowered her head slightly and sneered. “But I know that he just doesn’t want me to occupy the position of his wife. He still wanted you, you know?”

“Ridiculous. I’ve had nothing to do with him for a long time now.” Li Beinian sounded slightly annoyed. “So you came to me today just to say this?”

The sun was getting hotter.

Lin Kerou raised her head slightly and her eyes glistened.

She stared at Li Beinian without blinking.

Li Beinian only felt awkward and saw no point in this. She frowned and said, “If there’s nothing else, just leave. That place doesn’t allow parking. It’ll look bad if you got chased out.”

Lin Kerou smiled. “Li Beinian.”

Under the sunlight, Li Beinian saw a silvery streak of tears on her face.

Lin Kerou said, “You’re only mediocre. I can’t accept losing to you.”

Lin Kerou left quickly.

Li Beinian found the incident very odd, but thought nothing more of it.

However, after this incident, she was no longer sleepy.

After she had washed up, Mu Xichen returned.

When he noticed her pale face, he frowned and asked, “Are you feeling unwell?”

“No.” Li Beinian opened the closet and changed out of her clothes. “Why are you back? Aren’t you busy at work?”

“Uh huh.” Mu Xichen patted her head gently and said, “Dad and Mom are waiting for us to go over for lunch. I’m back to pick you up.”

“Ah, have they started eating?” Li Beinian did up the hook on her underwear and turned to look at him. She realized that he looked especially gloomy today and immediately asked, “What’s wrong? What happened?”

Mu Xichen pondered for a moment and said, “Lin Kerou provided a new piece of evidence. It’s a recording pen that was handed to Li Meng. It’s will be very difficult for Lin Ya to make a comeback now.”

“Then why do you have this expression?” Li Beinian walked over and held his face in her hands. “Lin Ya has fallen. Aren’t you happy?”

Mu Xichen gently placed his hand on the back of her hand and said hesitantly, “I heard the recording. Something’s wrong with Lin Kerou.”

Li Beinian suddenly thought of Lin Kerou’s expression earlier on and nodded. “Yes, something’s wrong with her. She came by just a while ago.”

Li Beinian briefly explained the situation and suddenly thought of something. “Do you think she might do something silly?”

However, on second thoughts, she didn’t think so. “But she’s pregnant. Now that Mu Donglin is dead, no matter what, she will keep Mu Donglin’s child and get on with life, right?”

After all, she loved Mu Donglin so much – in her previous life and in this life. Li Beinian had never doubted Lin Kerou’s love at all.

Hearing Li Beinian’s words, Mu Xichen frowned even more and picked up his phone.

Li Beinian saw him dialing Gu Mingye’s number.

The call was quickly connected. Mu Xichen spoke concisely, “Keep an eye on Lin Kerou. Don’t let her do anything fatal.”

Gu Mingye was stunned. “Are you worried that she will commit suicide?”

“No matter what,” Mu Xichen sighed and said in a sorrowful voice, “try your best to protect the child in her womb.”

After all, that was the last of Mu Donglin’s bloodline.

Protecting them was his last act of kindness towards Mu Donglin.

Taken aback, Li Beinian reached out to put her arms around the man.

Muzzling her face against his neck, Lin Kerou’s image appeared in her mind again.

The aura of death was bleak.

“Let’s go and look for her.”

From Qing Shui Fu to the Mu Family Mansion, they had to pass through a business district.

Sheng An’s company base was on that street.

Besides Sheng An, there was also a branch company of the Mu Corporation.

The street was very wide, but now it was completely choked.

Li Beinian sat in the car trying to call Lin Kerou. However, no one answered no matter how many times she called.

The road in front of them was completely jammed.

After a while, Li Beinian couldn’t bear it anymore and got out of the car to take a look. Only then did she realize that there was a crowd and the people were pointing at a building in front of her.

The wind was strong today.

Li Beinian narrowed her eyes and could only see a white figure against the light.

The sun was too bright and it hurt her eyes.

Li Beinian pulled someone aside and asked, “What going on here?”

“Someone’s trying to jump off the building. There’s a traffic jam ahead. We can’t get through!”

This was a major traffic junction, and with the crowd jamming up the place as well, many people were complaining loudly.

Li Beinian had an ominous feeling.

She looked up again and dialed Lin Kerou’s number.

Again, it went unanswered.

The wind was really strong today.

Lin Kerou stood on the edge of the top floor, her body swaying.

She looked down at the commotion she had created and couldn’t help laughing.

How long had it been since she was the center of anyone’s attention?

All these years, she had lived for someone else.

Everyone, including Mu Donglin, thought that she would live on bravely for him and for her child.

But, she was exhausted.

It had been too long since she did something that she felt like doing.

Now, she would let the world know that the position of Mrs. Mu Donglin would always be hers.

Behind her, a group of policemen had broken in.

Lin Kerou looked at them and smiled.

However, the smile seemed to be laced with bitterness, but also relief at the prospect of breaking free.

The wind grew stronger.

She opened her arms as her frail body fell freely from the 68th floor.

The people behind her did not even manage to touch the corner of her dress as they watched her being blown away by the wind.

Lin Kerou was in white and smiling as she looked at the skies above her.

Mu Donglin seemed to be looking at her from above.

Tears of grief welled up in her eyes the moment she landed.

She loved him so much and he had hurt her so deeply.

She wouldn’t leave anything behind for him.

That person would never know that she died for him.

Mu Donglin, I’m coming to you.
