Chapter 948: Finale (End of Main Text)

His wife’s delivery was due next month, so Mu Xichen had gone out to settle some matters.

Lin Ya had been locked up for more than half a year now and was still in police custody with the lawsuit ongoing.

It had to be said that Lin Ya’s reputation was really impressive. Many people had stepped up to vouch for him and no one deliberately targeted him. If it weren’t for the fact that there were too many charges and too much evidence against him, he might have already been released.

Besides, what Lin Ya had done this time not only violated the law, but also involved the Rothschild family’s internal affairs.

Nico naturally added fuel to the fire.

Hence, Mu Xichen did not bother with it too much.

Now, he was busy with something else.

Ever since he had that dream, Mu Xichen had got T Jing investigating the culprit behind Li Beinian’s death.

Because this suspect didn’t have a fixed job and wasn’t a high-profiled person, he was rather difficult to track down.

Finally, after more than half a year, there was another piece of information about him from the police—robbery.

This person was tall, strong, and aggressive. However it seemed that although he had enough brute force, he lacked half the intelligence.

He got by through lying, cheating, and stealing, had no proper work and idled his days away.

After this particular robbery, the girl who was robbed had made a police report and the case was transferred to the local police station.

Following that, it was passed on to Guang City. That person kicked up a big fuss, claiming that he did not commit any crime and was just borrowing some money to spend.

After being shoved into a small dark room, someone finally removed the hood over his head.

It was so dark inside the room that one couldn’t see one’s own hand.

Suddenly, a blinding light flashed on.

The burly man squinted as he looked up and ahead.

In front and to the left, there were men dressed in black. Each of them was thickly built and held a steel pipe. They smiled at him politely yet menacingly.

The burly man was a little nervous and took a step back in panic. “What… what are you trying to do?”

But no one answered.

They kept silent all throughout, but they were all ruthless as hell!

In the end, the burly man couldn’t move an inch after being beaten up by these people. He twitched and spat out blood, rolled his eyes and asked indignantly, “What… did I do… to offend… you…”

One of them laughed and said ambiguously, “You’re plain unlucky.”

The man was obviously unconvinced by this answer. He spat out another mouthful of blood before he passed out.

T Jing looked at the report and clicked his tongue. “Three broken ribs, fractured calf, and a 3 cm fracture on the shoulder… Boss, what did the guy do to offend you? You’re not the type who would find trouble over nothing!”

Mu Xichen looked at the man’s pitiful state in the video and said unhurriedly, “Send him off to the hospital and give him an amount double the cost of his medical bills.”

T Jing asked, “What about psychological damage?”

“Not paying for that.”

“Roger!”

After watching the video of him being beaten up, Mu Xichen was finally appeased.

Following his instruction to T Jing, he received a call.

Tang Xiaoge shouted anxiously into the phone, “Xichen, come back quickly. Our Beinian is about to give birth!”

“What?” Mu Xichen couldn’t believe what he was hearing. “Isn’t that supposed to happen only next month?”

At once, the man realized: premature labor!

In the confusion, his mind buzzed as he rushed out.

T Jing hurriedly followed after him, shouting, “Boss, are you able to drive in this state? It’s very dangerous. Let me drive you!”

When he arrived at the hospital, there were already many people gathered outside the delivery room.

Old Master Li was talking to Tang Xiaoge with a worried expression on his age-worn face.

Chi Dali and Chi Hailang were sitting on the chairs, looking both worried and happy. When Mu Xichen approached, everyone looked towards him.

He asked, “What’s happening? Where’s my wife?”

“She’s in there!” Chi Hailang was a little anxious. “What’s wrong with this hospital? They’ve been talking about twins. And now that she’s about to give birth, they’re suddenly telling us there are three babies. This is too unreliable!”

Mu Xichen was stunned for a moment before he beamed. “Triplets?”

“That’s right!” Chi Hailang stomped his feet angrily when he saw how happy Mu Xichen was. “What’s with your expression? My sister has such a big belly and has always thought that she was carrying twins. Now that there’s suddenly one more, what will that do in terms of the babies’ nutrition?”

Tang Xiaoge was also upset. “Yes, I thought it was two and it was a good thing that she had such a big belly. It meant that the babies were very healthy. Now that there are three of them, and she’s gone into labor, I wonder how developed the babies are…”

Having premature twins was risky enough, let alone triplets!

At that reminder, Mu Xichen started to look worried as well.

He clasped his hands together and paced back and forth in front of the delivery room.

Several times, he had wanted to enter, but was stopped.

The normally tough man punched the wall so hard in a fit of anger after being stopped by the nurse, that she got a fright and didn’t dare to look at him again.

Mu Xichen waited for more than an hour before there was a commotion.

The nurse came out and said, “Congratulations, both mother and babies have pulled through safely. There are two young masters and a little princess. The eldest brother weighs 4.3 kilograms. The one in the middle is also a boy and the smallest of three babies, only 3.5 kilograms. The little princess is 3.7 kilograms. The premature babies still need to be observed. They have been sent to the incubator…”

“Where’s my wife?” Mu Xichen interrupted her. “How is she? Can I visit her?”

The nurse said, “The mother has worked very hard at delivering the babies and needs to rest now. She’s asleep. Family members, please proceed to settle the fees.”

The three babies were kept in the hospital for observation. Fortunately, apart from some congenital deficiencies, they were considered healthy overall.

Having given birth to three children at once, no matter how good Li Beinian’s health was, she was inevitably a little weak now.

When she woke up and saw Mu Xichen, the first thing she said was: I don’t want to give birth ever again.

Mu Xichen held her hands tenderly and whispered, “Okay.”

Li Beinian closed her eyes and fell asleep.

At this time, she naively thought that having given birth, the most difficult stage had passed.

Unexpectedly, there were tough times ahead!

A woman in confinement is to avoid the wind, the cold and watch her diet.

Because she had to breastfeed, Li Beinian had to eat plain food.

This was tolerable.

What she couldn’t tolerate was… Oh! The! Boredom!

Less than half a month into confinement, Li Beinian felt as though her entire body was growing mold. It was during this time that an idea struck her. She wrote a bunch of little notes, crumpled each into a tiny ball and told Mu Xichen to pick from among them.

Mu Xichen asked suspiciously, “What am I picking?”

“Just pick!” Li Beinian smiled. “Pick any three!”

The man complied and dug around the box before he randomly picked a little crumpled ball.

The handwriting was clear and beautiful, and it read: Cat.

“Cat?”

“Wow!” Li Beinian nodded. “That’s good. Our daughter’s nickname will be Little Cat!”

Mu Xichen looked at her strangely. “A nickname?”

Li Beinian pushed his hand again and urged him on. “Pick another one.”

“What if I pick a slip that says dog?” Mu Xichen was a little reluctant. He looked at the box with the tiny crumpled balls of paper and said, “They’re your children too. Think about it carefully.”

Li Beinian laughed and said smugly, “What’s the big deal? Wasn’t this common during ancient times? Big Dog, Two Dog, Old Dog and all… These names were common!”

For the first time, Mu Xichen was this resolute and said adamantly, “I’m not picking.”

“What are you picking?” Chi Hailang walked in and saw the couple talking to each other.

Li Beinian was smiling cheekily while Mu Xichen seemed a little annoyed.

When Li Beinian saw Chi Hailang, she waved at him enthusiastically and said, “Come on, come on. You can pick one too.”

“What’s this?”

“Don’t touch it.” Mu Xichen slapped his hand away. “You’re not to pick.”

“No!” Li Beinian was very determined. “You have to pick. Don’t worry, I didn’t include a dog among them. I didn’t include anything that sound horrid!”

Mu Xichen didn’t quite believe her. “Really?”

Li Beinian’s eyes wandered. “Probably.”

Mu Xichen fell silent.

Chi Hailang did not know what was going on, so he reached in, grabbed a tiny crumpled ball and opened it up. “Eh? What do you mean by bamboo?”

“Bamboo! It means to thrive and grow!” Li Beinian took the note. “This is good, this is good. Well give this nickname to our Number Two. Number Two will be called Bamboo from now on. He’s the smallest and will definitely grow very quickly!”

Then, Li Beinian drew one herself and smiled when she saw the words on it. “Look, I casually drew a small sun!”

“Little Sunshine?” Mu Xichen finally looked more cheerful. “This is not bad.”

“Isn’t Bamboo any good?”

“It’s alright.” At least it means something good. “But not Cat.”

“Why not? It’s so cute!” Li Beinian was indignant.

“It’s just not good.” Mu Xichen casually picked another one, unfolded it, and nodded. “This is not bad.”

Li Beinian looked at it and said angrily, “No way! Isn’t she your daughter too? How dare you name your daughter after a bear?”

“Healthy as a bear!”

“Cat is cute!”

Having listened to all of this, Chi Hailang said weakly, “Why don’t we compromise, how about panda?” [The Chinese character “Bear” followed by “Cat” is the Chinese term for Panda]

Li Beinian was stumped.

Mu Xichen fell silent.

The atmosphere became most awkward.

Chi Hailang quickly tried to smooth things over and asked, “Brother-in-law, just go along with the children’s nicknames. The more important matter is their proper names. Have you thought of names for them?” Then, Chi Hailang added, “Not only do their official names have to be nice, they also need to match their birth characters and energy. These names will last for their lifetimes!”

Mu Xichen nodded proudly and said, “Yes, I’ve already hired someone to calculate these, and I’ve chosen three.”

Li Beinian yawned. “Which three?”

Mu Xichen took out the note. On it was written in beautiful handwriting: Mu Nanzhou, Mu Nanxiao, Mu Nanyao.”

When the evening clouds come together, it is like a boat sailing freely.

Yes, they were good names.
