Chapter 797 - Wedding Surprise

But they couldn’t.

She had no way of saving the babies. She could only lay helpless as they lost their vital signs. Their struggle became weaker and weaker, and the signs of life she could feel within her faded gradually.

And she could do nothing but cry in despair.

She couldn’t speak.

She was in great pain and she couldn’t even escape.

In the end, she failed to protect them.

That was the last of Mu Xichen’s bloodline.

Mu Xichen’s heart sank deeper as she went on. He tugged at her and whispered, “Stop talking about it.”

Li Beinian choked. “I couldn’t save them. I wasn’t able to save Ah Chen either. I couldn’t save myself. My lover and my family were all gone.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The Chi family had long been cut off by Li Haoran, and Old Master Li was completely unaware of her situation.

In Mu Donglin’s house, she was like a sacrificial lamb waiting to be slaughtered, with no power to resist.

“I said that’s enough.” Mu Xichen wished he could cover her mouth. He whispered, “It’s just a dream. Don’t let your imagination run wild. This will never happen.”

Mu Xichen clenched his fists and his eyes darkened.

Those bastards would never be good enough to play them to that extent!

It looked like the time had come to put the plan on the agenda.

Li Beinian had told this story more than once.

Initially, he had thought that these were nothing more than dreams. He did not expect them to put her at such great unease.

Li Beinian snuggled into his arms as tears flowed down her cheeks. “Our twins.”

Mu Xichen held her in his arms and lowered his head to plant a kiss on her eyes. “They will be okay. We’re going to have a pair of twins – a boy and a girl, okay?”

“I think they will be two boys.” Li Beinian looked up at him. “They will be a pair of identical twins.”

It wasn’t a pair of fraternal twins.

Mu Xichen did not argue further. He agreed with her and whispered, “Don’t let your imagination run wild now. We’ll get married after the New Year. When the time comes, I’ll give you a surprise wedding gift.”

She would only feel at ease if she saw this.

Mu Xichen kissed her hair lightly and said, “Drink some water.”

Li Beinian shook her head and wiped her face. “Regardless of whether this ‘dream’ will play out in reality, I want to get rid of even such a possibility. Ni... Daddy, do you understand?”

The word “daddy” seemed to calm Nico, who was feeling uneasy from her earlier attitude.

He fell silent for a moment before he nodded gravely. “I understand.”

As soon as Nico had said this, he turned to Will and instructed, “Call Charles our lawyer and settle this matter.”

Will had not said anything following Li Beinian’s words. At this point, he only nodded and replied, “Okay.”

Right after this, he picked up his phone, smiled at Li Beinian and said, “Excuse me for a moment.”

He was ever so polite and gentlemanly.

Li Beinian watched as Will turned and left the room. Her gaze shifted to Nico. “Daddy, can he be trusted?”

Nico was stunned and asked, “What do you mean?”

“We suspect that someone close to you may be a traitor,” Li Beinian said bluntly. “How else would the matter of your will be leaked and motivate a collaboration between someone in the Xia Nation and the P.I.T.? Lin Ya is ambitious, so are Mu Donglin and the P.I.T, except, they can’t possibly have access to inside information of the Rothschild family.”
