Chapter 946: Finale (18)
In his dream, he found himself in an extremely strange world.
In this world, he was like a god, floating in the sky and looking down at the world below.
He saw a dilapidated building below. The abandoned equipment and machines were covered in a thick layer of dust.
The sky gradually darkened and the setting sun had dyed the horizon red.
Mu Xichen heard the woman’s angry voice.
It was as if she wanted to scream in agony, but no words came, resulting in a frustrated howl.
Mu Xichen looked in the direction of the voice and suddenly shuddered. He observed the scene before him in disbelief.
A burly man was standing in front of a woman.
Her hair was a mess and there were bloodstains, footprints, and palm prints on her snow-white face. It was particularly striking!
What was even more attention-catching was her abnormally large belly. Mu Xichen had never seen such a huge belly before. It was even bigger than the bellies of other women he had seen carrying twins.
She was obviously pregnant!
The pregnant woman was dressed in light-colored clothes. The lower half of her body was stained with blood. She was clinging onto the man’s trousers and looking up at the phone in his hand with difficulty.
Although she looked pathetic and pale, her features were unmistakably delicate. Her mouth was wide open, and Mu Xichen saw with his own eyes that there was nothing in it!
There wasn’t even a tongue in it!
Mu Xichen felt as if his heart had been struck by a mighty blow. The pain was enough to shatter a tough man!
A woman’s voice could be heard coming from the phone.
That voice was gentle, airy, and smug.
Compared to Li Beinian’s inability to speak, this cheerful and crisp voice carried the smugness of someone who had emerged the victor.
Mu Xichen was enraged when he heard that voice.
In the video call, Lin Kerou said, “Brother Donglin didn’t touch you because he loved me. However, I didn’t expect you to be so desperate that you cheated on him and got pregnant…”
Mu Xichen clenched his fists.
Li Beinian?
An affair?
Bullshit!
She loved the man so much that even before she got pregnant, she was busy as a spinning top. She had no reason nor time to cheat on him!
Wait… what was Lin Kerou saying?
Mu Donglin didn’t touch her because he loved Lin Kerou?
Only then did Mu Xichen realize that something was wrong.
He quickly walked over to Li Beinian and squatted down beside her. Looking at her ballooning belly, he felt as if his heart was being squeezed.
Blood was gradually draining from her face. The dark circles under her eyes made her look like a panda. She opened her tongueless mouth and burst into tears.
Her tears streaked across the bloody marks and landed on her bruised palm. It was especially obvious against her snow-white skin.
In the video, Lin Kerou looked pained. “You claim to love Brother Donglin. Is this how you love him?”
Mu Xichen’s heart ached when he saw his wife shaking her head frantically at her phone.
He reached out to hold her shoulder, but his hand passed through it.
He couldn’t make contact with her at all.
Lin Kerou chuckled again. “Oh, right. I forgot that you can’t speak anymore. It was a wise decision to keep you silent.”
Li Beinian froze and widened her eyes in disbelief.
Mu Xichen’s sharp gaze swept over the room.
Both people, including the burly man, did not notice his presence.
“Will it make Mu Xichen very happy to find out that you’re carrying his bloodline?” Lin Kerou’s voice was full of smugness as she laughed coquettishly. Then, she put on a look of pity and said regretfully, “It’s just the child of a criminal on death row. What’s the point of keeping it?”
Criminal on death row?
Mu Xichen’s body stiffened. He subconsciously recalled what Li Beinian had said about the dream she had.
She said that in her dream, she was married to Mu Donglin.
She said that in her dream, he was a criminal on death row, that he committed crimes and eventually was executed…
Could this place be her dream?
Mu Xichen had a strange thought.
Ah Nian’s dream was like a dead knot that haunted her.
So, could this be a God-given chance for him to release her from it?
As this thought ran through his mind, he suddenly heard Lin Kerou say, “Uh… I’ll have to go. Brother Donglin is waiting for me to eat with him. Goodbye, Nian Nian.”
The burly man hollered angrily, “Didn’t you say that Mu Donglin was in a meeting!”
However, the line had already gone dead.
Mu Xichen saw how the burly man was getting more and more agitated, till he finally smashed his cell phone.
He immediately could tell what the thug was about to do next and reflexively waved his hand.
If he were present in person, Mu Xichen would have easily flipped the man over and he wouldn’t have been able to even get close to Li Beinian.
However, this precious person that he would usually treat like treasure, now let out a loud and agonizing scream as the man’s foot came down on her huge belly.
Mu Xichen’s face turned ashen in fright. He wanted to stop this, but he could only watch as this damned fellow trampled on his child and his wife with a sinister expression and cursed her with the most vicious words.
The burly man shouted, “Damn it, this adulterous couple had never planned to come and rescue you! F*ck, you actually had an affair with your own brother-in-law. You too, are a f*cking b*tch. Ha, I won’t kill you. Stay here and find your own ending!”
As he spoke, his foot continued to exert force on her.
Mu Xichen could clearly see blood spurting out at intervals!
Every cell in his body stung and his nerves felt as though they were on the verge of exploding.
His woman, the woman he loved more than anything in the world, was being bullied and insulted by a lowlife that he himself wouldn’t have taken a second look at!
And he… could do nothing about it.
He couldn’t touch him, not even a bit.
Mu Xichen had never felt so helpless.
Seeing Li Beinian writhing on the ground in pain, he couldn’t help but shudder uncontrollably.
I’m sorry, I’m sorry…
Li Beinian, who was lying on the ground, did not notice that the children’s father was beside her.
She looked at the man’s back view as he walked away, and screamed in hatred and despair.
She reached out her bloody hand only to scratch at the air, she could only raise it weakly and then let it fall weakly.
Until the sky turned dark, no help came.
Mu Xichen looked at the imprints of the little hands and feet on her belly as she struggled. Li Beinian’s writhing and cries became softer and weaker…
Three days later, her body was discovered.
She had three babies in her belly.
Two placentas, a pair of boys and a girl.
