Chapter 429 - He’s Livid, Please Come With Me Now (1/2)
Guang City, one of Xia Nation’s Tier 1 cities.
Unending traffic, a sea of people.
Skyscrapers rose overhead, luxurious and stylish.
The Light Tower, as one of the city’s most representative landmarks, stood graceful and tall as it reached out towards the clouds.
Li Beinian sat elegantly in the revolving cafe at the top of the building, looking down into the city.
The golden rays of the sun illuminated the land like a thin veil that enshrouded the earth and blue skies as one. The atmosphere was leisurely and pleasing.
Unhurriedly, she picked up her cup of coffee and took a sip. The bitter acidity enveloped the tip of her tongue and released its aroma. As the liquid slid down her throat, it returned with a pleasant sweetness.
Although her body was still sore and aching from the indulgent acts of the night before, her mood was surprisingly calm and peaceful.
She reached into her handbag and drew out a tiny pillbox. Levonorgestrel. An emergency contraceptive to be taken within 72 hours.
She had taken her medicine yesterday, and its effects came so fast and furious that she didn’t even have the chance to use the condoms that she had prepared.
Hence, Mu Xichen had taken no precautionary measures at all.
In her previous life, she had gotten pregnant the first time she did it with him.
Twins.
And at one time, she had thought that the babies belonged to Mu Donglin.
Back then, she was greatly enamored with Mu Donglin and had great anticipation for the children.
Even though now she knew that the pregnancy back then had nothing to do with him, her love for him was real.
She wanted the two babies.
Alas, she knew that if she were to repeat history and brought the babies into this world… there was no way she would be able to give them a proper family.
She and Mu Xichen… they were merely making use of each other.
Whether in this life or the previous one… she couldn’t be sure if he really did love her or even liked her.
She couldn’t be sure if she’d be able to keep enough of a sound and stable mind being with such a man, to bring the two babies into this world.
Her logic told her to forget that possibility.
