Chapter 429 - He’s Livid, Please Come With Me Now (2/2)

Only, she couldn’t bear giving up the two children…

The sun rose higher outside the full-length window.

Noon was the time that the sun blazed the hottest.

Overhead, an airplane bore through the layers of clouds, leaving a long contrail behind.

Li Beinian squinted. She finally looked away and reached out to pick at the tin foil.

Suddenly, she heard a commotion.

Her head spun around. From outside the cafe came the neat drumming of footsteps.

It felt like a violation to hear such a sound, in such a place.

Her eyes were fixed in the direction of the sound. And the moment they fell on the first person that came into view, her heart missed a beat.

Gu Mingye was in military green camouflage, his muscled and tanned body held ramrod straight.

With a rarely seen serious expression, he walked up to speak with the service staff at the entrance.

Li Beinian’s heart was now pounding madly as she subconsciously held her breath. She stood up immediately and strode across to the restroom.

Just as she slipped in, Gu Mingye called out in a raised voice, “Miss Li, I know you’re in there.”

Her heart almost jumped into her throat as she stood on the spot, her breathing quickening.

“He’s livid, please come with me now.”

She couldn’t help but conjure the mental image of a livid Mu Xichen. Her muscles tightened as she felt her heart rate rising again.

Hehe, it would have been a miracle if he didn’t get angry after being dumped by a woman who bedded him.

There was no doubt in her mind.

She adjusted her sunglasses and immediately took out her mask. She put it on and gave herself a quick look in the mirror. Then, she bunned her hair so that Gu Mingye wouldn’t recognize her.

Taking a moment to calm herself, Li Beinian hung her handbag on her arm and walked out of the restroom steadily.

She held her posture straight as she headed towards the cafe exit with great composure.

Just as she was about to step out of the cafe, she saw that Gu Mingye had gone up to where she was sitting earlier on. He picked up the emergency contraceptive pill that she had removed from the tin foil but hadn’t had the chance to down.
