Chapter 843: Don’t Overthink Things, Go To Sleep

However, knowing that Mu Xichen and Mu Che were not on good terms, Li Beinian was skeptical.

She fixed her gaze on Mu Xichen, studying his expression, but the man did not reveal anything more.

It was as if his words were true.

Li Beinian had already seen his ability to lie through his teeth. Hence, his serious expression did nothing to allay her suspicion.

She thought a little harder about it – Mu Che was, indeed, not in good health.

However, he was not quite at death’s bed at this point.

Taking reference from her previous life’s trajectory, he should have another two years to go.

However, many things seemed significantly different in this life. Li Beinian couldn’t guarantee that Mu Che would be able to change his own fate.

Although she was still suspicious, Li Beinian went along with Mu Xichen’s account and said, “In that case, I think we should make a trip back. He doesn’t usually call us. He’s been calling us repeatedly these recent days. Even Mu Donglin has personally called us. I think this might be true.”

As she spoke, she took note of Mu Xichen’s expression.

At this point, Mu Xichen looked calm and expressionless.

Li Beinian paused and continued, “No matter how he had treated you in the past,you’re still his son. If he is really on death’s bed… I only fear you’ll end up with regrets.”

Although Mu Donglin had called her and spoken a lot of nonsense, there was one thing he said that was true:

It wasn’t as though Mu Xichen had completely no feelings for Mu Che.

At least, he wasn’t as heartless as he made himself out to be.

This was a good thing. If a person could have completely no feelings for his biological father, that would be a real problem.

No matter how tough Mu Xichen seemed on the outside, he had a very gentle heart.

Li Beinian felt a sense of pride.

Mu Xichen, on the other hand, had no idea of all these things she was imagining. However, seeing that Li Beinian was no longer bothered about where he had been that night, he was secretly relieved.

He pretended to be deep in thought. Then looking somewhat reluctant but helpless, he relented. “In that case, let’s go to the Mu Family Mansion tomorrow.”

Li Beinian nodded and looked at him. Her amber eyes were particularly bright and translucent under the dim light, but they were also deep and serious. She said gravely, “Ah Chen, I know there are things you have to do. I also know that you’re hiding things from me, with all good intentions. I’m not asking you to tell me everything that’s going on, but I only ask that you protect yourself well. I want you to be safe… now and always.”

Mu Xichen’s heart skipped a beat.

Did she know something?

The man, who had always maintained a calm demeanor, suddenly wavered.

But very quickly, he regained his composure.

He reached for his wife’s hand, kissed it and said gently, “Don’t let your imagination run wild. Go to sleep.”

Li Beinian’s heart sank.

It looked like he was determined to keep his lips sealed.

Although she had said that she wasn’t asking for details, she was a little disappointed.

After looking at him for a long time, she finally turned around and went back to the room. She quietly lay down on the bed and closed her eyes.

Mu Xichen knew that she was upset. He got into bed after her and hugged her from behind, whispering, “Give me some time.”
