章 909: Waiting for A New Day, Or Death (16)

Without you, these two children don't mean a thing.

Li Beinian felt as if her heart had been gripped by an invisible hand. She tensed up and her expression wavered.

Mu Xichen reached out to gently stroke her head. He said in a quiet voice, "If you're unwilling, I won't force you. But don't let your imagination run wild. I've never thought of you as a baby making tool. I want the children because they are your children. But if you don't want them, it's fine, I will respect your decision."

Mu Xichen was rarely this serious.

His earnest expression and every word he said pierced right through the girl's heart.

She felt an inexplicable wave of emotions wash over her as tears welled up in her eyes.
