Chapter 834: Drink the Milk and Go To Sleep
In the blink of an eye, it was the first day of the New Year. This was Li Beinian’s first New Year with the Mo Family.
The atmosphere was festive and it felt homely.
According to tradition, one was not allowed to shower on the first day of the new year.
Li Beinian changed into her pajamas and jumped into bed.
This was typical of the weather in the Great South. It had been unbelievably cold right up till now, but now that it was the New Year, it started to get warm.
Given this weather, Li Beinian wore a light t-shirt and shorts to sleep in. She laid on the bed and sent a message to Nico.
[Jin Li Yi Bei]: Happy New Year, Daddy! Hope all your dreams and wishes come true in the new year! [Heart]
New York was 13 hours behind Xia Nation; it was only Noon in New York now.
Nico immediately replied: Happy New Year, my Beinian!
[Jin Li Yi Bei]: I had New Year’s Eve dinner at home today. It was awesome! When are you coming to Guang City?
[Nico]: [Voice] (English)
“When I’m done here. I believe it won’t take long. Happy New Year, my daughter.”
[Nico]: [Voice] (English)
“I’ve already withdrawn my will. When my mother asked me why I did this, I told her the truth. Now, your grandmother really wants to see you. She wants to meet you and give you all the warmth that you’ve missed out all these years. I wanted to seek your opinion.”
When Li Beinian heard this, she paused for a moment and played the voice message again to confirm her understanding of his message.
The face of an elderly and stern woman appeared in her mind.
There was nothing on that face or its expression that hinted at any desire to meet her.
Li Beinian was quite certain… the person had no wish to meet with her.
However, she was not sure if that face belonged to Nico’s mother.
Mu Xichen, in his dark blue silk pajamas and holding a glass of milk, walked in at this point.
As he entered the room, he heard part of what Nico was saying.
He held the milk out to Li Beinian and asked, “So are you considering going to England?”
Li Beinian shook her head and said, “No, I don’t really want to go.”
“Reject it then.” Mu Xichen took the cell phone from her and looked askance at it. “Finish the milk and go to sleep.”
“Alright.” Li Beinian replied like an obedient child, but immediately, another thought flashed across her mind.
In her previous life, Nico died in an accident. For that reason, the Rothschild family came looking for her. They wanted her to inherit what had been willed to her.
However now, her alert appeared to have kept Nico safe and alive, he had even withdrawn his will. Given this, could it be that the person no longer had any reason to harbor ill intentions towards her?
At this point, she was stepping forward as a legitimate granddaughter, as well as Nico’s daughter. This was a positive situation.
Although they had not officially acknowledged this in their official family tree, it had become a matter of understanding among them.
So…
Perhaps they could meet.
Li Beinian seemed to come to a pause as she drank her milk. Mu Xichen had just replied when he noticed Li Beinian in a daze. He reached out to take the cup from her and asked, “What’s on your mind?”
After gulping down the rest of the milk, Mu Xichen placed the glass on the bedside table and turned out the lights.
Li Beinian laid down clutching the blanket in her hand and said, “I’m thinking if I should go and meet her. After all… she’s my grandmother.”
Although the elderly woman wasn’t particularly friendly in Li Beinian’s previous life, Li Beinian felt rather sorry for her.
Her husband died early, her son died young and unmarried, and the Rothschild family did not even have an heir…
