Chapter 933: Finale (5)
Li Beinian’s scenes had been reduced.
And significantly so.
She was rather annoyed about this. When she returned to the hotel determined to reason this out with Mu Xichen, she saw the man lying on the bed, his breathing quiet and even.
The air-conditioning in the room wasn’t switched on and the windows were shut. It was a little stuffy.
Mu Xichen did not have a blanket over him. He was in a dark gray T-shirt, lying on his side with his legs slightly bent.
He was sound asleep. When Li Beinian saw this, she subconsciously lightened her footsteps.
She shut the door gently and touched his body. It was warm and damp.
Tsk.
It was such a hot day, this man was too careless.
Li Beinian mumbled to herself as she turned on the air-conditioner and adjusted the temperature to 20 degrees.
Then, she removed her shoes, her bag, and her makeup. By the time she was done, the room had cooled.
Li Beinian quietly covered him with the blanket and then went into the bathroom.
After taking a shower, she dragged her exhausted body to the bed.
Just as she laid down beside the man, she felt a tightening around her waist.
A pair of strong arms wound themselves around her as she felt a body pressing up against her back. It was warm and cozy.
She nestled into a comfortable position and snorted. “You’re awake?”
“Uh huh.” Mu Xichen’s voice was muffled and thick with sleep, sounding rather lazy.
Li Beinian yawned too and said, “The director said that I will probably complete my filming in the next two days.”
“Huh?” Mu Xichen’s ears twitched. “That was pretty quick.”
Li Beinian glanced at him. “Isn’t that your idea?”
“No.” Mu Xichen rubbed his face against her neck. “Maybe it’s the director’s own idea. Why do you blame me for everything?”
“Hmph!” Li Beinian elbowed him in the waist. “For goodness’ sake, don’t think I don’t know you.”
“What do you know?” Mu Xichen held her tighter and placed his large palm on her belly. “Does this mean we can go back to Guang City then?”
“Uh huh.” Li Beinian squinted sleepily. “Shall we bring some gifts for our family when we return?”
“Your return is the best gift.” Mu Xichen’s hand around her little belly was protective, as though it was a treasure. He couldn’t help being filled with wonder and whispered, “My two little treasures are in this belly. Life is so amazing.”
The man had seen too many deaths and tragedies, but never the beginning of a tiny life.
And now, his offspring was being formed in his wife’s womb. How could anyone not be amazed?
Mu Xichen smiled and kissed her through her veil of hair. “Has my big baby had something to eat though?”
However, Li Beinian’s even breathing was the only response.
Mu Xichen was used to it by now. He chuckled and tucked her in. Then, hugging the most precious treasure in his life, he fell asleep peacefully.
For the rest of the next few days, Li Beinian completed her filming and invited the entire crew for dinner.
Everyone was in a jolly mood. Almost everyone in the crew knew about her pregnancy and she received all their blessings. She smiled happily as she responded to the wishes and returned to the hotel afterwards.
The evening flight arrived at Guang City at around 11 pm.
Chi Hailang proudly drove the car that he had bought with his competition prize money and came to pick her up.
When he spotted Mu Xichen from a distance carefully protecting Li Beinian as they walked out, he broke into a grin and shouted, “Beinian!”
