Chapter 883: Mu Donglin, Take Good Care of Yourself

Li Beinian said, “There’s a limit on visiting time. I will leave after you’ve eaten.” It was as though she had not noticed the look in Mu Donglin’s eyes.

There was a movement in his Adam’s apple, as he reached for the thermos flask and took a sip from it.

It was warm and delicious.

Mu Donglin did not speak further. He lowered his head to eat, but soon, his eyes started to sting and his throat tightened.

Although there wasn’t much food, the man struggled like never before to finish it all.

After a while, only the sound of Mu Donglin slowly chewing and drinking could be heard in this tiny space.

“Time’s up.”

The guard came in and rapped on the door.

Li Beinian tidied up and packed up the things that she had brought. Then, she turned to leave.

Mu Donglin watched as her back view started to disappear beyond the door frame. He then shouted uncontrollably, “Nian Nian, have you ever loved me?”

Li Beinian paused. Her back was to Mu Donglin, but she didn’t turn around.

The man’s heart pounded against his chest as he continued to look at her back view. He could feel his goosebumps rising.

Nervousness.

He had never been this nervous.

Her back was to him and in front of her, stood the police officer guarding the door.

The police officer looked very young and seemed like a decent lad.

He looked a little surprised at Mu Donglin’s sudden question and widened his eyes. He pricked up his ears, waiting for Li Beinian’s answer.

Li Beinian already had an answer.

Yes she did love him once.

To the point of exhaustion.

And it was a mistake.

But she couldn’t bring herself to say it. Instead, she changed the topic. “I’ll be leaving for England tomorrow, to go on my honeymoon. After that, we’ll be going to Italy. I hope that you’ll be out of here by the time we’re back.”

Mu Donglin felt a sharp pain in his heart when he heard this.

She had mentioned nothing about happiness, but he could feel her anticipation and joy when she said these words.

Her last sentence was spoken slowly.

With sincerity.

But he detected no other emotions in it.

“You’d know better than I, the sort of man Lin Ya is. Take good care of yourself.”

With that, Li Beinian quickly disappeared around the corner.

The young police officer glanced at Mu Donglin and quickly shut the door.

The dim enclosed space was lit only by a pale beam of light that reflected off the drifting specks of dust and cast a glow on the top of his head.

Li Beinian’s words echoed in his mind.

Was she asking him to guard against Lin Ya?

Mu Donglin smiled bitterly.

He was already in custody. If Lin Ya wanted to harm him, he was powerless to retaliate.

The worst case scenario would be a few years in jail.

Maybe ten years, maybe twenty years, at some point he’d get out.

When Li Beinian walked out of the police station, Mu Xichen was sitting at a table waiting.

When he saw her, he raised his eyebrows and got onto his feet.

His gaze fell on the bag she was holding by her side and his expression darkened.

As they left the police station, he finally snapped, grabbed it and threw it into the rubbish bin.

Seeing her husband throw a jealous tantrum somehow put Li Beinian in a much better mood.

When the man turned around and saw her smiling to herself, the fury that he felt, oddly, simmered down as well.

His facial expression gave no hint of this though. Mu Xichen walked up to her, deliberately sullen looking as he drew her towards himself, and whispered fiercely into her ear, “You’re not allowed to come here again!”

Li Beinian replied with a grin, “okay.”

She won’t be coming here again.

Ever.
