Chapter 635: Oh No, What If She Was Really Pregnant…
Feng Yiran’s looked completely defeated. He noted Li Beinian’s shy and flushed expression as she stood beside the tall man, and his heart sank.
Married?
They were actually married?
Mu Xichen did not look at him. He swept Li Beinian up in his arms and said lightly, “Let’s go back.”
Sensing his displeasure, Li Beinian obediently allowed him to carry her as she briefly threw Feng Yiran a glance.
Feng Yiran’s face was ashen. He stood in the middle of the forest, looking particularly lonely and desolate.
Li Beinian couldn’t bear it and spoke up, “Feng Yiran, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to hide it from you. Please don’t tell anyone. Thank you!”
Mu Xichen smacked her bottom unhappily and said, “You’re asking for a beating.”
Li Beinian squirmed in embarra.s.sment and protested coquettishly. “Don’t hit my b.u.t.t!”
Mu Xichen snorted and carried her like a sack. All the tenderness and doting vanished without a trace.
Knowing that she had erred, Li Beinian stopped and obediently rested against his shoulder.
When Feng Yiran heard the playful voices of the couple, he suddenly felt no jealousy.
He had always thought that she was a heroic figure, he did not expect her to have such a girly side to her.
Except that it wasn’t towards him. She was snuggled up in another man’s embrace, like a soft and obedient little bird.
He had to admit, Mu Xichen was an outstanding man.
Extremely outstanding.
He was… very compatible with her.
Feng Yiran stood there for a long time. Feeling lost, he watched as their silhouette gradually disappeared into the distance.
Li Xueqing, who had been hiding in the shadows, was also shocked by this new development. She sat among a pile of dried leaves in disbelief.
They… were married?
Married???
It was only after some time that she suddenly got up and ran back.
Everyone discovered a pattern.
As long as Chief Mu was here, they invariably were given an afternoon break.
Li Beinian returned to the dormitory and went to the washroom to clean up her sticky body. Only then did she realize… that she seemed to have missed her period this month!
Li Beinian’s heart sank the moment this realization hit her.
No… it couldn’t be?
She started counting the time on her fingers and realized that 32 days had pa.s.sed since her last period.
According to the usual routine, her period had always been, at the very maximum, 30 days apart.
After her last period, she had been with Mu Xichen during her “safe” time frame, and hence hadn’t taken any precautionary measures.
And, they had been apart for a month!
It was the same today. Li Beinian felt that it fell in the safe time frame, so she had no qualms about it. Only when she returned to the dormitory did she realize that something was amiss.
Her heartbeat quickened and she started to panic.
Oh no, oh no. What if she was really pregnant… What should she do?
Li Beinian walked out anxiously and saw Liu Wei brus.h.i.+ng her teeth by the sink.
The latter was surprised to see Li Beinian.
She spat out the toothpaste foam and rinsed her mouth. “Why didn’t you go for dinner? You… Eh?”
As Liu Wei spoke, her gaze fell on Li Beinian’s neck. “What have you been doing?”
Li Beinian’s heart skipped a beat and she instinctively looked into the mirror. Indeed, there was a faint purple mark on the edge of the collar of her military uniform.
She covered it in reflex with her long hair and replied, “Nothing much.”
Liu Wei put down her mug and said with a solemn expression, “Feng Yiran didn’t turn up for his meal either. Could it be that you and he…”
Li Beinian frowned and said, “No way, I’d sooner be with anyone else!”
