Chapter 162: What Did They Do to You?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The term âbreeding machineâ further pained Mubaiâs heart.
His grip on her hand tightened and his voice dropped in tone. âYouâre not that to me!â
Even though they didnât share an emotional bond during their marriage, he treated her as an equal. He had never once looked down on her.
If he only saw her as a âbreeding machineâ, he could have picked so many other women over her. Many candidates were climbing over each other to have his child.
If he only saw her as a âbreeding machineâ, he could have tossed her out the moment Lin Lin was born!
Xinghe laughed self-deprecatingly. âYou might not see me that way but your family certainly does. Youâve seen how your mother treated me just now. She wants the child to have nothing to do with me!â
Instead of finding excuses for his mother, Mubai said seriously, âIf you want to visit Lin Lin in the future, come to me anytime. You have my word, no one will stand in your wayâŠâ
Mubai then added, âAnd you will always be Lin Linâs mother.â
âFor real?â There were tears gathering in Xingheâs eyes.
Mubaiâs mouth curved into a confident smile. âI donât think anyone can stop me from doing what 1 want.â
âAlright, I will reach out to you in the future. You can let go of me now.â
âOne last question.â Mubai didnât let go. âWhat exactly did they do to you?â
âMubaiâŠâ Tianxin suddenly pulled on Mubaiâs arm and said softly, âAuntie looks like sheâs not feeling so well, letâs go back in.â
This was a last resort on Tianxinâs part. She was afraid Xinghe would spill the beans.
Mubai ignored Tianxin completely. He stared solely at Xinghe and repeated, âWhat did they do?â
âMubai, why are you asking her that? Auntie and 1 will tell you if youâre so interested,â Tianxin opened her mouth to say. Her words were laced with grievances as if Mubai was treating her unjustly.
Coldness entered Mubaiâs voice when he said, âXinghe, you tell the story.â
âMubai, are we so untrustworthy in your eyes? We didnât do anything towards Xinghe. If something really did happen like she claimed, do you think she would wait until now to tell the world?â Tianxinâs eyes were red with tears. She had never failed to earn pity from men with this skill before.
Alas, the man standing before her then was Xi Mubai. He was an incredibly rational creature.
Xinghe felt good watching Tianxin squirm.
She looked at Tianxin, curved her mouth into a smirk and said, âThey didnât do anything to meâŠâ
Tianxin could feel her legs go weak from both surprise and relief.
She should have known Xinghe would not reveal anything.
She was too familiar with her personality. Xinghe liked to have everything all cooped up within her, rather sharing her pains and explaining herself to the world.
Furthermore, it would be extremely difficult to explain the thing that happened that year.
It was the reason why she didnât say a word before and why she wouldnât say a word now.
âBut they did plenty of things to you!â Xinghe suddenly turned towards Mubai.
Tianxinâs heart almost leaped to her throat!
Before Mubai could ask for an explanation, she chuckled disingenuously. âXinghe, you must be kidding! What could Auntie and 1 have done to Mubai? Auntie is Mubaiâs mother and Iâm his fiance, do you think we would do anything to harm him? Stop stirring up trouble!â
Xinghe smiled slyly. â1 havenât said anything, why are you so all worked up? If youâre completely innocent, why are you worried?â
âWho said Iâm worried?â Tianxin argued furiously..
