Chapter 833: He Wanted Her To Bear His Child
Jiang Yeqing’s expression darkened. “Bo Chengcheng!”
“Ptui.” Bo Chengcheng looked him in the eye and declared, “Don’t even dream. I will not give you a child.”
“It’s not up to you.” Jiang Yeqing leaned over and breathed on the side of her face. “I don’t have a child. Whether you believe it or not, that child isn’t mine.”
“Ha.”
Did he take her for a fool?
Which man would keep a woman for three to four years for nothing?
Who the hell would let his kept woman bear another man’s child, and on top of that still be at her beck and call?
Jiang Yeqing was a chauvinist and had always been possessive of whatever was his.
It would be impossible for him to raise someone else’s child, much less someone else’s woman.
She knew him too well. What he said made no sense at all.
Jiang Yeqing felt bitter sensing that she did not believe him. Very quickly, he lowered his head again in a physical show of his determination.
Between a man and a woman, apart from love, only a child would be able to keep them together.
He wanted a child, and he wanted her to bear his child.
Li Beinian woke up early on the morning on New Year’s Eve.
The couple rushed to Ming City. The Mo Family was in a festive mood.
The festive atmosphere lasted throughout the day and was particularly pleasant.
Li Beinian had not experienced this sort of festive atmosphere in a long time. After the reunion dinner, the elders started playing mahjong.
This was Li Beinian’s first festive celebration with the family. The Eldest Madam of the Mo family, who was also Mu Xichen’s aunt, invited Li Beinian to play mahjong with them.
Besides Li Beinian and Eldest Aunt, the other players were Second Aunt and Mo Shengge.
Mo Shengge loved all sorts of games, and particularly enjoyed gambling.
By the time Mu Xichen came looking for them, the four women had already had a few games.
Li Beinian did not want to lose the game, yet she was too polite to win. Hence, she was caught in an awkward position.
On the other hand, Mo Shengge had been making a handsome profit and was all smiles.
When Eldest Aunt saw Mu Xichen walking towards them, she said, “Xichen is here. Come, come, sit down. Shengge has been winning too many games!”
“Auntie, I didn’t win much!” Mo Shengge looked aggrieved. “I only won a few thousand yuan, don’t be such a party pooper!”
Second Aunt smiled and said, “Your aunt has lost all her games to you, and yet you’re upset with her?”
“Hahaha!” Mo Shengge looked at Li Beinian happily and asked, “What about Sister-in-law?”
“I won a few dozen yuan.” Li Beinian looked relaxed and happy. She turned around and saw Mu Xichen standing behind her. “Are you done?”
Mu Xichen had just been persuaded by a few cousins to play a card game. Judging from the commotion, they had probably been thrashed by him.
Mu Xichen said, “I won too many games so they gave me the boot.”
“How could they do that, that’s just too much!” Mo Shengge was indignant. “I want to play too. Brother Xichen, why don’t you take over from me.”
“I don’t think so.” Mu Xichen placed his hand on Li Beinian’s shoulder. “The Spring Festival Gala is just about starting. Let’s watch that with Grandpa.”
“There’s nothing interesting about the Spring Festival Gala. I rather be playing mahjong.” Mo Shengge looked most reluctant. “Why not, Mom and Auntie, both of you stop playing and go watch some TV. I’ll join them in the card game!”
She quickly slipped away right after she said this.
Eldest Aunt and Second Aunt smiled. After packing up the mahjong tiles, they sat in front of the television with Old Master Mo.
When the clock struck midnight, the elders gave out red packets. The juniors grinned and shouted out auspicious festive greetings.
