Chapter 999

Under Baili Xia’s gaze, still holding a glimmer of hope, Mu Xiaojiu’s cold eyes dimmed even further.

“Utter nonsense, I’ve said it’s impossible, don’t try to fool me with such an excuse!”

“The baby inside me really is yours, I’m not lying to you!”

She yelled out, her earnest face, serious words, and her eyes filled with grief, left Mu Xiaojiu speechless for a moment.

His already deathly still eyes stared fixedly at her face, and the large hand on her shoulder was involuntarily tightening.

Baili Xia just looked at him, not saying anything more.

She was studying the expression in the depths of his eyes, gradually, she also began to feel desperate.

He didn’t believe her, he really didn’t.

It turned out, he could be so heartless.

Mu Xiaoyao couldn’t understand the silent exchange of looks between the two, but seeing them at a standoff like this, he thought Uncle truly didn’t believe and thus added a few words.

“It’s true, she went to the hospital for a check-up, and the result truly shows she is one month pregnant.”

“One month?” Mu Xiaojiu’s fingers suddenly tensed, and Baili Xia felt a sharp pain on her shoulder.

He was hurting her.

Yet, she just bit her lip, furrowed her brow, but didn’t cry out to him.

The last traces of light in Mu Xiaojiu’s eyes were dying out bit by bit, the chill emanating from his body had already been enough to freeze someone to death.

At this moment, it was so cold as if it wanted to destroy the entire world, cold enough to completely drain the life from his surroundings.

“Uncle…” Mu Xiaoyao didn’t know what he had said wrong, he was simply stating the facts, also trying to let him know that Baili Xia wasn’t lying to him.

But why did Uncle now look like he was about to lose his sanity in rage?

“Who? Whose child is it? Whose is it?”

Mu Xiaojiu suddenly shouted, cutting off all of Mu Xiaoyao’s words.

He stared intensely at Baili Xia, his black pupils flashing red like a crazed beast, with nothing but ferocity in his eyes.

Such a gaze, even Nangong Xu and Mu Xiaoyao had never seen before.

Baili Xia herself was so frightened by his beast-like eyes that she forgot the pain in her shoulder.

Then he clenched his hand again, and she came back to her senses amid the intense pain, letting out a muffled groan.

Pain brought her consciousness fully back, and she met the man’s murderous gaze.

She just stared at him blankly, even forgetting to feel sad.

This was her man, the father of the baby in her belly.

He not only doubted her fidelity but even considered killing her.

The murderous intent was so heavy, so tangible, even a blind person could sense it.

At that moment, she didn’t feel despair, nor was she upset, but instead, she felt an urge to laugh.

Only after everything turned into reality did she realize that him not wanting her wasn’t so unbearable after all.

Her heart was already numb; if he didn’t want her, so be it, if he wanted to kill her, then let him.

If he truly didn’t want her or her child, what did it matter if he killed her?

It didn’t matter, did it?

Her lips moved slightly, and a faint smile actually spread across them—no sorrow, no despair…

Just very faint, really faint.

“I’m asking you a question!”

Mu Xiaojiu’s fingers were still tightening, knowing she was in pain, but he couldn’t calm down.

Staring at the hint of a smile on her lips, the fury in his chest had gathered to the point where it could completely incinerate the world.

Gripping her shoulder, he suddenly withdrew his hand with a “snap”, and his fist landed on the medical table next to them!
