But they couldn't.
She had no way of saving the babies. She could only lay helpless as they lost their vital signs. Their struggle became weaker and weaker, and the signs of life she could feel within her faded gradually.
And she could do nothing but cry in despair.
She couldn't speak.
She was in great pain and she couldn't even escape.
In the end, she failed to protect them.
That was the last of Mu Xichen's bloodline.
Mu Xichen's heart sank deeper as she went on. He tugged at her and whispered, "Stop talking about it."
Li Beinian choked. "I couldn't save them. I wasn't able to save Ah Chen either. I couldn't save myself. My lover and my family were all gone."
The Chi family had long been cut off by Li Haoran, and Old Master Li was completely unaware of her situation.
In Mu Donglin's house, she was like a sacrificial lamb waiting to be slaughtered, with no power to resist.
