Chapter 414: You Have Never Lost Your Temper With Me Before
Li Beinian didn’t show up even when he was having his wound treated at the hospital.
During this period, Chi Hailang would recall his interactions with Li Beinian to Mu Xichen. They ranged from street racings to catching bugs.
Even though Mu Xichen had a nonchalant expression the entire time, Chi Hailang could capture the subtle joy in his eyes.
As the treatment went on, Chi Hailang received a call from Li Beinian.
Seeing that the call was from her, he passed the phone to Mu Xichen and said, “It’s my sis. Help me with it, please.”
Mu Xichen took a look at the name registered on the phone: Chi Beinian.
He picked up the call.
A voice quickly emerged. “Young brat, I want to return the money later. Please ask Leader Mu for his bank account number.”
Mu Xichen paused for a moment and replied, “Why not ask it from me directly?”
As she wasn’t expecting to hear from him, Li Beinian froze. Just when she was about to speak, Mu Xichen continued, “You’re hiding from me again.”
Not knowing what to say, she felt as if there was something heavy on her chest. She paused for a while and replied, “Leader Mu, I would like to thank you for your trouble today.”
Leader Mu.
Mu Xichen immediately felt a sense of disappointment.
It took him a great while to transit from Leader Mu to Mu Xichen, and from Mu Xichen to Ah Chen. In a matter of a few days, it changed to Leader Mu again.
“Since you’re thanking me, why can’t I feel your sincerity?” Mu Xichen replied apathetically. “I’m discharged from the service already, stop addressing me as Leader Mu.”
Li Beinian bit her lip and replied, “Mr. Li, then allow me to treat you to a meal later. Also, could you give me your bank account number? I will return the money to you. We can go to the real estate bureau at your convenience to transfer the house to your name. also, I have a few savings as well...” Li Beinian paused. With a soft voice, so soft that it was almost inaudible, she continued, “We have agreed to go our separate ways. Take it as though I’m begging you. Accept the things that you should take.”
The call was hung up. Li Beinian stared at the screen for a while, yet she couldn’t breathe a sigh of relief.
She glanced towards the entrance to the hospital. The strong glare of the afternoon sun strained her eyes.
She sent a WeChat to Chi Hailang, stating: “Remember to treat Leader Mu to a meal later. I’m heading back as I’m not feeling well.”
She then transferred 2000 yuan to him and drove off to Qing Shui Fu.
It was already noon by the time she got back. As she entered the room, she saw the breakfast in the kitchen.
It was meant for two people.
However, it had already gone cold.
Li Beinian couldn’t decide how she should feel in this situation. She took off her shoes and threw herself onto the sofa.
She didn’t have a good night’s sleep yesterday. As she laid there, she drifted off to sleep.
After some time, she suddenly heard the sound of the door being opened.
She shuddered and opened her eyes immediately.
It was a masked Chi Hailang, carrying two takeaway bags.
Looking at Li Beinian, he took off his mask and said jokingly, “Come, let’s eat.”
“Didn’t I tell you to treat him to a meal?”
“Leader Mu was worried that you might be hungry. So, he asked me to buy you some food.”
“What about him?”
“He mentioned that he has to work and left.”
Chi Hailang put down the car key, and Li Beinian immediately recognized it as the key to Mu Xichen’s Spyker. She asked, “He allowed you to drive it?”
“Yeah. It was such a cool experience driving that beast of a car!”
“It’s such an expensive car. You can’t afford it if anything happens to it. Don’t you know what you are doing!” Li Beinian lashed out. “He’s the one doing you a favor now, why are you handling his things!”
Shocked by her sudden outburst, Chi Hailang replied after a while, “What’s the matter with you? You have never lost your temper with me before.”
