By the time she dealt with the second bowl, Li Beijue had already come out from his shower. Water droplets trickled down his resolute chin, incredibly sexy! He casually wiped the short hair at his temples with a white towel. It was a simple action, but he made it look inexplicably noble.
With a purely appreciative mind, she took a few extra glances.
Maybe it was because he had just showered, but he seemed much more relaxed, his precious red phoenix eyes half-open, half-closed. His long eyelashes, resembling little fans, cast a curved shadow under his eyelids. He didn’t seem as overbearing or as unapproachable as usual. It was the first time Enen directly felt this man’s handsomeness!
He really was very good-looking.
Not the creamy kind of good-looking like male celebrities on television, but the kind that had a strong, aggressive allure!
No wonder so many women had been so desperate for him since long ago.
Li Beijue didn’t notice that Chi Enen was looking at him. He tossed the used towel to a servant and pursed his thin lips, saying, “Chi Enen, get ready, we’re going somewhere in a bit.”
“Uh, where to?”
After the servant placed the towel properly, he respectfully handed a watch to Li Beijue. Taking the watch, Li Beijue strapped it on, glanced at the time, and said impatiently, “You’ll know when we get there.”
“How can 1 know what to prepare if you don’t tell me where we’re going?” Chi Enen was speechless.
Li Beijue glanced at her, thought for a moment, and then said, “Never mind, don’t bring anything. Just bring yourself.”
After all, her rags were only good for covering three strategic points, and it would be better to not bring them at all!
Li Beijue has always been an efficient man. He told her to get ready ten minutes ago, and ten minutes later, Chi Enen was already sitting in the car, ready to depart.
Outside the car window, the night view of Rainy City was continuously receding.
Chi Enen couldn’t help herself and turned her head to ask him again, “Li Beijue, where exactly are you taking me?”
The man, engrossed in his mobile phone, didn’t even look up, “Stop nagging! Can’t you see I’m busy?”
She didn’t see that at all!
Chi Enen grumbled inwardly, but she didn’t dare to voice her complaints out loud.
After all, if Li Beijue got upset, she would be the one to suffer in the end!
The car continued to drive smoothly, the driver as silent as a robot, completely unaffected by their conversation.
Chi Enen sat bored on the sofa, looking out at the streams of cars outside.
She had already mentally prepared herself.
Now without a penny to her name, she had nothing left but herself. Not being some exceptional beauty, she guessed that aside from this paranoid man, no other man would be willing to spend money on her. So she had no money. As for selling herself, she couldn’t command a high price. Even if someone wanted to cook her and eat her flesh, she didn’t have two pounds of meat on her…
With these thoughts, Chi Enen completely let go of her worries.
The car drove onto the high trestle bridge and continued forward until it reached the end of the airport, finally stopping.
Chi Enen was still wondering why Li Beijue had taken her to the airport when the man playing on his phone had already switched it off, giving her a sidelong glance before getting out of the car first.
“Get out.”
“Uh… okay.” She followed him out, step by step.
The driver respectfully opened the doors for both of them, and after Chi Enen got out, he closed the door and bowed to Li Beijue, saying, “Young Master Li, the airplane is ready and can depart anytime. Butler Huo has just arrived in Ryukyu to welcome you and Miss Chi.”
Airplane… Ryukyu…
Chi Enen vaguely remembered hearing this place name.
It seemed to be a very beautiful and luxurious island, known for its magnificent seascape, one of the most beautiful places in the world, and a favorite destination of the rich and powerful from all over.
Li Beijue was taking her to Ryukyu?
But why Ryukyu?
