Capítulo 1835: Chapter 1825: Since You’re Here, Stay for Dinner Before You Go
The man getting out of the car was dressed in a custom-made suit. The well-tailored suit on him fully highlighted his elite aristocratic aura. His straight, slender legs fitted in the suit pants could rival those of male models!
“… Li Beijue?” Chi Enen was stunned for a mont, instinctively sizing him up from head to toe. The noble man looked impeccable, not like soone who had been in an accident.
Her face was still pale, as she asked, “You… you were in a car accident?”
As soon as she spoke, the arrogant man furrowed his eyebrows, glanced at her with his falcon-like eyes, raised his proud chin slightly, and shot back, “Who told you I was in a car accident?” He didn’t say so!
Huo Yi, who had been blad, stepped forward depressingly, tily interrupting, and said to Chi Enen, “Miss Chi, my apologies. I was too anxious. Master Jue indeed had a minor car accident, but it was just a rear-end collision with two cars. I intended to tell Miss Chi that Master Jue wasn’t hurt, but Miss Chi already hung up the phone… Miss Chi, I’m very sorry.”
Chi Enen silently glanced at both of them.
She’s not an idiot, how could she not see through a lie even nine-year-old Baby Chi wouldn’t believe?
How could she not know who Huo Yi is?
Li Beijue’s right-hand man, a top-notch butler with full professional skills. Huo Yi couldn’t possibly make such a low-level mistake!
Also, there’s no way a minor incident like this would lead him to panic and call her.
Thus, there’s only one truth—the previous phone call was Li Beijue requiring him to make it!
Chi Enen’s heart, suspended in mid-air, fell heavily back down, and at the sa ti, she felt a surge of anger rising uncontrollably. She had been played like a fool, her face showing displeasure, she stayed silent for a mont, then calmly said, “No matter. Since you’re fine, I’ll head back first.”
With that, she surprisingly turned to leave.
Li Beijue had imagined countless reactions she’d have when eting him again. Never did he expect Chi Enen wouldn’t even greet him, turning to leave so abruptly.
His handso face darkened, turning ashen. His long legs stepped forward, forcefully grabbing the wrist of the person about to leave.
“Since you’re here, let’s eat before you go!”
Chi Enen now wanted to slap him, rather than have a al! Her wrist was tightly gripped, afraid she couldn’t control her anger at being tricked and deceived, she struggled to suppress it and turned back, saying, “I’m not hungry yet.”
Because she had plans with Xi Zelie later, she didn’t want to eat now! Li Beijue’s grip on her hand tightened, the depths of his dark eyes seemingly flickering with flas, profound and assertive, not allowing rejection.
“I’m hungry!”
Chi Enen’s retort was already on the tip of her tongue, nearly blurting out, “What does your hunger have to do with !”
She hadn’t had the chance to say it, when the arrogant man quickly said, “Chi Enen, my stomach hurts. I’m hungry.”
My stomach hurts, I’m hungry.
These six simple words promptly suppressed the peak of her irritation.
Chi Enen froze all over, hating herself imnsely for her soft-hearted nature. But she couldn’t bring herself to say no. Yet, she didn’t want to agree with him so easily either.
Huo Yi, very cleverly, interjected at this mont, saying, “There’s a restaurant not far ahead, which happens to serve Miss Chi’s favorite seafood porridge. Their shrimp seafood porridge is the best in Country W.”
“Let it be this one then.” She hadn’t even agreed, but the domineering man already swung his hand, settling the decision.
