The unique scorching body temperature of a man was transmitted from her wrist, along with the overpowering scent of male hormones. The maid’s ears blushed involuntarily, and her heartbeat started to race wildly.
Just as she was filled with anticipation, a cold and ruthless voice suddenly ca from above her, "Has the Habsden family run out of people? To find such an ugly woman to play the honey trap?"
Out of people.
Such an ugly woman.
The sharp critique made the maid, whose heart had been pounding, turn pale and then flush with embarrassnt.
She was, after all, a renowned socialite in the social scene, known for her pure looks and a devilish figure, what second generation or the rich hasn’t fallen for her?
This was the first ti in her life that a man had rcilessly called her ugly!
Moreover, she could tell that he truly thought she was ugly!
He wasn’t deliberately calling her ugly to humiliate her.
But this kind of humiliation was even more humiliating than deliberately saying she was ugly!
"Young Master Li... What are you saying? I don’t understand?" She was unwilling to give up, deliberately using her most beautiful angle, pretending to be innocent and pathetic, and blinked slightly, hoping to draw his attention to her most captivating eyes.
However, her imagination was beautiful, but the effect was awkward.
The hand that was gripping her wrist suddenly let go. The arrogant man disdainfully drew a piece of paper, wiping the coffee off his hand while casually wiping his hand, as if he had touched so trash, displaying utter contempt. Then he squinted his eyes, impatiently glanced at her and said, "I thought they just found soone ugly, didn’t expect they found soone with an IQ problem as well."
Being called ugly was one thing, but being said to have an IQ problem!
The maid’s feigned innocent pretty face twisted completely, she was just about to retort.
At this ti, Quan Dongting’s voice ca out, "Alright, you can go down now."
As soon as he finished speaking, he entered from the back of the reception room.
The maid, seeing him arrive, held back her anger and left quietly.
The reception room was suddenly left with only Quan Dongting and Li Beijue.
Quan Dongting was still the sa as ever; at first glance, he would give off an approachable and friendly vibe, but upon closer look, one would discover his true elusive nature beneath that facade. He bore so resemblance to Chi Enen, but those tea-colored eyes differed more, having more of a mixed-blood appeal. He seed completely unfazed by the awkward situation that had just occurred, sitting directly across from Li Beijue, calling for the servant to co in, tidying up the ss on the table, and conveniently brewing two cups of coffee again.
Once the coffee was brewed, he unhurriedly began to speak, "That earlier was arranged by my mother. Personally, I think it’s aningless, but she insists on trying. Young Master Li, can you understand an elderly person’s concern?"
Li Beijue knew that the woman earlier was a test. He had already realized when the person accidentally ’bumped’ into him.
He initially thought about whether to play along, to properly showcase himself in front of Old Lady Habsden. However, he overestimated himself, when that person took out paper to touch his hand, he couldn’t help but feel disgusted and exposed the ruse.
Now that Quan Dongting straightforwardly told him that it was Old Lady Habsden’s test, although he was impatient, he still restrained his emotions and said, "Yes!"
As long as they didn’t force him and Chi Enen to break up, anything could be discussed!
