“Will the engagement not be called off just because I apologize?”
Li Beinian chuckled.
How naive.
Seeing that there was not a single tinge of remorse on Li Beinian’s face, Li Haoran humphed and said, “At the very least, you’d better put on a good attitude.”
“Hehe. You’ve never trusted me in the first place.” Li Beinian chuckled sarcastically and stared at Li Haoran with a look of disappointment.
Li Haoran felt guilty somehow, after seeing her expression.
He looked away and chastised coldly, “Your grandpa went through painstaking means to get you engaged to Mu Donglin. Don’t embarrass him.”
“Your father’s trust is not going to be enough,” Fang Zhili butted in abruptly.
She glanced at Li Beinian tenderly.
Li Beinian looked towards the side to see that Fang Zhili had a face full of exquisite makeup. Although she was already in her forties, she still looked like she was in her twenties or thirties.
“You must let the Mu Family believe you, Niannian.”
Li Haoran’s face turned less sullen and he gazed at Fang Zhili tenderly.
Still looking at Li Beinian, Fang Zhili continued, “Your father did that for your own good. When the time comes, swallow your pride and apologize. There’s nothing that we can’t solve together. Only by doing so, will you make things easier for all of us.”
Although she sounded like she was helping Li Haoran solve the problem, she was actually reminding Li Haoran that Li Beinian was just a thief in the eyes of the Mu Family members!
She was also saying that Li Beinian was making life hard for Li Haoran.
Li Beinian kept her guard up.
In both lifetimes, Fang Zhili managed to keep Li Haoran wrapped around her finger. She had no choice but to admit that Fang Zhili was indeed rather scheming.
Li Beinian smirked and chuckled. “Sure.”
Li Haoran was initially still worried about Li Beinian going against Fang Zhili. However, he felt relieved to see Li Beinian’s reaction.
Fang Zhili did not expect Li Beinian to be so straightforward either.
She could not help but find it strange.
However, it was not a bad thing.
Li Haoran walked out and said to Fang Zhili, “You do know what to do.”
Appearing a little shy, Fang Zhili said, “Actually, she still respects you. She just can’t accept us for now. That’s why she’s being a little rebellious.”
Li Haoran loved it whenever Fang Zhili acted coquettish. However, he sighed and said, “Stop speaking up for her. This lass has become used to being wild and was led astray. It’s hard for her to learn to be good in a short amount of time. I hope she won’t create anymore trouble. That would be terrible.”
Fang Zhili nodded and smiled joyously.
You are just a wild little lass. No matter how scheming and shrewd you may be, you’re just a 19 year old girl. It is only a matter of time before I get rid of you!
Li Beinian began to get a little confused but she roughly knew what they were talking about.
She smirked and followed them into the car silently.
The Li Family home was neither too far nor close from the Mu Family Mansion.
It was about a 20-minute drive.
As soon as she got inside the car, Li Beinian felt an urge to pee. She finally realized that she had yet to go to the washroom today.
She held it in silently and by the time they arrived at the Mu Family Mansion, her abdomen had already become rather swollen and achy.
The car finally pulled over and Li Beinian immediately scurried out.
At the same time that she alighted, a black Bentley pulled over in front of them.
The car was elegant, clean and posh.
Mu Donglin alighted from the car and his eyes glistened upon sight of Li Beinian.
Her outfit suited her greatly.
It was simple and refreshing.
That was not her usual style.
Did she… especially dress up because she was going to meet me?
