Chapter 680: Chapter 680: Have You Done Something Wrong?
Evening, Chi Enen had been waiting early inside the room.
Apart from waiting, she also prepared a table full of dishes.
At midnight, Li Beijue arrived on time by climbing over the wall.
As soon as he entered, he saw the dishes laid out on the table. Before he could react, he saw the woman on the sofa brighten up and stand, greeting him naturally with a smile, “I knew you didn’t have dinner, so I didn’t eat either and waited for you. I’m so hungry, let’s eat.”
Li Beijue strode over with his long legs. His falcon-like eyes swept over the table; eighty percent of the dishes were his favorites. A flicker of suspicion passed briefly through his eyes, and his thin lips pursed, “Chi Enen, have you done something guilty?”
He hit the nail on the head with just one sentence!
The person helping with the rice paused imperceptibly in her action, but it was only for an instant, so quick that it was hardly noticeable, and in the blink of an eye, she had recovered her normal composure. She twitched the corner of her mouth, her gaze somewhat shifty, “What guilty thing would I do? You’re overthinking it.”
“Is that so?” Li Beijue clearly didn’t believe her.
This woman gave him a strange feeling tonight. Even though he couldn’t pinpoint what was strange, he just felt something was off.
Chi Enen scooped him a bowl of rice and also one for herself, then picked a piece of pork rib and placed it inside his bowl, “These pork ribs taste good, try it.”
Was she changing the subject? The suspicion in Beijue’s eyes deepened. He picked up the chopsticks but kept his gaze on her face, as if trying to see a flower emerge from her.
Chi Enen didn’t expect her subterfuge to be seen through right from the start. She gripped the chopsticks nervously, trying to appear as natural as possible, and also picked up a piece of pork rib, bit off a mouthful, then looked up at him with a strange expression, “Eat, why aren’t you eating? Could it be that you already had dinner?”
“I didn’t.” There were too many things to do, too busy, too urgent, and he had to finish everything before evening, so he really had no time to eat.
However…
Li Beijue’s falcon-like eyes suddenly narrowed, his gaze sharply turning towards her. He didn’t touch the pork rib in the bowl that looked fragrant in every sense, as if he saw right through her little schemes. His thin lips touched each other, “Are you still thinking about yesterday’s matter?”
“Yesterday’s matter?” Chi Enen was confused by his question, and asked reflexively.
“The matter about the child’s gender in your stomach.” Li Beijue put down his chopsticks, and his handsome face turned grim, “If you think being tough won’t work and you’re trying to persuade me softly, you’re wrong. I won’t change my mind about this, so Chi Enen, don’t even think about it! If you dare bring up those messy grand principles to me, I will immediately shut you up!”
How he would shut her up was left unsaid.
Chi Enen felt embarrassed for a moment, her heart that had been suspended finally settled in her stomach, and she quietly let out a sigh of relief. It was lucky that Li Beijue only thought she was trying to use a honey trap to persuade him not to abort the child.
She had known for a while that nothing would ever persuade him. So…
Chi Enen tugged at the corner of her mouth, putting on a clear smile, exceptionally compliant, and said softly, “I understand, let’s eat first. I’m really hungry, I’ve been waiting since the afternoon, and I just had some biscuits to fill my stomach.”
Although Li Beijue felt she wasn’t heeding his words, seeing she didn’t seem to be faking her hunger, he still picked up the chopsticks and began eating.
Once he started eating, he stopped talking right away, and his demeanor returned to his usual haughty, noble aura.
What do you think?
