Chapter 466: Chapter 466: Discovered the Text Message on His Mobile Phone
Chi Enen, holding Baby Chi, went into the villa to bathe.
After washing off the sweat, she comfortably emerged from the bathroom, blow-dried her hair, and as she descended the stairs, spotted Li Beijueâs mobile phone on the sofa.
Recalling the family photo she had taken earlier, she approached, picked up the phone, and unlocked it using her birthday. She was preparing to transfer the two family photos from his phone to hers.
But just as she unlocked the phone, her gaze was drawn to an unread text messageâ âHey, have you seen the news? They took such flattering photos of me â(^o^)â.â
An exuberant emoticon followed the message.
Chi Enen paused momentarily.
Then she heard a manâs voice behind her, âWhat are you doing?â
Startled, the phone nearly dropped from her hand, and on impulse, she pressed the home button. Turning around, her expression somewhat unnatural, she said, âNothing, I just wanted to transfer the family photo from your phone to mineâ¦â
Li Beijue took the phone, glanced at it with a frown, and noticing it was still on the main menu, felt the large stone in his heart being set down.
He slipped the phone into his pocket and said, âLater, Iâll have Huo Yi send it to you.â
âOh,â Chi Enen didnât press further, appearing somewhat distracted.
She hid it well, so Beijue didnât notice her distraction as he strode away with his long legs, âI had someone make strawberry milkshake from the strawberries you picked. If you want some, just ask. Iâm going up to work now.â
âAlright.â
Chi Enen felt troubled and didnât know how to face him. She could relax a bit if he didnât stick close to her.
Beijue wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into an embrace, giving her a hot kiss before reluctantly letting her go. His falcon-like eyes laced with desire as he whispered in her ear, âI havenât touched you in two days, tonight you must make it up to me!â
A lustful maniac!
Chi Enenâs face flushed crimson, and she abruptly pushed him away.
Li Beijue had returned to the country ahead of schedule and indeed had plenty of work to attend to, so he headed upstairs.
Once he disappeared around the staircase corner, the flush on Chi Enenâs face quickly faded. She found her phone in her bag, powered it on, and saw that there was no network signal at all, completely unable to connect to the Internet. However, the phone signal was there, so making calls wasnât affected.
Her lips formed a tight line as she looked up Lin Anxinâs phone number.
After a momentâs hesitation, she walked to a quiet corner and dialedâ
âBeepâ¦â
âBeep beepâ¦â
The phone rang over ten times before someone finally answered. âHello, Enen.â
âAnxin, I need to talk to you about something. Is it a good time for you?â
Lin Anxin glanced at the man sprawled on her sofa who refused to leave, took her phone, and headed outside. Once she reached the bedroom, she locked the room door, opened the glass door, and stepped onto the balcony before speaking, âI can talk now. Whatâs up?â
About to possibly discover the truth, Chi Enen suddenly felt hesitant to ask.
What if⦠what if⦠she received an answer she didnât want to know? How would she face it?
Chi Enenâs heart felt like it was terminally ill, aching terribly.
âEnen? Hello, are you still there?â Lin Anxin had waited a while without a response and started to mutter, âWhatâs going on, is there no signal? Enen?â
Chi Enen snapped out of her thoughts and steeled herself to ask, âAnxin, I need to ask you something.â
âI thought you had no signal on your end, you were so silent. What is it?â Lin Anxin teased with a smile.
