Chapter 485: Chapter 485: Li Beijue is Back
The mobile phone emitted a busy signal, and Chi Enen finally widened her eyes, unable to believe what had just happened as she put down the phone. The screen had already returned to the main page, affirming that Li Beijue had indeed disconnected the call.
Chi Enen couldnât express what she was feeling inside.
Before she made the call, she had been brimming with confidence.
But after the call, she felt uncertain.
Li Beijue had hung up on her just because she asked about the rumors concerning him in Country W? He didnât even offer an explanationâ¦
She pursed her lips tightly and mustered the courage to dial again.
This time, it was even more brusque.
Li Beijue didnât pick up at all; after the beep, there was just the voice of an automated woman.
Chi Enen felt her heart being wrenched.
After dialing the third phone call, following the beeping, it was still the automated womanâs voice, âIâm sorry, the user you are calling is busy.â
Her expression turned gloomy as she set the phone down.
Things donât happen three times, she had called him three times, and if he wasnât going to answer, then there was no point in calling a fourth time.
Chi Enen returned to the living room.
Huo Yi immediately looked at her, âMiss Chi, how did it go?â
Chi Enen couldnât manage a smile and shook her head at him, âHeâs not answering his phone.â
âMaster Jue is not answering your call?â Huo Yiâs first reaction was disbelief, and he looked at Chi Enen with surprise. However, seeing her unmistakably disheartened appearance, he was convinced otherwise.
Miss Chi wouldnât lie to him, there was only one possibility nowâMaster Jue was truly not answering Miss Chiâs phone calls!
But⦠how could that be possible?
Master Jue cared about Miss Chi so much; even if they had arguments or he was angry, he wouldnât just ignore her calls.
âCould it be that Master Jue didnât see the call from Miss Chi?â he speculated.
Chi Enen pressed her lips together, âHe saw it.â
The first call was disconnected by him, and when she immediately called back, he didnât answer. It wasnât because he didnât see it; it was definitely because he chose not to answer.
ââ¦Let me call Master Jue and ask,â Huo Yi still felt that something was offâit just didnât make sense.
Chi Enen hesitated, but she didnât stop him.
Huo Yi took out his mobile phone and dialed Li Beijueâs number. After about ten seconds, he put the phone down in silence, unsure of how to meet Chi Enenâs gaze, âMaster Jue didnât answer.â
Chi Enenâs eyes completely dimmed.
She didnât know where things had gone wrong.
Why was Li Beijue not answering calls again?
Could it really be because of the scandal she discovered about him being involved with someone outside?
She tensed her back, and in such circumstances, she was even doubting the scandal herself. Chi Enen couldnât help but mock herself.
Huo Yi saw her troubled face and hurriedly suggested she rest on the sofa.
But he was not a talkative person by nature, especially in the presence of women, where his words were even fewer. Though he was anxious, he couldnât figure out how to comfort Chi Enen.
Huo Yi felt some annoyance; had he known, he wouldnât have interjected so much. It seemed he had only made things worseâ¦
â¦
Time ticked away every minute and second.
Suddenly.
The sound of a door opening came from the entryway.
A womanâs voice drifted in, âHey, why did you bring me here?â
âShut up!â
This impatient voice wasâLi Beijue!
Chi Enen stood up from the sofa and looked towards the entryway.
The door flung openâ
A man and a woman entered; the woman was tall and beautiful, the man exuded nobility, and it was unmistakably Li Beijue, who had not answered the phone just an hour before!
Kim Zhiyuan was taken aback to find others in the mansion and paused.
But in that moment of her distraction, Li Beijue had already dragged her, half-pulling and half-shoving, in front of Chi Enenâ¦
