Chapter 640: Chapter 640: The Threat of Going with the Flow
The Bugatti roared and came to a stop at the villa entrance.
He got out of the car and didnât pause for a second before bursting into the villa.
Old Master Li had just been having his breakfast when he saw him storm in, a hint of surprise flashed through his hale and hearty eyes, but he remained calm as the servant wiped the corner of his mouth. Putting down the towel, he glanced at him, âWhat is it?â
âWhere is Chi Enen?â
He cut right to the chase!
âYou come early in the morning to find me just to ask this? When did you become so impatient?â Old Master Li was unruffled, having received the news of last nightâs events that morning, not any earlier than Li Beijue, but seeing how quickly his grandson had come to him, he knew there had been a misunderstanding.
He did not spell it out, and instead took the opportunity to stand up indifferently and asked, âWhen are you planning to get engaged to Zhixuan?â
Li Beijueâs face turned ashen, enunciating each word, âWhere is Chi Enen?â
Right now, he just wanted to know what had happened to that woman, whether she was fine, if she was hurt. What about the child in her stomach?
As for the others, to hell with them!
Old Master Liâs pupils narrowed, and his authoritative gaze swept over Beijueâs face. With the help of the old butler, he stood up, leaning on his Dragon Head Crutch, âBeijue, it seems you havenât grasped the situation yet. Answer my question first. Then your own will be answered.â
Did this mean Chi Enen was in his hands?
Beijueâs pupil color deepened, until it was frozen over, his face contorted with extreme ugliness, each word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, âHow is she? Is she in any danger?â
Old Master Li met his gaze, hesitated for a moment, and finally gave in slightly, replying, âHer condition depends on how you act next.â
That was an unmistakably clear threat!
Beijueâs pupils sank to their utmost depth, and in a rage so fierce he could almost kill! He clenched his fists at his side, and the wound on his back stretched open even more due to his sequence of actions. This time he hadnât taken Flin-125, and every pang of pain caused the muscles in his back to twitch, even his temples throbbing. His handsome face was pale and tense, expressionlessly staring at Old Master Li, those midnight-black pupils seemed bottomlessâ¦
The Old Butler noticed the blood seeping out from his back and his expression changed. Forgetting about propriety, he opened his mouth, âYoung Master, your woundâ¦â
How could there be so much blood?
Did the Young Master not go to the hospital for treatment last night?
After being injured so badly yesterday, how was he able to get up from bed today and come to confront Old Master Jue at the villa?
This wasnât a joke⦠it was risking his life!
Li Beijue, as if he couldnât feel the pain or hear what others said, asked with an icy expression, âIs it true that as long as I agree to get engaged to Kim Zhixuan, youâll ensure Chi Enenâs safety?â
Old Master Li furrowed his eyebrows slightly, undisturbed, âIt depends on your performance.â
âI want a guarantee!â There seemed to be flames igniting in his eyes!
He didnât want to hear uncertain answers, he wanted a guarantee, a promise!
A promise that the woman was safe in his hands; otherwise⦠Beijueâs pupils suddenly turned icy cold!
Old Master Li had never been pressed so aggressively in his lifetime. He locked eyes with Beijue for two seconds before turning his Dragon Head Crutch, âYou know that if you do as I ask, I will ensure her safety.â
