Three hours later, the banquet in Country W ended.
Chi Enen returned to the old mansion by car.
Throughout the journey, the cold-faced man didnât say a word but held her hand tightly. The continuous warmth from his palm gave a comforting feeling.
Chi Enen knew he deliberately remained silent, wanting her to calm her emotions on her own.
Seeing his back tense up as if facing a great enemy, Chi Enen felt a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
Actually, she was much better now. After all, she was well aware of what kind of person Chi Jianguo was, not something she realized just today.
She was merely once again reminded of the shamelessness Chi Jianguo was capable of!
Itâs false to say sheâs not affected at all, such things would upset anyone. But it was merely discomfort, and she wouldnât let it entirely affect her mood like before.
Sheâs more worried about his reputation now.
With such an incident, Li Beijue followed her in losing face, she...
Chi Enen took a deep breath, suppressing her inner discomfort.
As Lincoln stopped at the doorway, the car door was immediately opened by someone, "Miss Chi, young master. Welcome home."
It was the old butler.
Li Beijue stepped out of the car first, not forgetting to hold onto her hand as he exited. Chi Enen felt warm inside despite the helplessness.
She followed him out.
The old butler glanced at their held hands, recognizing Li Beijueâs domineering hold on Chi Enen, recalling the news he previously heard, he looked more worried and said, "Miss Chi, Master Jue wants to see you."
Li Beijue suddenly halted his steps, his long legs proud, squinting his falcon-like eyes in alert as he stood in front of Chi Enen, replying, "No seeing!"
Damn it, the old man wanted to see Chi Enen at this time, definitely no good!
It must be the incident at the banquet that the old man found out about!
Shi-t!
Chi Enen felt the force between her fingers suddenly increase, knowing what he was thinking. But with such an incident, avoidance isnât the solution.
"Alright, is it now?"
"Chi Enen, you must not go!" Li Beijue frowned tightly, his thin lips pressed into a line as his falcon-like eyes glared at her, his attitude clear, "Tell the old man, Chi Enen has no time, she wonât see him!"
As a guest at the Li family, she couldnât possibly have no time. Even kindergarten little friends wouldnât believe such a lie, yet he could utter it with such righteousness, Chi Enen was impressed.
She ignored Li Beijue and calmly looked at the old butler, insisting on her words, "If itâs now, Iâll go right away."
As soon as she finished speaking, her left hand was pulled, causing her to swing sideways reflexively, looking towards the man pulling her.
Only to see the man as handsome as Apollo, with falcon-like eyes burning with fierce flames, gritting his teeth in a low growl, "Chi Enen, are you deaf to human words or what! I told you, donât go! No seeing!"
"You think heâll have anything good in store for seeing you? Iâm hungry, come back with me and accompany me for dinner!"
Saying this, he stretched his long legs, forcefully pulling her to leave.
However, Chi Enen remained completely still, not listening to him.
Li Beijue tugged once, realizing she wouldnât move, irritably turned around, just about to speak.
Only to meet a pair of clear bright eyes, he furrowed his eyebrows as he listened to the little ladyâs calm voice, "Li Beijue, I canât forever avoid meeting your grandfather, so, I have to go."
