Chi Enen was just about to agree when she heard a loud bang. The room door was kicked open by a tall man, who stormed in with an aura of blazing fury. His long legs were even more dazzling than the male models on the T stage!
The old butler was shocked and exclaimed in astonishment upon seeing the intruder, âYoung Master, youâ¦?â
The face that Old Master Li had just managed to calm suddenly darkened again, his eyes glaring angrily at the intruder. âWho allowed you to come in? Is there no sense of propriety anymore!â
âI will leave right away!â Li Beijue said with a livid face, striding swiftly to Chi Enen and grabbing her wrist abruptly, âLetâs go!â
Chi Enen stumbled from his pull, hurriedly grabbing onto him, âLi Beijue, you have misunderâ¦â
Before she could finish, a low growl sounded in her ear, âShut up, come with me!â
Old Master Li, filled with rage, banged the table, âOutrageous!â
Was he still alive, or had his room become a place where anyone could barge in? Had all his years of teaching gone into a dogâs stomach!
Was he the Li familyâs future heir or a street punk?
âButler, detain him for me! I must see what he intends to do today!â Old Master Li was furious beyond belief.
The old butler watched as the perfectly good situation was turned upside down by the young masterâs intrusion, his head spunâit was a mess while he tried to persuade Old Master Li, âOld Master Jue, the young master is just in a hurryâ¦â
Trying simultaneously to calm Li Beijue, âYoung Master, Old Master Jue didnât do anything to Miss Chi, he was just chatting with her. Please donât upset Old Master Jue.â
Chi Enen also hurriedly said on the side, âLi Beijue, itâs not what you think, you misunderstood.â
âIn a hurry? In a hurry for what? In his eyes, am I a devil such that heâs this anxious, barging in without a word?! Have him detained!â Old Master Liâs face showed no sign of improvement, it only darkened further.
Chi Enen had a bigger headache than anyone and quickly tugged at the arm of the man pulling her, whispering, âLi Beijue, apologize to Grandfather. Quickly.â
For godâs sake, apologize for what!
The noble man tightened his grip on her wrist, remained silent, and just pulled her along.
Old Master Li was originally just angry, but when he walked away, it turned into sheer fury, âButler! Are my words to be disregarded?â
The old butler dared not delay any longer. Despite his worries, he could only bow his head, âYes.â
He pressed something unbeknownst to anyone, and suddenly a siren-like ringtone echoed, followed by a dozen bodyguards making the corridor impenetrable.
âYoung Master, please return!â
âGet out of the way!â Li Beijue did not stop at all, pulling Chi Enen forward.
The bodyguards stood firm, not giving way, saying, âYoung Master, please return.â
âI told you to get out of the way!â Li Beijueâs falcon-like eyes seemed to flash with lightning, making oneâs heart tremble.
The bodyguards stood their ground with difficulty, âYoung Master, we must obey Old Master Jueâs orders, we hope you understand. Please return.â
Chi Enen didnât expect that a perfectly good conversation could turn into this, her headache splitting as she explained by his side, âLi Beijue, Grandfather really just wanted to chat with me, didnât do anything to me. We were having a great talk, really. You misunderstood, Iâ¦â
âWould the old man talk nicely with you? Wasnât he looking for you about the banquet?â Li Beijue simply didnât believe it.
Chi Enen was dumbfounded by the question, and then said, âIt was about that, but Iâ¦â
