Madam Li’s Identity Is Exposed Again!

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. Once she was sure her emotions had cooled, she continued to look into the man’s eyes and said, “Are you planning to fight Li Beijue for her?”
What was he thinking?
Is it worth it?
“That’s my business.” Xi Zelie averted his eyes, avoiding her questioning gaze, and said blandly.
Kim Zhiyuan was hurt deeply by his words “my business.” She used all her strength to restrain herself and bitterly lifted her red lips, “Why should I help you? I like you, you like someone else. Now you’re asking me to help someone who could be considered my love rival, why should I help?”
Why should she?
Why should she help?
Xi Zelie seemed to anticipate her saying this. His peach blossom pupils didn’t show a hint of disturbance, and he lightly touched his rosy thin lips, “I said you can choose whether to help after hearing it out. If you don’t want to, then forget it.”
Kim Zhiyuan felt as if she had hit cotton with her fist. Her heart ached as though she had a terminal illness. Suddenly, she spoke, “I can help you, but there’s one condition.”
“What condition?”
She took a deep breath, “Go on a date with me.”
“…” Xi Zelie furrowed his eyebrows.
Kim Zhiyuan looked at him provocatively and said, “From now, after finishing this coffee, let’s go on a date, just for today. If you fulfill this wish of mine, I will help her without breaking my word! How about it?”
Kim Zhiyuan could afford to love, she could afford to lose.
If she didn’t like someone, she would openly show her dislike and not resort to underhanded tactics.
So, as long as he fulfilled her wish, she would help! It was not just a lip service agreement to help but a genuine assistance.
Xi Zelie looked deeply at her and agreed, “Okay.”
Even though he agreed, Kim Zhiyuan still felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart.
Just then, the waiter brought over the cappuccino. Kim Zhiyuan casually took a sip or two, then put down the coffee cup, “Let’s go, I want to go shopping.”
Xi Zelie didn’t like crowded places, but he still stood up.
Kim Zhiyuan picked up her bag, walked ahead, while he maintained a step’s distance.
Just as they were about to leave the cafe, Kim Zhiyuan, who was walking a little ahead, suddenly stopped. As he reached her side, she linked her arm with his and preemptively said, “For this day, you’re my boyfriend, so it’s not too much to walk holding my boyfriend’s arm, right?”
Xi Zelie’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. In the end, he said nothing and let her lead him out.
The café waiters watched them leave, then gathered to gossip, “Xiao Qing, didn’t you say they’re not a couple? They’re obviously linking arms like a couple. You must have been dazed because a handsome man handed you a lemonade.”
The doubted female waitress blushed and argued, “I didn’t! It’s true. I just heard that beauty questioning the handsome guy if he had someone he likes and stuff. If it weren’t for that, I wouldn’t have spilled the coffee and burned my hand. I’m telling the truth.”
“Alright, alright, we believe you. It’s strange then, if they’re not a couple, why are they so close?”
“The world of rich people is really hard to understand. You get used to it after seeing so much. Just let it be.”
“True. Anyway, we got to admire the handsome guy.”
