Hidden Marriage 99 Days: Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 60: I Won’t Bear Grudges

She did not expect to see Fang Zhili shake her head with a sullen expression.

Li Xueqing asked in disbelief, “How could that be?”

Li Beinian has already done such an outrageous thing and yet the Mu Family is not going to cancel the engagement?

Fang Zhili did not explain much. Instead, she turned to look at Li Xueqing and said sympathetically, “Oh dear, your face is all swollen. Your father was too forceful.”

Li Haoran followed closely behind and he immediately felt extremely sorry and guilty after hearing Fang Zhili’s words.

Li Xueqing glanced at Li Haoran aggrievedly.

Li Haoran stepped forth and asked, “Have you applied some ointment yet?”

“Yes.”

“I’m sorry, Xueqing. I hit you too hard. I was just too angry this afternoon. Niannian has just returned home and she may be rather insensible. Since you’re her sister, you ought to be nicer and more compromising towards her. Do you understand?”

Feeling like she had been treated unfairly, Li Xueqing nodded with pouted lips.

“Come to the study. I forgot to tell you this afternoon that there are changes to the commencement date for the filming of “The Legend Of The Dragon’s Pearl”.”

Upon hearing his words, Li Xueqing nodded smilingly with joy. “Okay!”

While answering, she turned around to glance at Li Beinian.

Li Beinian smirked mirthlessly when they made eye contact.

“Niannian, the filming for “The Legend Of The Dragon’s Pearl” where I’m starring as the main lead, is going to begin soon. Are you sure you don’t want to be my stunt double?”

Li Xueqing stared at Li Beinian “sincerely” with a smile.

Li Beinian stared at her with folded arms and asked, “You haven’t found one yet? Surely you can’t be waiting for me to agree?”

“Niannian, this is actually a good opportunity for you. I only have your best interests at heart,” Li Xueqing said with a look of innocence. “If you’re not interested, then forget it.”

“I’m not interested,” Li Beinian said without hesitation.

As soon as she finished speaking, she headed upstairs without even taking another look at Li Xueqing.

Li Xueqing gritted her teeth and clenched her fists angrily.

Li Haoran looked at Li Xueqing and tried to placate her feelings. “Niannian has to prepare for the university entrance exam. It’s very important to her. Since filming begins next month, it’s better for her not to take part.”

Li Xueqing nodded indignantly and conceded, “Alright.” She then turned to look at Li Beinian and said, “Niannian, I’m sorry. I didn’t know about this beforehand. You must press on.”

Li Beinian smirked after hearing her hypocritical comforting. She immediately turned around and said, “Yeah, thank you Xueqing. I’ll definitely work hard. I might just become your classmate.”

Li Xueqing was studying acting and performing arts in Guang City Theatrics Academy.

Not expecting Li Beinian to react that way, Li Xueqing felt a little uncomfortable and smiled wryly. “I’ll follow father upstairs then.”

“Okay, go ahead.” Li Beinian’s grin seemed to have blinded Li Xueqing’s eyes. She continued, “I won’t bear a grudge against you for what happened this afternoon. I’m genuinely giving you my well wishes. Xueqing, all the best!”

Li Xueqing flew into a rage after hearing her “sincere” words.

Who is she to bear grudges?

I was the one who got shortchanged!

Li Xueqing was so angry that she could not smile anymore. She stared at Li Beinian and gritted her teeth angrily while Li Beinian walked past her.

Li Xueqing turned around to see that Li Haoran was appearing rather heartened.

Upon arriving at the study, Li Haoran said, “Niannian may be insensible at times and she’s also very straightforward. She has a simple mind.”

Li Xueqing barked in exasperation, “Her mind is not simple at all!”
