Chapter 837 - Mu Donglin’s Phone CallChapter 837: Mu Donglin’s Phone Call
As Li Beinian said this, she couldn’t help looking around furtively.
She only dared to say it after making sure that no one else was around. And even then, she said it in a lowered voice.
Mu Xichen looked at the tips of her ears that had turned slightly red and couldn’t help laughing. As though coaxing a child, he said most agreeably, “I have to behave myself then.”
His attitude suddenly made Li Beinian feel that her dignity had been challenged. She straightened her posture and said fiercely, “If you were to do anything terrible behind my back, I shall not bear any children for you!”
“How do you define terrible?”
“For example, what happened previously!” The memory of it still made Li Beinian shudder in fear. “Anyway, whatever you do, let me know, and let me know that you’re safe, alright? You really scared me the last time...”
Mu Xichen cupped her cheeks in his hands and said gently, “No, I promise.”
“You’ve made empty promises so many times they don’t mean anything. You said the same thing the last time!” Li Beinian slapped his hands away angrily. “I’ll put this matter aside for now. If you kill yourself doing something dangerous, I’ll never ever forgive you!”
“No, I won’t,” Mu Xichen promised earnestly. “I’ll obey my wife.”
Strangely, even though Mu Xichen was on his best behavior, Li Beinian felt inexplicably angry.
She glared at him, then turned around angrily and stomped away.
Even Li Beinian herself had no idea why she felt this angry as she headed back towards the house.
Then, as if something had come to mind suddenly, she spun around at the same time saying, “Oh right, Uncle Mu called me many times today and asked us... Ouch!”
She had walked right into his arm.
Mu Xichen was tall and muscular.
Li Beinian’s nose was almost knocked crooked from the impact.
She immediately pinched her nose as she looked at him with teary eyes. Reaching out angrily to hit him, she hollered, “Why are you walking so close behind for no reason!”
Mu Xichen felt rather indignant, but when he saw her pinching her nose, he found himself bursting out in laughter.
Smiling helplessly, he reach out to hold her face. “Let me take a look.”
Two little tear drops rolled down from the corners of her eyes as she removed her hand.
Yes, it appeared a little red.
Mu Xichen poked it and asked, “Does it hurt?”
Li Beinian slapped his hand away angrily and said, “It’s not funny!”
The man’s smile vanished immediately.
Li Beinian rubbed her nose gently. The pain quickly passed and she continued, “What was I just saying?”
“You had a call from the Mu Family.” Mu Xichen studied her delicate little nose carefully. After ensuring that it was fine, he continued, “Ignore them. We’ll get by.”
“I thought so too, but...”
Before she could finish, Li Beinian’s cell phone went off.
She took out the phone and glanced at the screen.
The string of numbers belonged to the Mu family.
She waved her phone in front of Mu Xichen and said, “Here we go again.”
Mu Xichen saw the string of numbers and reached out for the phone. Putting his arm around Li Beinian, he said, “Let’s go back into the house first.”
“Okay.” Li Beinian understood.
It was the New Year, and the Mo family residence was filled with many elders.
If she were to get into an argument with the person on the other end of the line, it would look really bad.
Mu Xichen did not pick up the call, and allowed it to ring out. By the time a second call attempt came in, the couple were back in their house.
Li Beinian picked up the call. “Hello.”
“Nian Nian.”
His voice was cold, but pleasant and steady.
It was Mu Donglin.
