Chapter 379: Consider an Important Event in Your Life: Marriage
Li Xueqing did not expect him to ask this question. She blushed and lowered her head in embarra.s.sment. “Uncle…”
Mu Che laughed. “Why are you so shy? You’re already an adult. Your younger sister is getting engaged before you, so you should seriously consider it too.”
Li Xueqing was elated but quickly said, “Leader Mu doesn’t think highly of me.”
“That’s rubbish.” Mu Che insisted. “Our Xichen is quieter, more down-to-earth, and rarely interacts with girls. If you talk to him more, he will slowly grow feelings for you.”
Li Xueqing was even more embarra.s.sed and nervously asked, “Uncle, are you speaking the truth?”
The girl could not conceal her desires.
Mu Che laughed harder. “Of course. When I get back home, I will arrange a time for you to chat with each other.”
Li Xueqing nodded shyly. “Thank you, uncle.”
With Mu Che’s support, Li Beinian and Mu Donglin’s engagement and the ruining of Li Beinian’s reputation, there was no way Mu Xichen wouldn’t fall for her.
When the time came, it would be like Lin Kerou said.
Regardless of whether it was the entertainment circle, her home, or the Mu Family, her position would be unshakable!
Li Xueqing seemed to have foreseen her bright future and smiled even more brightly.
Noticing that Li Beinian had separated from Mu Donglin, she excused herself and walked in her direction.
After taking two gla.s.ses of champagne from the table, Li Xueqing looked around to make sure no one saw her and quietly threw the pill into the gla.s.s.
Ping!
It quietly dropped into the gla.s.s and immediately vanished.
She had one gla.s.s in both of her hands and the one in her left hand was laced with a drug.
Li Beinian walked calmly towards Li Beinian and said, “Don’t drink too much. Champagne has a lower alcohol concentration.”
As she spoke, she handed the gla.s.s in her left hand to her.
Li Beinian glanced at her and placed her gla.s.s of red wine down. “Thank you.”
Li Beinian was particularly beautiful today. She looked luxurious and elegant like a queen.
There was an indescribable elegance with every smile and move she made.
Li Xueqing was crazy jealous in her heart!
Suppressing the jealousy in her heart, Li Xueqing smiled and clinked her gla.s.s with hers. “Cheers.”
However, Li Beinian did not drink. She stared at the top of her head and said with a startled voice, “What is this?”
She reached out and touched her head. Li Xueqing only felt that her scalp was being torn and frowned impatiently. “What are you doing?!”
“I’m trying to help you get rid of something.” Li Beinian shoved the wine gla.s.s in her hand and said, “Help me hold this. This is not an easy task.”
The champagne gla.s.s hand rest was very thin and small.
Li Xueqing had no problem holding two in one hand. When Li Beinian shoved it in her hand, she instinctively caught hold of it.
However, when she realized what happened, her vision was already blocked and she could not remember which one was hers and which one was Li Beinian’s.
Li Xueqing panicked and pushed Li Beinian away.
Li Beinian removed a small item from her head and said, “I don’t know who mischievously put something on your head. The person is too childish.”
While saying that, she looked at her deeply.
It was a tiny and discreet item.
A wiretap.
Li Beinian immediately recognized it and her heart sank briefly.
Just when Li Xueqing was about to look at it, she closed the palm of her hand and changed the subject. “Give me back the gla.s.s of champagne.”
