Chapter 577: A Gift for Another Man
She made no mention of the conflict between Li Beinian and Li Xueqing, and instead, criticized Li Beinian from another perspective.
Li Haoran had to admit, every word that came out of her mouth was enough to stab him in the heart.
Li Haoran’s heart ached as he looked at his daughter. He never expected Li Beinian to be so estranged from him.
This daughter of his seemed to be covered in thorns that could p.r.i.c.k and hurt him.
Li Haoran looked at Old Master Li, then at Li Beinian. Finally, he closed his eyes in exhaustion and said, “Nian Nian, today is Dad’s birthday. You should at least stay for a meal.”
“Dad!” Li Xueqing cried out unwillingly. “My head is swollen, it hurts!”
Feeling indignant, Fang Zhili added, “Hubby…”
“Xueqing was asking for it.” Li Haoran gave her a warning look. “Who taught you to take someone else’s belongings without asking the owner’s permission? Not to mention Nian Nian, even I would be angry.”
Li Xueqing felt even more aggrieved. She pursed her lips and cried. “Are we just going to let it go?”
“You know very well whether I pushed you or not.” Li Beinian turned around and looked at Li Xueqing coldly. “My clothes have been ripped by you. Are you going to a.s.sume responsibility?”
“I didn’t!” Li Xueqing denied. “I was just curious. Who knew you’d be so petty? Besides, I also thought that you were giving this to Dad. I didn’t expect it wasn’t…”
The fact was that it was a man’s suit.
Li Xueqing was certain!
Since it wasn’t for Li Haoran, it must be for another man.
Another man… it must be for the boss of Sheng An!
As though she had caught onto something important, Li Xueqing looked at Li Beinian with a strange expression.
However, when she saw Li Beinian’s calm expression, a chill ran down her spine.
She decided to keep her mouth shut.
Li Beinian was pulled along into the villa by Old Master Li and no one spoke further regarding this whole matter.
Li Haoran quickly followed behind them, leaving Li Xueqing and Fang Zhili outside.
Li Xueqing felt extremely aggrieved and stared at her mother with bloodshot eyes. “Mom, are we just going to let this go? My head is so swollen!”
Fang Zhili was reluctant, of course.
But she sighed and replied, “It’s a good thing you didn’t pursue it. This Li Beinian may look impetuous, but in reality, she knew that your father would give in. She deliberately said these words because the Old Master is around.”
Li Xueqing was indignant. “What’s so great about her? Is the old man blind? Why does he have to dote on her? It’s not like he doesn’t have other granddaughters. Even if he doted on Li Meng, Li Ying and Li Kun, I’m fine with that. But why does it have to be Li Beinian!”
“Alright already. Go get changed first. Eldest Young Master Mu will be arriving soon. Even if he only has eyes for that little b.i.t.c.h, you have to dress up nicely.”
Li Xueqing was even more indignant. “Mu Donglin is also blind. What did Li Beinian drug these men with?”
“You can only blame yourself for not being as coquettish as her, being able to seduce any man she wishes.” Fang Zhili was also annoyed, but she quickly calmed down. “I’ve already asked around and it has been confirmed. The people who will lead the training of the ‘Stinging Vine’ cast is a retired team from the special forces. There will only be one Swift Eagle in the entire team. This time, Chief Mu will definitely be there too. When the time comes, you’d better seize the opportunity and work harder!”
Hearing this, Li Xueqing almost jumped with joy.
She immediately hugged Fang Zhili and said coquettishly, “Mommy, you’re the best!”
