e!Yet, the man's palm was powerfully clasping her waist, his lustful gaze seeming as though it could advance further at any moment.Luningxi's heart skipped a beat.Before she could even speak, Li Boche...After finishing everything, Li Bocen immediately drove back to the old Li family mansion.
Elder Li lay weakly in bed. Beside him, Mu Xiyin held a bowl of medicinal soup and was gently blowing it to cool down.
Li Bochen just stepped into the room and saw this scene, couldn't help but lock his brows, "Dad, what's going on How did you suddenly faint"
"Getting old, I'm not as good as I used to be. My head was spinning when I was looking at files today. Must have been from lack of sleep these past few days."
"Thankfully, Yinyin arrived in time and used first aid measures to help me recover. Otherwise, you little rascal might not have seen me again," Old Master Li sighed softly.
"Uncle Li, you're just not well-rested and dizzy. It's not that serious."
Mu Xi Yin's voice was as gentle as ever. She stood up and brought the now-cooled Chinese medicine to Li Bao Chen's face.
"Since Young Master Four is back, I'll head back to the hotel first. Let this medicine cool down a bit, then it'll be ready for the old master."
Li Boche didn't take the medicine bowl and his gaze passed through Mu Xiyin to look at the old man.
"Dad, I think I should still call Gu Ye over and let you have a look. Don't delay your treatment."
Mr. Li's weak eyes were full of meaning, "I'm much better now. It's late, don't let Little Gu run back and forth. Yinyin, you stay here tonight too, come and chat with me."
Li Bochen hesitated for a moment, but still walked over and sat down by the old man's bedside.
Mu Xiyin naturally wouldn't really leave. She obediently put down the medicine bowl and sat beside him.
I've heard about what happened at the jewelry exhibition today. Yinyin is truly multi-talented, I didn't expect her to be so skilled at jewelry design.
This compliment made Mu Xi's voice a little flustered, she gave Li Bochen a shy glance, "Uncle Li, you flatter me. I was able to win that competition, but it was thanks to Si Shao's help."
"This boy is so sentimental now" Lao Ye Li's aged eyes swept over Li Bochen, a smile that didn't reach his eyes.
"Miss Mu has just arrived in the capital. Although she's not as skilled as others, for your sake, Father, I wouldn't let her lose face in front of so many people."
Li Bochen leaned nonchalantly on the sofa, his long legs crossed, looking effortless and stylish.
Mu Xi's lips twitched, she gave an awkward smile. "That designer's skills are superb, I truly can't compare. But it's alright, I'll continue to improve."
When she mentioned the three words "designer," she deliberately looked at Li Boche, and sure enough, she saw a hint of irritability in his eyes.
Thinking about what Lu Ningxi had said today, Mu Xiyin couldn't help but clench her palms. However, she didn't expect that Li Bochen's next words would plunge her into despair.
"No matter how much you improve, you'll never reach her level. You might as well give up now."
Li Boche didn't even give Mu Xiyin a spare glance. He hadn't missed the way this woman had provoked the little rabbit today.
I was just angry seeing Lu Ningxi and Yu Chengnan together at the time, so I went along with her wishes.
Now that there was no one else around, there was no need to put on a good face for her.
"Lao Si! How can you speak like that!"
Mr. Li roared, "Little Yinyin is a legitimate Miss Mu, not some wild girl who specializes in messing with jewelry. This is already very good."
Li Boheng's face immediately darkened, "Since you're not specialized in jewelry design, why agree to a public competition Don't you know your own limitations"
"Lao Si!"
Seeing that Mr. Li was clearly getting angry, Li Bocen slowly got up and straightened the cuff on his chest. "Dad, if you have nothing else to say, I'll leave first. Gu Ye will come over tomorrow morning to take care of you, so get some rest."
Li Boche finished speaking and turned to leave. Just as he reached the villa door and was about to get in his car, Mu Xiyin caught up to him.
"Fourth Young Master, please wait a moment." Mu Xiyin stepped forward to block the car door. "There are some things I want to ask you."
Li Bocen's eyes darkened, a hint of impatience creeping into his voice. "What is it"
Mu Xi pressed her voice low and asked, "Does Grandfather know about you and Miss Luo already being married"
"She told you" Li Bochen was slightly taken aback.
Does this mean she's eating Mu Xi Yin's vinegar
Mu Xiyin nodded slightly, and then she found that Li Boche not only wasn't angry, but the corners of his lips even twitched upwards slightly, as if he was in a good mood
"Si Shao, you know the old master's temper. He hasn't been well lately, I think you should restrain yourself a bit..."
Li Bohen lazily scanned Mu Xiyin with his eyes, interrupting her. "My business with my wife is none of your concern. As for the old man... if you like to talk, just talk."
After finishing his words, he directly sat into the car, pressed the gas pedal and disappeared into the night.
Mu Xiyin was chilled by the cold wind and shivered. A flash of unwillingness crossed her gentle eyes., "… Don't play with me, okay You didn't hear how your dad scolded me. If you leave with me again, I'm afraid... the Li family will tear me down.""Don't worry, I've got you covered. Besides... baby, I...
