“As her husband, you don’t even respect your wife’s wishes and just do as you please.” Li Beinian stood up straight and looked at Jiang Yeqing in annoyance. “This is called marital rape!”
Jiang Yeqing smiled. “I already said, it’s just fun between a couple. Am I right, dear?”
He smiled on the outside, but his eyes were swift and fierce.
He shot a few warning looks at Bo Chengcheng.
Bo Chengcheng stood up and frowned. “Nian Nian, don’t interfere. This is our private matter.”
Li Beinian furrowed her brows.
She heard her words very clearly.
Bo Chengcheng said, “He will get retribution.”
This did not seem like a normal thing a wife would say to her husband.
However, Bo Chengcheng immediately went to Jiang Yeqing’s side.
Jiang Yeqing casually held her in his arms.
Li Beinian noticed that Bo Chengcheng’s smile was a little stiff.
“Leader Mu, I didn’t expect to see you at this time.” Jiang Yeqing threw his cigarette butt on the ground and stamped on it. “What a coincidence. I was just about to look for you. How about we sit down and talk?”
Mu Xichen narrowed his eyes slightly. They were dark and as vast as the starry sky—deep, bright, and unpredictable.
“Sure.” His eyes fell on Li Beinian and he slowly said, “Apologize to her first.”
Without a doubt, this remark was made to Jiang Yeqing.
Dissatisfied, Jiang Yeqing stopped smiling and pointed at his already swollen face. “Are you going to apologize to me, then?”
“Well then, there’s no need to talk.” Mu Xichen looked at Li Beinian. “Let’s go.”
Li Beinian was a little annoyed. She glared at Jiang Yeqing and followed behind Mu Xichen.
However, Jiang Yeqing took out another cigarette, held it in his mouth, and lighted it.
He took a breath before looking at Mu Xichen.
He said, “Don’t think I don’t know. You haven’t settled the mess in Yanzhou yet. Give me the development rights of Jiangdu Waterfront. I will help you settle everything else.”
Li Beinian heard this and became quite muddle-headed.
Development rights of Jiangdu Waterfront?
Who was he talking to?
Just when she was thinking about it, her hand was held by someone.
Mu Xichen’s palm was slightly rough and warm.
He pulled her along as he walked.
“Mu Xichen.” Jiang Yeqing seemed a little annoyed. “You’re not in the military world anymore. I’m just calling you out of respect!”
Mu Xichen acted as if he did not hear anything and walked away.
Jiang Yeqing’s face darkened. He smashed the half-finished cigarette ferociously with his foot. “How could I have known that you were so tasteless? You interfered in another couple’s business and beat me up like this. You won’t even admit that you’ve just received a benefit!”
“Now you know.” Mu Xichen paused briefly without looking back. His voice was heard in the cloud of smoke. “Apologize.”
“You should know.” Jiang Yeqing squinted his eyes and confidently said, “Besides me, no one else can deal with the Yanzhou issue.”
“Apologize.” Mu Xichen only repeated the same word.
Li Beinian’s heart pounded.
“Forget it.” She pulled Mu Xichen’s sleeve and softly said, “I’m fine.”
Mu Xichen looked at her and slowly said, “He hit you.”
“He didn’t hit me…” Li Beinian felt a little embarrassed. She turned around and said, “Compared to me, I think the person he should apologize to is Sister Bo.”
Jiang Yeqing was slightly startled.
Immediately, he laughed out loud and turned sideways to look at Bo Chengcheng. “Babe, I didn’t expect you to make such a good friend.”
After that, he spread his arms open and said, “I was wrong. Sorry, babe. To show you how apologetic I am, you are welcomed to spend the night with me at home.”
