There was a silent pause.
Bo Chengcheng seemed to be hesitating.
Li Beinian took the opportunity to add, “It’s rare for us to get together. Come on.”
The woman finally relented, “Alright then.”
Li Beinian was now a little excited.
She was very fond of Bo Chengcheng.
The woman was mature, a little bossy perhaps but it didn’t make her any less charming and attractive.
She was the sort of woman that Li Beinian had always dreamed of becoming.
Normally, everyone was busy with work and rarely got together.
Now that there was a chance, of course they had to make good use of it.
Li Beinian happily put on her jacket and picked up her handbag. Then, she dialed Cheng Su’s number.
Cheng Su had always idolized Li Beinian so it didn’t take more than a moment for her to agree.
However, Li Beinian thought about it and still felt that there were too few girls.
Hence, she called Mo Shengyun.
New Year’s Eve was in two days, Mo Shengyun would most definitely be returning to the Mo Family home.
Gu Mingye and Mu Xichen, on the other hand, had grown up in the Mo Family. Naturally, they would be heading back there.
As for Li Beinian, needless to say, she would go where her husband went.
There was room for four of them in the car.
When she called Mo Shengyun, the latter was working overtime in the hospital.
She hesitated upon Li Beinian’s invitation and asked, “Is Ah Ye going?”
“Yes, he is.”
Mo Shengyun paused and said, “I guess I’d better not go then.”
“Why?” Li Beinian was surprised and probed. “Did you have an argument with Ah Ye?”
“No.” Mo Shengyun denied it without giving it a thought. However, she quickly changed the topic and added, “I might not be able to go home tomorrow. You and Brother Xichen go ahead, I have to work overtime in the hospital.”
“Is it that busy in the hospital?”
“Yes, there are always unexpected cases near the end of the year. I work in the emergency room, and have to be on standby, so I can’t join you tonight.”
Since this was the case, there was little else Li Beinian could say. “Alright then, let’s meet the next time.”
After hanging up, Mo Shengyun felt a little lost.
She hadn’t seen him in a long time.
She missed him.
By the time Li Beinian came out all dressed and ready, Mu Xichen was on the phone.
He turned around and smiled faintly when he noticed her outfit.
“Okay, I’ll be there soon. I’m hanging up.”
Mu Xichen disconnected the call as Li Beinian ran towards him in her high heels. Then slipping her arm around his, she said, “Let’s go.”
“A new color code.” Mu Xichen remarked, pinching her chin as he leaned in to kiss her.
Li Beinian smiled. “Isn’t it pretty?”
“Beautiful.” Mu Xichen held her waist and lowered his head to kiss her more deeply. “Why not, let’s stay home?”
“No! Why don’t you want to go?” Li Beinian immediately protested. “I’ve already called Sister Bo and Su Su. We have to go.”
“Then wipe your lipstick off first.” Mu Xichen caressed her lips and whispered, “It’s too beautiful. I can’t resist.”
Li Beinian blushed and poked at his stomach. “You’re so indecent. It’s just lipstick!”
Mu Xichen grabbed her fingers and whispered, “Keep still.”
“I’ll won’t, I’m not going to!” Li Beinian furiously poked at his stomach a few more times. His tone abs caused her fingertips to hurt. “You’ve ruined my lipstick!”
Mu Xichen took a shallow breath and held her in his arms. He whispered, “We won’t be able to leave if you keep moving.”
Li Beinian blinked. Before she could react, Mu Xichen moved her hand downwards and said faintly, “I’m hard.”
