Chapter 640: Chapter 640: The Threat of Going with the Flow
The Bugatti roared and came to a stop at the villa entrance.
He got out of the car and didn’t pause for a second before bursting into the villa.
Old Master Li had just been having his breakfast when he saw him storm in, a hint of surprise flashed through his hale and hearty eyes, but he remained calm as the servant wiped the corner of his mouth. Putting down the towel, he glanced at him, “What is it?”
He cut right to the chase!
“You come early in the morning to find me just to ask this? When did you become so impatient?” Old Master Li was unruffled, having received the news of last night’s events that morning, not any earlier than Li Beijue, but seeing how quickly his grandson had come to him, he knew there had been a misunderstanding.
He did not spell it out, and instead took the opportunity to stand up indifferently and asked, “When are you planning to get engaged to Zhixuan?”
Li Beijue’s face turned ashen, enunciating each word, “Where is Chi Enen?”
Right now, he just wanted to know what had happened to that woman, whether she was fine, if she was hurt. What about the child in her stomach?
As for the others, to hell with them!
Old Master Li’s pupils narrowed, and his authoritative gaze swept over Beijue’s face. With the help of the old butler, he stood up, leaning on his Dragon Head Crutch, “Beijue, it seems you haven’t grasped the situation yet. Answer my question first. Then your own will be answered.”
Did this mean Chi Enen was in his hands?
Beijue’s pupil color deepened, until it was frozen over, his face contorted with extreme ugliness, each word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, “How is she? Is she in any danger?”
Old Master Li met his gaze, hesitated for a moment, and finally gave in slightly, replying, “Her condition depends on how you act next.”
That was an unmistakably clear threat!
Beijue’s pupils sank to their utmost depth, and in a rage so fierce he could almost kill! He clenched his fists at his side, and the wound on his back stretched open even more due to his sequence of actions. This time he hadn’t taken Flin-125, and every pang of pain caused the muscles in his back to twitch, even his temples throbbing. His handsome face was pale and tense, expressionlessly staring at Old Master Li, those midnight-black pupils seemed bottomless…
The Old Butler noticed the blood seeping out from his back and his expression changed. Forgetting about propriety, he opened his mouth, “Young Master, your wound…”
How could there be so much blood?
Did the Young Master not go to the hospital for treatment last night?
After being injured so badly yesterday, how was he able to get up from bed today and come to confront Old Master Jue at the villa?
This wasn’t a joke… it was risking his life!
Li Beijue, as if he couldn’t feel the pain or hear what others said, asked with an icy expression, “Is it true that as long as I agree to get engaged to Kim Zhixuan, you’ll ensure Chi Enen’s safety?”
Old Master Li furrowed his eyebrows slightly, undisturbed, “It depends on your performance.”
“I want a guarantee!” There seemed to be flames igniting in his eyes!
He didn’t want to hear uncertain answers, he wanted a guarantee, a promise!
A promise that the woman was safe in his hands; otherwise… Beijue’s pupils suddenly turned icy cold!
Old Master Li had never been pressed so aggressively in his lifetime. He locked eyes with Beijue for two seconds before turning his Dragon Head Crutch, “You know that if you do as I ask, I will ensure her safety.”
