Chapter 99: I’ll Pretend I Never Heard What Was Just Said
Translator: 549690339 |
Their commotion was so loud that everyone heard it.
Huo Yi was the first to rush over. Seeing the two with one’s hand bleeding and the other’s face pale, he was stunned for a moment. What happened to Master Jue and Miss Chi? Although he couldn’t figure out what exactly had occurred between them, as a butler, he quickly found some iodine gauze and ran over.
“Master Jue, please stretch out your hand. I’ll treat your wound.”
Li Beijue was still immersed in the action of Chi Enen dodging him just now, distracted and not hearing a word Huo Yi said. His falcon-like eyes focused intently on Chi Enen, the muscles on his cheeks tensed as if it took all his strength to control himself, “I’ll pretend I didn’t hear what you said just now, and you can act like you never said it. Let’s go, I’ll take you back to the Hospital.”
Chi Enen looked at him in astonishment, her mouth slightly open.
She thought for sure Li Beijue would continue to lose his temper, at least not let her off so easily. Unexpectedly, he had actually suggested pretending as if the incident had never happened.
She knew all too well that this was his final concession. But she had just mustered up her courage, and if she couldn’t make things clear this time, she didn’t know if she would ever have the courage to face his anger again.
In her eyes, if someone was good to her, she should reciprocate that kindness. But she couldn’t repay Li Beijue’s kindness.
Previously when he was ‘good’ to her, it was just treating her as a pet or possession, which she could willingly accept. Now it was different, his kindness came from affection. If she couldn’t return that affection, she shouldn’t enjoy this special treatment. Otherwise, how would she be any different from a green tea bitch playing with someone else’s feelings?
Chi Enen bit her lower lip, ignoring the suggestive look from Huo Yi, and blurted out, “I’m sorry, I can’t pretend I never said it.”
What on earth did Miss Chi say to Master Jue that made him so outraged? Weren’t they fine just before?
Huo Yi didn’t want the two to quarrel, knowing that only Miss Chi would be at a disadvantage. He looked at Chi Enen anxiously and persuaded, “Miss Chi, I don’t know what has happened to make you so angry. But Master Jue has no malice towards you, he genuinely cherishes you. Could you, for his birthday today, not hold it against him, please?”
“HuoYi!” LiBeijue snapped, “Shut up!”
He didn’t need Huo Yi to grovel on his behalf.
“Master Jue…” Huo Yi was anxious inside.
Li Beijue’s face turned an ugly shade, his teeth clenched as he reminded him, “Don’t forget your place.” He certainly didn’t need to bend over backward for a woman!
Huo Yi stiffened, realizing he had overstepped. He concealed the worried expression on his face, stood aside properly, and bowed in apology, “Sorry, Master Jue, I lost my composure.”
Chi Enen didn’t want him to vent his anger on the innocent, and said through gritted teeth, “This has nothing to do with Butler Huo; if you want to lose your temper, take it out on me. Li Beijue, it’s because I don’t like you and I don’t want to stay by your side anymore!”
Huo Yi suddenly looked up at her, completely shocked!
What did Miss Chi say?
She doesn’t like Master Jue and doesn’t want to stay by his side?
He instinctively turned his gaze to the man beside him, and when he saw the veins throbbing on his forehead, his heart also pounded violently!
He grew up with Master Jue and it was the first time he had seen him show such an awful expression. Usually, when he got angry, he could throw things at people, but this time he was so angry; how could Miss Chi, so frail and delicate, endure it?
Although Huo Yi had a good impression of Chi Enen, he couldn’t help feeling some resentment towards her now.
He couldn’t fathom what had happened between the two, but Master Jue had never cared about a girl so much before. Hearing Miss Chi say such things, how heartbroken he must be!
