Chapter 573: Separating Us

Immediately, Li Beinian understood what he meant.

She subconsciously looked up at Mu Xichen and chuckled.

That explained Mu Xichen’s strange expression.

Feigning ignorance, the girl asked, “So?”

How could Li Haoran not know that Li Beinian was pretending? He continued, “Donglin is true to you. In what ways is the Mu Family not worthy of you?”

“Given the Mu Family’s background, what exactly isn’t good enough for you?” Li Beinian smiled, but it was hard to miss the hint of iciness in her voice. “Since you like to be associated with Mu Donglin so much, why don’t you undergo a gender change so that you can marry him?”

Li Haoran shook with anger and hollered. “You little bastard! I’m your father, how dare you speak to me like that!”

“You do realize you’re my father?” Li Beinian sneered. “No apologies, I’ve always been like this. If you don’t like to hear these things, don’t call me. This way, you don’t disgust others and yourself.”

Li Haoran was about to speak again, however Li Beinian refused to entertain him further. “I’m watching TV. Got to go.”

Having said that, she hung up.

Looking up at Mu Xichen again, she noticed that his gaze was even more unfathomable now.

She was annoyed and nudged him, “What’s that expression?”

Mu Xichen sat her up and held her firmly in his arms.

The two of them were already in an intimate position, and now that they were in a different position, it was even more intimate.

Li Beinian could feel the warmth of his body through the thin fabric of her garment as she pressed up against him.

She could even feel his heartbeat.

Her heart skipped a beat as she leaned back, her nose touching his chin.

“He might have something else to tell you.” Mu Xichen’s voice was faint and there was a slight reverberation in his chest when he spoke.

Li Beinian snorted. “It’s nothing good anyway.”

Just as she said this, her cell phone rang again.

Li Beinian glanced at it. Indeed, it was Li Haoran calling a second time.

Just as she was about to disconnect the call, a hand stopped her.

Appearing rather interested, Mu Xichen said, “Take it.”

Li Beinian eyed him suspiciously and asked, “What are you up to?”

The man did not answer, but swiped his finger across the screen to connect the call.

Li Beinian had no choice but to turn on the speaker. “What now?”

“Nian Nian!” Li Haoran exclaimed again. “Like it or not, I’m your father. You can’t sever the blood ties between father and daughter. Blood is thicker than water, Nian Nian, I won’t do anything to harm you.”

“Haha.”

Li Beinian was most tempted to be sarcastic and tell him how awesome he was.

He kept saying that it was for her own good, but the fact of the matter was, he just couldn’t bear to let go of the association with the Mu Corporation.

The only response that he got from Li Beinian was a sneer. The conversation became uncomfortable.

Li Haoran’s expression grew sullen and he said, “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re relying on. That lousy Sheng An Corporation would have closed down long ago, if Mu Donglin had made a move.”

He didn’t say it explicitly, but it was undoubtedly a warning and condemnation, based on the rumors that she was the kept mistress of the CEO of Sheng An.

Deep down, he actually believed those rumors.

Li Beinian felt an inexplicable ache in her heart.

Although she claimed that she had little to do with Li Haoran, ultimately, he was her father.

Besides Old Master Li, he was her closest blood relation.

But now, what had become of his opinion of her?

At these words, Mu Xichen felt his heart turn cold too, as he held her in his arms.

Especially when he saw the disappointment in her eyes, his impression of this father-in-law couldn’t get any worse.

He silently caressed Li Beinian’s hand. She smiled faintly and said to the person at the other end of the line, “So I owe you my gratitude?”

“Owe me? You should owe Donglin!” Li Haoran was furious. “Now that Donglin is getting engaged to that girl from the Lin family. To be fair, he has always treated you well and has never forgotten you. Choosing Donglin would surely be a much better bargain than if you choose that man from Sheng An.”

Li Haoran did not give Li Beinian a chance to interject at all. He continued, “Nian Nian, you’re already 20 years old. You should learn to be more sensible. Donglin is a winner in every way. If you turn back now, it’s not too late. However, if Donglin gets married to that woman from the Lin Family, it’ll be too late.”

“I’ve already said it, you have to weigh the pros and cons yourself!” Li Haoran insisted forcefully.

Li Beinian sneered. “Thank you for your trouble then.”

Li Haoran felt a headache coming on. He sighed and said, “Dad is doing this for your own good. Why don’t you understand!”

“Are you done?” Li Beinian didn’t wish to continue. “If you’re done, I’m hanging up.”

Li Haoran did not expect Li Beinian to be so resolute. He sighed and said, “If you don’t have any jobs lined up these few days, you should come back. Coincidentally, your grandpa is here too. Let’s have a good meal together, alright?”

As he said those last words, his voice had softened significantly.

After a pause, he added, “This is also what your grandpa wishes.”

Li Beinian twitched her lips and hung up without another word.

After hanging up, she felt a little gloomy and lost the desire to continue watching the movie.

Mu Xichen tossed the cell phone aside.

Laughing, Li Beinian said, “His love for Mu Donglin is true.”

Feeling rather jealous among a complexity of other emotions, he asked, “Will you change your mind?”

“A good horse doesn’t turn back to graze an old pasture.” Li Beinian snuggled up against his chest and mumbled. “Besides, that pasture has been trampled on by others. I despise it.”

Mu Xichen snorted. “So what if it had been trampled on?”

Li Beinian looked up and studied his smooth jawline. “Have you forgotten that I was the one who set it up to be trampled on? What are you jealous over?”

Mu Xichen glanced at her. “Would I be jealous?”

“Uh huh!” Li Beinian nodded seriously.

Not only would he be jealous, he was quite often jealous.

Mu Xichen did not say anything. He turned her face around and kissed her.

Immediately, his body told her if he was indeed jealous.

Conscious that they were in the living room, she couldn’t get over her shyness. She gave him a nudge and urged him, “Let’s go back to our room!”

“We’re at home, what’s there to be afraid of?” Mu Xichen grabbed her pants and hugged her from behind. He whispered in her ear, “The door is locked. No one can get in except us.”

Even so, Li Beinian still felt extremely awkward.

The living room was too spacious and the surroundings seemed too empty.

If they were to frolic on the sofa, there would be echoes.

As she refused to have her clothes removed, Mu Xichen had no choice but to give in.

As a result, while their tops were neat and intact, their lower bodies were like bursting dams.

However, halfway through, the cell phone on the other end of the sofa rang.

Li Beinian heard it ringing and gave him a tap. “The cell phone…”

Mu Xichen refused to let her go. Instead, it seemed only to spur him on. He entered her aggressively.

Li Beinian was caught off guard and called out loudly, but very quickly, she held back.

He inserted his finger in her mouth and took her earlobe between his lips. Breathing heavily, he commanded her, “Scream.”

Li Beinian turned away shyly and bit down on his finger.

As though he didn’t feel any pain, the man inserted another finger into her mouth. Sucking on her earlobe, he said in a muffled voice, sending puffs of hot and wet breaths into her ear, “Scream.”

At the same time, he went in forcefully and deeply, causing Li Beinian to moan and tear up.

The cell phone continued ringing. It rang out once, twice, and finally, Mu Xichen was at his wit’s end because of Li Beinian’s urging. He paused and walked over to take a look at the incoming call screen.

The word “grandpa” caused the both of them to tense up.

When it rang again, Mu Xichen turned off the cell phone and tossed it aside. Then he turned around and pinned her down on the coffee table, satisfying his voracious appetite.

Would she have been able to continue after she had taken this call?

What a joke!

Hence, the battle continued for another ten minutes before coming to an end.

Once Li Beinian had managed to calm herself down somewhat, she picked up the cell phone and dialed her grandfather’s number.

Old Master Li picked it up very quickly. Li Beinian cleared her throat and greeted him. “Grandpa.”

Old Master Li snorted. “What were you doing? You didn’t answer my calls.”

“I was busy.” Li Beinian blushed as she reached out to gather her clothes. Deliberately changing the topic, she asked the old man, “Why aren’t you asleep yet?”

“Sleep? What time do you call this?” Old Master Li snorted.

Li Beinian looked at the time. Indeed, it was not even 9 pm.

The Beast behind her took her into his arms again. Li Beinian reacted quickly and reached out to shove him off.

However, worried that her grandfather would discover that they were together, she did not dare to make a noise.

As a result, The Beast pulled her onto his lap and after a moment started to grope restlessly again.

“I thought it was late. I was busy and lost track of time.” Li Beinian gave the man a look and shoved him off again. “Grandpa, if there’s nothing else, I’ll call you back later.”

“Are you with him?” Old Master Li snorted. “Don’t think I’m not aware that you don’t have much work recently!”

Li Beinian froze for a moment. Mu Xichen held her firmly in his arms and sandwiched her thighs firmly between his own, as though worried that she might run away.

She immediately retorted. “Who said that? Ptui, what a lie!”

“Your father said it!” Old Master Li demanded, “Come home tomorrow. Your father’s birthday is around the corner. We’ll have a meal together.”

On hearing about Li Haoran, Li Beinian lost interest and said, “He only just called me, asking me to go back to Mu Donglin.”

Old Master Li’s emotions were rather complex. He said, “Your father doesn’t know about your relationship with Xichen. He wants you to choose Donglin for your own good. After all, the Mu Corporation alone has a reputation to be reckoned with.”

He said this even though knowing what Li Haoran was up to.

However, one had to admit that if Mu Xichen weren’t in the picture, it would have been a wise decision to choose Mu Donglin.

Alas, she was now with Mu Xichen.

In terms of character and temperament, Mu Xichen didn’t fare too badly.

It was just that Li Beinian didn’t want to say it aloud, young girls were fascinated by him.

Even Grandpa himself was satisfied with the man.

Besides, compared to Mu Donglin, Mu Xichen was more concerned and attentive towards Li Beinian, his feelings for her were more sincere. This was a fact.

“If your father had known that you’re with Xichen, he’d definitely be supportive.”

Li Beinian laughed upon hearing these words and said, “Grandpa, you don’t understand your son at all.”

Or should she say, he didn’t understand Fang Zhili and Li Xueqing at all.

Supportive?

No way!

Li Beinian knew very well that Li Xueqing liked Mu Xichen.

If they were to find out, the situation would turn troublesome.

Old Master Li did not deny it. He continued, “In any case, come back to Qian Zhou tomorrow. Hmph, you’ve grown too bold, lying to your Grandpa. From now on, send me a copy of your work schedule!”

Li Beinian blinked.

She turned around and noticed that Mu Xichen’s expression had darkened.

Mu Xichen spoke, “Grandpa.”

When Old Master Li heard Mu Xichen’s voice, he said with an air of knowing, “Indeed, you’re together. All of you treat me like I’m old and confused.”

Li Beinian immediately felt guilt-stricken.

Mu Xichen said calmly, “Others may not know, but you know that we’re married. There’s no reason for us to keep living separately.”

“When did you get married?” Old Master Li feigned ignorance. “Firstly, there were no formalities. Secondly, you got married in secret. If my granddaughter were to live with you, how would that come across?”

“Grandpa, you were the one who sold me out at that time. Why are you going back on your word now?” Li Beinian said. “What’s done is done. As a couple now, we have to cultivate our relationship.”

“Hmph!” Old Master Li voiced his displeasure. “You have no shame, talking about cultivating a couple’s relationship. We can talk about a couple’s relationship when all the formalities are in place.”

Mu Xichen tried to get a word in, “Grandpa…”

“Say no more. I don’t wish to hear what you have to say.” Old Master Li interrupted him. “Nian Nian, remember to come home tomorrow. Xichen, on the other hand, won’t be needed. You’re not our official son-in-law yet. You can come when your relationship is official. Nian Nian, remember. Tomorrow.”

Having said those words, Old Master Li hung up.

Mu Xichen’s face was as dark as stormy skies, at the same time it was icy. Obviously he wasn’t someone to be trifled with.

Li Beinian couldn’t help laughing aloud. She reminded him, “Grandpa said you have no official status.”

Mu Xichen’s face darkened further as she gloated. He grabbed her and pushed her onto the sofa. “You’re that happy huh?”

His voice was deep and sinister.

Li Beinian immediately kept quiet and shook her head honestly. Then, she said with an angry expression, “Grandpa is too much, separating us and not giving us the opportunity to cultivate our relationship!”

Even as she said those words, she couldn’t hide the twinkle in her eyes.

Mu Xichen replied in a hoarse and dangerous voice, “You’re asking to be punished.”

He’d already moved in on her, even as he was speaking.

Li Beinian didn’t have time to react. Before she knew it, another storm had swept in.
