Li Beinian froze when she heard the ringtone.
Besides Mu Xichen, no one else would be calling her at this time!
Her heartbeat quickened. Indeed, she saw the unpredictable change in the expression on Mu Donglin’s face.
Mu Donglin looked at her and said unhurriedly, “Ah Chen?”
Li Beinian felt a chill down her spine. Within just a few seconds, she had broken out in cold sweat.
Mu Donglin shifted his gaze and his eyes now fell on her. “It appears that you two are very close?”
Li Beinian looked back at him, speechless. Her heart was pounding.
What was he going to do?
Because she was close to Mu Xichen… he wanted to hurt her and humiliate her all the more?
At this point, Li Beinian’s heart was filled with uncertainty and fear.
“What are you afraid of?” Mu Donglin looked at her indifferently and coldly. He could clearly sense her stiffness and it only made him turn even icier. “Are you afraid that I’ll take the call?”
As he spoke, Mu Donglin looked at the flashing name on the phone.
He disgusted her!
“Why do you address him in such an intimate way?” Mu Donglin stroked her cheek and spoke slowly, “Have you… slept together?”
The light in her eyes quivered. She quickly calmed herself down and raised her voice coldly, “It’s just a form of address. I can very well address you as Ah Lin, what’s the big deal!”
Mu Donglin gritted his teeth and pinched her jaw. “Stop freaking pretending in front of me. Do you think I have no idea?”
Pinching her face forcefully with his large hand, his nails sunk into the fair skin of her cheeks.
The pain stung her.
Li Beinian creased her brow as Mu Donglin shouted through gritted teeth, “He puts up a hostile protest even when his biological father calls him Ah Chen. If you weren’t his woman, would he have let you address him that way? Huh?”
As he spoke, his grip tightened, almost crushing her.
“From a young age, he’d only let that bloody old man address him that way. Who do you think you are?” As Mu Donglin spoke, he suppressed his words with more force and grabbed her shirt. “You pretend to be a chaste woman in front of me, but when you’re with him, you’d let him do whatever he wants, isn’t that so?”
Li Beinian screamed. “Mu Donglin, you’re crazy! Help!”
Mu Donglin was indeed crazy!
The thought of her behaving in this manner in front of him, but turning coquettish with Mu Xichen, infuriated him.
“What does he do with you?” Mu Donglin reached out and pulled her shirt apart. “This?”
He grabbed Li Beinian’s tight little dress and groped her through the fabric.
She felt the shame of being violated more strongly than ever.
Li Beinian struggled even harder and shouted with every ounce of energy she had, “Li Xueqing! Damn you, Li Xueqing! Grandpa… mmmph…”
Mu Donglin’s expression was dark like an incoming storm. “Shut up!”
Li Beinian’s breathing became heavier. She bit his palm forcefully and struggled harder.
She was extremely defiant.
Unlike Lin Kerou, Li Beinian’s struggles and rejection were not exaggerated. It suffocated him.
Despair, fear, disgust…
He could sense all sorts of emotions coming from her, and it made him feel like a cowardly and shameless rapist.
Things shouldn’t be like this.
Everything shouldn’t have turned out like this.
Things had changed.
Everything had changed.
“Enough.” Mu Donglin shut his eyes and relented. He withdrew his hand from the folds of her shirt, still pinning her down firmly. He said steadily, “I will only say this once.”
Li Beinian felt a lump in her throat and stared at the ceiling in despair.
Her nostrils flared and her eyes turned bloodshot.
Mu Donglin felt as though his heart had been stabbed by a steel awl, leaving a huge gaping hole out of which all his life and soul would drain.
“Stay away from Mu Xichen.” Mu Donglin’s voice was hoarse. “He won’t live for long.”
Li Beinian froze and looked at Mu Donglin.
Mu Donglin looked back at her indifferently. “He has done many things that he shouldn’t have done. It’s only a matter of time before he gets exposed. If you… become his family, you will also be implicated.”
Li Beinian immediately recalled Mu Xichen’s ending in her previous life.
He did many things that he shouldn’t have done?
No, it was impossible!
Mu Xichen would never do those things!
Li Beinian reacted immediately, “No, he wouldn’t!”
She spoke without thinking. Mu Donglin gritted his teeth, his jealousy was turning him insane.
He pinched her cheeks and said through gritted teeth, “You trust him that much?”
Li Beinian was forced to look up and her breathing was heavy.
Facing Mu Donglin’s almost crazed expression, she sneered. “You sabotaged him.”
She spoke with certainty.
Her voice was muffled because her cheeks were being pinched, but the determination in her eyes was unwavering.
Mu Donglin stared at her for two seconds and suddenly laughed. “I sabotaged him?”
Li Beinian glared at him with certainty in her eyes and kept silent.
“You’ll find out in time to come, whether I sabotaged him.” Mu Donglin pushed her face away. “I’d advise you to break up with him. Otherwise, he’ll bring you down with him sooner or later.”
His voice seemed to be overlapping as it reached the edge of her soul. It brought with it another scene.
In that scene, Mu Donglin was pinning her against the wall, pinching her face, and smiling icily. “Given Mu Xichen’s current situation, are you still waiting for him to marry you? Ha…”
As the scene in her mind merged with Mu Donglin’s face and an indescribable feeling surged within her.
The sadness, despair, and heartbreak in her memory overwhelmed her.
Li Beinian’s eyes glistened and acted almost in synchrony with the scene in her mind. “Ptui!”
Mu Donglin’s face darkened. Immediately, he heard her cursing, “F*ck you, you bastard!”
“Nian Nian, I do like you.” Mu Donglin looked at her coldly. “That’s why I’m here to remind you that he has offended many people and he won’t have a good ending.”
In that scene in her mind, Mu Donglin spoke at the same time. “He doesn’t know how to play his cards. At this point, he is still insisting on not pleading guilty. He thinks he will be released. He’s still thinking about his sister-in-law.”
“Break up with him before it happens and come back to me. I will ensure your safety.”
“As my wife, you hooked up with a smuggler. I can’t protect you.”
“Once the truth is out and it’s been found that you’re related to him, you’re done for.”
“It’s not easy to keep a cuckold like me hidden. You’ll need to watch out for yourself, wifey.”
The clear image in her mind overlapped with everything that was happening before her now.
Every word was crystal clear, as though they were still ringing in her ears.
Li Beinian’s heart trembled. Her long eyelashes fluttered and tears started rolling down her cheeks.
Seeing this, Mu Donglin softened his tone and gently wiped away her tears. “What’s so great about him? Nian Nian, he has always been so full of himself, he’ll end up harming you.”
“I didn’t expect you to know Mu Xichen,” Lin Kerou said in her charming voice. “He doesn’t make friends easily. There’s no harm in trying to build a good relationship with him.”

“He’s been so full of himself ever since he was young. Everyone who knows him has distanced themselves from him. Why are you still trying to get close to him?” Mu Donglin sneered. “You’re really a tramp.”
Li Beinian’s long eyelashes fluttered as she looked at Mu Donglin and asked in a hoarse voice, “What exactly did he do?”
Mu Donglin sneered. “You should ask him.”
Her phone rang again.
Li Beinian looked up.
Mu Donglin felt his anger rising again when he saw the name.
He picked up the phone and turned on the speaker. He looked squarely into her face.
“Where are you?” It was Mu Xichen’s voice.
His voice was low and mellow, there was a gentleness in it that Mu Donglin had never heard before.
He shot Li Beinian an icy stare and gestured for her to speak.
Li Beinian opened her mouth and said in a trembling, hoarse voice, “I…”
Mu Xichen immediately caught on and asked again, “Where are you?”
Li Beinian was about to answer when Mu Donglin mouthed something.
He mouthed the words: Send him away.
Immediately after, he mouthed: I’ll tell you.
Li Beinian hesitated for a moment.
After a moment, the sound of a doorbell could be heard from the other end of the line.
At the same time, a faint voice came from outside the door.
“He’s here.” Li Beinian’s voice was very soft as she looked at him and sneered. “You won’t be able to leave.”
Mu Xichen knitted his brow tightly when he heard these words. “What?”
Mu Donglin’s expression darkened and he suddenly laughed. “Why should I leave?”
He didn’t speak loudly, but he was clearly heard over the phone.
Mu Xichen paused in shock. “Mu Donglin?”
Mu Donglin released Li Beinian and got onto his feet slowly. He straightened his suit and looked down at her, saying, “You’ll regret it.”
He held Li Beinian’s cell phone in his hand so that the other party could hear him clearly.
It was hard to tell if the message was meant for Li Beinian or Mu Xichen.
“I’m very satisfied today,” Mu Donglin said slowly. “Nian Nian, I love you.”
Boom.
His words stung Mu Xichen’s sanity at once.
Mu Xichen frowned deeply, almost crushing the phone in his hand.
Li Beinian’s expression changed slightly. In the blink of an eye, Mu Donglin had turned around and was now walking towards the balcony.
Li Beinian immediately stood up and shouted, “Stop right there! You’re speaking nonsense! Ah Chen, nothing happened!”
“You really break my heart.” Mu Donglin turned around and saw Li Beinian running towards him. He reached out to stop her. Smiled at her, he said, “You felt good too, didn’t you?”
The veins on Mu Xichen’s forehead throbbed visibly when he heard the voice on the other end of the line.
Mu Donglin!
Mu Donglin again!
Mu Xichen strode in quickly.
He looked at the servant and asked, “Where’s Mu Donglin?”
“Eldest… Eldest Young Master Mu…” The servant shook her head, frightened by Mu Xichen. “I don’t know…”
Mu Xichen’s eyes were stormy as he looked at her and asked, “What about Li Beinian?”
“Second Miss… is in the room.” The servant took two steps back and asked, “May I know who you are? Are you looking for Second Miss for any particular reason?”
Right after the servant had said this, Li Xueqing’s voice was heard coming from the second floor.
She looked pleasantly surprised to see the man. “Leader Mu?”
As she spoke, she was already walking down the stairs. She asked, “What brings you here?” Then she looked at the servant and said, “Quickly, serve tea.”
The servant immediately acknowledged and turned to leave.
Li Xueqing looked at Mu Xichen, who was obviously frosty. and more sinister than usual. She suppressed her sense of dread and smiled flatteringly. “You…”
“Where is Li Beinian’s room?” Mu Xichen’s eyes were cold and his voice was low and stern.
Li Xueqing tensed up and paused for a moment. Her eyes darted and said, “She’s in the room with Eldest Young Master Mu. They’ve been in there for less than half an hour before you turned up.”
Li Xueqing pointed to the second floor. “The second room upstairs. The first room is mine…”
Immediately, Mu Xichen walked right past her and headed towards the stairs.
Li Xueqing was indignant. Looking at Mu Xichen’s back view, she shouted, “Leader Mu, don’t just barge in. I heard them just now… don’t spoil their fun!”
Although he knew that she was up to no good and was trying to sow seeds of discord…
He could not hide his anger.
Mu Xichen shut his eyes for a moment and then rushed upstairs. He pounded on the door.
The door flew open at once and Mu Xichen saw a dishevelled Li Beinian.
Her eyes were slightly bloodshot, looking as though there was a layer of dense mist over them.
Her hair and clothes were in disarray, but she stood up straight.
When she saw him, Li Beinian called out, “Ah Chen…”
Relieved to see her, he drew her into his embrace.
Li Beinian hugged him tightly and sniffed.
She could touch him with her hands and feel the warmth of his body.
Fortunately, he was still around.
Mu Xichen released her and looked her up and down carefully. “Did he bully you?”
Li Beinian felt herself choking as she tried to speak. However, Mu Xichen suddenly shifted his body and strode towards the balcony.
Mu Donglin had just gone downstairs to get his car, when he suddenly felt an icy presence watching overhead.
He looked up and saw Mu Xichen standing on the balcony, looking at him frostily.
Mu Donglin flashed a smile at him and asked, “Are you looking for me?”
Seeing that Mu Xichen had played right into his hands, Mu Donglin was in a fabulous mood.
It was rare to see Mu Xichen suffer. Although he had not done anything to Li Beinian, no matter what he had said on the phone or what Li Xueqing had misrepresented, it would be impossible for the man to not be estranged from this woman now.
That was good enough.
Mu Xichen had a bad temper, and Li Beinian was also a proud person. When there is a clash of two strong personalities, one would inevitably be hurt.
It was only a matter of time before they split up.
Mu Donglin’s mood improved further. He smiled calmly and remarked, “I didn’t expect my brother to care so much about me. I’m really flattered.”
Mu Donglin looked up at him, waiting to see the man’s look of exasperation.
However, Mu Xichen seemed to have lost his emotions. He stood there like an old monk in meditation, looking at the other man with disdain.
Suddenly, his calm face broke into a smile.
It was a deeply sinister smile.
Mu Donglin’s eyebrows twitched. Immediately, he saw Mu Xichen placing his hand on the balcony railing, leveraging on it as he flipped over.
