Chapter 548: Don’t Tell Mu

Li Beinian froze when she heard the voice on the other end of the line.

The speaking party seemed to be getting impatient and said, “Guang Bei New Road No. 89. If you don’t show up, this boy will die.”

Li Beinian snapped back to reality. Her eyes darkened and she whispered, “Who are you?”

“Hey.” The person laughed and said steadily, “Don’t tell Mu.”

After that, the line went dead.

It was Chi Hailang’s number showing on the screen. It was his name.

Li Beinian’s heart started to pound as it grew heavier.

Don’t tell Mu.

What would happen if she told him?

She opened the call page and looked at Mu Xichen’s name. After hesitating for a while, she decided not to click on it.

At once, Li Beinian dropped herself onto the chair weakly.

Cheng Su was in the midst of sorting out that last bit of work with the staff. As she walked over, she realized from Li Beinian’s expression that something was not right.

“Sister Nian, are you feeling unwell?” She walked up and touched her forehead.

It was cold.

Startled, Cheng Su quickly unscrewed the cap of the drinking flask and handed it to her, saying, “Have some hot water.”

Li Beinian waved her hand and asked, “Are you done?”

“Everything’s settled. Shall we leave?” The more Cheng Su studied her, the more she realized that something wasn’t right. “Did something happen?”

“It’s nothing.” Li Beinian stood up, put on her sunglasses, and slung on her bag. “You guys go ahead. I’ll take a cab later.”

Bai Yuan had already gone to get the nanny van. Upon hearing this, Cheng Su felt even more convinced that something was going on with Li Beinian.

There was a huge problem!

But before she could ask further, Li Beinian had turned around.

Cheng Su frowned and made a call to Bai Yuan.

But after some pondering, she hung up and called Bo Chengcheng instead.

Sister Nian was rarely like this.

Even when the engagement was called off, she was not as distracted as she was now.

It was probably a mood issue.

Li Beinian had a good relationship with Bo Chengcheng. If Sister Nian wouldn’t tell her, perhaps she might tell Bo Chengcheng?

Bai Yuan was already waiting at the door. When he saw Li Beinian coming out, he immediately drove the nanny van closer.

However, Li Beinian seemed to be distracted and appeared as if she did not see their car. She headed straight towards the roadside.

Bai Yuan drove after her and shouted, “Sister Nian!”

Only then did Li Beinian notice and looked in their direction.

Li Beinian was wearing her sunglasses but not a mask. Perhaps she had forgotten to.

She opened her mouth, as though she was about to say something, but stopped.

Bai Yuan asked, “What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing.” Li Beinian straightened her back. “Why don’t you go home, and send Su Su home as well. I have something to attend to and will go my own way.”

Bai Yuan smiled ambiguously. “Are you off to look for Boss?”

Li Beinian twitched her lips but did not respond.

“Get in the car first. If the media catches you, there’ll be rumors again,” Bai Yuan said.

Deep inside, she did fear those paparazzi. They made up one story after another as if they didn’t care about their own lives, doing whatever it took to get readership.

However, Li Beinian still waved her hand and said, “You guys go ahead.”

Li Beinian shook off Bai Yuan and walked towards the other end of the road.

It was a T-junction with rather heavy traffic.

Li Beinian hailed a cab and got in.

Bai Yuan blinked.

Mu Xichen had said that cabs are used by way too many people, they were unhygienic, smelly, and uncomfortable.

If she were going out on a date with Boss, and knowing him, he’d never let his woman do something that he himself couldn’t tolerate.

Hence, he’d definitely have come to pick her up, just like last time.

So, where was Li Beinian heading?
