Madam Li’s Identity Is Exposed Again!

Chapter 193: I’m Stubborn

Translator: 549690339 |

This was definitely the harshest confession Chi Enen had ever heard!

Who threatens to kill someone if they are not liked during a confession? How is that any different from the threats of gangsters and robbers?

Yet…

For some reason, when these words came from the man before her, they were particularly shocking.

Chi Enen looked at him with complex emotions flickering in her bright eyes.

It was still that aristocratic face, but she couldn’t help thinking about what he had just said.

Li Beijue was actually an illegitimate child!

And he was cruelly abandoned by his own mother when he was just 5 years old…

Chi Enen was an illegitimate child herself, so she knew very well how much an illegitimate child had to endure in a family. The Chi family was considered decent in Rainy City, yet she felt suffocated living there.

…What about him?

The Li family’s wealth was famous worldwide. He was only 5 years old, unprotected by his mother, how did he survive in that big family? And how did he painfully climb step by step to become the heir at the top of the pyramid?

Chi Enen felt that she couldn’t even begin to imagine how desperate a 5-year-old child must have felt when suddenly abandoned by his mother to the home of an unknown father.

No wonder when they first met in the bar, his attitude towards her was so harsh.

Was it because she, like his biological mother when he was 5, had abandoned him?

A sharp pain stabbed at Chi Enen’s heart, as if it was pricked by a needle. The feelings she had deliberately ignored surged up again, this time stronger than ever, so intense that she couldn’t even deceive herself.

She pressed her hand to her throbbing chest and managed to speak with difficulty, “Li Beijue, you know that our status is worlds apart. Even if I try my hardest, I’d never be able to assist your career in the slightest.”

“1 don’t need it. What I want, 1 will work hard for myself!”

What was this pretentious woman thinking in that head of hers? When did he ever need a woman’s help? What he wanted was her heart, not her assistance!

Chi Enen paused, then continued, “Anxin said that I’m stubborn. Once I set my mind on something, not even ten bulls could drag me back. That kind of person, whether in life or in love, will be obsessive-compulsive…”

Li Beijue heard the subtext in her words. He extended his arm, trapping her between his arm and the sofa, his voice domineering and cold as it pressed down from above her head, “Coincidentally, 1 am also obsessive-compulsive.”

Chi Enen pushed against his chest, tilting her head back, her face calm as the spring snow, her clear eyes sharp as a cold blade, “Is that so? Then, President Li, could you explain what is going on with Miss Xie?”

President Li, again…

Li Beijue suddenly pulled back a bit, somewhat unreceptive to being resisted, especially with her questioning him in a tone like she was interrogating a criminal!

He had always been the one to question others, when had anyone dared to question him?

But Chi Enen did, and although he was slightly uncomfortable, he did not lose his temper. He furrowed his eyebrows and subconsciously tried to recall who ‘Miss Xie’ was.

“Miss Xie?”

Seeing him feign ignorance, Chi Enen simply laid it all out, “Xie Tingting, Miss Xie. President Li should know her, 1 would think.”

Li Beijue truly didn’t know any Xie Tingting, his impatience manifested in a twist of his brow, “What does she have to do with us?”

He had no clue who Xie Tingting, Wang Tingting, or Li Tingting were! What did he care about some Tingting? Right now, he was discussing something important with her; irrelevant people could be discussed later.

The faint fragrance of the little lady in his arms wafted over him in waves, his Adam’s apple bobbed, his falcon-like eyes intensely fixed on the red lips of the person in his embrace, that gaze as scorching as if he wanted to devour her..
