Chapter 310: Chapter 310: Li Beijue Wants to Take Her Back to Rainy City
She kissed him as if their lips merely brushed against each other, and like getting an electric shock from the brief contact, she thought to run.
Li Beijue couldn’t possibly give her the chance to escape. His large hand hooked around her waist, pulling her close to himself, his thin lips capturing the little lady’s soft ones that sought to flee, deepening the kiss.
He kissed her with unprecedented gentleness, nearly drowning her in it.
After what seemed like an eternity, he breathed heavily with restrained patience before finally releasing Chi Enen. But he still held her by the neck, his forehead against Chi Enen’s, and said, “Chi Enen, come back to Rainy City with me.”
Chi Enen instinctively asked, “What for?”
The last place she wanted to go was Rainy City, because that’s where the person she least wanted to meet was.
“What are you afraid of when I’m with you?” Li Beijue didn’t specify the reason for the trip, his falcon-like eyes dominantly locking onto her pupils.
Chi Enen pressed her lips together and looked at him, “When do we leave?”
“We’ll set off in a bit. I’ve had Huo Yi make the arrangements,” said Li Beijue, raising his head but still holding her waist. “As for that woman next door, the police will be here soon.”
With that, Chi Enen knew he’d heard what she said to Chi Ya. Normally, she would be furious about being monitored, but maybe it was because of what he’d just said—she wasn’t as angry about his controlling actions. She simply glared at him and demanded, “I want to bring Baby Chi with me.”
Li Beijue frowned, clearly disinclined, “Why bring him along? I’ll have someone look after him.”
“No, I must take Baby Chi with me, or else I won’t go.”
She had promised Baby Chi she would not leave him behind again. An adult’s promise must be kept, otherwise it would be detrimental to a child’s growth.
Besides, Baby Chi had been her sole companion from a young age. Except for the time she returned to Rainy City earlier, they had never been apart. She wasn’t used to being away from Baby Chi either.
Her stance was firm, and though Li Beijue was reluctant, he eventually gave in, “I’ll have Huo Yi pick him up.”
“Good,” Chi Enen knew he would agree, her face breaking into a smile.
The addition of a ‘light bulb’ to his own plans wasn’t exactly pleasing to Li Beijue, but seeing her smile made all his displeasure evaporate.
Forget it, he wouldn’t argue with her today.
After all, who could bear to see her upset?
Li Beijue’s previously furrowed brows relaxed as he said to her, “I have a meeting before we depart, and you…”
“I’ll go down to work,” Chi Enen volunteered.
Li Beijue’s face darkened as he grabbed her wrist, “Who said you could go down? When I’m in the meeting, I’ll have my secretary arrange a seat for you, and you will sit beside me and wait.”
“…” This arrangement reminded her of the stool he had arranged for her in Country W.
Chi Enen subconsciously wanted to refuse, but a certain person was too forceful, treating his decision as if it had been a consultation, and in the blink of an eye, had already made the phone call to have his secretary arrange it.
…
The meeting lasted two and a half hours, during which Chi Enen sat beside him, utterly bored for the entire duration.
Finally, the meeting was over.
The phone from Huo Yi’s internal line rang, “Master Jue, the Little Young Master and I are waiting downstairs.”
“Hmm.”
Li Beijue pulled open his shirt collar, grabbed the notebook authoritatively, and took hold of Chi Enen’s hand, his handsome and noble face commanding, “Let’s go.”
