Madam Li’s Identity Is Exposed Again!

Chapter 59: Miss Chi, Did You and Master Jue Have a Quarrel?

Although Chi Enen said it was nothing, he could still tell that this woman was upset. At least her attitude toward him seemed to have reverted to what it was before.

If it hadn’t been for the harmony of strolling through the night market together, Li Beijue might not have thought much of it.

But he had already amicably wandered the night market with Chi Enen, eaten pineapple rice together, haggled together… Suddenly returning to the way things were before, he couldn’t stand it.

This feeling, it was as if someone who had experienced warmth could not tolerate the cold anymore! Even if that cold was no different from what they had always endured!

His chest felt as if it had been fiercely punched, a surge of fury with nowhere to vent. Yet on the other hand, he couldn’t find anything Chi Enen did wrong.

She was indeed obedient and compliant.

He said not to bring up Huo Yi, and she obediently kept her mouth shut, not mentioning it.

As for what she was thinking in her heart, even if he intuitively felt she was isolating him, he couldn’t find any evidence to accuse her. He couldn’t exactly dissect this woman’s heart to take a look, could he?

And besides, she had said it was nothing, so if he kept asking, it would seem like he cared too much about her. He didn’t care about this pretentious woman at all.

Right, not at all!

Li Beijue clenched his fists, veins bulging on the back of his hand.

Just at this time, the elevator ‘dinged’ as it opened.

He strode ahead with a tense, expressionless face. Chi Enen, pretending not to notice his displeasure, followed closely behind.

The sun had already set, the afterglow of the sunset spilling across the sea level. The brilliant orange tinting the seawater, with the sea and sky sharing the same color, was beautiful enough to captivate anyone.

At the beach, Huo Yi was standing there with several people, seemingly having waited for quite a while. Seeing the two of them come down, he greeted them with a slight smile.

“Master Jue, Miss Chi, you’ve arrived. Everything is ready, please take a look…”

“Take her to study,” said the handsome yet cold-faced man, still with a tense expression.

Huo Yi stole a glance at him, then lowered his head and respectfully said, “Yes.”

Then he turned to Chi Enen with a gentle tone, “Miss Chi, please follow me.”

“Okay.”

After the two walked a certain distance.

Huo Yi suddenly spoke up, “Miss Chi, if I may be so bold to ask, did you have a quarrel with Master Jue?”

“Uh…” Chi Enen didn’t expect such a sudden question and was momentarily startled.

Seeing her confusion, Huo Yi explained, “It is very rare for Master Jue to show so much emotion, so I wondered if perhaps you had a quarrel with Miss Chi.”

Li Beijue’s temper, rare to show emotion?

Chi Enen could not agree with that.

With him, there’s a small shout every three or five days, a big shout every two or four. If anything doesn’t go his way, his face immediately darkens. A little more dissatisfaction, and he’ll smash whatever he can get his hands on. If this is considered not showing emotion, those who truly don’t show emotion might as well just cry.

However, it was true that things were not very pleasant between her and Li Beijue. Chi Enen composed herself, and after some hesitation, said, “We didn’t quarrel, it’s just a difference of opinions.”

“Because of me?” Huo Yi asked openly.

Now Chi Enen truly did not know how to respond.

Her silence was proof that she had guessed correctly; Huo Yi’s gaze warmed, but he stopped in his tracks. He looked at her somberly and said, “Miss Chi, you can’t really blame Master Jue for this; it was indeed wrong of me to leave your side without permission.”

“But you didn’t leave on purpose…”

Huo Yi shook his head and explained, “I’m a soldier as well as Master Jue’s butler. Whether from a military duty or a butler’s responsibility, following orders should always be the principle. I only thought that Miss Chi might be thirsty, but 1 failed to realize that leaving would put you in danger. It was certainly my fault..”
