Chapter 28 (2/2)

After scooping a bowl of rice and a spoonful of soybean paste, she carried it to the second floor. Her long fingers ran through her slightly curled hair. Leaning against the door of the master bedroom, Yuxuan raised her hand and knocked on it casually. “Li Beichen—”

Only silence met her in response.

Without knocking a second time, Shi Yuxuan opened the door. It was empty and there was no one inside.

It made sense though. Li Beichen was so obsessed with cleanliness and he hated her. How could he tolerate the smell of her lingering in the master bedroom and continue staying there?

Naturally, he would not stay in the master bedroom.

After walking around several times, Yuxuan finally stopped in front of the study room.

A low and attractive voice came from the study. Li Beichen seemed to be on the phone.

The news brought by Old Chen and Mother Wu made Li Guowei smile from ear to ear. He took the opportunity to call Li Beichen and ask him to bring Shi Yuxuan back to the old residence tonight as he wanted to meet the future Young Madam, Mrs. Li.

When he heard the words “Mrs. Li”, there wasn’t much warmth on Li Beichen’s face. His eyes seemed to be sealed by ice, and there was a frightening coldness in them.

“Alright,” he replied apathetically. At the same time, a smirk began to spread across his cool lips.

After hanging up the phone, Li Beichen loosened his collar and rolled up his sleeves. His deep eyes swept over the documents on the desk. Just as he was about to settle some work matters, he heard a knock on the door

Did that woman not understand human language?

Did he have to cordon off the stairs and explicitly state that dogs and Shi Yuxuan were not allowed on the second floor?

Instantly, the surrounding air froze. The anger in his eyes was surging as he strode forward with his long legs and opened the door arrogantly. His oppressive aura enshrouded Shi Yuxuan.

Yuxuan glanced at him indifferently and said unhurriedly, “Here, for you to eat.”

Eat?

Li Beichen’s gaze turned colder as he stared at her.

What in the world was in her hand? Was she sure that the ball of black stuff was even edible?

Li Beichen took a step forward in an imposing manner. His sharp eyes suddenly became long and narrow, and his aura akin to thunder, full of power.

“Shi Yuxuan, I already told you that you’re not allowed on the second floor.” His voice was deep and powerful, exuding an irresistible force.
