“Will the engagement not be called off just because I apologize?”
Li Beinian chuckled.
How naive.
Seeing that there was not a single tinge of remorse on Li Beinian’s face, Li Haoran humphed and said, “At the very least, you’d better put on a good attitude.”
“Hehe. You’ve never trusted me in the first place.” Li Beinian chuckled sarcastically and stared at Li Haoran with a look of disappointment.
Li Haoran felt guilty somehow, after seeing her expression.
He looked away and chastised coldly, “Your grandpa went through painstaking means to get you engaged to Mu Donglin. Don’t embarrass him.”
“Your father’s trust is not going to be enough,” Fang Zhili butted in abruptly.
She glanced at Li Beinian tenderly.
Li Beinian looked towards the side to see that Fang Zhili had a face full of exquisite makeup. Although she was already in her forties, she still looked like she was in her twenties or thirties.
“You must let the Mu Family believe you, Niannian.”
Li Haoran’s face turned less sullen and he gazed at Fang Zhili tenderly.
Still looking at Li Beinian, Fang Zhili continued, “Your father did that for your own good. When the time comes, swallow your pride and apologize. There’s nothing that we can’t solve together. Only by doing so, will you make things easier for all of us.”
Although she sounded like she was helping Li Haoran solve the problem, she was actually reminding Li Haoran that Li Beinian was just a thief in the eyes of the Mu Family members!
She was also saying that Li Beinian was making life hard for Li Haoran.
Li Beinian kept her guard up.
In both lifetimes, Fang Zhili managed to keep Li Haoran wrapped around her finger. She had no choice but to admit that Fang Zhili was indeed rather scheming.
Li Beinian smirked and chuckled. “Sure.”
Li Haoran was initially still worried about Li Beinian going against Fang Zhili. However, he felt relieved to see Li Beinian’s reaction.
Fang Zhili did not expect Li Beinian to be so straightforward either.
