Chapter 52: I Don’t Accept That Apology

However, Mu Donglin would never be this lecherous!

Li Beinian stared at him solemnly while standing still in the spacious corridor.

She walked towards him and said, “I’ve already apologised to you the other day, Leader Mu.”

“I don’t accept that apology.”

Li Beinian laughed mirthlessly. Just as she was about to speak, she heard the sound of rhythmic footsteps coming from outside.

Knock-knock

Someone began knocking on the door.

The three of them turned to look at the same time.

An elderly man entered gracefully, keeping his back taut and straight.

Butler Mu Yun’s eyes turned gloomy when he saw Li Beinian and his intentions were unknown.

He quickly looked away and said calmly, “You’re here too, Miss Li.”

Li Beinian chuckled wryly and remained silent.

“Second Young Master, Sir would like you to go to his study.”

Li Beinian took the chance to scurry towards the corridor, after which she was met with two icy cold gazes.

Greatly startled, Li Beinian shivered and scrambled away.

Mu Xichen stared at the view of her back and expressed assent.

Butler Mu Yun had obviously sensed what was amiss. After all, he was a sly old fox who was extremely sensitive to strange matters even though he managed to pretend like he did not see anything.

He nodded politely and turned around to leave.

In her previous lifetime, Mu Xichen was not on good terms with the Mu Family and hence, he bought a house of his own and moved out. Ever since then, he rarely returned to the Family mansion.

The Mu Family Mansion was way too huge and Li Beinian was bad at directions too.

Although it was not her first time there, she could not differentiate between the different rooms and sections.

She finally found Li Haoran and the rest after asking for directions from the servants.
