Li Beinian raised her eyes and looked at him.
“I just don’t feel too happy.” Mu Donglin’s voice was cold. “My mother hasn’t slept a wink since last night. She has been sending people to find her ‘corpse’, but now that she’s standing here, she didn’t even say a single word of apology…”
He paused and then continued, “But I like your granddaughter.”
He only said a few words, but it seemed like a thick wooden pile ringing a big bell loudly in her heart.
He said that he liked her?
He had been having a meal intimately with Lin Kerou last time, yet now he was telling grandpa that he liked her?
Li Beinian suddenly felt a little sick.
“So I will marry her not only because of the elderly’s intentions.” Mu Donglin pulled his tie and looked at Li Beinian. “But we still need to communicate more. I will come to see you often in the future, Nian Nian.”
Nian Nian…
In two lifetimes, Mu Donglin had never called her like this.
In that instant, Li Beinian’s mood was very complicated.
She raised her eyes and looked at Mu Donglin.
Mu Donglin’s eyes remained cold and calm.
She didn’t know if it was just her own illusion, but she thought she saw flames deep in his eyes.
This had never happened before in her two lifetimes.
Could he… really…
Such an idea ignited in Li Beinian’s heart, but she immediately rejected it.
It was impossible.
Mu Donglin only loved himself.
He didn’t even seem to like Lin Kerou much.
After staring at Mu Donglin for a long time, Li Beinian said nothing.
The rest of the people heard Mu Donglin’s clear statement, and even if they were unwilling, they couldn’t do anything about it.
Old Mr. Li’s expression also relaxed. “That’s good. If that’s the case, then let’s wait for Nian Nian to recover before making preparations.”
“Of course.” Mu Donglin smiled slightly.
Then, after chatting for a while, Mu Donglin left.
After they left, there was a moment of silence in the ward.
Li Haoran looked at Li Beinian and asked, “Are you sure that Mu Xichen saved you last night?”
Li Beinian pursed her lips coldly. “Why?”
“Why would he save you?”
Li Haoran felt that it didn’t make sense.
Mu Xichen was isolated and introverted, although he did look more friendly than Mu Donglin.
However, compared to Mu Donglin, Mu Xichen made him feel more afraid.
Li Beinian sneered at him. “You also called him Chief Mu. As a soldier, wouldn’t he save a citizen from danger?”
Soldiers had always been synonymous with a sense of justice.
