Chapter 390 - So Be Gentle (1/2)

She leaned lazily on the sofa. Her snow-white skin glistened when contrasted against the red dress.

Mu Xichen was silent for a moment and saw her pour the bottle of beer into her mouth.

He reached out to grab it from her and said, “I’m going to get a cup.”

After that, he got up and went to the kitchen.

Li Beinian’s items were placed in an orderly manner, and he easily spotted delicate crystal cups.

After taking two cups, he realized that she had just finished half of another bottle she had opened.

Mu Xichen rushed up and said hopelessly and in annoyance, “Use a cup.”

Li Beinian wiped her drink, glanced at him, and said slowly, “You haven’t answered me. Do you believe it?”

“Yes.” Mu Xichen poured the beer into a cup. “I believe it.”

“Why?”

“My grandfather is a Buddhist.”

Li Beinian smiled, took the cup from his hand, and drank another mouthful. “Yes, Buddha mentioned that cause and effect happen over three generations. The good will be blessed and the evil will receive retribution.”

Mu Xichen did not say a word. His eyes darkened as he looked at her desolate appearance.

Li Beinian quickly finished a cup of beer and poured another serving for herself. She muttered on the sofa, “There’s karma for the misdeeds people did in their previous lives.”

Mu Xichen looked at her deeply. In the end, he couldn’t help but take the cup away from her. “You’re drunk.”

“I just started.” Li Beinian laughed and quickly poured a glass for him. “You should drink with me.”

They should get drunk and celebrate together.

Celebrate her liberation, the end of the tragedy of her previous life, and a new beginning.

From now on, she was free.

She was no longer the Li Beinian who suffered an ill fate.
