Chapter 436 - The First Time… Doing It (1/2)

His deep voice carried an insistence that left no room for rejection.

The moment he said that it was as though she had been struck by a bolt of lightning that fried every last bit of her remaining sanity.

She looked at him, stunned, as her heart palpitated madly. Then, she realized he was returning her stare, his deep and dark eyes giving off a hint of an unfamiliar glint.

It resembled both anger and happiness.

Yet, they also carried with them a look of threat and warning.

She raised her hand intending to push him away, but when it made contact with his chest, all she could do was open her mouth. Not a word came out of it. The man narrowed his eyes.

She could sense the ominous warning bearing down its invisible form on her.

His trademark violent aura of a soldier was immediately evident.

Li Beinian was terrified.

She gulped and kept silent.

Mu Xichen’s eyes were cold and knowing. At the same time, she felt his hand brushing across her legs.

That was where she wore her switchblade!

She stiffened and then reached out to stop him.

Alas, it was too late.

With one arm around her waist, his other hand fiddled with the ivory switchblade that she carried on herself as a habit.

Li Beinian’s gaze fell on the switchblade. Her breathing was light and shallow.

The man’s eyes darkened. He hit the button on the weapon, and a short but sharp blade popped out.

As the scabbard fell away, the overly sharp blade baptized by the glare of the golden sunlight gleamed with icy coldness.

Li Beinian jumped with a start and shrank back. However, she found herself tightly wedged in his strong grip.
