Chapter 262: Mu Xichen Is Such a Dork
It was a polite tone, but with a hint of awkwardness.
He seemed a little apologetic too as he looked towards Li Xueqing.
Everyone heard what he’d just said.
Nobody was sure how to respond.
A silent tension suspended in the air.
All the looks of envy had turned into odd glances.
Glances of gloating, mockery, sympathy…
Li Xueqing was blushing now.
Meanwhile, reporters zoomed in on her face.
Li Xueqing’s expression became amusing on the huge screen.
She was red, then pale, then red again.
She looked as if she wanted to smile, but her expression was very stiff and distorted.
“Why didn’t you say so earlier?” Yu Tian stepped forward in frustration. “Do you find this very funny?”
Yu Tian was a little loud and seemed fierce.
It made everyone uncomfortable.
The mocking comments were getting louder.
“Yu Tian.” Li Xueqing stopped him as she feigned magnanimity. “It’s just a misunderstanding, forget it.”
“I’m really sorry.” The leader apologized sincerely. “I didn’t know there were two Miss Li here.”
And the issue was that the sender hadn’t reminded him!
—”You have to hand it to her personally. But she doesn’t like people calling her name out, so just address her as Miss Li.”
He recalled the man’s instructions and thought, This must be deliberate!
He was getting embarrassed as everyone had their eyes on him. “I’m really sorry. May I know, which is the actual Miss Li then?”
The actual Miss Li?
Was she an imitation good?
Li Xueqing’s face crumbled.
She couldn’t even keep that distorted smile up.
She was enraged.
But she couldn’t possibly act out in front of everyone. As such, she simply turned around and left.
A few reporters came forward. “Miss Li Xueqing, how do you feel now?”
“Miss Li Xueqing, are you holding grudges for this misunderstanding?”
But just a number of them followed her, and they were quickly held back by Yu Tian and the bodyguards.
The rest swarmed towards Li Beinian once again.
All the cameras were on her exquisite face with light makeup.
Her features were nicely highlighted even with just a little touchup.
Li Beinian was evidently very calm in the face of the current situation.
The leader saw her face on the huge screen and was taken aback by her beauty.
He then hurried forward and asked, “You’re Miss Li?”
“I’m Li Beinian.” Li Beinian looked at him. “Who sent you here?”
“I’m sorry, that man didn’t leave his name, just the message.”
“Do you know who he is?”
“No, but he’s very good looking and very tall, about this tall.” The leader gestured. “Miss Li, I’m sorry I got the wrong person just now. Please sign on the receipt.”
Very good looking and very tall.
Li Beinian thought of Mu Xichen right away.
No, it couldn’t be.
Mu Xichen was such a dork, he wouldn’t be this romantic.
