Chapter 322: I’m Not a Man
“How about you swear?” Li Beinian took out her phone and turned on the microphone. “Swear that you won’t ever think of Lin Kerou again. Swear that you will only treat her as a sister. Can you do that?”
She wanted to get a recording in front of so many people so they could all be witnesses.
Firstly, it could dismiss the rumors between Lin Kerou and Mu Donglin immediately.
Secondly, she would have the upper hand. If Mu Donglin gave her trouble again, this would be irrefutable evidence.
However, her behavior could be interpreted as jealousy.
Mu Xichen’s eyes darkened. He initially had a natural look, but now he was a little gloomy.
Bear with it…
It was just a scene in a play.
She didn’t even like Mu Donglin. Mu Donglin meant nothing to her.
However, at this time, he heard Mu Donglin’s voice. “Nian Nian, you know that there’s nothing between us.”
“Swear that you never had any feelings for her. Otherwise… you’re not a man.”
“Nian Nian!” Li Haoran’s expression changed. “That’s enough!”
How could Mu Donglin make this sort of promise in front of so many people?
He would be turned into a joke!
Sure enough, Mu Donglin was upset too.
Li Beinian sneered. “If the engagement is still on, we’re still fiancé and fiancée. Sooner or later, we will get married.” Her pretty eyes glanced at Lin Kerou who had just left the guest room. “I’m worried and I just want some reassurance before our marriage. Is that asking for too much?”
“Not at all!” Old Master Li struck his walking stick on the ground and sternly said, “There’s no smoke without fire. Rumors about you have circulated many times and it’s best to put an end to it as fast as possible!”
Lin Kerou’s face turned pale.
She shook as she stood beside Li Meng.
Mu Donglin hesitated before glancing at Mu Xichen subconsciously.
At this time, Mu Xichen seemed a little disturbed.
His expression was dark.
Looking at him, a thin smile appeared on his lips.
That expression was truly unpleasant.
After hesitating for a long time, Mu Donglin turned around and slowly said, “I’ve always treated Kerou as my sister. If I go back on word, let me be struck by lightning.”
“No. I don’t want you to be struck by lightning,” Li Beinian casually said. “I only want you to admit that you aren’t a man.”
All the men present started laughing.
This oath was more severe than getting struck by lightning.
Not far away, a more intense stare was seen.
Mu Donglin was clearly aware of his unhappiness and was inexplicably relieved. He said, “If I violate my word, I’m not a man.”
He spoke delightfully.
Li Beinian was finally satisfied and saved the recording.
She also sent it to Mu Donglin on WeChat and said, “This is the evidence.”
After that, there was an uproar.
At once, the scene became lively.
Hearing this, Lin Kerou’s body quivered and she almost couldn’t stand upright.
She held onto Li Meng and tears rolled down her cheeks again.
However, everyone was in a celebratory mood and no one noticed her.
“Since the misunderstanding has been cleared, let’s all have a meal together.” With a small smile on his face, Mu Che waved his hand. “Donglin, come with me first.”
At this time, Li Meng exclaimed in shock, “Kerou!”
Everyone turned over and saw that Lin Kerou had fainted.
Mu Donglin instinctively wanted to rush forward.
However, at that moment, he noticed that Mu Xichen was slightly smiling.
