Chapter 865: Do You Know The Biggest Difference Between You and Ah Chen
“Does that mean you admit it?” Li Beinian smiled faintly. “I know better than anyone else what my husband is like. Some people are extremely scheming, they should be careful not to fall into a pit themselves.”
“I hope you will still be able to say these things confidently when Mu Xichen’s sentence is passed.”
Li Beinian said calmly, “You don’t have to worry yourself over that. If there’s nothing else, please get lost.”
Li Beinian was a changed person now. She was more aggressive and sharper than before.
Mu Donglin looked at her silently for a long time before saying, “Mu Xichen has changed you for the worse.”
“To be more precise, he’s spoilt me.” Li Beinian pursed her lips and smiled. “He’s different from you. He treats me with sincerity and has me at heart. He gives me the best things that the world has to offer. I’ve come to know this sort of bliss and happiness because of him.”
Li Beinian had dressed up meticulously today.
Her face was radiant as the sun, her lips were lusciously red against her sparkling white teeth. Her eyes were like peach blossoms, and she looked like a happy little lady.
However, the look that this peach blossom girl gave him was piercing and thorny.
Alas, when Mu Donglin saw this side of Li Beinian, he had to admit that she now fascinated him even more, compared to other delicate and gentle women.
Delicate flowers need to be pitied.
While thorny vines need to be conquered.
But this vine belonged in someone else’s arms.
Mu Donglin smiled bitterly. “Are you blaming me?”
“Blame you? Why should I blame you?” She raised an eyebrow.
“Back then at the villa, I was also deceived by Kerou.” Mu Donglin’s eyes were sorrowful. “At that time, I only felt that Kerou didn’t know how to swim, so she wouldn’t endanger her own life to frame you. I really didn’t expect…”
“Pffft.” Li Beinian did not bother to hide the disdain in her eyes. “Forget it, it’s all in the past. It’s meaningless to talk about this now. Get lost.”
However, Mu Donglin looked at her and quickly continued, “I didn’t expect her to have learned how to swim.”
Li Beinian raised her eyebrow.
“She and Li Meng studied together overseas. Li Meng told me this later on.” Mu Donglin seemed to be remorseful. “If, like Mu Xichen, I had chosen you at the time and not Kerou, would you have…”
“No,” Li Beinian replied without hesitation. Her expression was full of mockery.
“Why?” Mu Donglin was indignant. “I’ve done one wrong thing, and you put me on the death row?”
“Have you forgotten? You slept with Li Meng.”
“That was your doing! You were the one who should have been with me that day, not that woman!”
“So what? It’s a fact that you slept with her. I’m not interested in men who keep cheating on me.” Li Beinian said slowly, “Do you know the biggest difference between you and Ah Chen?”
Mu Donglin could only guess.
Sometimes, he was really jealous of Mu Xichen.
Jealous that even with such a lowly background, the man managed to establish such a good reputation for himself.
Jealous that the man had managed to win Li Beinian’s heart before he could, even though getting to know the girl only after he did.
He was even more jealous that every time Li Beinian talked about Mu Xichen, her eyes would sparkle with adoration and happiness that couldn’t be hidden!
Li Beinian continued, “The biggest difference is that he is not like Mu Che, but you are.”
“You’ve picked up the worst of Mu Che’s terrible character.”
