[2] Hidden Marriage 99 Days: Please, Restrain Yourself

Chapter 274: Do You Like Me Now?

She didn’t know where the memory came from, but it appeared in her mind again.

The face in her memory coincided with the man in front of her.

That voice also sounded like his.

Touching Mu Xichen’s deep eyebrows, Li Beinian’s heart pounded.

Was it him?

That man.

After that car accident, she seemed to have lost more of her memories than she had imagined.

It seemed that Li Beinian had forgotten many important things.

However, no one mentioned this word.

Including this amnesia episode, she only knew because she coincidentally heard this old servant because he had a slip of the tongue.

However, very quickly, she came back to reality and frowned. “No. Let go!”

Mu Xichen carefreely and cooly said, “So what if I don’t let go?”

Li Beinian looked at him and gritted her teeth. “I will hate you then.”

“Oh…” Mu Xichen seemed to have got a certain message. His usually calm expression suddenly became serious. Looking at her, he softly said, “Do you mean that you like me now?”

Hearing that, Li Beinian did not know how to respond.

Glaring at him, she met his quiet gaze and blushed. “As if!” She spat out.

Mu Xichen raised his eyebrow slightly and let go.

Li Beinian seemed to pardon him and immediately drew back her hands.

When she sat up, Li Beinian realized that someone seemed to be in a better mood than before.

Slowly restarting the car, Mu Xichen’s face was very calm.

However, in this calm, he seemed to have a faint smile.

It was very light and not obvious.

She did not know why, but her heart was in a mess.

Seeing him like this, she couldn’t help but say, “Don’t get me wrong. I didn’t mean that.”

Mu Xichen curved his lips and asked deliberately, “About what?”

Li Beinian was speechless.

Seriously!

About what? He obviously knew what she was talking about!

Li Beinian simply looked out of the window.

“Why don’t you say it?” Mu Xichen spoke again.

Li Beinian stared outside and mumbled, “What’s there to say.”

“You haven’t answered me yet.” Mu Xichen’s unyielding voice was heard again.

Li Beinian decided to ignore him. She focused on the view outside but couldn’t help but smile.

The streets flew past her and the world was quiet.

It was like the only sounds were the car driving and the wild beating of her heart.

…

When they reached home, Li Beinian hurriedly unbuckled her seatbelt.

Hearing the unlocking of the doors, she immediately opened the door and bolted out.

Looking at the way she was desperately trying to escape, Mu Xichen’s lips curved into a smile.

He started the car and drove out again.

Just then, his phone rang. It was Gu Mingye.

He casually picked it up. “Boss, why aren’t you back yet? I can’t settle it. That guy Jiang Yeqing is going crazy…”

Mu Xichen raised his eyebrows and glanced at the time. “It’s only half-past one.”

“You asked me to be there at one and I haven’t even eaten lunch yet. Are you going to leave me in the lurch?”

Jiang Yeqing’s manic voice could be heard with great anger.

Mu Xichen remained calm and slowly said, “I’ll just take it as an apology for you hurting her.”

Jiang Yeqing was speechless. “You’re so shameless. I went to make havoc of my rose garden so that you have 9,999 red roses to send and my entire garden is destroyed. Haven’t I showed enough sincerity?”
