Hidden Marriage 99 Days: Please Restrain Yourself Chapter 486 - He Even Calls Out Your Name in His Sleep

Chapter 486: He Even Calls Out Your Name in His Sleep

Li Beinian retreated a step and looked at the man with disgust in her eyes. “Eldest Young Master Mu, this is a public space, I hope you can exercise some restraint.”
Mu Donglin, however, pressed up closer and replied, “Weren’t you speaking so loudly? Are you afraid now?”
He reached out and grabbed Li Beinian’s wrist with his large hand. “Why, you said it like it was real. And now you have no guts to answer?”
She was about to speak when Shi Yishen interrupted.
While there was a smile on his face, a dangerous hint of warning could be seen in his pair of amorous eyes as he said, “Eldest Young Master Mu, this is a public event, treat it as doing me a favor.”
As he said this, he reached out to grab Mu Donglin’s hand. “It’s a rare opportunity for Shiguang and Shangzhi to be collaborating. Let me buy you a meal later?”
There was no lack of courtesy in his gesture.
Only, between them they understood, there were only part-truths in his words.
They merely needed a good excuse to back off.
Mu Donglin understood this too.
He finally loosened his grip, then turned to Shi Yishen, saying, “Young CEO Shi seems to have become more concise ever since returning from the USA. Why, are you prepared to settle in Guang City?
“How could I,” said the cunningly evasive man with an apologetic smile. Maintaining his attitude of equal standing with the other man, he continued, “Who would seek death by competing with Eldest Young Master Mu? I’ll be returning to Ming City in a few days.”
Ming City?
Li Beinian couldn’t help but stare at him.
Shi Yishen acted as though he did not notice her curious stare and continued his conversation with Mu Donglin. The ensuing exchange was all business talk.
Finally, they managed to shift his attention. CEO Yang sighed in relief and quietly led Li Beinian away.
Unexpectedly, Lin Kerou came after them.
She looked exceptionally captivating today.
Her pale yellow evening gown was matched with a pair of candy-colored patent leather heels.
Her long and wavy tresses that were dyed a golden brown framed her exquisitely made-up face.
She walked up to them looking hesitant and delicate. Then, she whispered to Li Beinian, “Nian Nian, may we speak privately for a moment?”
CEO Yang got the hint and knew that he should retreat.
He gave an excuse and walked off holding his wine glass.
Following this, only Li Beinian and Lin Kerou were standing there in the corner.
Li Beinian did not bother to beat around the bush and said tersely, “What’s up?”
Lin Kerou put on a delicate expression as she looked at Li Beinian. As though feeling uneasy, she lifted one hand to stroke her other arm, saying, “Nian Nian, I know you hate me, and I admit I was at fault previously. I apologize to you.”
“Oh, I do not accept it. What else do you want?”
With an upset expression, Lin Kerou continued, “I’m sorry, Nian Nian…”
Li Beinian did not speak and looked at the other girl icily.
Lin Kerou said very softly, “Brother Donglin loves you very much. These days, he even calls out your name in his sleep…”
“Haha.”
At once, Li Beinian smelled something fishy.
How would she have known whose name he called out when he was sleeping?
Caught off-guard by her frosty laughter, Lin Kerou easily detected her unhappiness.
Chuckling to herself, she maintained her helpless and innocent expression and continued, “Nian Nian… please don’t hate me, I want the best for the both of you. I really hope… you can come back to Brother Donglin. This is best for you.”
