The man’s imposing manner made Shi Yuxuan shudder but she did not back down. After all, she had already expected what Li Beichen’s attitude would be like.

Li Beichen, do you lack water in your five elements?

You’re always so angry out of nowhere.

He really should find a woman who had great amounts of water in her five elements to douse his temper.

A woman with great amounts of water in her five elements?

At the thought of this, Shi Yuxuan’s eyes lit up. Well, that was fortunate. Her Chinese name had the word ‘rain’ in it.

Perhaps she could even counter him?

When he saw that Yuxuan was still holding the plate of unknown black “food” while leaning against the door and refusing to leave, Li Beichen’s eyes narrowed and a cold aura surged towards her. “Shi Yuxuan, don’t make me repeat the same words a third time.”

This man was being fierce to her again.

So she simply nodded and replied. “Oh.”

“Oh?” Li Beichen was dissatisfied with her attitude.

“Since President Li hates my scent so much, in the future, you can wear a mask when you go downstairs. Or you can hold your breath too.”

Yuxuan raised her brows while speaking. She didn’t mean to provoke him. She was just telling the truth.

After all, they were engaged and would live together in the future. If Li Beichen did not change his weird habits, how would they get along?

Yes, it was true that she was a little afraid of him, but she couldn’t just give in. She had to reason with him.

Li Beichen could see from her eyes that she was not going to back down. Looking down again, Li Beichen turned his wristwatch as he raised an eyebrow in apparent disdain, the mere action displaying a show of his power and standing.

He knew that she was going to fight it out with him.

The man’s eyes seemed to be filled with a thousand years worth of ice, and his gaze was bone-chilling.

With just one glance, Shi Yuxuan’s lips twitched in fear. She had always been a woman who knew how much to give and take and she was good at reading someone from their body language.

It seemed that it was impossible to reason with him. Or rather, she had to find another way to interact with Li Beichen.

A devious idea entered her mind and she smiled mysteriously. “Since President Li is so busy, I won’t disturb you anymore.”

“Mm.” After returning to the study room, Li Beichen crossed his long legs and leaned against the office chair. As if a little tired, his slender and fair index finger stroked his tightly knitted brows.

That woman was incredibly aggravating when she was not obedient.

After calming himself down, he was about to start working on the proposal for acquiring the noble title when Shi Yuxuan shouted from downstairs.

“Li Beichen—”

“Li Beichen—”

She deliberately dragged out her voice and when her voice reached Li Beichen’s ears, he could not help but feel a deep sense of disgust and anger.

What was this woman up to again?

Li Beichen threw the proposal in his hand down. It fell with a loud bang and the sound resounded throughout the entire study room.

What did she want now? Did she really want him to teach her a lesson?

Li Beichen’s sharp eyes flashed with a frightening light. With both hands in his pockets, he walked out of the study in an imposing manner.

Shi Yuxuan was holding a basin of something in her hands. Her long eyelashes were half-closed as she looked at him provocatively.

A light laugh burst out of her lips, unruly and wild.

Then in the next moment, Shi Yuxuan swiftly splashed out the contents of the basin!

Italian imported olive oil poured down the stairs like torrential rain.

Li Beichen was shocked.

This woman?!

“Are you crazy?” Li Beichen’s entire body exuded a sense of ruthlessness. The smell of blood gradually filled the air.

Shi Yuxuan, on the other hand, looked innocent and extremely pleased with herself. “Didn’t Mr. Li despise me? Alright, then from now on, you should stay obediently on the second floor and don’t come down. Otherwise, I’m afraid your elegance will be tainted by someone like me.”
