This voice belonged to…
She looked toward the crowd.
She saw a tall and well-built man coming from the crowd. He was dressed in a simple shirt and trousers. But he looked elegant in them. He was by himself but for an unknown reason, he seemed to exude an overbearing and suppressive aura!
The crowd automatically stood to the side to let him pass.
“Li Beijue?” Chi Enen shouted in surprise when she saw his handsome face.
What was he doing here? Did he finish his meeting?
The cold man walked up to her, his gaze resting on her flushed face and he paused slightly. He then pulled a sullen face, speaking in a deep voice, “Where’s Huo Yi?”
Didn’t he instruct him not to leave her side and to keep an eye on this woman?
Who gave him permission to leave this woman alone?
Chi Enen knew his temper and could tell that he was angry from his tone. She hurried to put in a good word for Huo Yi. “I am thirsty. Butler Huo went to buy a drink for me. How did you manage to find me?”
“Buy a drink?” Li Beijue did not care that she was deliberately changing the topic. He stubbornly continued with the previous topic. “Couldn’t he bring you with him to buy the drink?”
Chi Enen could do nothing about his temper. She hurried to explain. “I didn’t want to go with him.”
Li Beijue was silent. He frowned, apparently his anger was not appeased.
Chi Enen could only change the topic blatantly once again to help Huo Yi. “Li Beijue, you have come at the right time. Can you help me to ask the boss how much the ring is?”
“You want to buy this?” This was a men’s ring. Who was she buying it for?
His face sank, suppressing the anger and rage that could be seen in his eyes.
However, he gave in to Chi Enen who looked to him for help. He pulled a long face and asked the boss in a cold voice for the price. He then turned to Chi Enen to tell her the price with a darkened expression on his face. “155.”
The silver ring cost 155 yuan. It was expensive!
One could buy such ring at a few tens of yuan in Lin City. But Chi Enen knew that the products in tourist areas were usually more expensive than other places.
Although 155 yuan was slightly expensive, she could still afford it.
She pondered for a while before making up her mind to buy it.
She took her wrinkled wallet out of her bag, and dug out coins that totaled to 155 yuan from it. She then handed it to the boss with clear, sharp eyes. “Boss, I am getting the ring.”
She then turned to Li Beijue, asking him to translate it for her.
What did this woman take him for? Li Beijue was in a bad mood. Still he translated for her. The boss gestured after hearing the translation and put the money away.
The lady who kicked up a fuss just now was furious, screaming about. “What are you doing! I have already bought that ring. How can you accept her money? How can you run a business like this? Return her the money!”
Chi Enen could not take it anymore, refuting her loudly, “The seller did not accept your money. Besides, I am the one who saw the ring first. It is just that I do not know the language and I am still communicating with the seller.”
“It’s your problem that you don’t know the language. Anyway, I paid for it first so the ring should be mine.” She did not really want the ring. She fought with Chi Enen only because Chi Enen seemed to like the ring. She only wanted to snatch the ring from her.
But now that she saw Li Beijue, she felt even more indignant.
Why should this woman with normal looks and figure have such a handsome boyfriend while she was with an old and ugly man?
She felt indignant!
She desperately wanted the ring to get it back at her!
Chi Enen could tell what she was up to. She could not be bothered to argue with her. She took the ring and was ready to leave. “Li Beijue, let’s go.”
