“Psht!”

Li Beinian laughed aloud.

Mu Donglin kept quiet for a while before asking, “What are you laughing about?”

“Well.” Li Beinian’s eyes turned cold as she spoke slowly, “Which part of you noticed that I was unaffected by such namecalling?”

“Haven’t you been scolded enough by others?” Mu Donglin calmly said before breaking into a sneer. “What haven’t you done, and what haven’t you been through anyway?”

The hatred laid dormant inside Li Beinian erupted.

Yes, she had a terrible reputation. But did that mean she had to take the blame for everything or suffer such injustice?

Mu Donglin made her the scapegoat so many times in her previous life, based on this reason.

In order to fulfill the marriage contract with him, she’d put in so much effort and done all she could!

But he abandoned her deep in the wilderness, leaving her to die.

Even so, he was able to live peacefully with Lin Kerou.

Seeing that Li Beinian wasn’t about to say anything, Mu Donglin went on. “In fact, you just have to tolerate today’s matters. They aren’t the truth anyway, and someday everyone will discover that. It won’t affect you at all.”

“Why should I tolerate it?”

Mu Donglin paused and his voice went colder. “What did you say?”

“Why should I tolerate such absurd comments and insults?” Li Beinian sounded calm but serious. “Your grandpa and mine had a deal, a contract. Why have I become the third party here?”

Mu Donglin had no words.

“I’m a bastard child?” Li Beinian chuckled. “If we think about it, you’re the bastard child, Mr. Mu.”

Mu Donglin’s expression hardened. “Do you know what you’re saying?”

Li Beinian felt smug as she discovered that she’d hit the right spot, and he was angered. “Why, am I wrong?”

When Mu Donglin was born, Mu Che and Mu Xichen’s mother were married.

It was only when Mu Xichen’s mother passed on did Mu Donglin’s mother remarry Mu Che.

Although they were man and wife in name, her status was very different at the time of his birth.

The air around them tensed.

Li Beinian wasn’t the least bit bothered. “Your attitude now worries me, and I wonder if you’ll follow in your father’s footsteps. I won’t make the same mistake, you know, Young Master Mu?”

Mu Donglin chuckled. “You can’t keep the pretense any longer?”

Li Beinian was slightly confused. She raised her brows slightly, signaling for him to go on.

“All this time, you’ve been pretending to be all nice and noble. But deep down you’re dying to fulfill this contract.” Mu Donglin said with conviction, “You’re bothered by Kerou’s presence, and you’re doing all you can to taint her reputation. All you want is for her to back away.”

Li Beinian burst into laughter.

How absurd.

This jerk was way too arrogant and full of himself.

“But don’t forget, your relationship with my younger brother is ambiguous as well, my ‘dear’ fiancèe.”

Mu Donglin spat the word ‘dear’ in utter coldness.

“Oh…” Li Beinian stroked the black cat beside her. “So you’re telling me that you and Lin Kerou are having an ambiguous relationship, huh?”

At this point, Mu Donglin felt as if he could see a semblance of Mu Xichen.

This way of speaking, so frustrating and infuriating!

“Don’t put words in my mouth!”

“But it’s a fact that you’ve come to threaten me for her. Now that I’m upset by it, what do you expect me to do?”

What do you expect me to do?
