Chapter 237: Why Are You Suddenly So Nervous

Aunt Jiang’s words made Li Beinian touch her face subconsciously.

Mu Xichen stared intensely at her without looking away.

Li Beinian felt even more panicked and embarrassed. She glared at him and said, “I forgot to turn on the fans last night, so I’m feeling hot.”

Aunt Jiang saw through her immediately but didn’t expose her.

She smiled and then said deliberately, “Why were you so careless? Come and eat breakfast with us.”

But Li Beinian didn’t move, she just stared at Mu Xichen and said, “Why are you here?”

Mu Xichen’s expression was solemn as he said, “I’m here to see my cat.”

“Cat?” Li Beinian stood up and turned around immediately. “Wait here.”

“There’s no need,” Mu Xichen said in a light voice. “We’ll eat breakfast first and talk about the cat later.”

“No.” Li Beinian paused and said, “You haven’t seen your cat in so long, I don’t want you to miss it too much.”

Then, she quickly ran up to her room.

Her eyes lit up when she saw Small Lock and she reached out to grab it.

But Small Lock seemed to detect that she was charging forward fiercely. It meowed and jumped onto the table quickly.

Li Beinian went over and quickly, Small Lock jumped nimbly onto the window.

Then, it turned and ran away.

Li Beinian was surprised and looked down.

Small Lock was standing on the roof on the first floor, looking up at her with its golden eyes.

“Damn it, this cat…”

Li Beinian was helpless.

And Small Lock casually started licking its paws.

Helpless, she could only go down empty-handed.

By the time she went down, Mu Xichen and Old Master were already eating.

Old Master Li saw Li Beinian come down and smiled. “I already told you to eat first. That cat is very wild and can’t be caught.”

Mu Xichen also looked up at her faintly. Then, he looked away quickly, picked up his cup, and took a sip of soy milk.

Li Beinian went to wash her hands silently.

“Xichen, is it very tough to go on missions?” Old Master Li looked worried and asked. “You have to go to and fro regardless of wind or rain, it must be very tiring?”

“It’s not tiring, grandpa.” Mu Xichen smiled slightly and looked very polite and considerate. “I’m already used to it.”

“Oh…” Old Master Li nodded. “Our Nian Nian really caused you trouble. You saved her time and time again. Sigh, I must really thank you.”

“No, Grandpa, it was what I should do.”

“Xichen, do you have a girlfriend?”

“No, grandpa.”

Mu Xichen’s voice was light and magnetically pleasing.

Li Beinian sat down and refrained from looking at him.

She picked up her cup and took a sip.

“Yes, I heard that when you were just ten-odd years old, you were sent by your cruel grandpa to the army. You probably didn’t have time to find a partner,” Old Master said a little pitifully. “What a pity, our Nian Nian already has an engagement. If she didn’t have an engagement, she would be such a good match for you.”

“Cough!” Li Beinian choked and spit out her soy milk.

She covered her mouth and coughed violently.

“Sigh.” Old Master Li immediately helped her take the cup. “Why are you so careless? You’re too old to choke on your soy milk.”

At the same time, a big hand patted her lightly on the back to ease her breathing.

Li Beinian finally caught her breath and sighed in relief.

But she heard grandpa say, “Why are you so nervous? You’re not like this usually.”
