Li Beinian returned to the Li Family after her shoot.

She’d thought that Li Haoran and his wife would be angry. But when she went home, she found them smiling.

Seeing Li Beinian return, Li Haoran asked in a pleasant tone, “You’re back?”

Li Beinian found this odd.

She walked up to them.

Li Haoran said, “Donglin has already explained himself. He only sees that Lin girl as a younger sister and is just being nice to her.”

Li Beinian smiled. “Oh, he said that himself?”

“Yes.” Li Haoran looked at her expression and was a little dismayed now. “To be fair, Donglin is a very outstanding man. He’s the best of the best in Guang City, in terms of looks, background, and talents. He’s already magnanimous enough to let last night’s nasty words pass, don’t say such things again in future.”

Ding-Dong.

Someone was at the door.

“Donglin must be here to pick you up.” Li Haoran was all smiley again. “Speak of the devil. Donglin is such a nice man, where else can you find such a fiancé?”

The housemaid opened the door. It really was Mu Donglin.

Mu Donglin nodded towards Li Haoran politely and greeted. “Uncle Li.” He then turned towards Li Beinian. “Nian Nian, let’s go.”

“Where to?” Li Beinian raised her brows. “Eldest Young Master Mu, since we aren’t all that compatible, then let’s call it off. Lin Kerou is rather pitiful, waiting for you all alone.”

“Nian Nian!” Li Haoran chided. “We’ve already said that Miss Lin is just like a younger sister to Donglin. Moreover, Donglin is here to fetch you personally. The both of you can talk things out and settle the misunderstandings.”

“He left me behind last night and carried Lin Kerou off. That’s a fact.” Li Beinian glared at Li Haoran coldly. “Why would I need a fiancé like this?”

“You might have some misunderstanding of me.” Mu Donglin looked at her. “Let’s go and grab a bite. We need a good talk.”

Li Beinian looked at him and narrowed her eyes.

She turned back to Li Haoran and saw a faint smile. She knew that Mu Donglin must have had bribed Li Haoran in some way.

Her heart went cold and she walked out.

Li Haoran was overjoyed. “Have a good talk! And take good care of Nian Nian!”

“Don’t worry, I will.” Mu Donglin nodded and followed her out the door.

In the car, Li Beinian looked at him with a wry smile. “Must have cost you a lot.”

“Not much, just the managerial authority of a piece of land.” Mu Donglin looked at her calmly. “It’s worth it in exchange for a fiancèe.”

Li Beinian sneered, unsurprised.

“It was my fault last night.” Mu Donglin looked at her. “You know that I’ve always treated Kerou like she’s my little sister. How could an older brother not get worried if his sister has fainted?”

“Psht...”

Sister?

In her past life, he’d obviously chosen his so-called sister over his legitimate wife. She was almost taken advantage of by some hooligans.

What a strong “brother-sister” bond indeed.

Li Beinian looked at him with mixed expressions of hatred and irony.

Mu Donglin was rather aroused by her expression. “Well, I can see that you’re jealous.”
