novelA Man Has to Be Upstanding and Dauntless
| ← Ch.0365 | Ch.0367 → |
Marry... him?
Was this a proposal?
Li Beinian didn't know how to react and looked at him in shock.
This was really too sudden!
Mu Xichen's lips twitched and he said sarcastically, "You're not willing?"
Li Beinian guessed that he was angry and quickly said, "No... It's just... Don't you think it's too sudden?"
She was still engaged to Mu Donglin and their relationship did not have much progress. It did not seem to be at a stage where marriage could be considered.
Mu Xichen asked her sarcastically, "If you don't want to marry me, why did you try to seduce me?"
Li Beinian's face immediately turned red.
Mu Xichen narrowed his eyes as he narrowly massaged her face and leaned forward. His nose touched hers and their breaths were entangled.
"My grandpa taught me from a young age that a man has to be upstanding and dauntless." He stared at her and said softly, "He has to love his family, wife, and children."
Mu Xichen's voice was low and hoarse. As he spoke, she felt his warm breath on her face.
He said, "He can only love one person. Once he falls in love with someone, he has to love her wholeheartedly."
"If I love her, she has to love me back." Mu Xichen gently let her go."I only ask that my future wife is loyal to me."
Li Beinian felt that her heart was about to explode.
The sweet feeling overwhelmed her body. She felt as if she was melting and this made her nervous.
Holding his face with her hands, Li Beinian gently kissed him and said seriously, "I love you, Ah Chen."
Ah Chen.
She called his name softly. However, it felt like a missile struck his heart violently.
Mu Xichen's entire body stiffened and his breathing seemed to slow down as if he was hurting.
Li Beinian noticed that he was tensing up and hugged him again. She whispered seriously, "I seemed to have started loving you since a long time ago."
She only didn't know then.
She was probably hypnotized by someone that she forgot Mu Xichen completely.
However, those fragments of the past could not deceive her.
Not only did she know him in her past life, but they also were not strangers.
Mu Xichen felt that there was something stuck in his throat.
The words that she uttered in her dream replayed in his mind.
On the car to Shengnan Island, she also called Mu Donglin in her dream.
When she almost drowned and her life was in danger, she was still thinking and pining for Mu Donglin.
"Mu Donglin. I love Mu Donglin so much that I would die for him..."
Her soft voice was full of love.
However, now she was in another man's arms and claiming that she loved him.
Mu Xichen only found it absurd. He folded his lips and a sour feeling consumed his heart.
He lightly pushed her away.
Mu Xichen looked at her and said sarcastically, "It's a pity that you're not with Mu Donglin."
She was playing with him.
She was a two-faced hypocrite.
After that, Mu Xichen turned to walk away.
Li Beinian did not expect this to happen at all. She froze for a moment before pulling him back angrily."What do you mean?"
Mu Xichen's short hair was still dripping wet. He glanced at her hand and quickly pulled away. Slowly, he said, "Let's not meet again in the future."
