“Oh.” Chi Enen foolishly took up the spoon and began to eat, while covertly watching him.

It was the spoon she had used, still smeared with her saliva, and Li Beijue had just used it directly.

Did this count as an indirect kiss?

She didn’t even know how many times she had kissed this man directly, but in this moment, Chi Enen felt a peculiar surge of emotion. Her cheeks were burning up, which made her heartbeat accelerate to a flutter.

Stop beating!

She suppressed her drumming pulse, drew in a couple of deep breaths, and finally settled down.

After finishing the pineapple rice, the man who had been keeping a cold face seemed to be in a much better mood. He even offered to accompany her to the Night Market.

Chi Enen couldn’t have been happier—she had finally come to the seaside and didn’t want to return to the hotel so soon. Nevertheless, she hadn’t forgotten that the man beside her was a very busy person. She looked up at him and said, “I might browse for a while longer, are you sure you want to join me? Don’t you have work to do? If you’re busy, there’s no need to keep me company. You can go about your business, and Butler Huo can stay with me.”

What did this woman mean? With a darkening gaze, Li Beijue sharply questioned her, “Chi Enen, are you worried I have urgent matters to attend to, or are you eager for me to be busy so that I won’t disturb you?”

Caught with her subtle intentions exposed, she felt somewhat guilty and averted her gaze, denying it, “No, that’s not it. 1 just heard from Butler Huo that you’re here in Country W for an important meeting, and 1 didn’t want to hold you up.”

Butler Huo.

Butler Huo.

From just now till now, she had mentioned Huo Yi’s name more than three times, and for some reason, Li Beijue felt a discomfort welling up inside of him. The clear skies on his face threatened to turn stormy once again. He forcefully grabbed the little lady’s wrist, his fingers tightening as he said with restrained emotion, “Do you trust Huo Yi that much?”

Although Chi Enen was confused by his questioning, her animal instincts still made her sense danger. She cleverly sidestepped the interrogation and looked at him, “Isn’t Butler Huo your man? Shouldn’t I trust him?”

Pleased by her words “your man”, Li Beijue’s thin lips pursed slightly, and the storm that was about to gather in the depths of his eyes instantly dissipated completely.

He released Chi Enen’s wrist, put his hands in his pockets, and lifted his chin with a cold expression, “He is my man, and you should remember that. Only my people are worth trusting!”

“…” Emma, crazy much!

Chi Enen, speechless, turned away and took the lead moving forward, starting to enjoy the Night Market.

With Li Beijue in a better mood, his attitude improved as well. Amazingly, he accompanied her from one shop to the next without a hint of impatience.

Finally, Chi Enen stopped in front of a stall selling small ornaments. Crouching down, she sifted through the items for a while, picked up a pair of stud earrings and, holding them up like a treasured possession, asked him, “Li Beijue, what do you think of these?”

“They’re so-so.” For Lord Li, who was used to seeing fine things, saying “so-so” to a pair of trinkets that obviously weren’t worth much was already quite generous.

In his eyes, the pair of pearl earrings Chi Enen was holding could only be described as crudely made. Their only redeeming quality was that they weren’t garish.

Chi Enen pouted, took another look at the earrings in her hand, and the more she looked, the more she liked them.. She stood up and asked the boss of the stall, “Boss, how much are these?”
