Chapter 199: Let’s Have a Good Talk
Translator: 549690339
He had a chilling expression, his voice low and stern, “If you have that kind of sly thought again, I’ll be the first to slap you dead!”
Having said that, Li Beiting took the coat and assertively helped her put it on, not allowing her the slightest bit of resistance.
Xu Chaomu happened to be leaning on the windowsill and she caught sight of Li Beiting and Yu Weiwei instantly.
Li Beiting was helping Yu Weiwei put on her coat, and Weiwei had an unwilling look on her face.
Ah, truly envious.
It’s so nice to have Uncle Beiting.
Suddenly, she rembered the words Li Beiting had said to Shen Chi in the hospital, and she imdiately felt a stone blocking her heart.
She thought that she needed to take the initiative to find Li Beiting.
“Li Beiting, I don’t want the clothes you bought , if you keep this up, I’m going to tell my dad when I get ho,” Yu Weiwei continued to be petulant with Li Beiting.
Li Beiting raised an eyebrow, “Are you threatening ? Do you want to take you to see your dad? I’d be quite happy to.”
Yu Weiwei was infuriated, unable to use any tricks against such a scoundrel.
“Alright, go to class and don’t delay your studies. Rember, no scheming!” Li Beiting warned.
Having said that, Li Beiting headed towards his Maserati.
With a thumbs-down, Yu Weiwei made a gesture of disdain behind his back, huffed, and ran off.
Of course, later on, Yu Weiwei climbed the wall in the middle of the night, slipped into the academic affairs office, and in the last half hour before the deadline, secretly changed her application choices.
Quick as lightning, without anyone noticing.
Xu Chaomu sneaked downstairs and just as Li Beiting was about to open his car door, she called out, “Hey, Li Beiting, I have sothing to say to you.”
Li Beiting was in a good mood that day, a smile playing on his eyes.
“Show so respect, call ‘Bro’ or ‘President Li’.”
“I’m not giving you that satisfaction, considering I didn’t call you a bastard is already giving you face.”
Li Beiting’s face was full of exasperation, Xu Chaomu and Yu Weiwei, truly two little witches.
“Do you really dislike ?”
Li Beiting looked at her leisurely, his smile beca gentle, his casual white outfit making him look vigorous.
He actually knew that he had said a lot of unpleasant things to her before.
The sun shone on Li Beiting’s face, causing Xu Chaomu to squint her eyes too.
She suddenly rembered the first ti she t Li Beiting, she had an argunt with Shen Chi, and he took her ho.
No wonder people say, ‘If life was like the first encounter.’
“I don’t dislike you that much, Li Beiting, let’s have a proper talk,” she said.
“Okay.”
Li Beiting agreed imdiately, this was the first ti Xu Chaomu had taken the initiative to find him.
Xu Chaomu chose a very quiet café; she didn’t know if it was elegant or not, but she knew it was quite expensive.
Cheating Li Beiting out of money made her happy.
After ordering two cups of coffee, Xu Chaomu stirred her spoon, silently adding crear and sugar cubes.
“What did you want to talk about?” Li Beiting asked first.
“Li Beiting, do you rember the first ti we t?” Xu Chaomu lifted her head.
She smiled, her eyes curving like crescent moons.
Li Beiting of course rembered, and he nodded.
“That day, I had an argunt with Shen Chi, he threw away all my pretty comic books and even scolded , so annoying.”
Recalling the past, Xu Chaomu felt many a bitterness wash over her, but she kept smiling all the while.
“I know, so you ran out alone and even claid you were being trafficked by him.”
“Yeah, you rember everything.”
“Hmm, I rember everything.” Li Beiting also tugged at the corner of his mouth.
He actually liked Xu Chaomu quite a bit—her pleasant personality, her good temper, her optimism and cheerfulness, and the absence of petty tantrums. Sadly, she had given her love to the wrong person.
“Can you believe how annoying Shen Chi is? I bought those comic books with my own money, and he just threw them all away without saying a word. So domineering. At that ti, I really hated him.”
Bringing up these mories, Xu Chaomu truly looked blissful.
Suddenly, she missed her childhood.
How did she suddenly grow up?
Shen Chi was also about to settle down—get engaged, get married, have children.
It was as if it were only yesterday that she was rubbing shoulders with him, hugging him, and in a blink of an eye, he belonged to soone else.
“You’re right, Shen Chi was domineering and autocratic as a child. I rember this one ti, I lost his fountain pen, and he made compensate him with ten exactly the sa!”
“That’s just how annoying he is.”
Xu Chaomu and Li Beiting chatted on and off, mostly about Shen Chi’s faults.
Xu Chaomu wasn’t the type to speak ill of others behind their backs, but when it ca to criticizing Shen Chi, she never tired of it.
After talking for a very long ti, she lowered her head again to look at the black coffee in her cup.
“Li Beiting, you’ve said a lot to before, and actually, I understand,” Xu Chaomu said, her head down.
Li Beiting fell silent; he knew those words were not very pleasant to hear.
For Xu Chaomu, they must have been quite a ntal burden. But he had no choice but to speak frankly because there were many chasms between her and Shen Chi.
It’s just that he wouldn’t ddle in their affairs anymore in the future.
“Hmm, if you think it was unpleasant, just forget it,” Li Beiting said.
“It was a bit harsh, but what you said was true. Brother Si… it’s better for him to marry Miss Bai than to marry .” Xu Chaomu slowly stirred her coffee, “He’s the CEO of the corporation, his wife should match his status. And , I’m not suitable, I would only cause him trouble.”
“Li Beiting, I know there are many forms of loving soone. To be in each other’s company day and night is one, to grow old together is another, and to let go for the sake of the other is also a form. So, I’ve prepared myself to let go. It’s just these past few days, I felt a bit upset, that’s all.”
Li Beiting was seeing Xu Chaomu so sensible and well-spoken for the first ti and was sowhat surprised.
Of course, what she said surprised him even more.
Li Beiting nodded slightly and said indifferently, “You shouldn’t drink anymore in the future. It’s not good for a girl to drink.”
“I won’t do it anymore, I’ll take good care of myself,” Xu Chaomu said with a smile.
In the past, Shen Chi took care of her, and she didn’t have to worry about anything.
Even when eating als or drinking soup, he would prepare everything for her, not to ntion doing laundry or cooking.
But from now on, his tenderness would be directed at another woman.
The affection of one person ultimately cannot be divided between two people.
Actually, on reflection, Shen Chi had been very good to her over these eight years.
Occasionally being domineering or acting haughty towards her, he never could bear to hit her, never could bear to let anyone else bully her.
She was content.
She hoped he would be forever happy, forever.
“Chaomu, you need to take good care of yourself. You’re still young, and in the future, you’ll find soone who you love and who loves you too.”
“Thank you, I think so too. After all, I’m such a good girl, right? When the ti cos, I’ll take my ti choosing! I need to find soone as handso as President Li, right?”
Xu Chaomu’s smile was brilliant, her dark eyes sparkling with light.
Seeing her smile made Li Beiting feel a bit more relieved.
Yes, a girl as good as Chaomu will surely et a man who will love and cherish her deeply one day.
“With your sharp tongue, here, have a piece of cherry cheesecake.”
Li Beiting carefully cut a slice of cake for her, and as he looked into her clear eyes, he thought it was best that she could see things clearly.
“Li Beiting, I’ve said so much, now I need to ask you a question,” Xu Chaomu said while eating her cake and sipping her coffee.
“Go ahead.”
