The lift went up to the 11th floor. Wrapping his arms around her, Li Beijue paused his steps in front of the door of a room.

“Take this.”

A metallic card was tucked into Chi Enen’s hands.

“What is this?”

“Are you really a fool? Or are you faking it? I really don’t know how you survived in the city till now without being conned by others?!”

Li Beijue snatched the metallic card in her hands and swiped it on the metallic machine on the door.

Click.

There was a sound and the door opened.

“The security facilities at Bauhinia Garden are the best in the city. One needs to have an access card to enter the rooms here. The lift utilizes a high-tech facial recognition system. Other than the residents of this building, other people cannot come in. It is absolutely safe here. Also, there is a supermarket at the lobby. You can buy your groceries and household supplies there by using your access card to swipe and make the purchases. Each card’s spending limit is one hundred thousand yuan. You can top up at the counter when the funds inside are running low. I have not used the funds in this card. You can use it.”

Chi Enen was stunned as this was the first time that she heard of using the room access card to make purchases at the supermarket. They could simply take the purchases away afterwards. However, she soon realized that something was not quite right.

He gifted her a diamond ring and a room access card. What exactly was he trying to do?

“Li… ”

The man beside him had already entered the room first.

Chi Enen had no choice but to follow.

“Li Beijue, I… ”

“Shh.” The man walking in front of her paused his steps. “See whether you like it?”

Chi Enen looked at where his hand was pointing at. The entire apartment was renovated in simple hues of black and white. It was a classic and modern design. Dozens of soft toy bolsters were piled on a ring-shaped sofa. They were very colorful and seemed out of place in the house that had a low-key and luxurious style.

Chi Enen could not help clenching her fists tightly. She did not even realize that her fingernails were piercing into her flesh.

She stared at the soft toy bolsters on the sofa and pursed the corners of her lips tightly.

In the past, she loved soft toys and always liked to buy them home and dump them on the sofa. She did not expect Li Beijue to remember.

“I’m asking you whether you like it?”

Her slightly cold hands had been forcefully yanked by someone, sending currents through her fingers and numbing her. Chi Enen recovered from her senses abruptly and withdrew her hands. There was a strong current in her eyes.

“Young Master Jue.”

She took a breath and looked at the man in a stern and serious manner. That man seemed unhappy that she withdrew her hands.

“Can we have a chat?”

Li Beijue restrained the look in his eyes. He cast a glance at Si Chen, who had been sizing up the renovation of the house. “Go out.”

At the sight of the strange atmosphere between the two, Si Chen sensibly left the apartment. He even closed the doors for them considerately.

Li Beijue sat on the sofa with a domineering aura. He stretched out his hands. “Come over here.”

Chi Enen was still hesitating.

“Didn’t you want to talk to me? Come over, sit beside me. I will talk to you.”

“Okay.”

Chi Enen sat down. However, she did not sit beside him. She sat opposite him.

However, the sofa was ring-shaped. There was no difference between sitting beside or opposite the person. At most, one would feel better.

Initially, she had thought that Li Beijue would insist that she sit near him. Unexpectedly, he seemed oblivious to this detail. He crossed his legs, looking obstinate and domineering. “Speak. What do you wish to talk about?”

His big hands waved and hooked onto a strand of her long hair. He was playing with it. He was as charming as ever. The atmosphere could not get more ambiguous than this.

Chi Enen endured and emphasized calmly, “Li Beijue, don’t do that. I’m serious about having a talk with you.”

“Psst. Sorry. It’s the exact opposite for me. Besides the bed, I don’t wish to talk to you about anything. Anyway, you are always repeating yourself with those pretentious words.”
