Ten minutes later, Chi Enen finally managed to put on what seemed like an ethereal skirt, which was actually incredibly troublesome to wear.
Since time was pressing, Nico didn’t waste any words and hurriedly ordered someone to style her.
Makeup and hairstyling were almost done simultaneously.
Just when Li Beijue arrived, they had barely managed to finish up the last bits of her hair.
“All set, Miss Chi, take a look.”
Chi Enen opened her eyes and looked at the person in the mirror. After some fuss, she indeed looked very different from before.
“Young Master Li, what do you think?” After letting her take a look, Nico also asked for the opinion of the man who had just entered the room.
Chi Enen tugged at the hem of her skirt and turned around.
A glimmer of amazement flashed through Li Beijue’s eyes, but it quickly disappeared, and he returned to his usual demeanor, “It’s so-so.”
Nico was very satisfied with the styling she had done this time and expected a round of compliments, but was taken aback by receiving only a lukewarm response. Her smile froze on her face, but she didn’t forget who the man in front of her was, and even without receiving praise, she dared not complain.
Li Beijue didn’t care about her lack of complaints; in fact, he had never really paid attention to any woman other than Chi Enen. He walked up to the elaborately dressed little lady, with a stern face, grabbed her wrist, and pulled out a box from somewhere. Upon opening the box, a water blue dolphin bracelet caught his eye.
He took out the bracelet and personally fastened it on Chi Enen’s fair wrist. The pure white skin made the bracelet look especially beautiful, and the color of the bracelet perfectly matched the color of the skirt. The entire ensemble seemed tailor-made!
This bracelet… Chi Enen lifted her head, looking at the man in front of her.
He was looking down, his fingertips brushing the dolphins on the bracelet, then suddenly gripped her wrist tightly, raised his head with his falcon-like eyes clouded with a threatening haze, and warned, “Chi Enen, remember, never take it off again. I can tolerate it once, but that doesn’t mean I can endure it two, three times. Next time, 1 can’t even be sure if I can remain as calm as now to put it back on you.”
— Enen, don’t take it to heart with the young master; he has paranoia and sometimes can’t even control his own emotions.
The bracelet on her wrist was cool to the touch, and Chi Enen nodded with difficulty, “I understand.”
Hearing her promise, the haze in Li Beijue’s eyes dissipated somewhat, and he curved his thin lips, taking her hand, “Let’s go, the banquet is about to start.”
“Okay.”
Chi Enen followed him.
Maybe it was because she had changed into high heels, the man who usually walked very fast slowed down this time, as if deliberately accommodating her.
Just as the thought came to Chi Enen, she dismissed it like playing whack-a-mole.
Li Beijue accommodating her?
The more she thought about it, the more absurd it seemed. This man had always been willful and aloof; he probably wouldn’t notice such small details.
Even so, she still felt something unusual in her heart.
“What are you daydreaming about while you walk!”
Her wrist was suddenly tugged, and as she came back to her senses, she saw the man by her side suddenly pull her hand, his long fingers interlocking with hers, changing from holding hands to an intimate clasp.
“Stick close to me at the banquet later! Don’t chat up other men, and don’t let yourself be chatted up! Your eyes are only allowed on me, if you look at someone else I’ll gouge them out, and then 1’11 break that man’s legs!”
