Madam Li's Identity Is Exposed Again!-Chapter 1792 - 1782: Misinterpreting His Meaning
Here it comes...
Li Beijue had anticipated that he would ask this, his thin lips pressed together, a hint of agitation flitting through his eyes. But he concealed it well, and merely said expressionlessly, "There was a bit of a dispute."
He thought he had disguised himself well, but his facade was hardly enough in front of the shrewd Old Master Li, who had already deduced the severity from his whitening knuckles.
He squinted his hale and hearty pupils, as if pondering something, and spoke, "Up until now, I still don’t think she’s suitable for you..."
His words had barely started when the man with tightly pressed thin lips forcefully interrupted him, "It’s enough that I think she is suitable! I find her very suitable!"
The old butler’s brow twitched, especially afraid the two would start a dispute again.
One should know that Old Master Jue’s body hadn’t fully recovered yet, and experts had said that he needed to relax and calmly recuperate for a period of time.
A few days ago, the second young master had already hurt Old Master Jue’s heart once over Miss Qiyun’s affair.
If the young master again caused a dispute between Miss Chi and Old Master Jue, Old Master Jue’s body might not be able to bear it.
Unexpectedly, Old Master Li didn’t get angry. He merely gave him a meaningful glance and said calmly, "You thinking it doesn’t matter, when two people are together, it needs to be the mutual intention of both. You think she’s suitable, but Miss Chi might not think you’re suitable."
"..." Li Beijue tightened his jaw at his sharp words, pressing his thin lips into a straight line.
Chi Enen... does she still find him suitable now?
Even he himself couldn’t confidently assert that Chi Enen still considered him the one.
Xi Zelie...
Li Beijue’s mind once again conjured up the image of the two holding hands, the man’s gentle bowing of his head unmistakably like the kind that stems from deep affection!
Damned, he should never have let that man off for the sake of Nuonuo!
From the start, he should have eliminated him.
Without Xi Zelie, there wouldn’t be the current situation!
He thought of 52,000 roses, then of the necklace around Chi Enen’s neck, and his temple throbbed violently with rage; the wound on the back of his hand nearly burst open from the force. He restrained the storm raging in his eyes and, in a sullen voice, said, "That’s someone else, but here with me, it’s enough that I alone deem it suitable!"
He would not give Xi Zelie a chance! Even if Chi Enen broke up with him now, he had other means to keep her by his side! Even if he had to resort to anything, he would make sure Chi Enen stayed!
Xi Zelie... don’t even think about it!
Old Master Li clearly saw his series of emotional changes, and when he saw the possessiveness in his eyes, he was somewhat appalled, yet simultaneously unsurprised.
"Is that so?" He shifted from his previous stance and didn’t rigidly demand they separate but offered a pointed reminder, "Feelings are like a kite line, one person flies, the other holds. If the holder lets it out too loosely, the kite line will eventually be used up. If they grip it too tightly, the kite line will ultimately snap. Whether flying kites or in relationships, the one capable of keeping the kite long-term is the winner."
Li Beijue took his words, obstinately saying, "So this story teaches us a lesson: it’s safest to keep the kite in your own hands. Don’t let it out, and you won’t fear the line running out, nor worry about the line snapping!"
Old Master Li truly wanted to hammer him with the Dragon Head Crutch in his hand, is this the meaning he conveyed? He was clearly talking about how relationships cannot be handled with just forcefulness!
