BXBX NOVEL Chapter 220: He Misuses Proverbs
Li Beijue was dominant and strong-willed, but certainly not of low IQ. He was a verified genius, and the moment he saw the little lady looking at him with mischief in her laugh, he knew she was surely scoffing at him in her mind!
And not just scoffing quietly!
His proud falcon-like eyes suddenly narrowed, and he threatened in a low voice, “Chi Enen, you better hope I don’t find out what you’re thinking because if 1 do, I will make sure you regret it!”
“…You know what I’m thinking?” Chi Enen felt a chill run down her back, startled by his scare.
Li Beijue glared at her fiercely, and said irritably, “The way you’re looking at me with that pig-faced grin tells me your intentions aren’t pure!”
Chi Enen was speechless for a moment—people say, ‘a pig-faced grin, but loud and clear inside,’ which describes someone pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. He was completely misinterpreting it.
At this time.
A scream came from downstairs.
Gu Qjanci’s sharp and angry curses drifted upward, “Wang Jian, 1 warn you, if you have a problem, take it up with me. Let go of Xixi!”
Gu Xixi?!
Chi Enen suddenly looked towards the stairs.
Sure enough.
Wang Jian had somehow let go of Gu Qjanci’s hair and now was grabbing Gu Xixi’s arm. Gu Xixi’s face was pale with fright, her eyes red-rimmed; she struggled several times but couldn’t break free from Wang Jian’s grip.
“What are you going to do about it if I don’t let her go?”
“You made me wear a cuckold hat, there has to be compensation. Let’s have your younger sister make it up to me!”
“If you agree to have your younger sister compensate me, I won’t make a fuss about you embarrassing me. Otherwise…”
Gu Qjanci’s eyes were filled with rage as she refused without a second thought, “In your dreams!”
“Let my younger sister go; she knows nothing!”
Wang Jian loved seeing her trampled upon, as if he were playing a game of cat and mouse. He tilted up his chin smugly and said, “Sure, I can let her go. Kneel and apologize to me, and I’ll release her.”
The color drained from Gu Qianci’s face in an instant. She first closed her eyes, then opened them as if she had made a resolution. Ignoring the onlookers’ gazes, she forced a smile at the corner of her mouth and agreed, “Fine, I’ll kneel for you.”
“Sister, don’t!” Gu Xixi said through her tears, shaking her head desperately.
Wang Jian sneered and slapped Gu Xixi’s tender face, “Your sister already agreed, stop making a fuss!”
The moment he raised his hand, Gu Qianci almost lunged forward, furiously roaring, “Wang Jian, don’t you dare touch my sister!”
Wang Jian, holding onto Gu Xixi, turned to look at her with his triangle-shaped eyes filled with malice, “Then hurry up and kneel to apologize to me, old man, and 1 won’t hurt your sis.”
“Sister…”
“Don’t talk!” Fearing Wang Jian might strike again, Gu Qianci felt utterly humiliated. But she knew well that Wang Jian was wealthy and powerful in Capital City, and she and Gu Xixi were no match for him. Today, Wang Jian was determined to humiliate her. As long as she complied, perhaps he would let Xixi go. But if she didn’t comply…
Gu Qianci clenched her fist tight, as a great sense of humiliation weighed on her heart. Yet facing Gu Xixi, she had to endure! If she couldn’t bear it, what would become of Xixi? She had already endured so much; she might as well take everything upon herself!
“Hurry up and kneel…” Wang Jian grinning, looked forward to the show, occasionally sneering as he urged her on.
