Hidden Marriage 99 Days: Please Restrain Yourself

“Hubby… ”

Fang Zhili stared at Li Haoran worriedly even though she was extremely touched by her words.

“Niannian… ”

“Alright, it’s good that we’ve cleared the misunderstanding. Niannian is a good kid. It’s been hard on you in the past,” said Wu Meiya.

Wu Meiya gazed at Li Beinian sympathetically and patted the back of her hand. She continued, “However, he’s your father and always will be. You’ve only returned to the Li Family recently and it’s only normal for your father to not understand you well. Just forgive him. He doesn’t have it easy either.”

Appearing a little aggrieved, Li Beinian stared at Wu Meiya before turning to look at Fang Zhili. “Um… ”

Wu Meiya looked at Fang Zhili and said with a look of displeasure, “It’s not that I want to chide you but Zhili, you ought to be more understanding and get to know Niannian better.”

Greatly taken aback, Fang Zhili said with an awkward smile, “Yeah, I indeed haven’t been paying enough attention to her. This won’t happen again in the future.”

Wu Meiya smiled in satisfaction before pulling Li Beinian down onto the couch.

Li Beinian was rather surprised and flattered.

In her previous lifetime, Wu Meiya treated her like a speck of dust and had never taken her seriously before.

“Mother,” said an alluring male voice.

Li Beinian’s body stiffened upon hearing his voice.

Mu Donglin glanced at Li Beinian calmly and said, “I heard that Xichen is back.”

“Yeah, he’s probably in the study. Go take a look. Don’t let him argue with your father. Your father is old in his years now and I doubt he’d be able to fight Xichen if they were to get physical.”

Li Beinian smiled in her heart.

It seems things are not that peaceful in this family.

After interacting with them for a few times, she reckoned that Mu Xichen was not one to get violent easily. Not to mention, Mu Che was his father.

Wu Meiya was probably just trying to smear his name by saying that in front of them.

“Okay.”

Mu Donglin expressed assent calmly before turning around, his tall body appearing refined and graceful.

Li Beinian stared at him emotionally.

It is rather strange that Mu Donglin did not treat me with animosity!

“Niannian, I heard that you’re taking extra lessons lately. Are you going to sit for the university entrance exam?”

Li Beinian glanced at Wu Meiya and nodded smilingly.

Wu Meiya was greatly taken aback after hearing about Li Beinian’s plans to study design and as well as the university that she was interested in attending. She also gave Li Beinian her enthusiastic support.

Fang Zhili knew right from the start that she wanted to attend Guang City Theatrics Academy but she did not expect her to have such a detailed plan.

If it were yesterday, she would have sneered when she heard her plans.

However… she had no choice but to start taking Li Beinian seriously.

It seems, she was much wiser than she had imagined.

“Madam, please have your meal.”

“Alright let’s go. Let’s taste the food prepared by the culinary master whom Donglin has especially hired,” Wu Meiya said proudly while pulling Li Beinian along enthusiastically.

Li Beinian was feeling uneasy and was trying her best to pretend to be happy. She only relaxed when they were at the dining table.

The servants served up the hot towels which were meant for them to wipe their hands with. They then placed the expensive and exquisite dishes in the middle of the table and covered them with crystal lids. They were so upscale that they could be called ostentatious.

It was just a normal fare for the Mu Family.

A while later, Mu Donglin and Mu Che finally arrived.

Mu Donglin immediately sat beside Li Beinian even though she was unclear if he had done it deliberately or not.

Wu Meiya and Mu Che looked at each other and smiled gleefully.
