“Lingerie?” Li Xueqing was in disbelief.
Tong Yujia said, “Wearing lingerie is better than walking around naked.”
Although she had won, she still felt suffocated inside.
Anyone with a brain could tell that Li Beinian had the ability to defeat her.
It was just that she didn’t finish playing.
The victory had been decided, but she had won with an unfair advantage.
She deflected her anger onto Li Xueqing and scorned. “Don’t tell me you want to walk around naked?”
Her words made the laughter in the crowd louder.
Li Xueqing’s face turned pale, she clenched her teeth, and her body stiffened.
During such an occasion, at such an event…
This Tong Yujia… was simply too much!
“You must accept your loss,” Fang Zhili said. “Xueqing, go and change.”
Li Xueqing’s eyes turned red and she stomped and shouted, “Mom…”
“Go.” Fang Zhili warned with her eyes. “We’ll deal with Li Beinian later.”
Her last sentence was said in a very low voice so that only the two of them could hear.
Although Li Xueqing wasn’t reconciled, she had no choice but to compromise in this large crowd.
“Sigh, Ms. Tong is really too powerful. I’m ashamed!” Li Beinian gave her a thumbs up, her face full of amazement.
Tong Yujia felt even angrier. She glared at her and turned her head.
Li Beinian slowed down and was in a good mood.
“You wretch.” Li Haoran had never felt so shameful before and he gritted his teeth. “Do you know what you just did? This is your sister. If you throw our family’s face, you’re throwing your own face too!”
“I don’t know how to play.” Li Beinian sneered. “Have you ever taught me?”
Li Haoran was even angrier. “You clearly do, why didn’t you finish playing!”
“I already said, I don’t know how to.” Although Li Beinian’s lips were curled in a smile, her eyes were cold. “Tong Yujia wanted to compete with her, but she bit on the back instead, so I’m not obliged to help save her face!”
“This isn’t about earning face for her, but for yourself!” Li Haoran was extremely disappointed. “Now that you have thrown her face in public, I don’t know what other people will say about our Li family!”
“What does that have to do with me?” Li Beinian laughed lightly. “My reputation has always been bad. It’s a great honor to be able to pull her in with me.”
Li Haoran was exasperated and simply clenched his teeth.
However, before he could move, he heard a low voice from behind him. “Why is Uncle Li so angry?”
All of Li Haoran’s actions were halted and he turned around.
Mu Donglin was standing behind him, an indifferent look on his face. “Nian Nian has performed very well. Nobody’s perfect, after all. And it’s a given for her to be nervous in front of so many people.”
Li Haoran was shocked and glanced at Li Beinian subconsciously.
How long had it been, but Mu Donglin was actually speaking up for Li Beinian now?
Li Beinian had an indifferent smile on her delicate and white face that made him angrier.
However, Mu Donglin was here.
Li Haoran only smiled awkwardly and said, “You’re right, I was confused.”
Mu Donglin’s expression was cold as he looked at Li Beinian and said slowly, “Let’s talk privately.”
Then, he turned.
Li Haoran found it even harder to believe and watched as Li Beinian was taken away by him.
It was as if… the situation was really different.
At that moment, Li Haoran didn’t know if it was a good or bad thing.
Li Beinian was taken to an empty room. Before she could react, Mu Donglin pressed her against the wall.
