Chapter 899: Waiting for A New Day, Or Death (6)
Li Beinian was worried that Mu Xichen would cause trouble for Liu Wei. Hence, she softened her tone and spoke in a timid manner.
There were quite a number of people in the filming crew, and those who didn’t personally know Li Beinian initially thought of her as an aloof prima donna.
Later on, having interacted with her, they realized that although she wasn’t as difficult to get along with as they had imagined, she was still a strong woman.
Hence, when she suddenly fainted today, even though it was only for a short time, everyone was shocked and rushed up to check on her.
Unexpectedly, not only did they see Li Beinian pass out today, on top of this they saw her speaking so gently and submissively. When she gazed at Mu Xichen, her eyes were full of warmth and love. It was a real eye-opener for all of them.
However, what was even more shocking was yet to come.
Mu Xichen glanced at Li Beinian and his gaze fell on the dark circles that were just beginning to show under her eyes.
His expression clouded over..
Li Beinian circled her arms around his and whispered, “What did you just say to them?”
Why did the atmosphere seem a little tense?
Her heartbeat quickened as she looked at Liu Wei and mouthed, “What’s going on?”
Liu Wei smiled apologetically and said, “I guess I used too much force, so Nian Nian…”
“Got it.” Mu Xichen did not bother to look at Liu Wei. He reached out and wrapped his arms around Li Beinian’s waist. “Thank you. I’ll take her to the hospital.”
Li Beinian was flabbergasted.
“That’s not necessary, I’m fine. I was only feeling a little dizzy but I’m fine now…”
“Shush.” Mu Xichen placed his hand firmly on her head and marched her towards the exit.
Li Beinian met his gaze and froze at once.
Hence, just like this, the man took her hand and led her out.
Those who were used to seeing Li Beinian’s strong and unyielding attitude click their tongues in amazement.
Indeed, as the saying goes, there is always someone more powerful. It was only right that a strong woman should be suppressed by a strong man.
Undoubtedly, Mu Xichen was such a man.
With her head lowered, Li Beinian was hustled away from the location.
The film studio complex was crawling with reporters and paparazzi.
Being very popular recently, Li Beinian was easily recognized.
Having spotted the couple in this manner, many of them picked up their phones to snap photographs. Soon, it was shared on the public platform. At the same time that the netizens were complaining about this public display of affection, some of them also noticed that Li Beinian wasn’t looking like she was in the best of health, and on the other hand, Mu Xichen’s expression was somewhat gloomy.
Many people suspected that they had quarreled, but there was no such news. Soon, people started to gossip about Li Beinian fainting on the set.
As the protagonists, Mu Xichen and Li Beinian knew nothing about this.
It was a rare occasion for Li Beinian to be so obedient. After being taken to the passenger seat of the black Land Rover, she finally let out a yawn.
Mu Xichen was about to start the car and drive her to the hospital. Noticing the yawn, he asked, “Are you tired?”
“I’m fine.” Li Beinian said with a slightly nasal voice. “I’m just tired. I didn’t sleep much last night, so I’m not at my best today.”
“Didn’t sleep much last night?” Mu Xichen glanced at her.
Li Beinian had a nightmare last night. When she woke up in the early morning, she had given him a call but soon after, she had fallen asleep again.
From her breathing, it was obvious that she was sleeping very soundly.
