Thinking about it, it made sense. Although she had been bullied in the Qiao family, she had never experienced such an unbearable experience.
There was a reason for tonightâs incident. It was impossible for Lin Xian to directly call Qiao Mu to the villa in the suburbs. It was obvious that someone had pulled strings.
Li Yanâs cold eyes darkened when he thought of Qiao Ya who was beside Lin Xian at the banquet that day.
At this moment, the phone in his pocket vibrated. When Li Yan saw the incoming call, his thin lips curled up coldly. His deep, cold eyes were filled with endless coldness. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
He went to the balcony and picked up the phone.
âMayor Lin, is there something you need from me?â
âLi Yan! How dare you!â Mayor Lin Changhuaâs furious voice sounded from the other end of the phone. â Youâre so arrogant that you dare to talk to my son. I think youâre courting death! If anything happens to my son, I want your Li family to be buried with him!â
Faced with Lin Changhuaâs anger, Li Yanâs tone was very lazy. â Mayor Lin, youâre really angry. I heard that the mayorâs son broke the law and was taken away by Chief Su. What does this have to do with me? â
â Donât use Chief Su as an excuse. Even if I donât get along with him, you canât take advantage of the situation. Let me tell you, if you dare to touch my son, Iâll make sure you canât stay in Beijing! â
Li Yan chuckled softly. â Mayor Lin, I heard that your sonâs mental state was affected by drugs, which led to his self-harm. You canât pin the crime on me without evidence. â
âYou!â âLi Yan, no matter how powerful you are, youâre still overseas!â Lin Changhua roared in anger. This is my territory, just you wait!â
âYour territory?
Li Yanâs expression was unusually cold in the night. His voice was sinister. â Mayor Lin, Iâll wait and see. Iâd like to see if you can make the decision in Beijing!
In the room, Qiao Mu suddenly woke up with a start, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.
After a while, she realized that she was lying on Li Yanâs bed.
After making sure that the nightmare was over, he heaved a sigh of relief.
âYouâre awake?â A voice sounded from beside the bed.
She turned her head and saw Li Yanâs expressionless face.
Qiao Muâs emotions had already stabilized. The series of events that happened tonight slowly squeezed into her mind.
She looked at him with sincere gratitude. ââUncle, thank you for saving me.â
âAnd then?â
And then?
Qiao Mu blinked her large eyes blankly.
Li Yan raised his eyebrows slightly. â Little thing, do you think youâll be fine just because you said thank you? â
Qiao Mu pursed her lips. He had done a good deed, so why couldnât he be more generous?!
She looked at him innocently and said softly, â Uncle, Iâm yours. Shouldnât you save me? â
This self-righteous toneâ¦
Li Yan narrowed his long and narrow eyes and stared at her with a deep gaze.
After a while, he said,âYou have a sharp tongue!â
The emotions on his face were unclear, and one could not see any anger, but Qiao Mu could vaguely sense a trace of unease.
The manâs large hand landed on her head and ruffled her messy hair. â Go take a shower and come out for dinner. â
Qiao Mu nodded. Then, in the next second, she heard the manâs cold voice again. âAfter that, weâll settle the score properly!â
Settle accounts? What debt?
Qiao Muâs body instantly stiffened. She had already been bullied, yet he still dared to settle scores with her?
