“.……Probably.”

  Wang Shao looked at her sympathetically and mumbled, “It looks like Chief Mu and Eldest Young Master Mu have a good relationship.”

  Li Beinian was amazed.

  She couldn’t continue the conversation!

  What should she say!

  Li Beinian could only lower her head to eat. As though suddenly remembering something, she turned around and asked “Where’s Li Xueqing?”

  “Who knows.” Wang Shao was obviously unhappy with Li Xueqing. “She was dawdling as she did her push-ups just then. After that, she left without completing her run. We couldn’t find her.”

  As soon as she said this, she heard a shout from a soldier, “Comrade Li Beinian!”

  Li Beinian found the voice familiar. It sounded like Ma Lin.

  She turned around on hearing these words.

  “Is comrade Li Beinian here!”

  “Yes!” Li Beinian stood up. “What’s the matter?”

  \r \r \r

  “Company Commander Yang wants you to go to his office!” Ma Lin’s voice rang out loudly, everyone in the cafeteria heard it.

  Liu Wei reacted immediately, “Did you commit a crime?”

  Her words were loud, causing everyone to subtly look her way.

  Li Beinian knew that it was Mu Xichen. She straightened her back and said, “Coming.”

  “Reporting!” Feng Yiran stood up and said, “Shouldn’t we allow her to finish her food first!”

  Ma Zheng stood up as well and agreed. “Beinian has already tried her best. Leader Mu, please don’t punish her!”

  Li Beinian was amazed.

  It seemed that Mu Xichen had left a deep and dark impression on them

  When Ma Lin heard this, he replied helplessly, “The leader didn’t say what it was about. Let’s go over first.”

  “Got it!” Li Beinian put down her chopsticks and quickly walked out.

  Guan Yueyun looked at the food that Li Beinian had barely taken two bites of. Her good impression of Mu Xichen immediately vanished.

  Unexpectedly, Wang Shao also said, “There’s no such person.”

  Liu Wei glanced at her but did not speak. There was an unfathomable expression in her eyes.

  Zhao You’er also felt that something was amiss. She glanced at Liu Wei and whispered, “It doesn’t feel like they’re going to punish her…… Sister Wei, what do you think?”

  Liu Wei liked Li Beinian, but she didn’t have a good impression of Zhao You’er. Upon hearing this, Liu Wei said, “Let’s eat first and ask her when she comes back.”

  “But why had Li Xueqing gone missing? Have you seen her?” a man asked.

  Ma Zheng sneered. “She’s probably gone into hiding to throw a tantrum.”

  Guan Yueyun and Wang Shao looked at each other silently.

  After Li Xueqing had completed her push-ups, she ran in the direction of Mu Xichen who was carrying Li Beinian.

  However, after walking for a long time, there was no sign of Li Beinian or Mu Xichen. She was a little discouraged.

  She found a random place to sit down and rested for a while, but unknowingly, she fell asleep.

  When she woke up, it was silent all around.

  It was autumn and her clothes were drenched. When the wind blew, she felt a chill.

  Trying to hug herself to keep warm, Li Xueqing stood up and walked forward in a daze.

  From afar, she saw the freshly-showered Li Beinian walking towards a building not too far away.

  Li Xueqing was pleasantly surprised and followed behind her quietly.

  She watched as Li Beinian walked into the leader’s office. She looked around mysteriously before shutting the door.

  Li Beinian walked in and saw Mu Xichen sitting on the chair.

  It was rare for Mu Xichen to be in a straight suit, for he was naturally unwilling to be restrained. However, at this time, he was no longer as well-dressed as before. His collar was wide open.

  His tie hung loosely around his neck, and a few buttons around his collar had been undone, making him look even more unruly.
