Chapter 139: Li Beijue, If You Like Me, Just Say It Straight

Jiang Baobao was stunned, listening in utter disbelief.

She never imagined that the blind date partner the Mu Family arranged for Cai Xiaotang would be such a freak!

"Mr. Chen, I think you don't need to continue."

Jiang Baobao interrupted him, unable to bear it any longer; she had originally intended to properly vet him for Cai Xiaotang, but now she just wanted to find an excuse to leave quickly.

Just as her voice fell, her peripheral vision suddenly caught someone striding toward their table.

Jiang Baobao looked up abruptly, and her entire body instantly stiffened!

Li Beijue? Why was he here?

Jiang Baobao's eyes suddenly met Li Beijue's gaze, which was filled with gloom and rage, and her heart skipped a beat.

The next second, she heard Li Beijue's icy voice ring out in her ear.

"You really can't stand the loneliness! So impatient to come out and find a man!"

Li Beijue's tone was frigid, and the aura around him seemed capable of freezing someone solid.

His voice was neither loud nor soft, yet it attracted the surrounding diners, who instantly looked over with expressions full of gossip.

"Li Beijue! What nonsense are you spouting!"

Jiang Baobao felt a surge of anger at his words and slammed her hand on the table as she stood up.

Chen Zihao was also given a huge fright; his eyes swept between the two of them, and he suddenly understood, looking at Jiang Baobao with some dissatisfaction as he asked, "You... you already have a boyfriend, yet you still came out on a blind date?"

"Boyfriend? She doesn't deserve one!" Li Beijue coldly interrupted Chen Zihao, looking directly at him with a cold face and saying, "You can get lost!"

"What did you say?"

Chen Zihao frowned sharply, extremely displeased with Li Beijue's choice of words.

As soon as he spoke, he felt two sharp gazes land on him, and goosebumps instantly broke out on his back as cold sweat emerged.

This man was not someone he could afford to provoke!

Chen Zihao instantly saw the situation clearly; not daring to say another word, he turned and left.

Jiang Baobao took a deep breath, not wanting to argue with Li Beijue here, and reached out to grab her bag, intending to leave.

But she had only taken one step before someone blocked her path.

"You want to leave after I caught you? It's not that easy!"

Li Beijue looked at Jiang Baobao with disgust, his teeth clenched tightly.

"..." Jiang Baobao took a deep breath, helplessly wanting to start explaining.

But Li Beijue didn't give her a chance to speak, continuing to scold her sternly: "You keep saying you can't live without Mobai and Yanbao, but it seems you're nothing more than this! So anxious to go on blind dates, get married, and have children for other men—don't put on the act of a good mother and exploit their feelings! They don't have a mother as fickle as you!"

"Li Beijue!!!"

Jiang Baobao was infuriated by his words, her temper completely ignited.

Is this man always so arbitrary and dictatorial?

Without even asking, he was in such a rush to smear her and pin the label of being fickle on her?

Jiang Baobao felt a lump in her throat and completely lost the mood to explain.

Who does he think he is?

They are already divorced!

Even if she really did find a qualified daddy for Mobai and Yanbao, so what?

Jiang Baobao sneered and countered directly: "Even if I am here on a blind date, what does it have to do with you? Li Beijue, we are already divorced! No matter who I want to marry now, it has nothing to do with you! By what right do you come here to disturb me? If you still have any ideas about me, just say it straight out so I can reject you early and let you give up on this thought!"

"Jiang Baobao! You...!"

A hint of ruthlessness suddenly rose in the depths of Li Beijue's eyes, but realizing this was a public place, he had to suppress his anger.

Jiang Baobao sneered: "If there's nothing else, please move aside, I'm going home!"

"Do you think I'll still let you return to Li Mansion?"

Li Beijue asked back icily.

Jiang Baobao chuckled, deliberately acting indifferent as she said: "You can certainly stop me from going back, but have you thought about how you'll explain it to Mobai and Yanbao?"

"..." Li Beijue's fists clenched tightly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

Jiang Baobao, however, couldn't be bothered to say more and turned to leave without hesitation.

Li Beijue had nowhere to vent his pent-up rage; he glared at Jiang Baobao's back, his expression flashing with complexity.

Jiang Baobao did not return to Li Mansion, but instead went straight back to the Base Villa and called Cai Xiaotang.

Cai Xiaotang happened to have just gotten out of her car; seeing Jiang Baobao's call, she hurriedly answered.

"Hello? Darling, how was the blind date? Did you just brush it off and end it?"

Cai Xiaotang's tone was relaxed.

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Jiang Baobao say irritably: "How could it be as easy as you said? What kind of freak of a blind date partner did your family introduce to me?"

"What happened? Did he take advantage of you?" Cai Xiaotang's tone instantly became tense.

Jiang Baobao took a deep breath, still feeling somewhat unsettled.

After two seconds of silence, she suppressed her anger and explained the whole situation.

Cai Xiaotang was so shocked that her jaw nearly dropped.

"This... this is too much of a freak! What era is this, and he still wants to control what others wear? And considering marriage less than five minutes into meeting? It's a good thing it wasn't me! Otherwise, I would have definitely scolded him until he was drenched in blood!"

Cai Xiaotang couldn't help but feel a bit angry, helplessly rolling her eyes at the sky.

She knew that guy Mu Liusu was completely unreliable!

And he even had the nerve to tell her that it was a carefully selected blind date partner?

Cai Xiaotang thought to herself, her expression turning somewhat guilty: "Baobao, I'm sorry... I didn't expect it to be this kind of situation; if I had known it was such a freak, I would never have agreed..."

Jiang Baobao was stunned by what she said, and for a moment, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"What is there to be embarrassed about? It's a good thing it wasn't you who went today; judging by the other party's appearance, he should be a young master from a prominent family, and given your temper, you might have caused a feud between the two families right then and there, but..."

As Jiang Baobao spoke, her tone suddenly hesitated for a moment.

"What's wrong?" Cai Xiaotang immediately felt a bit nervous.

Jiang Baobao hesitated for two seconds before saying, "But I ran into Li Beijue at the restaurant today, and he... scolded your blind date away, and the two of us even had an argument..."

"Ah? This..." Cai Xiaotang's expression became even more surprised, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say.

Jiang Baobao hurriedly explained, "You don't need to worry, there's no problem between the two of us; I'm just giving you a heads-up so that if your family asks, you'll have an excuse to give them..."

"Alright, I understand." Cai Xiaotang nodded.

Just as she was about to continue speaking, she suddenly heard someone calling her name.

The two of them had no choice but to hang up the phone in a hurry.

Jiang Baobao tossed her phone aside, checked the time, and still felt a bit angry.

She still had to go back to Li Mansion...

But for the recent period of time, Li Beijue probably wouldn't give her any pleasant looks anymore, right?

Forget it, let him do as he pleases!

Anyway, she hadn't done anything wrong!
