Chapter 53: Niannian Didn’t Do It On Purpose Either

Li Beinian was rather shocked to see her smile. However, she remained composed and walked towards them. “h.e.l.lo, Auntie.”

In her previous lifetime, Wu Meiya absolutely detested her.

Lin Kerou and Li Xueqing had deliberately ruined Li Beinian and sculpted her into a lowly, incompetent, trashy, cheap and shameless gangster.

Compared to Li Beinian, Lin Kerou was a demure beauty who won the compliments of many while Li Xueqing was the “Nation’s G.o.ddess” who shone brightly on the television screen.

Wu Meiya once said, “Kerou is smart while Xueqing is meticulous and understanding. What about you? You’re like a parasite who lives each day as it pa.s.ses without any ambitions. Donglin would be extremely unlucky if he were to marry you!”

However, Li Beinian refused to give up.

The more Wu Meiya criticized her, the more she tried to prove her worth.

She believed that she could do it if others could.

However, no one bothered to acknowledge her efforts or give her recognition, even after she had learned everything.

Seemingly in high spirits, Wu Meiya grinned at Li Beinian and said, “You guys arrived at the same time as Donglin, right? Have you guys seen him?”

“Yes, we have. Donglin is becoming more and more handsome. Our Niannian is too insensible. If not for Donglin, she would probably still be detained in the police station.”

Li Beinian wished she could roll her eyes at her.

Our Niannian?

Am I that close to her?

Besides, they did not even say anything. Why is she so eager to spill the beans?

She must be really looking forward to seeing my engagement get called off!

Greatly taken aback, Wu Meiya asked, “Niannian was at the police station? What happened?”

Li Haoran thought to himself in astonishment, so she does not know about it?

Pretending to realize that she had something wrong, she said awkwardly, “So… you still don’t know about it?”

“What exactly happened? How did Niannian end up in the police station for no reason? Donglin didn’t mention it to me either,” Wu Meiya said as her face grew sullen.

“Well… ” Appearing to be stuck in a dilemma, Fang Zhili turned to look at her husband, seemingly trying to call for help.

Li Haoran glanced at Li Beinian with a tensed face and said, “Niannian, you’d better explain it yourself.”

Li Beinian scoffed sarcastically and stared at them in contempt. “What do you guys want me to say? Do you want me to say that I was too poor to survive so I went to steal some money and ended up getting detained in the police station?”

“You’d better set your att.i.tude straight. You’re here to apologize for your mistakes! This is the Mu Family Mansion!” Li Haoran hollered angrily.

Fang Zhili hurriedly stood up and pressed Li Haoran’s shoulder gently. “Simmer down, you’ve scared her. Niannian didn’t do it on purpose anyway.”

However, her words had sparked an opposite reaction.

Li Haoran stood up and hollered, “Since you did something wrong, you ought to act like you’re remorseful. Put that nonchalant att.i.tude of yours away and stop embarra.s.sing yourself!”

Li Beinian snorted with laughter and retorted with folded arms, “What mistakes have I committed? I didn’t do anything wrong at all. Why do I have to apologize?”

“You… ” Li Haoran gritted his teeth angrily.

Fang Zhili immediately pulled him back and tried to persuade Li Beinian, “Niannian, didn’t we already agree that you’ll put on a good att.i.tude so that your father will treat you well?”

They were suddenly interrupted by Wu Meiya. “Did Niannian commit theft? Didn’t Niannian nab a thief? The police station has already sent us a silk banner to reward her for her bravery and achievement,” Wu Meiya said in bewilderment.
