Chapter 190 Love-struck? The Love Hidden in His Heart
Before long, someone started kicking him repeatedly.
Once someone starts, someone else will follow.
Before long, many of those who had been bullied by the servants rushed forward and kicked him hard.
The scene at the entrance. The guests on the first floor of Zuixianlou watched.
No one went to inform that so-called Fairy of Glass.
Half of them had been bullied by the people around Fairy Liuli, but they just hadn't informed her yet. They hadn't even thought about informing her; they just quietly watched the scene before them.
There were several private rooms on the fifth floor and above, and some people even lifted the curtains and coldly surveyed the area outside the building.
Upon seeing a familiar face, he gave a meaningful smile.
So you were one of Liuli's people, serves you right!
Others, however, watched the scene downstairs with amusement.
Oh dear, this has angered the public.
Liuli, oh Liuli, you've finally met your match!
In private room number 19 on the ninth floor, Bei Chenmu, who was drinking spiritual tea, put down his teacup after hearing the commotion below. He lifted the curtain and looked down, only to see such a lively scene. However, his gaze fell on Bai Yujin, who was leaving.
For some reason, he felt that this person looked somewhat familiar.
It felt like he'd seen it somewhere before. Bei Chenmu thought about it carefully, but couldn't remember where. In the end, he shook his head, picked up his teacup again, and started drinking. The next second, the door to the private room was pushed open.
Before the person even entered, their voice could be heard.
"Hey Wood, guess who I just saw? I'll tell you, I actually saw your cousin! Your dear cousin is here, Wood. Aren't you afraid she'll come looking for you?"
The voice carried a hint of mockery, and then the person who entered was none other than Nangong Li, Beichenmu's best friend. Nangong Li walked in with a playful expression, a sly glint in his eyes, and he went straight to sit down opposite Beichenmu.
He casually waved his sleeve, and the door to the private room closed silently.
Without any hesitation, she poured herself a cup of spiritual tea.
He crossed his legs and leisurely took a sip.
Bei Chenmu frowned, but asked casually, "Oh? Has she gotten into trouble again?"
Nangong Li put down her teacup, a playful smile playing on her lips.
"You guessed right. That scene at the entrance of Zuixianlou was with her servants. Those who were bullied by Liuli before finally got their revenge. It's said that a female cultivator beat the servant down, which gave them the chance to fight back. They wouldn't have dared to imagine it before. You wait, your good cousin is coming to find you."
Previously, it was Beichenmu who cleaned up the messes for Liuli.
This time, he wanted to see if Bei Chenmu would continue to help her.
If we continue to help her, the reputation of the Beichen family in Xiaoyao City will suffer even more.
"If you want to help her, think carefully about the damage it will do to the reputation of the Beichen family. The reputation of your Beichen family has already been greatly damaged. Think it through before you go." As she said this, Nangong Li looked at Beichen Mu seriously.
He has reminded Beichenmu many times.
Bei Chenmu continued to clean up Liuli's messes.
Even though Liuli's master is the sect leader, he is still happy to accept it.
Nangong Li never expected him to treat Liuli so well.
So good that they sacrificed their entire family.
He had heard Han mention a phrase that described Bei Chenmu's behavior before, something like "licking dog," and there was a line after it: "licking until you have nothing left." Isn't that exactly what's describing Bei Chenmu?
Nangong Li looked at him with a helpless expression.
"Wood, your aunt and uncle have already wasted their lives for you. Now that the Beichen family is in such a state, do you still want to continue like this? Just stop worrying about your cousin. Let me tell you this: your aunt and uncle have gone to the Xiao family to propose marriage so many times, and they've been rejected countless times. You should know best that in Liuli's eyes, you're just a stepping stone on her path to immortality. Or do you still want to continue? You need to know what the consequences will be!"
Nangong Li's words struck Beichenmu's heart like a heavy hammer.
His eyes dimmed slightly.
The teacup in his hand trembled slightly, betraying the turmoil in his heart.
Bei Chenmu remained silent for a moment, his gaze becoming deep and complex.
"How could I not know what you're saying? It's just that it's true I like her, but it's hard to forget this love. I've tried, but I just can't let go. Even though Ruoyue already has Senior Brother Yun Yifei by her side, I still can't forget her..."
Bei Chenmu's voice gradually lowered, filled with helplessness.
He truly loved Ruoyue, to the point of being hopelessly infatuated.
He was constantly thinking about Ruoyue, but Ruoyue...
How could Bei Chenmu not know that she was pretending to be stupid?
Even if she's pretending to be stupid, she just wants to keep him hanging on.
But he willingly allowed himself to be left hanging, and willingly cleaned up her messes.
This is Bei Chenmu's cousin, even though she is only an adopted daughter of the Xiao family.
Nangong Li fell silent upon hearing his words.
A hint of disappointment flashed across his eyes, but his heart was filled with more sorrow. In Beichenmu's eyes, there would always only be Xiao Ruoyue. Nangong Li's lips curled into a self-deprecating smile.
Even after being by his side for so many years, Mu Tou's heart only belongs to Xiao Ruoyue. What's so good about her! She only knows how to trample on and insult Mu Tou at will, while he doesn't. When will Mu Tou turn around and look at him?
Nangong Li closed her eyes to calm herself down.
He tried hard to hide the look in his eyes.
Don't let the wood see, wait until he opens his eyes again.
Thinking she was trying to persuade him, Nangong Li suddenly remembered the place Yun Tinghan had told him about after returning. She immediately moved closer to Beichen Mu, leaned down and whispered in his ear, "Brother, Tinghan told me about a great place. Why don't you come with me? It looks like a fun place, but Yun Tinghan isn't quite up to the task. He didn't invite us last time. How about just the two of us go this time? Perfect opportunity for you to forget Xiao Ruoyue."
Take this opportunity to take the position for yourself!
Nangong Li's heart was pounding. She really hoped that Beichen Mu would agree. As long as Beichen Mu agreed, she could leave at any time. Then she would get the wood sooner or later!
Upon hearing this, Bei Chenmu paused slightly, then looked up at Nangong Li in surprise.
The moment he looked up, his ear accidentally brushed against Nangong Li's lips. This brush felt as if Nangong Li was kissing Beichen Mu's ear, and the atmosphere between the two instantly became subtle.
Nangong Li's gaze fell on Beichen Mu's face, and she saw a faint blush rising on his cheeks. In that instant, Nangong Li was stunned.
A flutter ran through her heart. As she watched, Nangong Li's breathing became heavier and heavier. Even Beichen Mu noticed the change in the atmosphere between the two. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it. His ears turned red, and he nervously licked his lips.
Nangong Li was completely mesmerized, and the connection in her mind snapped.
The next second, Nangong Li blurted out without thinking.
"Hey Wood, how about we give it a try? Besides, didn't we have a childhood betrothal? Why don't we continue with the marriage arrangements between our families?"
As soon as Nangong Li finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire private room seemed to freeze at that moment.
Bei Chenmu stared wide-eyed at Nangong Li, his face filled with shock, as if he couldn't believe his ears.
