Chapter 655 Wife, that night I really thought it was you
uptly from the chair, putting distance between himself and Jian Ningyi.Li Bochen pursed his lips, refusing to speak, his gaze fixed on Old Master Li.Being completely ignored, Jian Ningyi felt a pang o...Li Wenle rarely saw Li Jiancheng like this, so serious. He pouted and started crying!
"Daddy bad! Bad daddy, give me my toy back!"
Upon seeing this, Yu Ran couldn't help but laugh. "Second brother, it's not a new thing that LeLe and Jian Ningyi aren't close. Look at you scaring the child! Today is his birthday."
"Your words are wrong, sister-in-law. There's no mother who doesn't love her child; you must have never experienced it because you haven't given birth to a child for your brother."
Li Jiancheng broke into a smile, but the words that tumbled from his lips were like a sharp knife, piercing Yu Lan's heart and turning her face pale.
Lo Ningxi looked at the people from the Li family, each with ulterior motives, and raised her eyebrows slightly. "Perhaps I should go up and have a look. That longevity lock is intricately designed, and I have some details to tell Madam Li."
After Luo Ningxi finished speaking, she followed Jian Ningyi upstairs, completely ignoring the strange looks from the few people downstairs.
……
The second floor of the old house.
Jian Ningyi opened the exquisite sandalwood box in her hand, and the longevity lock sent by Luo Ningxi lay quietly within.
Her long, beautiful eyes sparkled with excitement, suppressing the trembling of her fingertips. She picked up the longevity lock in the light and examined it for a few moments, then opened the drawer beside her, carefully placing the pre-cut longevity lock she had prepared into the box.
The old man loves Yueyue dearly. If he saw that Luoningxi sent a broken longevity lock, he would definitely be furious!
Having done everything, Jian Ning's beautiful lips curled into a cold smile.
Just then, the door behind him suddenly opened, and a magnetically cold voice drifted in.
"What are you doing"
Jian Ningyi was startled and quickly looked back, finding Li Bochen leaning against the door, his eyes gazing at her with an unreadable expression.
How did he come here
Jian Ning's hand trembled slightly, her heart pounding in her chest. She accidentally brushed against the nearby jade box, and the small bell on the long life lock jingled softly.
Crisp and pleasant to hear.
Li Bochen walked straight over, his gaze passing over Jian Ningyi to look at the cabinet. He just happened to see the long life lock inside.
Jian Ning's heart skipped a beat, fearing that Li Bochen would discover something. She proactively stepped forward and approached Li Bochen, her voice soft and suggestive.
"Achun, how did you come to be here"
Li Bochen's face remained composed as he calmly sidestepped her, walking to the cabinet. "Now it's my turn to ask you questions."
Seeing the man subconsciously distance himself, Jian Ningyi's face flashed with a trace of hurt. She unwillingly opened her mouth, "I just wanted to see how the lock design was. What are you nervous about Are you afraid that I will get my hands on you and frame your Luo Ningxi"
"I'm not nervous about her, am I making you nervous"
Li Bochen propped his hands on the cabinet where the longevity lock was placed, his tall figure completely blocking Jian Ningyi's line of sight. His voice was languid and teasing.
Jian Ningyi's face instantly paled, and her eyes reddened in an instant.
She grabbed onto Li Bichen's sleeve, just about to speak when a woman's cold voice suddenly came from the doorway.
"Excuse me for interrupting you two."
Luningxi originally wanted to follow up and find a restroom, but she happened to stumble upon this scene!
The two of them seemed to be saying something, their postures intimate. Jian Ningyi was even paler, tugging at the man's sleeve pitifully.
Luo Ningxi's eyes flickered, suppressing the nausea in her stomach, she stood there with a half-smile, looking at them. "I just wanted to remind Madam Li that the silver lock cannot be touched directly by hand, otherwise it will affect the luster of the jewelry. I didn't expect to interrupt your good time..."
She hesitated, glancing at Li Bochen's eyes as calm and deep as still water. She couldn't help but feel a pang of wistfulness.
At this moment, being able to remain calm is incredible. This scoundrel probably doesn't even know how many times he's done something this shameless!
Seeing Luo Ningxi coming over, Jian Nini not only didn't restrain herself but proactively approached Li Bochen, her fox eyes brimming with provocation!
"Thank you, Miss Luo, for reminding me. It's just a small trinket. Even if it loses its shine, it doesn't matter. I can just get a new one."
Luo Ningxi smirked, her clear eyes too lazy to even acknowledge them. She retorted without any politeness, “Oh, by the way, I just heard Yu Ran saying that your son doesn't get along with you. Your husband’s face isn’t looking so good already. I wonder what he’ll think when he sees this scene.”
"You!"
"Alright." Li Bichen raised his hand and closed the lacquered box containing the longevity lock, his gaze falling on Luo Ningxi. He spoke coldly, "Go down first. The master will be here soon."
Having said that, he turned and left the bedroom. This action, seen by Luo Ningxi, was undoubtedly a cover-up, a way to help Jian Ningyi out of the predicament!
Lu Ningxi pursed her lips and gave Jian Ningyi a disdainful smile before turning to follow him out.
The two stood in silence, walking side by side down the quiet corridor.
Finally, it was still Li Bochen's low voice that came over slowly, "I'll have someone send you back, the Li family is not as simple as you think."
"Is Young Master Li speaking to me It was Madam Li Er who invited me here, I can't possibly disregard her face, can I As for what just happened..."
Luo Ningxi stopped in her tracks, turning her face innocently to look at the man. "Don't worry," she said, "even if you two were entangled in bed just now, I wouldn't say anything..."
Li Bochen's face suddenly darkened. He turned around, grabbed Luo Ningxi by the shoulder, and pressed her against the wall!
"Well, now you're just getting angry"
Luo Ningxi looked at the man's sinister face and the mockery in her eyes deepened, "Yes, I forgot, she's pregnant now, you wouldn't dare to lay a hand on her, would you"
Li Bochen suppressed his anger with great effort, tightening his grip on Luo Ningxi's shoulder. "Jian Ningyi is a lunatic. She called you over just to make things difficult for you, and that night I really thought it was you…"face grew increasingly worse, being forced back step by step by Luo Ningxi!Li Bochen's deep brows rose subtly, fortunately, this woman didn't intend to let herself be wronged.Just then, the backstage...
