Chapter 2489 2493
li haoze's meaning was clear. he was relying on the li family's influence in europe to surpass the mu family, and he wanted to take the opportunity to torment mu yichen.
li haoze sneered and said,"what?" am i not clear enough? young master mu was arrogant and overbearing, beating people up without saying anything. there are so many pairs of eyes watching. if we just let it go like this, our li family will lose face. don't you understand this logic, young mistress mu?"
how could luo chenxi not sense the malicious intent in li haoze's words?
he clearly felt that victory was already in his grasp. she and mu yichen were no match for him in a foreign land. that was why he was so fearless and wanted to humiliate them ruthlessly.
if luo chenxi was alone, she might have gone all out and fought li haoze to the end.
however, mu yichen was involved now ...
she was the cause of this incident. if it were not for li haoze's misunderstanding of her, mu yichen would not have been implicated.
how could she let this proud man beside her be humiliated by others for her?
at the thought of this, luo chenxi had no choice but to suppress her anger. she spoke in a gentler tone as much as possible, " "first young master li, isn't there no point in you doing this? everyone here saw it. my husband hit you just now because you insulted me first! as the li family's young master, humiliating the mu family's young lady like this, if things get out of hand, your reputation will be affected as well. why don't we each take a step back ..."
"hehe? each of us will take a step back?"
the corners of li haoze's lips finally curled up into a smile. the way he looked at the two of them was like a cat teasing two mice that were struggling on their deathbed.
"why should i take a step back? now, you're all in my hands! 'luo chenxi, don't underestimate the li family's power. believe it or not, not a single word of what happened here today will be spread!' moreover, even if i were to teach you a lesson here, as long as you don't kill anyone, the mu family won't be able to pursue the matter ..."
luo chenxi's back was gradually drenched in cold sweat.
she knew very well that most of li haoze's words were true.
with the li family's power, it was easy for them to seal off the news. moreover, mu yichen was the one who started the fight, so li haoze had a good reason to let his bodyguards fight back.
this matter was really hard to explain after the event.
luo chenxi gritted her teeth hard. " li haoze, what do you want from us before you're willing to let him go? "
li haoze did not answer immediately. instead, he crossed his arms and cast a sidelong glance at the two of them in a lazy manner.
he did not speak on purpose in order to put more pressure on luo chenxi and mu yichen. he hoped to see young master mu make a fool of himself in front of luo chenxi.
however, he was disappointed to find that mu yichen had maintained his cold expression from the beginning until the end.
it was as if he was not the prisoner with several guns pointed at him, but a bystander who had nothing to do with it.
in comparison, luo chenxi was rather anxious.
however, she did not lose her composure. no matter what she said or did, she was filled with a calm and elegant aura of a wealthy family.
this kind of bearing seemed to be innate.
this made li haoze even more vexed. why did luo chenxi choose mu yichen instead of him?
