Chapter 1023: Chapter 1023: He Has Something to Do Tomorrow and Needs to Go Out

Li Beijue was already lying down, half-reclined on the luxurious KING-SIZE bed, holding a book in his hand.

When he saw her come out, he raised an eyebrow and domineeringly pulled back the quilt beside him, patting the Xi Mengsi mattress, "Chi Enen, come here."

That tone, no matter how you heard it, sounded like a young master summoning his personal maid to warm the bed.

Chi Enen had grown accustomed to the way he spoke and walked over, naturally lying down beside him.

As soon as she lay down, her waist was firmly held by someone, pulling her forcefully over—

A book was stuffed into her hand from above, and the man’s deep, commanding voice came from above her head, "Read to me."

He wanted to hear her voice!

Chi Enen, feeling exasperated, picked up the thick "Investment and Management," flipping to the page he had reached, just about to start reading.

When she heard the man beside her pull her closer by the waist, casually remarking, "Chi Enen, I have something to do tomorrow and need to go out. I may not be at the Li Mansion during the day..."

He wouldn’t be home tomorrow?

Chi Enen felt an instant surge of delight, like a sudden light piercing through the clouds. She had been pondering over a reason to send him away while taking her bath earlier, just to make some thousand paper cranes.

Unexpectedly, even God was helping her out—Li Beijue wouldn’t be home tomorrow.

The surprise was so sudden that she couldn’t control her expression. Her eyes lit up slightly, "Alright, you go take care of your business. I can take care of myself."

Li Beijue’s handsome face instantly darkened as he stared at her ecstatic expression. His thin lips pressed into a straight line!

What did this woman mean? Was she that happy about him not being home?!

Had she ever considered that his absence could mean she’d be left alone in an unfamiliar environment, possibly facing the old man?

What exactly was she so happy about?!

If the old man took advantage of his absence to "talk" to her, did she even understand what she might be facing?

Li Beijue’s temple throbbed incessantly. If it had been any other woman acting so clueless, he wouldn’t have bothered. But this woman wasn’t just anybody; she was Chi Enen!

He took a deep breath, suppressing the fiery frustration in his chest, his brows knotting together, "You’re coming with me tomorrow!"

Although tomorrow’s banquet wasn’t suitable for bringing a female companion, after weighing his options, he still couldn’t feel at ease leaving Chi Enen alone at the Li Mansion to face the old man.

Chi Enen, having finally found an opportunity to make the thousand paper cranes, wasn’t willing to let it slip away. She immediately replied, "That’s not necessary. You’ve got important matters to handle, so you don’t need to bring me along. I don’t know anyone in Country W anyway, it’d just be boring for me. I’d rather stay at home and check out some books in your study room."

After speaking, she quickly added, "Besides, I have a video conference tomorrow afternoon. Ryan’s team has already completed the full restructuring of the Chi Corporation. I need to plan the upcoming merger and find a suitable candidate to replace Chi Jianguo as Chairman."

"Will you be back tomorrow afternoon?" Chi Enen asked nervously, looking at him.

Li Beijue’s thin lips tightened grimly, his falcon-like eyes brimming with irritation.

According to usual procedures, there would likely be a banquet tomorrow evening, and even if he didn’t actively attend, he would still need to make an appearance before he could leave.

It was clear that he wouldn’t be back tomorrow afternoon.

Moreover, if he were to bring her along, there wouldn’t be any time for her to hold a video conference tomorrow afternoon.

Seeing the look on his face, Chi Enen instantly knew she’d gambled right! Li Beijue wouldn’t be back in the afternoon! Without giving him time to reconsider, she quickly assured him, "You can go by yourself tomorrow, I’ll stay here. Don’t worry, I’ll stay in your study room during the day and wait for you to come back."
