Madam Li's Identity Is Exposed Again!

Chapter 1043: Chapter 1043: Baby Chi happens to make a video call at this time.

It was still the first time in his life that someone had dared to challenge his authority like this. His tiger-like eyes darkened, and he said coldly, ”You really think I can’t do anything about you?”

He had countless ways to separate them. The reason he hadn’t acted was because she had borne two cute children for Beijue.

For the sake of the children, he refrained from using forceful methods against her!

”I know you have ways to deal with me.” Facing the sudden pressure from Old Master Li, Chi Enen surprisingly remained composed. Her pair of clear, bright eyes seemed capable of piercing straight through to his deepest weakness, sharper than his own thoughts, hitting the nail on the head, ”But you can’t do anything about Li Beijue.”

It wasn’t that Old Master Li lacked ways to deal with her; in his eyes, she was merely an outsider.

But Li Beijue was different. Li Beijue was his grandson, bonded by the ties of blood and familial affection. Moreover, Li Beijue had grown up with Old Master Li since childhood. No one, not even the most heartless person, could remain entirely indifferent.

Thus, Old Master Li’s hesitation towards her was, in fact, his hesitation towards Li Beijue.

All along, what Old Master Li truly cared about was Li Beijue’s feelings.

When it came down to it, the reason Old Master Li didn’t take action against her was entirely for Li Beijue’s sake.

Chi Enen was well aware of this.

She wasn’t afraid to lay it bare.

Now, as the old master pressed her step by step, if she didn’t make it clear, she would lose.

Chi Enen stared directly into his furious eyes and continued, ”Li Beijue has an obsessive streak in his personality; I know it, and, Grandpa, you know it too. Now that he’s set his mind on me, he won’t change that easily—unless he ceases to be himself. If you try to come after me, it will mean tearing things apart with Li Beijue.”

Old Master Li was truly enraged now. His gaze grew so cold it seemed like frost could crystallize from it. ”Are you threatening me?”

Chi Enen replied helplessly, ”I’m merely stating facts, nothing more.”

All she wanted was to make the old master understand that whether he approved or not, she and Li Beijue would not break up!

She wouldn’t give up on Li Beijue just because the family didn’t like her.

She believed Li Beijue wouldn’t give up on her either.

She had no intention of making threats, but looking at the old master’s stubbornness and forcefulness, she couldn’t help being reminded of Baby Chi’s insistence on a certain point, refusing to hear any other opinions, so she inadvertently added a few more words.

After finishing her words, she realized that what she’d said might give the old master the wrong impression.

As Chi Enen was wondering how to clear up the misunderstanding, her mobile phone suddenly vibrated. She put down the bowl of white porridge, took out the phone, and saw Baby Chi’s cool and handsome little avatar bouncing up and down on the screen.

Oh no.

Baby Chi was calling via video. How had she forgotten to tell Baby Chi that today’s call would be delayed?

As she was feeling a headache coming on, the old master, whose face had been tightly drawn and confrontational, suddenly relaxed slightly. Picking up the white porridge bowl she had placed in front of him, he asked, ”Is it Jingchen calling?”

”...” How did the old master know Baby Chi’s name?

The thought had barely crossed Chi Enen’s mind when she couldn’t help but let out a wry laugh.

With the old master’s resources and means, finding out Baby Chi’s name would have been too easy. It was hardly surprising.

She made a sound of acknowledgment and was about to hang up the phone.

Suddenly, Old Master Li said, ”What are you hesitating for? Answer it.”

Answer it?!

Chi Enen hesitated for a moment before picking up the video call.

The phone immediately emitted a static sound, and in a short while, the screen transitioned from darkness to the bright daytime, revealing a cool and handsome little face.
