Madam Li's Identity Is Exposed Again!

Chapter 1426: Chapter 1426: Lying That a Friend Came

She had changed her clothes and put her mobile phone in her bag. Next, she had to tell Li Beijue that she was going out.

How should she tell that person she was going out? If she couldn’t find a good reason, he likely wouldn’t let her go.

Chi Enen felt a bit uneasy, drafting a plan in her mind, pondering over what to say later.

She thought as she walked outside.

Before she reached the living room, Huo Yi had already seen her and asked in surprise, ”Miss Chi, are you going out?”

Besides him, herself, Li Beijue, and several servants, there was no one else in the living room.

Except for Li Beijue’s video conference voice, everyone else instinctively remained silent.

Huo Yi’s sudden question drew everyone’s attention to her, including the man at the meeting with the falcon-like eyes.

That piercing gaze was hard to ignore.

Chi Enen attempted a smile at the corner of her mouth and said ambiguously, ”Ah, yes, my friend invited me out, so I’m going out for a bit.”

As soon as she spoke, Li Beijue’s voice followed as expected, ”What friend?”

”A... friend you don’t know, just a friend I met in Capital City, Qin Nan, you don’t know her.” Chi Enen calmed down a bit, lying with her eyes wide open, ”She’s come to W Country for her honeymoon and called me, inviting me for tea. I haven’t seen her for ages, so with this rare opportunity, I agreed.”

Sister Nan recently held a wedding, but she went to the Ryukyu Islands for her honeymoon, not to W Country.

She shouldn’t have lied, but she had already promised the Old Butler not to tell Li Beijue that the Old Master was in Lin City, so she couldn’t say anything and had to lie.

Li Beijue squinted his eyes as if assessing the credibility of her words.

Huo Yi chimed in at that moment, ”Is it the friend Miss Chi worked with at the radio station? She came to W Country? I remember Miss Chi and her were very close back then, often hanging out together.”

Under Li Beijue’s intense scrutiny, Chi Enen almost couldn’t withstand it, but Huo Yi’s words were like a lifeline to her. She immediately said, ”Yes, that’s her. Uh, she and her husband came together. Sister Nan took great care of me before, and ever since I left Capital City, she’s been busy with work, and we haven’t had a chance to meet. This time, with the rare opportunity, I couldn’t refuse her.”

She looked towards the man on the sofa, with eyes full of anticipation, negotiating, ”So, President Li, I’d like to go out and have some water with my friend, is that alright?”

The man on the sofa turned off the Bluetooth headset, squinted his falcon-like eyes, and suddenly said, ”I want honey water.”

Chi Enen picked up immediately, ”I’ll make it for you.”

Saying this, she swiftly moved to the water dispenser, found a glass cup, mixed half hot water with half cold water, then pulled out the honey, poured it in, stirred, and brought it over, placing it on the tea table.

”Here you go, drink it.”

Li Beijue didn’t drink, just glanced at it indifferently, ”Weren’t you going out? Go then.”

”You’re okay with it?”

”I wasn’t forcing you to stay here with me!” His tone sounded anything but happy.

The Old Master was still waiting for her, and Chi Enen could only pretend not to notice, blinked, and quickly said, ”Then I’ll go now, I’ll be back soon.”

After speaking, she quickly ran out, afraid someone might change their mind.
