Chapter 199: Apologize to Sister-In-Law

“Your subordinates are so annoying!” Li Beinian was frustrated. “They kept calling me sister-in-law. I already told them that I wasn’t, but they still continued…”

Her voice was annoyed but got smaller and smaller.

Mu Xichen noticed that her face had gotten redder.

She noticed his gaze and felt even hotter.

Shrinking back, she said fiercely, “What are you looking at, your people bullied me!”

Mu Xichen couldn’t help but smirk. He got up quickly, his voice low and amused. “I’ll go warn them.”

Li Beinian felt even more ashamed and annoyed at this.

She reached out and grabbed him.

Mu Xichen paused.

Her soft palms were somewhat cool.

His heart shuddered slightly.

Mu Xichen turned around and looked at her overly-red cheeks.

“Forget it,” Li Beinian whispered. “I’m leaving tomorrow, anyway. I’ll hide in the tent and not go out.”

“No.” Mu Xichen looked at her and said slowly, “The camp needs to be tidied.”

Then, he held Li Beinian’s hand and released it gently before leaving the tent.

His tall figure was standing upright, blocking the light and casting a long shadow.

Li Beinian looked at his back and felt her heart beating fast.

Her face was getting even redder!

Why did it feel like… she was a child who had just been bullied and had come back to complain to her parents?

After a while, she heard a voice outside.

“Troops, gather!”

It was Gu Mingye’s voice!

Li Beinian’s mind buzzed.

His supposed warning was to gather everyone and then give them another warning?

They had just been teasing her, but his behavior… wasn’t he making it more conspicuous!

Her face turned red and she stood up immediately.

She put on her shoes and ran towards the place where the voice came from.

Everyone quickly gathered and waited for his strict order.

Li Beinian saw Mu Xichen standing upright from afar, and Gu Mingye was standing beside him.

They had all gathered, each of them standing upright and ramrod.

They were so serious…

Weren’t they making a mountain out of a molehill!

Li Beinian felt even more ashamed and wanted to dig a hole in the ground to hide in!

This guy… was he really not embarrassing her more?

Someone saw Li Beinian from a distance and quickly looked away.

Li Beinian ran over with her head lowered and quickly reached Mu Xichen. She pulled on the sleeves of his shirt and said softly, “What are you doing?”

Mu Xichen glanced at her sideways and said slowly in an unconcealed voice, “They bullied you and should be punished.”

All of them exploded after hearing this sentence and shouted, “We were wronged, Boss! When did we bully the girl?”

“That’s sister-in-law, we dare not bully her!”

“Yes, yes, we treated her well and took good care of her, didn’t we?”

“Yes!”

…

“Forget it.” Li Beinian pulled him and whispered to him, “It’s a small matter.”

Compared to Li Beinian’s uncomfortable expression, Mu Xichen was very calm. He said calmly, “No, they made you unhappy. They must at least apologize.”

Gu Mingye heard this and immediately shouted, “Apologize to sister-in-law!”

Li Beinian’s brain buzzed even more.

Sure enough, the whole army recited immediately, “Sister-in-law, we’re sorry. We were wrong!”
