Chapter 443: Chapter 443: Jealousy Eaten in such a Childish Way
Chi Enen didn’t expect him to be willing to arrange a new job for Han Qifeng. Overjoyed, she looked at him but couldn’t help defending herself upon hearing his last sentence, “I don’t even like him…”
Li Beijue glared at her fiercely and threatened through clenched teeth, “You are not allowed to mention him either!”
He believed her words and that she had made things clear to Han Qifeng after he had left That night. But he still didn’t like Han Qifeng; he disliked any man who eyed Chi Enen, and Han Qifeng had more than once set his sights on her. Since Chi Enen still held a favorable impression of him, his dislike only deepened!
“In short, you are forbidden from talking about That man from now on.”
“…”
His jealousy is so childish…
He’s a complete vinegar jar, no, a vinegar river!
Nevertheless, Chi Enen agreed to his request and changed the subject, her eyebrows slightly furrowing as she said, “Li Beijue, I hope you’ll tell me right away when we encounter anything that might lead to misunderstandings in the future. This time I didn’t consider all aspects. When Han Qifeng called, I shouldn’t have lied and said it was Sister Nan. That’s what led to your misunderstanding. I won’t do it again. If I come across something that might be misunderstood, I will talk to you about it first. And you should do the same.”
Something seemed to strike Li Beijue as his falcon-like eyes flashed with a hint of haze, and his previously clear skies of good mood also became overcast. His thin lips pressed into a straight line as he met Chi Enen’s gaze, his Adam’s apple rolling slightly as if he had something to say, but it changed to, “Understood.”
No, he couldn’t let this woman know about the Old Master’s issue.
She simply didn’t have enough ability to withstand the old man’s pressure.
He believed she liked him, but he wasn’t sure to what extent Chi Enen liked him. Until he was certain her liking for him was strong enough to go all out, he didn’t want to give her any chance to leave him—

After returning to Zijing Garden from the company, Chi Enen collapsed on the bed and fell asleep.
Baby Chi was also coaxed to sleep early.
Li Beijue left the bedroom, his previously tender demeanor replaced with a few shades of impatience and sternness in his eyes.
“Master Jue, are you setting off now?” Huo Yi asked cautiously with his hands placed in front of him.
Li Beijue tugged at his tie, his brows furrowed, barely concealing the harshness, “Yes, go ahead and arrange it.”
“Yes.”
“Wait.” Li Beijue called out to him again, adding, “I don’t want to see a shred of news about this matter domestically for the next two days while I’m away. Not just traditional media, but the Internet channels must be completely blacked out! Understand?”
Huo Yi understood he was worried about Miss Chi finding out, and with his head bowed, he responded reverently, “Master Jue, rest assured, I will do my utmost to suppress it.”
Li Beijue’s black eyes flashed with fierce determination, and he ordered with a brief touch of his thin lips, “It’s not a matter of doing your utmost; you must ensure it!”
If that woman found out, what if she took Bae Chi and ran away again.
Li Beijue felt inexplicably agitated, the shirt collar around his neck making it difficult for him to breathe. He tugged at his collar, overwhelmed with restlessness.
He could not tolerate such a thing happening!
However, while Chi Enen seemed to be good-tempered, once she was stubborn, she was bold as if she had the courage of both bear and leopard. There was nothing she wouldn’t dare to do that he couldn’t imagine.
Without absolute certainty, he still felt uneasy.
“Also, find someone to secure Zijing Garden. Report any movement to me immediately,” he ordered.
“Yes.”
Ten minutes later, Li Beijue set off.
