CHAPTER 1024: CHAPTER 1024: YOU ONLY NEED ME

Li Beijue’s falcon-like eyes firmly locked onto her eyes, and he added, "Remember, if the Old man comes to you, don’t pay attention to him. Stall him until I get back!"

Thinking of the Old man’s tactics, he added another sentence, "If you can’t stall him, just don’t listen to anything he says! Chi Enen, remember, the person who is marrying you is me, not him! I know you want his approval, but even if he doesn’t approve, it doesn’t matter; I approve! As long as you have me, that’s enough!"

"I understand."

Li Beijue still wasn’t reassured and looked dominantly into her eyes to say once more, "You better really understand. Remember, whatever the Old man says doesn’t matter; I have everything covered."

His eyes were like stars in the night sky, deep and captivating, full of earnestness about to overflow. Just by looking into his eyes, she could tell that he wasn’t just casually saying these things like other men; he was genuinely, seriously telling her that he had everything covered! Even if his family opposed, even if his grandfather didn’t acknowledge her, he did! He wouldn’t change his decision based on others’ opinions.

Chi Enen didn’t even realize that her pupils suddenly softened, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously lifted, "Li Beijue, I understand. I won’t back down either."

She wouldn’t back down; she was still waiting for an opportunity from the Old Master, waiting for an opportunity where he might accept her. Once that opportunity came, she would strive for it with all her might.

Before that, she wanted to focus on preparing a birthday gift for him.

Last year, when it was his birthday, she was in Country T, having just had Nuonuo and was too busy to care.

This year, she was determined to give him an unforgettable birthday!

Chi Enen thought about how Li Beijue would look when he saw the surprise she prepared, and she was inexplicably in a good mood. Even the air seemed to become much fresher, and she smiled as she picked up the book she had just set down, "Alright, let me read to you."

She had been a radio host in the car, so she was quite professional in this area. Even though the book in hand was a dull and boring ’Investment and Management,’ she began reading softly, "The return on investment is proportional to the risk factor of the projects we see and..."

While reading, she also became engrossed.

She didn’t even know what version of the book Li Beijue was reading. The books she had read back at the Habsden family were not as comprehensive as this one he casually handed to her, and it contained many technical terms and novel viewpoints from which she learned something new.

She read each word carefully, completely unaware that the man holding her had gradually closed his eyes to her gentle voice, his cold, stern facial features slowly softening, and his breathing gradually becoming even...

When her voice started to get dry, she finally came to her senses and belatedly realized that Li Beijue had fallen asleep.

Her voice gradually lowered, and she closed the book, gently placing it on the side, and turned off the bedside lamp.

The night instantly poured in from the window sill, and the bright moonlight shone on the sleeping man’s face, adding a layer of stunning brilliance to his already extraordinarily handsome face.

Chi Enen tucked the quilt in carefully, thinking of tonight’s romantic dinner, the fireflies she saw, and the corner of her mouth lifted as she closed her eyes, slowly drifting into dreamland...

Goodnight, Li Beijue.
