She seemed indifferent as she replied frostily, “Mind your own business.”
He stiffened at those words and felt an eerie chill spreading from his spine.
Li Beinian shook Shi Yishen away, then, like a wild horse that had taken off, flew at Mu Donglin.
Shi Yishen had not expected Li Beinian to be this strong. His senses quickly caught up.
He lunged at her and circled his arms around her, then called out loudly towards the door, “Miss Lin, Miss Lin!”
Who this Miss Lin was, went without saying.
Li Beinian fought back aggressively. She turned to look and indeed, saw Lin Kerou dashing in almost immediately.
The moment Lin Kerou entered and saw Mu Donglin lying on the ground, she called out in fright, “Brother Donglin!”
Holding Li Beinian back, Shi Yishen, who was still shaken, called out, “Miss Li, calm down!”
However, Li Beinian’s struggle became more aggressive. She hollered furiously. “Mind your own business, let me go!”
He dragged her towards the exit, whispering threats through gritted teeth, “You’re a celebrity. If word of an attempted rape gets out, you’ll be the one looking bad!”
These words caused Li Beinian to pause.
Attempted rape.
She was… almost raped by Mu Donglin?
Taking advantage of the doubt he had managed to raise in her, he dragged her out of the restroom. After walking some distance and realizing that Li Beinian had calmed down somewhat, he let her go.
His mature and calm face carried an expression of helplessness.
Although still shaken, he was relieved as he slid his own jacket off and threw it over her. He said, “I have no idea what’s going on between you and Mu Donglin, but no matter what, you’re in the entertainment industry. He’ll have no difficulty suppressing such news. There’s no advantage for you to go against him.”
“Ha!” She suddenly laughed aloud, staring at Shi Yishen. Her eyes had become bloodshot. She said, “Just because I’m in the entertainment industry, I’m just that much less than others?”
Shi Yishen paused, then quickly said, “That’s not what I mean…”
“What do you mean, then!” Li Beinian almost shouted. “I’m an actress, so I’m lowlife!”
She spoke rather loudly along the corridor. Although there weren’t many people around, this was a public space.
Shi Yishen startled. Embarrassed, he explained patiently, “Miss Li, please calm down. I’m Shi Yishen, not the person who violated you.”
“Huh!” Li Beinian snorted without saying anything else and strode off.
She took big steps, and her eyes were burning.
Mu Donglin, Mu Donglin!
In both her previous life and this, his name was seared into her blood and bones as though by a branding iron.
The difference was that in her previous life, this was the name of her husband and her beloved.
In this life…
That same name was like a dead cockroach that had been thrown against her chest, disgusting, revolting to the extreme!
Shi Yishen got a fright when he saw her walking off and quickly ran after her. He held her back and said, “Miss Li, let me send you home.”
“Get lost!” She shrieked as a sense of exhaustion came over her.
He jumped at her reaction but continued to stand in her way. Speaking in a calm and gentle voice, he tried to persuade her. “There are many people from the media around here. It’s not good for you if this matter gets blown up. You should know this better.”
She wavered.
Indeed.
She was a public figure. Whatever she did to Mu Donglin now, it would be perceived as an act of insanity.
She understood it very well.
“Listen to me.” Shi Yishen tried hard to convince her. “A gentleman gets his revenge, even if it takes ten years.”
She seemed indifferent as she replied frostily, “Mind your own business.”
He stiffened at those words and felt an eerie chill spreading from his spine.
