Although Li Beinian was gloating inside, her expression was humble and low-key.
In response to Mu Donglin's remark, she smiled mildly and said, "I quite like this necklace."
So it was inevitable? Was that what she meant?
Mu Donglin's expression was fouler than ever. He said icily, "Isn't that too much of a price to pay for merely liking something? Who are you expecting to foot the bill? I don't suppose even Shi Yishen would be willing to take this up?"
He shifted his gaze to Shi Yishen as he spoke.
His expression was filled with a hint of sarcasm and warning.
In response, Shi Yishen raised a thick and charming eyebrow and spread his hand in a gesture, saying, "If the beauty likes it, then I'm more than happy to oblige."
"There's no need," Li Beinian interrupted calmly. She continued, "It's just a necklace, I can afford it."
Cool and calm.
Only, her attitude was so arrogant it created a huge stir throughout the venue.
