Chapter 413: You Have Poor Situational Awareness
Li Beinian exploded. She hit him on the head and said, “Address him properly. His name is Mu Xichen. How can you address him as Brother Big Lock, it’s such a horrible name!”
A big lock that sealed up spirits!
How can this be used to address someone?
How dirty!
Chi Hailang let out a yell after being hit and retorted. “He has always been Brother Big Lock to me. Why am I wrong to address him like that!”
Hearing this, Li Beinian hit him again and said, “How dare you say it again. Address him properly!”
Chi Hailang sniffed a couple of times, raised his head, and looked at Mu Xichen.
He realized that Mu Xichen was also looking at him with a calm expression. However, his glance seemed to have another subtle meaning. Mu Xichen asked, “Who wants to be your sworn brother?”
Chi Hailang immediately caught on to what Mu Xichen was trying to say. He took a glance at Li Beinian and asked, “So, does that mean you want to...”
Mu Xichen didn’t speak and turned away.
Chi Hailang followed after him, screaming. “Brother-in-law, wait for me!”
Li Beinian heard it and was dumbfounded. By the time she came to her senses, Chi Hailang was long gone.
“What the hell!” Li Beinian said as she ran after them. “Chi Hailang, don’t you dare scream without thinking!”
As she couldn’t be too flamboyant, she had to put on her shades before chasing after them.
By the time she was out of the station, Mu Xichen had already collected his car.
Li Beinian found her keys and opened the car door.
Seeing this, Chi Hailang understood the situation, got on Mu Xichen’s car, and said, “Big sis, keep up and help me foot the hospital bills. I don’t have any cash on me!”
After that, he went straight to the backseat of Mu Xichen’s car.
Li Beinian was speechless.
Mu Xichen started the engine. After Chi Hailang made sure that Li Beinian was following them, he turned to Mu Xichen and asked, “Brother Big Lock, do you like my sister? I’ve seen you two hanging out quite a couple of times already!”
“I like what you called me just now.”
“What I called you just now?”
Chi Hailang let out a laugh and said, “I knew it. Even though Beinian is a bit rough around the edges, she’s pretty, capable, and has a strong personality. It’s rare to find a lady like her.”
Hearing that Li Beinian was complimented, Mu Xichen was elated and asked, “How long have you known her?”
“It’s been ages since we first knew each other.” Chi Hailang shrugged. “She’s capable, smart, and pretty. My parents really like her and wanted me to marry her.”
As the words left his mouth, Chi Hailang could feel that atmosphere took a sharp downturn.
He immediately clarified. “This is just a joke made by the elders of the family. No one took it seriously.”
Mu Xichen’s face was still quite unpleasant. He continued to steer the vehicle steadily and asked, “Has she mentioned me in your presence?”
“Hmm.” Chi Hailang hesitated for a while. With a light cough, he replied, “No.”
Mu Xichen fell silent.
“This is pretty normal. Has she mentioned me in your presence?”
Mu Xichen remained silent.
One look and Chi Hailang understood. He said, “I’m pretty sure she hadn’t. She isn’t someone that likes to talk about such things with others. She tends to bottle things up inside. But are you two fighting?”
“She told you that?”
“Please. One look and I could tell.” Chi Hailang shook his head as the talking caused his injury to hurt. “Have you seen the look she gave you? When you arrived, she was looking at you with some sentiments of affection, annoyance, disgruntlement, and gratefulness.”
“Why didn’t I notice that?”
Chi Hailang paused for a moment. With a straight face, he replied, “Maybe it’s because I have better situational awareness than you.”
What he meant to say was that Mu Xichen had poor situational awareness.
Mu Xichen was speechless again.
