Chapter 148: This Man Is Terrible to the Extreme!

“Li… Li… Li Beijue?” Chi Enen stammered, still not recovered from the shock. Before she could, her body lightened as she was swept off her feet in a sideways embrace.
The man, godlike in aura, with a hardened handsome face and deep contours, strode out with his long legs while holding her close.
Just then, a car came driving by, and he forcefully brought it to a halt.
“CEO?”
“Get out.”
“Um… what?”
“I told you to get out of the car!”
The terrifying posture was even more convincing than that of an actual robber!
The driver, though confused, complied obediently, and as soon as he got out, Li Beijue yanked open the rear car door, settled Chi Enen inside, then slammed the door shut, slid into the driver’s seat, slammed the throttle, and the car raced away—
Leaving the bewildered owner standing there, scratching his head in clueless dismay.
Why would the CEO snatch his car?
And who was that woman the CEO was holding?
The car sped all the way to the hospital entrance.
Li Beijue braked fiercely, stopping the car right at the main entrance. He flung open the door, about to carry Chi Enen out.
“I can get out myself.”
After the initial shock during the ride, she had gradually calmed down, dodging his hand, preparing to exit on her own. But Li Beijue didn’t give her a chance, too impatient for conversation, he forcefully carried her out.
“All.”
Feeling ungrounded, Chi Enen couldn’t help but let out a cry of surprise.
She just watched as he carried her into the hospital.
By this point, it would be strange if she didn’t know why they were here. People all along the way were looking their way; Chi Enen’s cheeks burned with a faint blush, and she whispered, “Li Beijue, put me down, I can walk on my own.”
His reply was an exceedingly cold profile!
She bit her lower lip and repeated, “Li Beijue, I really can walk by myself. Let me go, please.”
Let go!
Again, those two words!
His falcon-like eyes suddenly narrowed to the size of needle tips, and he abruptly halted, “Do you really want me to let go of you?”
What did that mean?
As Chi Enen wished, the cold and merciless man let go of her.
But it was to place her on the handrail of the 5th floor staircase.
The 10 cm wide handrail was nowhere near stable enough to sit on, and Chi Enen turned deathly pale, nearly screaming! Instinctively, she clutched at his wrist as if it was a lifeline.
“What are you doing!”
Li Beijue glanced at her hand gripping his tightly, his thin lips curling coldly, “Didn’t you ask me to let go of you? I obliged. Let go.”
As he said this, he reached to pry Chi Enen’s hand off.
This was the 5th floor!
Falling from the 5th floor would mean at least a concussion, if not death!
Her face ashen, she subconsciously clutched the front of his clothes tighter, “Don’t…”
Her big round eyes, previously filled with stubborn defiance, now showed nothing but panic, like a frightened deer. The anger in Li Beijue’s heart, for some reason, subsided substantially. His grim expression softened a bit, as he pinched her chin and asked magnanimously, “Do you still want me to let go of you?”
A wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him. Chi Enen bit her lower lip and, with difficulty, shook her head.
His mood slightly improved, he gathered her back into his arms, his thin lips lifting in faint pleasure, “That’s more like it.”
Like hell it is!
Chi Enen felt like a pet, threatened and intimidated, then soothed down. But she had no choice but to bend under the roof that sheltered her; she had to endure it.
