After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 11

Chapter 11: Chapter 11 Eating the Tofu of the King of Hell?

"I'm looking into whether or not I can cure your legs."

The girl's expression didn't show any panic as she tilted her head and said, "Although I can't do it right now, I definitely will be able to later."

"Are you joking?"

The bodyguard behind frowned tightly, "The top doctors in the world have been unable to cure President Li's legs, how can you, a naive little girl, make such a bold claim?"

The others at the banquet were quite far from the corner, unable to hear clearly what was being said; they could only see that Lu Sheng had just said something and then got scolded by the bodyguard.

The bodyguard looked quite disdainful.

And rightfully so. Where did this reckless girl who is not afraid of death come from? It was bad enough that she dared to strike up a conversation with Old Mr. Li, but to even dare to take liberties with him.

Old Mr. Li will surely teach her a lesson.

By tomorrow, she might just disappear from Jiang City.

Everyone was secretly muttering in their minds, all with an expression of eager anticipation for the drama. However, to their surprise, Lu Sheng was not punished.

Instead, Li Muchen looked up at the bodyguard, his gaze icy cold, "Did I allow you to speak?"

"Uh..." The bodyguard got startled, frightened by Li Muchen's cold gaze.

Realizing that he had overstepped, the bodyguard instantly became fearful and flustered, "I'm sorry, President Li, I..."

"Step down." Li Muchen spoke impassively.

"Yes, President Li!" Without another word, the bodyguard quicky stepped back, not daring to even breathe out loud thereafter.

"...Do you also think I'm just talking big?" Lu Sheng pursed her lips and looked at the man, seemingly a bit aggrieved.

Her eyes glossed over with a slender layer of watery mist, looking pitiful.

Yet for some reason, Li Muchen could immediately tell that this resentful look on the girl was a pretense, as if she wanted him to feel pity.

Li Muchen stated calmly, "I'm just very curious what method you're talking about to cure my legs."

"Do you really want to know?"

The aggrieved look on Lu Sheng's face disappeared, a sly smile flickering in her eyes instead as she slowly leaned closer to the man's ear.

"If you want it to be faster... it would need to be done the same way as yesterday. Are you willing?"

—The same way as yesterday?

It felt as though a soft touch still lingered on his lips.

The girl's warm breath, along with her soft-spoken words, tickled his ear, bringing a sensual thrill.

Li Muchen's Adam's apple bobbed, but before he could reply, the girl in front of him was suddenly pulled away.

"President Li!"

Lu Jingyan, who had just learned of the situation, suddenly appeared in front of Li Muchen. He grabbed Lu Sheng's hand and pulled her to his side.

"I apologize, President Li, this is my sister Lu Sheng. She just arrived in Jiang City yesterday and was unaware of your status. If she has offended you in any way just now, I apologize on her behalf."

Lu Jingyan took a deep breath, bending down very politely, his face carrying an apologetic expression.

Li Muchen's brow furrowed, his eyes dimmed upon seeing the girl's hand being held by the man, feeling somewhat displeased deep inside.

"Big brother..."

Lu Sheng called out, appearing meek and timid, nothing like the bold and flirtatious demeanor she had shown just moments ago in front of him alone.

"Apologize to President Li right now," Lu Jingyan frowned, his voice low as he rebuked Lu Sheng, as if he feared Li Muchen might blame her.

Li Muchen lifted his gaze and said, "...No need, she did not offend me."

Hearing what Li Muchen said, Lu Jingyan finally sighed in relief, "I'm glad you do not mind, President Li. I will teach her the proper manners from now on."

"Since that's the case, we will leave you to rest," Lu Jingyan was very polite, then immediately pulled Lu Sheng away.

Li Muchen watched as Lu Sheng's figure disappeared from sight.

What concerned him was that the girl was indeed pulled away, yet she didn't even turn her head back, not giving him another glance, truly unfettered.

He couldn't help but exhale deeply.
