Shi Yuxuan, if you dare to taint yourself, don’t forget that since I have the ability to make you the second madam of the Li family, I also have the ability to remove you from the position.

“Ms. Shi, let me tell you that I am a clean freak. I hope you will behave yourself in the future.”

Li Beichen only had a cold and ruthless smile on his lips. His hawk-like eyes shot out a cold and sharp glint, threatening Yuxuan to the point that she had nowhere to hide.

“Noted…”

Just one word, ‘noted’? Did she have nothing else to say? Did this woman actually internalize what he had said?

Li Beichen frowned slightly and glanced at her coldly. Yuxuan was stunned by his powerful aura.

“Erm… Please go out first. Just give me a moment and I’ll join you.” Yuxuan saw something ominous in his eyes.

This man was extremely obsessed with cleanliness. As an example, he seemed to dislike her sitting on his bed without any reservations.

Perhaps it was even to the point that he felt… disgusted?

But she did not break in on purpose.

Shi Yuxuan bit her lower lip in frustration and grievance. She lifted her long eyelashes and glanced at him carefully.

Li Beichen’s tall and straight figure was right in front of her. The corners of his lips were slightly curled up with a hint of danger.

“I’ll only give you two minutes.” The man’s gloomy face was filled with displeasure.

It seemed that she had really crossed his bottom line. Shi Yuxuan’s heart trembled and she replied, “Okay.”

Without looking at her again, he walked out.

After that, Yuxuan got up from the luxurious silkworm quilt swiftly and took out a pair of trousers from the wardrobe. Although it was a little strange to wear them, at least it was safer to have pants on than to do without.

It was a little long on her so she rolled the ends up as much as she could. Since she had a slim figure, she looked like she was wearing gender-neutral clothing.

Taking in a few deep breaths, she composed herself and brushed her slightly curled hair. After making sure that she looked presentable, she carefully left the master bedroom.

In the end, she took less than two minutes.

Li Beichen was standing outside.

She looked at him nervously. Without saying anything, she walked past him and went downstairs.

Li Beichen stared at her back and said coldly, “Shi Yuxuan, from now on, you are not to take even a single step onto the second floor.”

Since the engagement was set, and Li Beichen had already brought her to the capital of Hua Du City, Shi Yuxuan had no intention of returning to that depressing home.

After all, Shi Junye was coming back.

Her nightmare was going to come true.

Originally she wanted to just stay at Mount Yanlan, but she did not expect that Li Beichen would not even let her go up to the second floor.

Was he so obsessed with his clean freak tendencies?

If she was not allowed to go upstairs, where could she sleep? On the sofa?

Shi Yuxuan turned around slowly and raised her chin slightly. “What about other areas? Is the sofa okay?”

He didn’t speak.

And Yuxuan didn’t ask further.

After glancing at him, she looked away again. Thereafter, she turned and went downstairs.

Silence meant that there was no objection. Fortunately, she could still sleep on the sofa. Deliberate steps brought her over to the sofa and she took a cushion and hugged it.

The man upstairs looked at her quietly.

Li Beichen narrowed his deep eyes, a hint of danger swirling beneath the surface. His fingers rubbed his brows as if he wanted to drive something away, but to no avail.

He slowly lit up a cigarette and blew out white smoke from his thin lips. His handsome face was shrouded by the smoke and looked unfathomable.

This woman was really…

Before the cigarette had finished burning, his eyes darkened. Placing the cigarette in the ashtray, the spark was immediately extinguished…
