<h4>Chapter 372: Good Job Putting on a Show</h4>


    The doorbell rang again and Li Beinian felt nervous.


    After taking two deep breaths, she reached out and opened the door.


    Mu Xichen had always dressed simply. Today, he was wearing a ck T-shirt and trousers. He appeared calm and collected when he saw her.


    Li Beinian stared at him with mixed feelings for some time before coldly asking, “What’s the matter?”


    Mu Xichen calmly responded, “Mu Donglin has already transferred the vi to me.”


    “Well...” Li Beinian quickly turned around and said, “Come in and drink some water.”


    “No need.”


    “Juice or mineral water?”


    Mu Xichen pursed his lips and paused for a moment. “Water.”


    Hearing this, Li Beinian slightly smiled and quickly walked into the kitchen.


    She naturally poured a ss of ice water. When she walked out, she realized that Mu Xichen was already sitting on the sofa.


    Her heart seemed to be overwhelmed withplicated emotions. Li Beinian’s started to be nervous as she brought over the ss of water.


    However, very quickly, she calmed herself down.


    She calmly put the ss down in front of him and then sat on the sofa chair opposite him.


    Mu Xichen nced at her, took a sip of the water, and said lightly, “The vi is meant for you.”


    “Well.” Li Beinian leaned back casually on the chair and looked at her neat and clean nails. “You were the one who fought for it, so it should be given to you.”


    “You were the one who almost died.” Mu Xichen raised his eyebrow and stared at her with his deep and dark eyes. “This is thepensation that you deserve.”


    “You saved me. Didn’t you say that we should split it in half?” Li Beinian withdrew her gaze and said tly. “Besides, you’ve saved me multiple times and I haven’t thanked you properly yet. You deserve half of it.” Pausing, she added, “If you think it’s too little, let me know.”


    Mu Xichen did not say anything, but his ck eyes seemed to look at her even more deeply.


    “Since you don’t n to have any more contact with me in the future, let’s have a clean break. This is to prevent any conflicts in the future.”


    When Li Beinian said this, her heart seemed heavy.


    However, her tone was very calm. After knowing him for so long, she had learned how to put on a good show.


    She nced at him inadvertently. Sure enough, Mu Xichen’s face was a little dark.


    However, he very quickly covered up his emotions without a trace.


    “That’s fine.” Mu Xichen held his ss till his fingers turned pale from the coldness. He looked at her emotionlessly. “We’re clear, then.”


    “Yes.” Li Beinian avoided his gaze and faintly responded. “I won’t send you out.”


    She meant to drive him away.


    Mu Xichen’s facial muscles twitched. He ced the ss of water down and stood up.


    Li Beinian sat on the sofa and did not move.


    Just when Mu Xichen walked past her, she couldn’t help but turn around to look at him.


    Suddenly, Mu Xichen paused.


    Li Beinian immediately withdrew her gaze and pretended to look at her nails.


    “Congrattions on your engagement.”


    It was a low and raspy voice that had no emotion.


    Li Beinian lifted her fingers casually, and she even smiled and said, “Thank you.”


    Her voice was very soft.


    Sometimeter, she heard the door close.


    He had left.


    Finally.


    Why did he leave so quickly...
