Isn't She Afraid That It Will Backfire

Mu Donglin's expression darkened.

Lin Kerou stomped in anger.

Alas, she couldn't spill profanities in the presence of all these people.

Eventually, she could only say, "You're too evil!"

Li Beinian acted as though she wasn't aware that Lin Kerou was berating her, smiled, and nodded slightly, saying, "Thanks for the compliment."

Her attitude drew even more attention.

"She's bold."

"Is this for real? Isn't she afraid that it will backfire?"

"Hahaha, given what has happened, Eldest Young Master Mu is not going to just let it go. Just watch!"

…

Li Beinian ignored all these comments as though she had heard nothing. She picked up the cup of coffee that had been sitting by her side for some time and took a sip.

The auctioneer officially assigned the new ownership of the necklace to Mu Donglin.

Only, the scowl refused to leave his face.
