His voice was low, but even from such a long distance, Li Beinian could hear him clearly.
How could he say it as if she was following him?
With a tight chest, Li Beinian gritted her teeth and said, “Why are you here!”
“I’ve always lived here.” Mu Xichen looked at her, his dark eyes natural. “But you, why did you peek at me when I was changing clothes?”
When his faint words fell, Li Beinian felt stunned and retorted. “When did I peek at you changing clothes!”
Mu Xichen didn’t speak anymore, and his cheeks were slightly flushed.
He stared at Li Beinian for a moment, then turned his head and whispered, “You female rogue.”
Li Beinian was stunned and was about to speak, but she saw that Mu Xichen had closed the window.
At that time, Li Beinian felt like an unforgivable villain.
This feeling came strong and it took a while for Li Beinian to react.
What the heck!
Why did he act like a molested innocent woman!
She didn’t even do anything!
She closed the window in annoyance and turned over to take her clothes and go into the bathroom.
Because it was an old house, the room where Li Beinian stayed only had a large enough closet and living space, so there was no complete bathroom.
After taking a shower and eating, Li Beinian returned to the room.
There were two windows in the room, but both windows were facing the garden.
She was so stuffy without opening the windows.
She thought about it and still opened the windows.
Sure enough, as soon as she opened the window, she saw that the opposite window was also wide open.
Fortunately, no one was there.
Li Beinian lied on her desk reading a book as well as the script Li Haoran had sent to her two days ago.
“Legend of the Dragon Pearl” was a big production, and there were many supporting roles in this drama.
In particular, Li Beinian had picked one of the most detestable villains in the drama—the favored concubine of the Dragon King, Concubine Yun.
Just when she was absorbed into the script, she heard a few sounds from outside.
It sounded like someone was knocking on the window.
Li Beinian stiffened and looked over.
Opposite, Mu Xichen was leaning halfway over the window, wearing a gray casual T-shirt, looking clean and elegant.
He had wheaty skin and a firm jawline.
He looked at her with black eyes and suddenly raised his hand.
He was holding a pink thing in his hand. Li Beinian stared at it and realized it was a mobile phone!
Her phone!
“Why is my phone with you?” Li Beinian was surprised and happy. “Are the numbers still inside?”
In the past few days, she had had no chance to go out, let alone contact Bo Chengcheng or Yang Liangyu.
She hadn’t arrived in time for dinner that day and had yet to contact them in the past few days, so she had been at her wit’s end!
Mu Xichen glanced at it and said, “You were in a coma that day, so I kept it for you. Do you still want it?”
“Of course!” Li Beinian stood up. “Can it still be turned on?”
“Yes.”
“Thank you, throw it over to me with a piece of cloth.”
“Throw?” Mu Xichen raised an eyebrow. “I won’t throw it, it’ll be spoiled.”
“No, you can put it safely in a cloth and it won’t spoil when you throw it over!”
He wasn’t far away, so he could throw it over if he put in a little force.
Mu Xichen glanced at her and said lightly, “I’ve kept it for so long, what if it spoils? If you want it, come get it yourself.”
Li Beinian was stunned. She gritted her teeth, turned angrily and walked down.
The old man saw her and wondered aloud. “Isn’t it too late to go out?”
Seeing the old man, Li Beinian said in annoyance, “Grandpa, you told me not to provoke Mu Xichen, but why didn’t you tell me that he lived right next door?”
The old man was even more surprised. He exclaimed, “Mu Xichen lives next door? When?”

Wan Lili: Chief Mu, did you really live here before?
Mu Xichen: Do you have an opinion?
