Chapter 429: Chapter 429: Catching the Last Minute

“Dudu…” The mobile phone rang a few times, followed by the mechanical voice of a woman, “Sorry, the user you are calling is currently unable to take your call. Please try again later.”
Chi Enen set down her phone in disappointment, then glanced at the quartz clock on the edge of the wall. It was already 11:10 pm. Was he still not done with work? freewebnøvel.coɱ
In 50 more minutes, today would be over…
The fresh flowers and red wine laid out in the restaurant were unbearably lonely.
She tightened her lips and dialed Li Beijue’s number again.
“Dudu…”
The phone connected.
Her heart had lifted to her throat.
At last, a speaking voice came through, “Sorry, the user you are calling is currently unable to take your call. Please try again later.”
It was still sorry, the user you are calling is currently unable to take your call. Please try again later…
Her lifted heart suddenly fell.
Forget it, nothing can be done if work is busy. Chi Enen took a deep breath, turned down the television’s volume, and continued to wait on the sofa—
The hour hand on the wall clock moved every minute and second, and the two hands were about to meet.
She had become drowsy.
Finally!
There was the sound of a door opening from the entryway.
Click—
The light in the entryway was turned on, and a familiar figure appeared at the doorway.
Chi Enen suddenly woke up and turned her head to look toward the entryway—
The man’s tall figure was perfect no matter when she saw it; that distinct and haughty noble air belonged to no one else but Li Beijue.
“You’re back?” As if she had waited for his return!
“Yes.”
Chi Enen quickly glanced at the clock, 11:59 pm.
She quickly got up, ran to the dining table, and held out the box with the tie clip in front of him, her smile radiating, “Happy birthday, Li Beijue.”
She had suppressed it all day, and the moment he came home to her sweet smile and the gift she presented was all the healing he needed. Li Beijue suddenly felt his throat go dry, his falcon-like eyes fixed on the little lady in front of him, and his Adam’s Apple moved, “What did you say?”
Chi Enen was a bit embarrassed, “I had also prepared a dinner for you, but it’s so late, I’m sure you’ve already eaten. Luckily, I just made the last minute.”
Chi Enen pushed the gift closer to him, her smile sweet, “Happy birthday, Li Beijue. Baby and I bought this gift for you together. See if you like it.”
Her sweetness when she smiled at him was the best gift ever!
In more than twenty years, there hadn’t been a better gift than this!
Li Beijue didn’t take the gift, but instead pushed her against the wall and sealed her sweet small mouth with a kiss.
A wave of alcoholic breath overwhelmed her, and although Chi Enen’s first reaction was discomfort, she did not push him away and naively went along with his passionate kiss.
Her cooperation was a kind of ignition.
After the kiss ended, Li Beijue already felt the changes in his body.
He didn’t follow his desires to carry her into the bedroom and just devour her. Instead, he restrained his urges, let her go, picked up the gift she had bought for him, and looked down to open it, asking in a husky voice, “What’s inside?”
“Take a look and you’ll find out.”
Li Beijue unwrapped the paper and saw the brand’s logo. He knew this sign; it belonged to an A-list brand in luxury goods.
His robust wrist paused, and he continued to open the box.
In the delicate velvet box, a simple diamond tie clip caught his eye. Li Beijue’s dark pupils narrowed to needle-tip size—
