Li Mengru had always been gentle and obedient and had never directly contradicted him so quickly, but this time, she asked so urgently. Mr. Li was slightly displeased but still patient with Li Mengru, "Mengru, we were just chatting casually, and you're so concerned about Lu Beiyao, why are you so anxious?"
Li Mengru pursed her lips and couldn't find the words to respond.
Mr. Li continued, "He's been staying at our home for so many days, and last night you even brought the drunk him back here, yet he hasn't mentioned anything about marriage with you. Mengru, if word gets out about your actions, it won't reflect well on your reputation."
"It was late last night, no one knows I brought him home," Li Mengru said, thoroughly losing her confidence after Mr. Li's few words.
