Chapter 2916: Her Pressure...

"You don’t have to tell me, I’ll find out myself! I don’t believe I can’t uncover it!"

Li Mingxi’s face turned paler.

Thankfully, she had her back to him, so Xiao Lang couldn’t see it.

Li Mingxi didn’t turn around, she waved down a taxi, got in, and left immediately.

But all that echoed in her mind was Xiao Lang’s resolute tone.

He said he would find out...

She knew he might not be able to, yet she was still worried, very scared.

Not worried he’d find it out, worried he’d be implicated.

If Xiao Lang learned the truth, he would definitely go all out to help her, to save her.

But he simply can’t fight them...

She can’t implicate him, harm him!

Li Mingxi no longer knew what to do, was her only option to quickly find someone and get married so Xiao Lang would give up?

Li Mingxi stared blankly out the window when suddenly, a familiar face leapt into her sight.

Li Mingxi’s eyes widened in terror—

She slowly turned her head, looked carefully, and saw nothing.

Was that moment just her eyes playing tricks, or did she really see it?

Or was it just someone similar?

But Li Mingxi knew it definitely wasn’t that person, otherwise, she wouldn’t be existing peacefully now.

Yet that fleeting glimpse still made Li Mingxi shudder and tremble with fear...

...

Li Mingxi returned home, and her mother, sitting on the living room sofa, gleefully said, "Mingxi, I’ve found several good prospects for you again, make time to meet them someday."

Li Mingxi’s mind was still unsettled.

"Mom, didn’t you say I shouldn’t go on blind dates for the time being?"

"Yes, that was temporary. I want you to get married this year, so I’ve had people looking everywhere for good prospects, I guarantee these ones have no issues."

Li Grandma, supported by a servant, walked over.

"Your mother’s right, you must marry this year. Next year, give me a great-grandchild, so we can be at ease."

Li Mingxi didn’t blame her family at all for their urgent desire for her to get married.

But how could she dare to marry, wouldn’t that harm someone else?

Yet she had said she must get married...

"Mom, you decide." Li Mingxi said helplessly, heading upstairs.

Back in the bedroom, Li Mingxi clutched her chest, gasping for breath.

She felt like she’d soon go crazy from the invisible pressure tormenting her!

On one side was the pressure Xiao Lang put on her, on another the pressure from her family, and on the other, the pressure from her own secret...

No, she couldn’t keep thinking about it, or else she’d truly collapse!

Li Mingxi quickly turned on rock music and began to sway madly.

As long as she could shed the pressure, she didn’t mind acting like a lunatic.

Li Mingxi jumped hard, sang, swung her head, and after some time had passed, she collapsed onto her bed, both body and mind relaxed.

"Mingxi, what are you doing, it’s so loud!" Li Mother knocked on the door, asking loudly.

Li Mingxi got up and turned off the music.

Li Mother didn’t wait for her response and didn’t ask again.

Li Mingxi calmed her heartbeat then took her pajamas for a shower.

But while washing her hair, a lot suddenly fell out.

Looking at the handfuls of hair in her hand, Li Mingxi felt a shiver down her spine, and unable to hold back anymore, she hugged herself and cried bitterly.

All along, Li Mingxi thought she was strong, fearless.
