"Yanran, what's wrong with you?" As soon as Yanran came into the classroom, she lay on the table listlessly, without any energy at all.

Those who usually play well with her immediately went up to her and asked.

"Well, nothing." Mu Yanran glanced at her, then lay down on the table again and replied weakly.

"You're fine, aren't you? Look at you, you look haggard lately. Did you not sleep well?"

"Well, you didn't fall asleep at all?"

"What happened?" The other people who usually surrounded her also came over.

Everyone in the class knew that Mu Yanran was the daughter of the Mu Group and the younger sister of Mu Jingjue. Becoming good friends with her and establishing a relationship with her would bring benefits in the future.

They were all happy to be around her, so Mu Yanran was always surrounded by a few little followers.

"Everyone, go away. Didn't you see Yanran is sleeping? Let's go to class. Stop making noise here."

My deskmate Xu Zhiqing dismissed everyone who was around and sat alone next to her.

She was the daughter of the Xu family, and no one dared to mess with her. After all, she was petty, and if she held a grudge against you, it would be disastrous. So everyone avoided her if they could, and tried to please her if they could.

"Zhiqing, you're here?" Mu Yanran looked up at her when she saw her coming.

"Why do you have this expression lately? Did your brother's new sister-in-law bully you?" she asked with concern.

Xu Zhiqing had the best relationship with her and would tell her everything, and she also told her about her brother's marriage.

"No?"

"Why are you afraid of her? If she bullies you, then you can bully her back. If that doesn't work, tell your brother about it. If your brother finds out, are you still afraid that he won't punish her?"

"Look at what she's capable of. She lives in your house and yet she's still so arrogant."

"You're the daughter of the Mu family? Who is she? How dare she wink at you? Don't spoil her, fight back."

"I just don't believe it. She's only been here a few days, and your brother is already letting her bully you."

What she said was a bit extreme. Mu Yanran frowned. Although she hated the other person, she didn't bully her much after all. She couldn't be unreasonable and frame her.

"Let's talk about it later. She didn't do anything to me."

"You are too easy to bully. Even when people bully you, you still say nice things to them. You always say we can talk about it later. Next time she bullies you, don't cry to me." She said indignantly.

"Don't worry, it won't happen." Mu Yanran comforted her.

"All right."

Then her eyes rolled around, and she didn't know what fun thing she was thinking of. Her eyes suddenly lit up, and she leaned close to her ear and said, "After school this afternoon, if you have nothing to do, let's go shopping. After shopping, I'll take you to have some fun."

"Hmm? What are you playing?"

"Keep it a secret. You'll know in the afternoon."

"But I have to go home on time, otherwise my brother will scold me if he finds out." Mu Yanran said in a dilemma, looking like a good baby. She usually has a fixed schedule and never does anything outside the specified time. If there is anything, she has to tell her brother.

"Hey, isn't your brother on a business trip? He can't take care of you when he's abroad." Xu Zhiqing said indifferently.

"But..." Mu Yanran was blocked by her before she could finish her words.

"But what's the matter? You're 16, not 6. Your brother is too strict with you. It's nice to go out and play occasionally. You're just too obedient."

"Or do you not want to play with us at all? If you think so, I will be angry." She turned her head away as she spoke, showing that she was angry.

Seeing her friend suddenly angry, Mu Yanran panicked and quickly comforted her, compromising: "Don't worry, I'll go, is that not okay? Okay, okay, don't be angry."

She shook her hand and soothed her.

Xu Zhiqing's lips curled slightly, a look of triumph on her face. Humph, quite easy to fool, she agreed when she got angry.

"Really?" she pretended to doubt.

"Yes, really." Mu Yanran nodded.

She had wanted to have a companion since she was a child, but later Sister Si went to school and work and often did not come to play with her, so she felt very lonely. Since there was someone who played well with her, she wanted to be as nice to her as possible. Therefore, every time Xu Zhiqing showed a little anger, she would agree, because she liked her very much and did not want to make her angry and lose her as a playmate.

"I knew Yanran was the best to me." When she heard that Mu Yanran was going with her, she happily took her arm.

Mu Yanran was a little uneasy. She had never run out to do something when her brother was not at home before.

After school in the afternoon, she called home and told her grandmother that she was going shopping with her classmates tonight and would not be back for dinner.

Grandma thought it was nothing to go out to eat with classmates, so she just let her do as she pleased and didn't take it to heart.

After getting permission, they set out shopping together.
