At the last concert, he thought that Shen Lanxin paid him to go so as to humiliate him in front of Gu Nan, but Gu Nan was not there at all. Instead, Shen Lanxin helped him deal with Du Ziyan and even made him call her Lanxin.
So what's the reason this time? Is it because something happened at Gu Nan's concert, so they called me over again to humiliate me?
Regardless of the reason, Mu Liuyun, who had just issued a declaration of independence, wouldn't make a fool of himself. He revealed a resolute look and typed on his phone.
"Excuse me, Lan Xin, I won't disturb you and Young Master Gu."
Just as I was about to click send, my phone suddenly rang: "Ding, KunPay has received your payment of [amount] yuan."
Delete and re-enter!
"Okay, Lanxin, I have time."
"bite!"
The green bubble made a sound again, and Mu Liuyun looked down.
"Brother, who are you chatting with?"
Holy crap!
Just moments before, Mu Liuyun was basking in the joy brought by money when she looked up and was startled to see Mu Xiaoxi suddenly appear before her. She almost jumped up in fright.
Having just finished showering, Mu Xiaoxi carried a strong scent of sweet oranges, which made Mu Liuyun touch her chest involuntarily. She asked somewhat unhappily, "Xiaoxi, why didn't you make a sound?"
Mu Xiaoxi pouted: "It's all because you were chatting too intently, brother. You didn't see me, but you heard the hairdryer being turned off, didn't you?"
"Oh, isn't this wonderful?"
Hearing this, Mu Xiaoxi felt a pang of pain in her heart.
Happy? What's so happy about it? Are you really that happy chatting with that woman?
Although she felt uncomfortable, Mu Xiaoxi still kept a smile on her face: "Hey~ Brother, you're not dating someone, are you?"
"A girlfriend? Look at my brother, what girl would even look at him?"
As Mu Liuyun spoke, she shook her head with a wry smile.
However, although there were no girls, there were quite a few boys.
"Oh dear, if all else fails, brother, you still have Little Stream~"
"Thank you, Xiaoxi."
Mu Liuyun knew that Xiaoxi was trying to comfort her, so of course she didn't take it seriously. She just looked at Mu Xiaoxi gently and said nothing more.
Seeing this, Mu Xiaoxi lay down on Mu Liuyun's lap again.
"Brother, have you seen my friends?"
Nonsense, I'm not blind.
Mu Liuyun certainly couldn't answer like that, because Xiaoxi, who had asked the question, seemed a little sad at that moment: "I saw it, what's wrong?"
“They are all friends I met in high school. They are a group of children whose parents are divorced. They are often bullied, so they gathered together. But they just dye their hair and have never done anything bad.”
"You can tell they're all good kids."
He also knew someone who smoked, drank, and permed his hair every day, and was a teacher. What's so special about just dyeing your hair?
"They are so pitiful..."
Mu Liuyun stroked Mu Xiaoxi's hair without saying a word. Mu Liuyun knew that Xiaoxi was missing her parents.
At its peak, Old Man Mu's orphanage house had more than a dozen children.
Most of the children got lost and were taken away by their parents after only a few months. Only four children, including Mu Liuyun and Mu Xiaoxi, stayed with Old Man Mu.
Later, the two older children grew up and left, only occasionally sending money to Mu Liuyun. However, after Mu Liuyun started delivering food, this money was returned.
Unlike Mu Xiaoxi and Mu Liuyun, who were chosen orphans in two lifetimes, Mu Xiaoxi, like Shi Hengyu, lost both her parents in an accident when she was young.
At that time, Mu Xiaoxi was already six years old and had memories of her parents.
When she was little, Mu Xiaoxi often woke up crying in the middle of the night and needed Mu Liuyun to coax her back to sleep for a while.
Mu Liuyun knew that he and Old Man Mu could bring warmth to Mu Xiaoxi's family, but they could never replace her parents.
"Brother, can we sleep together tonight?"
"Okay, but you can't hug me!"
Okay~
After Mu Xiaoxi sweetly replied "okay," she climbed off Mu Liuyun's lap and went back to her room to hug her pillow and blanket.
Watching Mu Xiaoxi's retreating figure, Mu Liuyun patted her cheeks to perk herself up before going to wash up.
When they got back to their room, Mu Xiaoxi was already lying on the bed with her blanket. As soon as she saw Mu Liuyun, she excitedly patted the bed and urged Mu Liuyun on.
"You silly child."
Mu Liuyun turned off the light and lay down on the bed.
Goodnight, brother.
"good evening."
Mu Xiaoxi obediently did not hug Mu Liuyun, but turned around and faced away from Mu Liuyun.
Mu Liuyun, who had spent the whole day reviewing documents with Chu Yaqin, lay down and closed her eyes. After a short while, she began to breathe steadily.
"Brother, brother?"
After quietly confirming that Mu Liuyun was asleep, Mu Xiaoxi's pure and lovely face immediately showed a "planned" expression.
"My brother is good in every way, except that he is too soft-hearted."
Missing her parents is real, but wanting to use this opportunity to get closer to Mu Liuyun is also real.
Her parents' situation is a permanent pain in Mu Xiaoxi's heart. But Mu Xiaoxi knows that future happiness is more important than past suffering.
The Mu Xiaoxi of the past would never use this reason as an excuse to ask Mu Liuyun for more affection. Because doing so would be unfair to both her parents in heaven and Mu Liuyun. She only wanted Mu Liuyun to gradually realize that she didn't want to be his sister, allowing their relationship to develop naturally.
But recently, the situation has changed.
First, there was Chu Yaqin, who appeared out of nowhere. Her brother had disappeared that day without his phone, and Chu Yaqin was inextricably linked to it. If Mu Liuyun hadn't returned the next day still carrying the scent of virginity, Mu Xiaoxi was truly afraid she might have done something rash.
So Mu Xiaoxi really disliked the woman named Chu Yaqin, but her grandfather seemed to like her very much and even wanted her brother to marry her.
This won't do!
Mu Lixiong is old, too old, he's senile!
There's only one person my brother can marry, and that's Mu Xiaoxi!
Therefore, Mu Xiaoxi can only speed up the process now, even resorting to some underhanded tactics.
"But that's precisely why I like my brother."
As she spoke, Mu Xiaoxi stroked Mu Liuyun's lips again and again, but ultimately did nothing.
Mu Liuyun has just fallen asleep and may not be in a deep sleep yet, so there's no need for her to be in such a hurry.
After all, the night is still long.
...
On one hand, Mu Xiaoxi was happy, but on the other hand, Shen Lanxin was in a terrible state. As the saying goes, "Since ancient times, empty love has only led to more regret, and this regret will last forever."
