Chapter 874 Caught Off Guard
In the early morning, the first ray of sunlight shone through the window and hit Murong's face. She was awakened by the sunlight. When she opened her eyes, she realized that she came back late yesterday and forgot to close the curtains when she rested.
Now that she was awake, Murong didn't plan to sleep again. She had no plans for the day and was going to have a good rest at home.
Murong came out of the room and opened the refrigerator. There were only some eggs and yogurt in the refrigerator, and the fruit was not very fresh. Her aunt had something going on at home and resigned some time ago. She didn't look for another job, so she couldn't have breakfast now.
Murong changed her clothes and prepared to go out to buy some breakfast. However, she didn't expect to see Qiao Yunxi's car again when she came out of the villa.
Murong hesitated, not knowing whether he should continue walking.
Qiao Yunxi would wait here for a while every morning. Sometimes, he knew that there was no one in the villa, but he still thought that she might show up in a while.
Today, Qiao Yunxi didn't know whether he could see Murong. He looked at the time and prepared to drive away, but when he looked up, he met Murong's eyes looking at him.
Qiao Yunxi got out of the car immediately. He looked at Murong, noticed her casual clothes, and asked with concern, "You don't have to go to work today?"
Murong didn't know how to face Qiao Yunxi. Every time they met, she rejected him verbally, but Qiao Yunxi still looked as if nothing had happened and would appear in front of her again the next time.
Qiao Yunxi said, "If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent. By the way, have you eaten?"
Murong felt that this was an excuse to stay away from Qiao Yunxi, so he shook his head and said, "I was just about to go buy it."
Murong was about to leave when she finished speaking. Qiao Yunxi quickly grabbed her sleeve, but immediately let go when he realized something was wrong.
"You don't have to buy anything. I brought you breakfast. There's your favorite shrimp dumplings, coconut porridge, and..."
Qiao Yunxi mentioned many kinds in a row, all of which were what Murong liked. She was not only surprised but also unbelievable.
"Did you bring this especially for me?"
"You don't have to do this. I told you..."
"Don't be responsible." Qiao Yunxi interrupted Murong and said the second half of what she wanted to say.
"You don't have to repeat it over and over again. I've memorized it."
"Then you still..." Murong didn't know what to say. She didn't understand why Qiao Yunxi always caught her off guard when he came.
Qiao Yunxi said, "Don't worry, I respect your opinion now and won't say anything about taking responsibility. But I did hurt you after all, so you should let me do something to make yourself feel at ease, right? Since you said you didn't care about what happened that night and you still treat me like your third brother, since I'm your third brother, I have a guilty conscience and you don't have to refuse me if I'm nice to you, right?"
Qiao Yunxi has figured it out these days. Murong is now rejecting him. If he wants to contact her, he can only blur the conflict between the two. No matter what reason he uses, the first step is to dispel her rejection.
Murong was upset by Qiao Yunxi's words.
She did say that she didn't care and that they should get along as before. Now Qiao Yunxi really did what she said, just wanting to compensate her a little. There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with that.
"What do you think? My request is not excessive, right?" Qiao Yunxi asked while Murong was thinking.
Murong couldn't figure out the problem for a while, so he could only shake his head passively, "Not too much."
"Okay, breakfast is in the car, I'll get it."
Qiao Yunxi's first step of the plan was perfectly implemented, and he finally felt relieved.
After many days, he once again stepped into Murong's villa.
Last time, Qiao Yunxi's mind was full of confusion and he didn't take a good look at Murong's residence. This time when he entered the door, he only felt that Murong looked much more cheerful and lively than her brother. However, her private aesthetic taste could not be said to be exactly the same as her brother's, but it could be said to be completely the same.
She lived in the villa almost exactly as it was designed when it was built, and had no renovation style of her own. He remembered that Murong was not like this when she was a child.
Qiao Yunxi came to the dining table, opened the lunch boxes one by one, handed the spoon to Murong, and asked, "Have you moved out of the old house and lived here all the time? I remember you loved the pink princess room when you were a child."
Murong paused holding the spoon and looked at her house. Except for the stuffed dolls on the sofa and bed that she brought from the old house, the rest of the house was indeed very business-like, almost like a hotel.
Murong scooped up the coconut porridge in front of him and said, "The room in the old house was decorated by my parents. This is where I can stay after work. It doesn't matter whether it is decorated or not."
The next second after Murong finished speaking, he tried to smile, but in Qiao Yunxi's opinion, this smile was not contagious at all, and it was just a stiff movement of pulling the corners of his lips.
Qiao Yunxi frowned inadvertently.
