The first day of her two-day holiday was spent sleeping, collecting her mecha, and having dinner with Mu Chen. On the second day, Mingmei had to wake up again five hours after saying goodnight to Mu Chen, amidst Lu Xiaoyao's bombardment of her personal terminal and knocking on the door.
Sure enough, if Lu Xiaoyao were Mu Chen, Mingmei was certain Mu Chen would become her ex. ORZ
"say."
Despite being dragged out of school early in the morning by Lu Xiaoyao and treated to an expensive morning tea, Mingmei still had no intention of forgiving Lu Xiaoyao.
She felt she needed a clear explanation from Lu Xiaoyao.
What was it that made Lu Xiaoyao, who always liked to sleep in on holidays, drag her out of bed for breakfast?
Mingmei, who hadn't slept well, was in a bad mood today, but Lu Xiaoyao had seen her cold face many times before, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
However, Mingmei seemed colder than usual today, speaking bluntly and constantly eating.
Mingmei, with a delicate and translucent worm-meat dumpling between her fingers, looked up at Lu Xiaoyao, whose eyes were dark and swollen. This morning, as soon as she saw Lu Xiaoyao, she knew that the other party must have encountered some serious problem.
This problem had been bothering her for quite some time, and she needed to find the answer herself.
Otherwise—given her cultivator-like appearance, she shouldn't be looking for me so early in the morning.
"I was torn about it all day yesterday."
Lu Xiaoyao said this with a serious expression.
"You ended up not figuring anything out."
Mingmei naturally picked up on Lu Xiaoyao's summer sentence.
Lu Xiaoyao: "..."
Very well, she can remain silent for the time it takes to say a sentence.
"Back then... ah, what was your response after Mu Chen confessed to you?"
Bright and beautiful: ? ? ?
Someone confessed their feelings to you?
Mingmei wasn't stupid. Lu Xiaoyao wouldn't ask her this question for no reason. And looking at how she had been agonizing over this question all day, it was clear that something had happened to Lu Xiaoyao.
Stunned by Mingmei's direct question, Lu Xiaoyao nodded slightly, looking embarrassed.
"From our school?"
Lu Xiaoyao shook her head.
Julian confessed his feelings to you?
Upon hearing that she wasn't from this school, Mingmei immediately mentioned Julian's name, which startled Lu Xiaoyao!
That's incredibly accurate!
Mingmei saw Lu Xiaoyao's eyes widen, as if she had been told the truth, and Mingmei thought to herself, "Just as I thought."
No wonder Lu Gui had misunderstood before.
So this is the mysterious premonition of becoming the brother-in-law?
Neither side realized anything was going on before he started taking precautions!
Are you planning to refuse?
"without……"
"Then I agree."
"No... I mean, is that... like this?"
"ah?"
Mingmei lowered her head and took a sip of fish porridge. She slowly looked up at Lu Xiaoyao's bewildered expression, as if she had just said something profound that Lu Xiaoyao hadn't understood!
"What else? You're not rejecting it, which means you want to be in a relationship too. What are you hesitating about?"
Upon hearing Mingmei's words, Lu Xiaoyao quietly asked, "Are you and Mu Chen getting along so... smoothly?"
"Yes, he even came to visit my family and my parents during the Chinese New Year. Everything went very smoothly for us. Have you ever seen any obstacles between us?"
Lu Xiaoyao: "...?"
Is it really that silky smooth?
Have you met the parents?
Mingmei thought that Lu Xiaoyao had been persuaded by her, but then she saw that Lu Xiaoyao's gaze towards her was even more complicated.
"Just say what you have to say."
"Ah... that..." Lu Xiaoyao hesitated. She had been so engrossed in shipping the couple both online and offline that she hadn't realized anything was wrong at the time. But now, thinking about Mingmei and Muchen's interactions offline, and then thinking about Muchen's interactions with the mysterious merchant in the game.
For a moment, Lu Xiaoyao even began to doubt herself.
"When did you two get together? Who confessed?"
Lu Xiaoyao suddenly realized that she didn't seem to know when Mu Chen and Mingmei got together!
"It'll be during the Imperial Celebration Banquet, I guess." Mingmei wanted to say "in the game," but thankfully she stopped herself.
My disguise almost got exposed!
"oh……"
It seems there's something to it. Lu Xiaoyao thought for a moment, then glanced at Mingmei and asked, "Did you know that Mu Chen also has a crush on an NPC in the game who looks just like you? Even though she looks exactly like you, don't you mind?"
"You've been shipping them for so long, and you're only just realizing this?"
"Cough cough cough cough!"
Lu Xiaoyao blushed slightly when Mingmei suddenly exposed her shortcomings. How could Mingmei know such things so clearly?
"This matter... isn't as dramatic as you think, don't overthink it." Mingmei had no hope for Lu Xiaoyao's dry descriptive ability or her strange thought process.
She was afraid that if she said anything else, Lu Xiaoyao would misunderstand even more.
However, the more she said that, the more wildly Lu Xiaoyao imagined it.
So, Mingmei quickly changed the subject to divert Lu Xiaoyao's attention: "Why did Julian suddenly confess to you?"
"ah……"
When asked this, Lu Xiaoyao blushed a little, her eyes darting around, and she mumbled, "He... he just suddenly confessed."
"Um?"
Do you remember that the last time they met was when they played "Lady Dewi's Villa"?
Moreover, their interactions in the game didn't seem that sweet?
At least she didn't see any comments in the live stream about shipping them as a couple, so why did he suddenly confess?
