Mu Xiaocheng looked up at Lu Chi and blinked: "Why should I ask?"
Lu Chi was furious.
Is Mu Xiaocheng's brain just for show?
How can someone have such low emotional intelligence?
He lowered his head, met her gaze, and said earnestly, word by word, "It's been two years since we last met. You should at least ask about me. Otherwise, I..."
"Hmm?" Mu Xiaocheng raised an eyebrow and pressed him for an answer when she saw that he couldn't continue.
Lu Chi was a little annoyed.
"Mu Xiaocheng, do you have any conscience? I've remained chaste for you for the past two years, thinking of you every single day. And this is how you treat me?"
Mu Xiaocheng: "..." Here we go again.
She remembered that the last time, two years ago, when Lu Chi came back from the army, he seemed to have said the same thing.
Her answers have always been very clear.
She didn't like him and didn't want to say anything that might cause misunderstandings.
However, Lu Chi is not a bad person after all.
They must have suffered a lot in the army these past few years, risking their lives for their country.
If she didn't say something, it would seem too cold-blooded and heartless.
Mu Xiaocheng smiled awkwardly: "You're doing just fine. Keep trying."
What kind of perfunctory words are these?
Although it was a perfunctory job, Lu Chi was still satisfied.
This girl used to be too lazy to talk to him, and she would always look at him like he was an idiot.
This time, although she seemed very reluctant.
But... at least it encouraged him.
People should know how to be content.
Lu Chi comforted himself in this way.
Colonel Lu coughed lightly and lazily stepped in front of Mu Xiaocheng: "What happened to those two guys you beat up just now?"
Mu Xiaocheng glanced at him. So this guy saw she was in trouble and then chose to stand by and watch the show?
Oh.
Why are you looking at me like that? You were already finished when I got there.
As he spoke, Colonel Lu couldn't help but blush.
Some people are just not good at lying. When they do lie, they either blink or blush.
Lu Chi is a typical example.
Mu Xiaocheng snorted, knowing he was lying.
"I don't know who those people are either." She genuinely didn't know, but judging from the level of their childishness, they were just being precocious.
It shouldn't be the group that stopped her from investigating her father's whereabouts; those people shouldn't be that incompetent.
Hearing Mu Xiaocheng's answer, Lu Chi frowned and said, "Which bastard is it? If I find out, I'll kill him. He dares to touch my woman, he's got a death wish."
Although these words were very domineering and menacing.
But in Mu Xiaocheng's eyes, Lu Chi in front of her was still as arrogant as ever, and still as... ridiculous as ever.
Mu Xiaocheng didn't want to talk to him; this boy was toxic.
Seeing that Mu Xiaocheng was about to leave, Lu Chi quickly followed her.
As he walked, he said, "Look, you get bullied as soon as I'm not in Yundu. Don't worry, I won't leave Yundu for now. From now on, I'll protect you."
Hearing him say that, Mu Xiaocheng paused in her steps.
She turned to look at him with a brooding gaze: "What did you just say? You're not leaving Yundu for the time being?"
"Yeah, aren't you super excited to hear this news?"
Colonel Lu had a big smile on his face, looking silly, but strangely pleasing to the eye.
Mu Xiaocheng chuckled twice.
She's not happy at all. This guy is definitely not sent by God to punish her.
Seeing Mu Xiaocheng walking faster and faster, Lu Chi wanted to continue chasing after her, but Shu Yang stopped him.
"Boss, a message came from the old house saying you need to go back immediately."
Lu Chi didn't even turn his head, and firmly replied, "I'm not going."
