Chapter 575 She Was Not Even Willing to Lie to Him (Additional Update for "Wei Zhong Who Loves Pork Kidney and Walnut Soup")
Ye Xiaoman felt a little strange. In the past, Yue Mushan was very attached to her. No matter how late she slept, he would stay with her until she got up.
Even when she got up and stood in front of the bronze mirror to wash her face, he could watch her finish with interest.
The cat demon boy is very simple. Maybe it’s because he is young but he is easily satisfied. Ordinary little things in life can make him happy for a long time.
When Ye Xiaoman supported herself with her arms and sat up from the head of the bed, she pressed something with her hand.
She then realized that she had been careless last night and had forgotten to put the communication magic weapon into the storage bag.
I forgot to delete yesterday's chat history.
When she thought that Yue Mushan might see the chat records between Jiaying and her, she suddenly became nervous.
She immediately opened the chat box with Jiaying and saw the good news Jiaying sent yesterday: his snake tail had recovered into human legs.
I think Jiaying had some tricks up his sleeve, plus he had only been transformed into a snake for a short time, and he had left the special environment of the ghost prison, so Jiaying was able to recover smoothly.
Ye Xiaoman carefully admired the two photos sent by Jiaying.
Counting the days, I should go visit Jiaying today.
But the most important thing right now is to rush back to the ruins of the living.
The night in the abandoned city is no safer than the day. Xiao Chujing should have been busy all night and had no time to pay attention to her.
It didn't matter if he found out she wasn't in the room, she had a reason ready.
The communication magic weapon flashed.
Xiao Chujing sent her a new message.
The message had been there since three o'clock last night, but she was asleep at that time.
【Why isn't Junior Sister in the room? 】
Where have you been?
The latest one says: [I've looked everywhere, where are you? ]
Ye Xiaoman read those messages twice and felt that Xiao Chujing was emotionally stable and spoke clearly, and there seemed to be nothing particularly wrong.
He even accepted her absence all night.
To be on the safe side, Ye Xiaoman immediately made up an excuse.
【Last night, I discovered that a ghost was trying to harass me, so I left the room early.】
Adding details to your description can increase credibility.
[Those things crawled out of the mass grave. Did Senior Brother Xiao see that?]
Sell a little more of a sentimental persona.
[I've lured away most of the ghosts at my door. Since the light in your window was off, you must be fast asleep, so I didn't wake you up.]
[I got lost in the city and accidentally entered a teleportation array, which took me outside the city. I'm still trying to find my way back. Please wait for me.]
Xiao Chujing's reply was quick: [I'll wait for you.]
Concise and to the point, nothing wrong with it.
Ye Xiaoman thought that every time Xiao Chujing's evil spirit erupted, he would crawl in the dark and lose all rationality. Now he could still speak well, so there shouldn't be any problem.
It seemed that she had successfully fooled him again.
This excuse allowed her to buy time to see Jiaying.
She said she was looking for the way, so it was reasonable for her to spend half a day looking for it.
The landlord and Dou Xian are so capable of causing trouble that they should attract most of Xiao Chujing's attention.
Even if Xiao Chujing became impatient and had a conflict with them, the landlord and Dou Xian could hold Xiao Chujing back for a long time.
After comprehensive analysis, she has plenty of time.
Ye Xiaoman went to the living room to have breakfast as usual.
Yue Mushan still prepared the meal by himself. He stood in front of the table in a daze. The morning sun shone on him, and the silver jewelry sparkled.
His face seemed a little haggard.
Ye Xiaoman leaned over and took a closer look at his face. She even straightened the silver pendant on his forehead that was slightly crooked. "Amu, are you feeling unwell?"
Yue Mushan smiled nonchalantly and looked down at Ye Xiaoman's concerned expression.
Love, tenderness, so real.
He felt a little dazed, and his judgment was fundamentally shaken. He could no longer distinguish what was true and what was false.
Yue Mushan hugged Ye Xiaoman as he did every morning, and when the porridge was brought to Ye Xiaoman, the temperature was just right.
Ye Xiaoman smiled widely: "Amu, you are so nice."
She looked so cute when she smiled that Yue Mushan couldn't help but kiss the corner of her mouth.
He sat opposite her and they had breakfast together.
The general's mansion is still under renovation. Yue Mushan usually keeps an eye on the project and updates Ye Xiaoman on the progress at this time. He also tells her some interesting stories that happened in the mine after he became the general manager of the mine.
Ye Xiaoman would listen, share the gossip she heard outside, and tell Yue Mushan Ghost King that they had caught the wrong person again today.
Yue Mushan had not yet figured out how to deal with Ye Xiaoman's cheating, so he chose to remain as he was and pretend that he knew nothing.
Just before Ye Xiaoman hurriedly left, the calm appearance was almost broken by intense jealousy.
He couldn't help but ask Ye Xiaoman: "Sister, do you like me?"
Ye Xiaoman looked ahead, and without realizing it, she pursed her lips slightly and nodded, her movements as light as a dragonfly skimming the water.
Yue Mushan then realized that Ye Xiaoman seemed to subconsciously avoid directly answering the questions of "Do you love me?" or "Do you like me?"
Is it because she subconsciously feels that lying is bad and so she doesn't want to face it? She is not that bad in nature, right? Yue Mushan sadly discovered that even as a victim, he had been pleading for Ye Xiaoman.
He even noticed that Ye Xiaoman would occasionally touch the tip of her nose when she felt guilty, and he couldn't help but smile at her little humane gesture.
After Ye Xiaoman stepped over the threshold, Yue Mushan stood on the other side of the threshold in the house and asked her.
"So, between me and Master Jiaying, who do you like more, sister?"
The boy's tone was sharp. He knew that if he kept on talking, if he kept on chattering, he would not be able to hide it anymore, but he couldn't help but ask.
Ye Xiaoman seemed not to hear anything. She walked briskly without stopping for a moment and quickly merged into the crowd on the main road in front of the general's mansion.
Yue Mushan sighed.
She didn't even want to lie to him.
"You just let her go like that?"
In the accounting office, the fox demon cried out in disbelief, "Not only did she not make a scene, she didn't even ask for an explanation?"
Yue Mushan sat at the desk with his back to the fox demon, still helping Ye Xiaoman with the accounts. Four or five abacuses were circling around him, automatically calculating the amounts with a crackling sound.
Yue Mushan said calmly: "What else?"
"Aren't you angry?"
"Did you use the camera to take photos of her conversation with Jiaying?"
The fox demon fully demonstrated what it meant to be in a hurry and to piss off friends and family. When he listened to Yue Mushan's narration about Jiaying's various deeds in the communication magic weapon, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
He forgot about hierarchy and jumped to Yue Mushan's side to snatch away his accounting pen.
"At this point, the young master is still helping her manage the household?"
If Yue Mushan hadn't stopped her, the fox demon would have torn the account book into pieces long ago.
Yue Mushan's expression was numb. As the saying goes, there is no greater sorrow than a dead heart.
Compared to Ye Xiaoman's cheating and betrayal, the fact that she seemed to have never loved him made him even more desperate.
If she had protected him a little bit in front of Jiaying, shown a little preference, or even without preference, as long as she showed that she loved him as much as she loved Jiaying, he would not have been so sad.
"Yun Hu, what should I do?"
The fox demon slammed the table and kicked the stool fiercely, looking too excited, as if he was the one being cheated on.
"Go find Jiaying and make trouble!"
"Let's go beat up the mistress!"
