Chapter 52.
In the hotel lobby, students who knew each other sat together in groups of three or four, talking about the interesting things they encountered during the trip. However, when Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing also came to the hotel lobby to gather, these people more or less couldn't help but look at them.
When seeing Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing again this time, everyone felt that there seemed to be some indescribable changes between them. They seemed to be closer, or compared to before when there always seemed to be something subtly wrong, now they were much more harmonious.
Qian Yirong let Xu Baiqing hold her arm and sit down on the sofa beside her. The luggage was placed next to their sofa. Qian Yirong didn't care about other people's gazes, whether implicit or obvious.
Without the constraints of the plot, Qian Yirong no longer acted out that kind of vague rejection of Xu Baiqing. Seeing that it was still early, Qian Yirong asked the waiter to bring them some water. She saw that Xu Baiqing's lips were a little dry, and she thought he was a little thirsty.
"You look thirsty. Drink some water first." Qian Yirong said considerately.
"Hehe, thank you Rongrong." Xu Baiqing took the water handed to him by Qian Yirong. This was the first time that she was so considerate to him in front of others. Before, when there were outsiders around, she would show some rejection of her.
Looking at Xu Baiqing's well-behaved appearance, Qian Yirong couldn't help but touch her head, and Xu Baiqing rubbed it subconsciously. It seemed like there was a barrier between the two of them, and no one could interfere.
Some people's eyes sparkled when they saw this scene. There had been some vague rumors before, and now it seemed that the relationship between the two was indeed confusing. And just like what the rapidly growing mysterious organization said, there was something fishy going on between the two.
Mu Zexuan finally arrived when the gathering time was almost here. There were obvious dark circles under his eyes, and it was obvious that he definitely did not get enough rest last night. Mu Zexuan only rested for a while when it was almost dawn today.
After almost a day of hard work, although he found a few more videos, he really didn't find anything useful and could only give up regretfully. Mu Zexuan really didn't know why Xu Baiqing turned a blind eye to the abnormality shown by Qian Yirong.
From the moment it happened in the gymnasium warehouse, Mu Zexuan felt that the incident was definitely related to Qian Yirong, and when the two of them fell into the sea before, Mu Zexuan even saw with his own eyes that Qian Yirong was trying to push Xu Baiqing into the sea.
In Mu Zexuan's eyes, all these things added up and Qian Yirong wanted to kill Xu Baiqing. Xu Baiqing still trusted her so much, which was simply sending a sheep into a tiger's mouth. Mu Zexuan didn't even dare to imagine how easy it would be for Qian Yirong to harm Xu Baiqing.
But this is not Xu Baiqing's fault. She is just too simple and kind. A cunning person like Qian Yirong will of course deceive Xu Baiqing. This time there is no way to expose Qian Yirong's true face in front of Xu Baiqing. Mu Zexuan can only give up temporarily, but he will still keep an eye on Qian Yirong and will not let her hurt Xu Baiqing.
Xu Baiqing looked at Mu Zexuan who was looking at them with burning eyes, and couldn't help but roll her eyes implicitly. This guy was really persistent. She had already said that she and Qian Yirong were doing well, so why did this guy want her to break up with Qian Yirong?
It just so happened that Qian Yirong really had to leave school temporarily. Although Qian Yirong had her own reasons, it was also because of Mu Zexuan's harassment. So naturally Xu Baiqing put the blame on Mu Zexuan.
Although it was not appropriate to openly express her rejection of Mu Zexuan now, Xu Baiqing was still happy to find him something to do, just like before, and she had just read the message Qu Xueer sent her.
Mu Zexuan hasn't given up the idea of finding trouble for Qian Yirong. Rather than letting him keep an eye on Qian Yirong and herself, it is better to let Mu Zexuan do something and not disturb them.
As the gathering time arrived, the teacher in charge confirmed that everyone was present, and heaved a sigh of relief with a smile on his face. To be honest, the free time kept the teacher in charge very busy.
If anything happened to any one of these students, it would be like the sky falling. Fortunately, nothing happened to the students and they all went back to the hotel to rest at night. Now that the school trip is finally over, she can have a good rest after taking everyone back.
The return trip was still by chartered flight. After the plane landed safely, all the students were picked up by their families. What surprised Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing was that Qian Chengshu actually came to the airport.
"Brother, how come you have time to come here?" Xu Baiqing asked.
"This is the first time you've traveled far away since you came back. Your parents are worried, so they asked me to pick you up." Qian Chengshu's gaze swept over Xu Baiqing, then glanced at Qian Yirong beside her, with some deep meaning flashing in his eyes.
Qian Yirong saw the indifference in Qian Chengshu's eyes and had some guesses in her mind. This man would not do anything without profit, so how could he really come to the airport to pick someone up? Later, Qian Yirong indeed saw Qian Chengshu's eyes wandering around the airport, and his eyes lit up when he saw something.
"Qingqing, come with me and say hello." Qiancheng Shu said.
Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing followed his gaze and saw Mu Zexuan and the others. Qian Chengshu's intention was obvious. He probably wanted to use Xu Baiqing to establish a relationship with Mu Zexuan and the others.
"Mr. Mu, I didn't expect to meet you by chance." Qian Chengshu greeted him.
Mu Zexuan frowned at the person who suddenly came to say hello. He had seen too many people like this who wanted to get close to him. Normally, he didn't want to pay attention to such people, but when he remembered that he was Xu Baiqing's brother, his brows slowly relaxed and his attitude softened.
Qian Chengshu noticed that the usually unruly Mu Zexuan had a gentle attitude towards him, and he felt relieved and his attitude became much more natural. Xu Baiqing stood not far away and watched the two people talking happily, and the silence in his heart was about to overflow.
Just now, Qian Yirong realized that Qian Chengshu was not welcome to her, so she simply said hello and left. Xu Baiqing originally planned to go to Qian Yirong's place and find a chance to stay overnight, but Qian Chengshu's appearance completely disrupted her plan. He used the excuse that her family missed her and asked her to go back, and now he is using her to get in touch with Mu Zexuan.
He really thought she was a naive person who couldn't understand what the Qian family meant. If it wasn't the time to fall out yet, Xu Baiqing really wanted to follow Qian Yirong and leave regardless of anything.
"Qingqing, come here quickly," Qian Chengshu suddenly called out. Seeing Xu Baiqing approaching obediently, he felt very satisfied. He said, "Qingqing is in the same class as Mr. Mu and Mr. Li. I'll ask you to take care of her."
"Don't worry, I...we will." Mu Zexuan agreed immediately. With Brother Xu Baiqing's words, he had a legitimate reason to approach Xu Baiqing.
But Mu Zexuan didn't think about it. If he had heard such words before, he would definitely sneer at them. Not to mention taking care of them, he would definitely ignore them as he thought it was too troublesome, instead of being so warm-hearted.
"Then we won't bother you. Your family is waiting for us." Qian Chengshu knew that trying to get too close was as bad as too little. In any case, he had to leave an impression on Mu Zexuan first, and everything would be easy afterwards.
Qian Chengshu behaved like a good brother who loved his sister very much. He personally pulled Xu Baiqing's suitcase to his own car. After he left the sight of Mu Zexuan and others, the gentle smile on his face faded a little.
When the driver saw Qian Chengshu and Xu Baiqing coming, he quickly got out of the car, took the suitcase from Qian Chengshu's hand and put it in the trunk. Then he opened the back door, watched the two get in, gently closed the door, and returned to the driver's seat.
"Go back." Qian Chengshu said lightly.
The driver responded and started the car. He observed the atmosphere between the two people in the back seat and knew from their expressions that they must have something to talk about, so he immediately raised the partition between the front and back seats.
"Qingqing, Mu Zexuan has a good impression of you." Qian Chengshu said directly.
"Brother, are you kidding?" Xu Baiqing laughed and obviously didn't want to respond.
"Mu Zexuan is the heir of the Mu family. If you marry him and become the mistress of the Mu family, it will only benefit the family." Qian Chengshu said, making it clear that he wanted Xu Baiqing to marry Mu Zexuan to support the Qian family. As for Xu Baiqing's feelings for Mu Zexuan, that was not important.
"But..." Xu Baiqing showed a hesitant expression on her face, but she sneered in her heart, why don't you marry Mu Zexuan, maybe you can swallow up the Mu family.
"Qingqing, Mu Zexuan is a good match. Being with him will not only make you happy, but you will also be able to help the family." Qian Chengshu seemed to be advising for Xu Baiqing's own good.
"I understand." Knowing that if she showed any resistance, not only Qian Chengshu, but also the Qian family couple would brainwash her, Xu Baiqing was too lazy to waste time talking to these people and pretended to be convinced.
"It's great that you can figure it out," Qian Chengshu nodded in satisfaction, and then reminded, "Keep some distance from Qian Yirong from now on. I don't think Mu Zexuan likes her very much, so don't let her get you into trouble."
Xu Baiqing clenched his hands suddenly. It was fine if Qian Chengshu was talking about Mu Zexuan, but it was not okay when it came to Qian Yirong. It seemed that if he didn't find a way, the Qian family would be eager to force her to be with Mu Zexuan.
That wouldn't work. Although she was in the period of accumulating strength, it didn't mean that she had to be manipulated like a puppet. If she could find something for Mu Zexuan to do so that he wouldn't bother her, she could naturally find something for the Qian family to do so that the Qian family's attention would be diverted from her.
Seeing that Xu Baiqing didn't say anything, Qian Chengshu told her earnestly that Qian Yirong had no blood relationship with her, and they would no longer be from the same class. While Xu Baiqing hadn't invested too much emotion in her now, it would be better for her to distance herself from Qian Yirong as soon as possible... He said a lot of things.
