Mu Xiaoxiao smiled, got up, and walked out of the classroom.
When she went down to the first floor, her little face drooped as she pretended to be sleepy.
“Yin Shaojie, I’m so sleepy…” She sounded like a child complaining to its parent as she walked up to Yin Shaojie languidly.
Yin Shaojie looked at her, smiled, and asked, “What do you want then?”
Mu Xiaoxiao stretched out her hands. “I don’t want to walk. Carry me.”
Yin Shaojie tutted. Looking resigned, he turned and squatted down.
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and leaned against his back.
“Let’s go. I’m hungry. I wanna eat,” she said.
Yin Shaojie walked forward, carrying her on his back.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked back unwittingly and didn’t expect to see Jun Zeye there.
He had also come downstairs and he was watching them.
Then he left in the other direction.
Mu Xiaoxiao thought it was odd. It was almost as if Jun Zeye were watching over her.
Yin Shaojie carried her to the parking lot before letting her down.
“Eh? Where are Qiqing and the others? Qiqing said that she wanted to eat Kaiseki.” Mu Xiaoxiao asked quizzically when she didn’t see the others around.
“We’re not going to eat anymore. Let’s go home to eat,” said Yin Shaojie as he opened the car door.
Mu Xiaoxiao got in the car and heard his cell phone ring.
Yin Shaojie looked serious as he picked up the call.
“I don’t care what method you use, find him! I don’t care who he pays, I’ll pay double the price. No one is to take his job!”
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at him.
Yin Shaojie kept the conversation short and hung up the phone. He probably noticed her staring at him.
Mu Xiaoxiao asked, “Is there something wrong?”
Yin Shaojie thought for a moment. He told her about KO looking for her.
“He… What does he want?” Mu Xiaoxiao was puzzled.
KO knew who she was and wanted to capture her. She didn’t think that he would still want to find her even while on the run.
Yin Shaojie took her little hand and stroked it to placate her. “Don’t worry, I won’t let him do anything to you.”
No matter what KO’s objective was, Yin Shaojie would not let him come close to her.
Mu Xiaoxiao’s eyes suddenly widened as she thought of Jun Zeye’s strange behavior this afternoon and she came to a realization.
Could it be that…
Jun Zeye had already found out about KO paying people to find her?
He kept appearing around her in the afternoon. When she went to the toilet, he waited outside. When he noticed that she was missing, he went looking for her. He asked her to be the referee so that he could keep her within sight. He stayed back after school until she met up with Yin Shaojie before he finally left.
Was he really trying to protect her? Or was it all a coincidence?
But what Mu Xiaoxiao couldn’t understand was why he treated her so well?
He had clearly been quite aloof toward her.
“Xiaoxiao?” Yin Shaojie’s voice rang beside her ear and his handsome face leaned up close to hers.
Returning from her thoughts, Mu Xiaoxiao gave a stupid expression. “Ah?”
She seemed a little flustered as she tried to hide her thoughts of Jun Zeye from him.
“Start the car. Let’s go home. I’m so hungry. I want to eat something soon.” She smiled at him.
Yin Shaojie kissed her hand. Then he said in his magnetic voice, “In any case, you must stay close to me for now. Be good and don’t wander about, got it?”
