2529 Shouldn’t you reward me (1)
Upon hearing this, mu Xiaoxiao was speechless.
Lu Yichen seemed to have realized what was going on, and his expression was a little awkward. His hand paused, and he stepped back, handing the paper to mu Xiaoxiao like a gentleman.
uh, that, you can wipe it yourself. There’s still some on your chin.
He gestured with his finger, but he did not touch her at all.
The air seemed to have frozen for a moment.
Mu Xiaoxiao glanced at Yin Shaojie, as if she could smell the sour smell in the air.
Only Gu Pingyuan smiled and said, ” actually, if you look at it this way, Yichen and Xiaoxiao are quite a good match. If there’s a chance …
Yin Shaojie couldn’t care less about the elders and looked over coldly.
uncle Gu, Xiaoxiao is already engaged to me. Don’t you think that’s a little inappropriate? ”
Gu Pingyuan laughed. haha, I was just joking. Shaojie, did you take it seriously? ” Don’t be angry, what’s yours is yours, no one can take it away from you.”
The other meaning of the last sentence was probably: If you can take it away, it means it doesn’t belong to you.
How could Yin Shaojie not understand the meaning behind his words?
He smirked and said, ” why would I take it seriously? Xiaoxiao only has me in her heart. It was in the past, it is now, and it will be in the future. Her heart can’t hold anyone else. Xiaoxiao, don’t you think so? ”
His deep, dark eyes turned to mu Xiaoxiao.
Mu Xiaoxiao reacted quickly this time and nodded her head. yes, yes, of course!
Yin Shaojie smiled in satisfaction, but his smile still looked very fake.
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled bitterly.
She didn’t do it on purpose, so could he not be so jealous?
When this fellow invited her to the Gu family’s house for a meal, she thought that he had changed. Who knew that he did not change at all? instead, he seemed to be getting more and more jealous.
After the meal, mu Xiaoxiao couldn’t even remember how it tasted.
She had worked so hard until the meal was over, and all she wanted to do was leave.
She was thinking of an excuse when Gu Pingyuan called her to the living room.
The servant cut the fruits and placed them in front of everyone.
Gu Pingyuan greeted her warmly, ” Xiaoxiao, have some fruit. Strawberries are your favorite, right? ” These strawberries are all freshly picked, try them.”
“Thank you, uncle Gu.” Mu Xiaoxiao replied politely. She looked at the strawberries on the plate. They were of the same size, bright in color, and fresh. They looked delicious.
But she still didn’t have much of an appetite.
She wondered if she should pretend to be unwell and then leave.
No, no.
If she said that she was not feeling well, the Gu family also had a family doctor. Gu Pingyuan would probably call the doctor over to take a look at her. Then, wouldn’t her pretending to be sick be exposed on the spot?
Otherwise … Should he just say that he had something to do?
He had just finished his meal, and now he had to leave. It didn’t seem very polite to the host.
Mu Xiaoxiao was worried to death!
This wouldn’t work, that wouldn’t work either, so what kind of reasonable excuse should he find?
She was usually a little smart, but at this moment, she felt that she didn’t have enough brain cells.
Just then, Yin Shaojie stood up and said, ” uncle Gu, I’m sorry, but Xiaoxiao and I still have something to do. We have to go home, so we can’t stay any longer. We’ll be leaving first. Next time, next time, we’ll treat you to a meal, okay? ”
As he spoke, he walked in front of mu Xiaoxiao and held her hand.
Mu Xiaoxiao had wanted to leave anyway, so of course she was happy to.
She smiled apologetically and said, ” uncle Gu, I’m sorry. We have to go.
Gu Pingyuan was very considerate. He waved his hand and said, ” it’s fine. Uncle Gu saw that you’ve been back for so long, so he wanted to meet you.
