Lu Xue thought seriously for a while, then shook her head. She said to Mu Ziyue sincerely, "Could you please not let me do such stupid things in the future? It makes me look like I'm currying favor for no reason."
Mu Ziyue looked up and saw that the shower outside had indeed stopped. It had really only lasted for less than ten minutes.
Now, even the sun had come out. The sun was shining brightly, and there was even a rainbow in the grass.
In such a bright and sunny day, Lu Xue, who had been in such a mess just ten minutes ago, looked extremely stupid and a bit self - indulgent.
"What a lousy rainy day! Can't you last a bit longer!" Mu Ziyue cursed under her breath, then turned around and went back to her room.
After that, Mu Ziyue secretly helped the two of them get closer on many occasions. She organized quite a few dinners and invited both of them.
But every time, only Lu Xue showed up. Mu Yuze never made an appearance.
On the one hand, maybe he didn't like to attend dinners with so many people. On the other hand, perhaps he didn't want to have too much interaction with Lu Xue.
Mu Ziyue was really curious. She privately asked Lu Xue, "What on earth did you do to offend my brother? Why doesn't he even bother to talk to you now? He's even harsher on you than when I failed my exams. Even if the work pressure is really high, there's no reason for him to single you out like this!"
Lu Xue thought seriously for a while but couldn't figure it out. She also didn't know why Mu Yuze's attitude towards her had changed so much overnight.
However... living under the same roof, Mu Yuze could get along peacefully with others but avoided her. This feeling of being cold - shouldered was really uncomfortable.
One day, Mu Ziyue organized another gathering and specifically wanted to invite Mu Yuze.
She called Mu Yuze and said, "Brother, this is a celebration party held by my friends for my successful graduation. You must come!"
Mu Yuze gave a cold glance at his phone and calmly replied, "There's nothing to celebrate about graduating successfully."
After saying that, Mu Yuze threw his phone aside and continued to lower his head to deal with his work.
Mu Ziyue was extremely aggrieved after getting such a cold response.
Of course, this was something worth celebrating. She had failed so many courses and finally managed to make up for them with great effort. Why didn't her brother show any reaction at all?
Mu Ziyue was so angry that she turned to send a message to Lu Xue.
"Lu Xue, I have a party tonight. Are you coming? They're all my classmates. We're all friends, and you'll get along well with them quickly."
Lu Xue had been staying in the studio all day. She was so focused that she forgot to eat. When she came to her senses, it was already evening outside.
The message Mu Ziyue had just sent was flashing on her phone. Lu Xue was hesitating whether to go or not when Mu Ziyue added another message.
"We have a lot of delicious food here, and there's also self - service dessert. Hurry up and come. It'll be a waste if you don't finish it!"
Just imagining the self - service dessert made Lu Xue a little tempted. Since she hadn't had dinner yet, she might as well go to Mu Ziyue's party and grab a bite.
She stood up, put on her coat, and went out. When she stood up, she felt a bit dizzy. She leaned against the wall for a while before she could recover.
Half an hour later, she took a taxi to Mu Ziyue's party.
As soon as she entered the villa, a group of young boys and girls were already celebrating. They had ordered a huge four - layer cake and were deciding who would cut it first.
As soon as Mu Ziyue saw Lu Xue appear, she immediately pulled Lu Xue in and introduced her actively.
"This is my good friend Lu Xue. From now on, we're all friends. Let's have fun together!"
For some reason, the people who were cutting the cake passed the knife to Lu Xue's hand. Everyone cheered and asked Lu Xue to cut the cake.
Lu Xue didn't decline. She simply stepped forward and cut the cake.
While cutting the cake, Lu Xue felt her stomach growling. She had been hungry on the way and had been looking forward to having some delicious food here.
She swallowed hard and couldn't wait any longer.
After the cake was divided, the young boys and girls gathered together to play board games, while Lu Xue stood aside and ate the cake in her hand intently.
The first and second layers were fruit - flavored, and the girls ate more of them.
The third layer was chocolate - flavored. Maybe because it was too high in calories, it wasn't very popular and was left on the table.
Lu Xue simply ate the whole third layer of the cake and then went to the side to get some self - service snacks.
Mu Ziyue had just finished chatting with her friends and walked to Lu Xue's side. She was shocked.
"Lu Xue, did you eat all this cake by yourself?" Mu Ziyue couldn't believe it.
The amount of this whole layer of cake was astonishing. Even if several boys ate together, they couldn't finish it, but Lu Xue managed to eat it all by herself.
Mu Ziyue looked at her worriedly and asked, "Are you really okay eating so much chocolate?"
Lu Xue thought Mu Ziyue was worried that she would gain weight, so she waved her hand and said, "It's okay. I don't mind that!"
After eating, she happily stroked her stomach, feeling that it was really worth coming this time.
