Lu Xue was tidying up her things in her bedroom. Then she went downstairs to the kitchen to pour herself a cup of hot milk.
When she came back upstairs with the hot milk in hand, she bumped into Mu Yuze in the corridor.
Mu Yuze had just come out of his bedroom. He had already changed into a white home shirt, exuding an air of leisure and laziness.
Seeing Lu Xue, there was no expression on his face, but he stretched out his hand to block her way.
Lu Xue looked up and steadied the hot milk in her cup. "What's up? Mr. Mu Yuze, do you need something?"
Mu Yuze stared at Lu Xue's face, hesitating to speak. On his way here, he had already made up his mind that it would do him no good to drag this on any longer.
Actually, he should have moved on to the next stage a long time ago. At least, he should talk to Lu Xue face - to - face and clarify things.
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
Lu Xue was taken aback. She almost dropped the cup in her hand. She looked up, a bit confused.
"Where did you hear that I have a boyfriend? Could it be that Mu Ziyue has been spreading rumors everywhere?"
Lu Xue recalled carefully. Mu Ziyue did say that she would introduce a boyfriend to her.
She also said that the boyfriend was tall and handsome, the president of a company, and gentle - natured, so he would surely get along well with Lu Xue.
Lu Xue hadn't met the guy Mu Ziyue wanted to introduce to her yet. But at this moment, she couldn't help but think of it.
Seeing Lu Xue's reaction, Mu Yuze couldn't help but recall the scene when Yan Hua told him this news.
Yan Hua shouldn't be lying. He got the news from Han Xiaolv, and Han Xiaolv was Lu Xue's good friend. She should know everything about Lu Xue. So where did the problem lie?
Judging from Lu Xue's current reaction, was the news Yan Hua got not true?
For some reason, Mu Yuze felt a sigh of relief at this moment.
He slightly suppressed his excited thoughts, and then asked expressionlessly, "I saw you leaving the airport with a guy at the airport before."
As he said this, he carefully observed Lu Xue's expression.
Lu Xue didn't guard against him. She just concentrated on recalling that day at the airport, and then suddenly realized.
"Oh! You mean Ji Jingcheng. He just returned to China that day, so I took Han Xiaolv to pick him up. But he's not my boyfriend. You must have misunderstood."
Mu Yuze didn't say a word for a long time. Seeing him being so silent and his expression frozen, Lu Xue asked worriedly, "What's wrong? You seem to be in a bad state. Did you not sleep well in the next - door room last night and get tired?"
Mu Yuze came back to his senses, put his hands back in his pockets, and said lightly, "It's okay. That's it for today."
After saying that, he brushed past Lu Xue's shoulder and walked on, looking back at her from time to time.
Lu Xue felt a bit strange and then went back to her bedroom with her hot milk.
After Lu Xue closed the door, she didn't know how long Mu Yuze had stood outside the corridor, nor did she know that Mu Yuze's heart was as excited as if there were a flock of little sparrows flying around.
Just now, he tried his best to suppress the expression on his face and didn't show any signs, but he couldn't hold back his ecstasy.
When Aunt Chen was cleaning downstairs, she looked up and saw her young master pacing back and forth on the second - floor corridor.
He walked from left to right and then from right to left. She didn't know what he was doing.
But there was still a calm expression on the young master's face. So was the young master suffering from ADHD recently?
Lu Xue had returned to her room. After drinking most of the cup of milk, there was a knock on the bedroom door.
She opened the door and found Mu Yuze standing outside. Mu Yuze seemed a bit abnormal today. When they bumped into each other in the corridor just now, he said it was nothing and passed by her calmly.
But just five minutes later, he appeared at her room door again.
When a person keeps showing up in front of you again and again, there must be some strange reasons.
Lu Xue just asked directly, "Mu Yuze, what's wrong with you today? I feel that you seem a bit strange."
Mu Yuze was silent for a while and then said, "Can I come in?"
Lu Xue stepped aside and invited Mu Yuze into the room. The two of them sat down in the bedroom, facing each other, but didn't speak for a long time.
Lu Xue couldn't hold back anymore. Just as she was about to say something, Mu Yuze spoke first.
"I want to confirm something with you."
Lu Xue nodded. "Go ahead."
Mu Yuze didn't look at Lu Xue. Instead, he looked at the heavy night outside the window and said slowly, "I want to know about your current emotional situation."
Lu Xue didn't react at first. Mu Yuze glanced at her, then shifted his gaze back to the window and said lightly, "I mean, I want to know if you have a boyfriend or someone you like?"
