It was just that there were many people in the country who shared the same name.
Hence, the two of them somehow did not recognize each other.
However, the inexplicable sense of familiarity between the two was palpable.
It was only because they had fought many times that neither paid attention to this feeling of familiarity.
After returning from the man-made lake, Mu Huan packed her things and headed home.
âHavenât you still not gotten through to God Bo? Why donât you sleep in the dormitory tonight?â Li Meng was afraid that she would overthink when she got back, making her unable to fall asleep again.
Mu Huan looked at her bed and couldnât help sighing. âI can be so fickle sometimes. Back when I couldnât sleep in the dormitory, I wanted to do so very badly. But now that I can do it, I just want to go home.â
It was just like how she used to hope that Bo Junyan wouldnât return home at night and how she used to think that it would be best if he didnât contact her for half a month. Now, he had been away for only one night and had not contacted her for a day and a night, yet she already felt so upset!
Sigh. It would be great if, for only this time, things could go back to how it was in the past. When one had no one to love, one was the most carefree.
Not knowing how to comfort her, Li Meng could only say, âXiao Huan, donât think too much.â
âIâm not thinking too much. Donât you think Iâm already very rational and clear-minded?â
Li Meng thought about it and agreed. She would probably cry if something like this happened to her. Not only did Xiao Huan not cry, but she also managed to understand clearly that this was a scheme. She did not suspect anything and did not misunderstand Bo Junyan.
âItâs just that I canât control myself and feel a little upset. When a person is in a bad mood, itâs easy for them to lament about some things. Thatâs why, in this world, the word âloveâ is the most torturous. It makes one less like oneself. The heartless are the most powerful, and as the saying goes, if Heaven were sentimental, Heaven would also feel sad and old.â Once a person develops feelings for someone, they can no longer be controlled by rationality. Her present situation was the perfect example. Despite knowing that this was all part of someoneâs scheme, that someone had gone through such lengths to make Mu Huan feel uncomfortable and to cause a rift between her and Bo Junyan, and that she shouldnât and wouldnât fall for it, she was still only human. Even though humans know that they shouldnât feel upset over some things, they would still be.
He went to see fireworks despite the meticulous preparations she had made at home, then he not only did not return but also did not even call back. She really could not fathom what kind of situation heâd have to be in to not call her, under conditions where he wasnât in danger!
Especially when Gong Zeye knew about it.
Why couldnât he reveal to her something that Gong Zeye knew about so that she wouldnât let her imagination run wild?
Seeing her like this, Li Meng could not help but hug her, wanting to give comfort. âXiao Huan...â
âIâm fine. Iâm just sighing a little. If I didnât sigh at all and didnât feel uncomfortable, even a little, thatâs as much as saying Iâm only pretending to like Bo Junyan,â Mu Huan said with a smile.
âDo you really not want to stay in the dormitory?â
âIâd rather not. Itâs easy to go from frugal to extravagant. Itâs hard to go from extravagant to frugal. Iâm used to having my big bed and eating my delicacies. I canât sleep well on this hard bed, and I canât eat breakfast here either,â Mu Huan said with a smile.
Li Meng knew that she was looking for an excuse. She knew that Mu Huan wanted to go home because she still wanted to wait for Bao Junyan to return tonight.
âThen you donât have to study tonight. Go to sleep. When you canât sleep, play games and relax. If you want to play games, you can contact me at any time. Iâm always here.â
