Chapter 417: Chapter 417 - We Are Not Boyfriend And Girlfriend

Xu Youning didn’t notice the anger of Mu Sijue. She put the bottle back and was about to go to the bathroom, but then, Mu Sijue grabbed her wrist.

His handsome face looked gloomy, staring at her with confusing emotions. Xu Youning knew that she couldn’t get away from him, so she smiled and played dumb, “Seventh Brother, am I good or what?” Mu Sijue had so many women and she guessed that there weren’t many women as sensible as she was to take the initiatives to take pills.

This was the first time Mu Sijue found Xu Youning’s smile so freaking annoying. He really wanted to break her smile with a few punches.

But he never hurt women, just like he never asked women to take pills. But then again, Xu Youning was the first person that he completely forgot about wearing protection when having sex with.

He pulled Xu Youning into his arms, “How long does the pill last?”

Xu Youning couldn’t figure out why Mu Sijue was concerned with this matter. She said uncertainly, “Twenty-four hours?”

Mu Sijue smirked, and stared at Xu Youning unknowingly, “That means, we can continue, right?”

Something slipped off from Xu Youning’s shoulder, then she felt a coolness from the shoulder. This was when Xu Youning realized what Mu Sijue had meant. She whispered and refused, “Mu Sijue, it hurts.”

Xu Youning didn’t hold any hopes. People who were as selfish as Mu Sijue wouldn’t care if she was hurt or not. It was inevitable that she was going to have another round of crazy sex.

Unexpectedly, Mu Sijue released her, “The spare towel and toothbrush are in the cabinet. Take it yourself.”

He then turned and walked into the cloakroom.

Xu Youning felt relieved. She took a deep breath and went into the bathroom quickly.

When Mu Sijue came out of the cloakroom, he had already bee decently dressed. He dialed a number and left his commands. At last, he added, “Let Ah Guang bring it over.”

Ah Guang had always been amazingly efficient. Within twenty minutes, he rang the doorbell of Mu Sijue’s apartment, along with a delicate bag and two breakfasts.

Mu Sijue opened the door and took the things, “Go stand by in the car. I will come down soon.”

Ah Guang answered ‘Alright’ and peeked in the apartment. He wanted to know what kind of woman was there in the house who could make Mu Sijue buy her new clothes and prepare her breakfast.

Unfortunately, he didn’t see anything. Ah Guang had no choice but left with disappointment and waited in the car.

Mu Sijue put down the breakfast on the table in the dining room and took the clothes back to the room. At the same time, Xu Youning came out, wearing his bathrobe.

His bathrobe was originally designed to be loose. When it was worn on Xu Youning, it looked like a ‘bath dress’. Xu Youning had wrapped it around her twice, probably because she wanted to avoid a nip slip. But the tightness of the robe had outlined her perfectly slim waist.

The robe, as black as ink, was like a flower darkly covering Xu Youning, making her skin look even fairer. She did not need to do anything. By just blankly standing there, she could easily set something on fire.

Mu Sijue tossed the bag to Xu Youning and concealed the affection that had flashed across his eyes. He ordered coldly, “Get changed.”

Xu Youning answered ‘Okay’ and poured the things out of the bag. In the bag was everything she needed, from underwear to clothes. She tried it on and the size matched perfectly.

“...” It’s self-explanatory that how ‘experienced’ Mu Sijue was.

Xu Youning got changed and dried her hair before leaving the room while Mu Sijue was having breakfast slowly. He saw that she came out and pointed to another breakfast, “ten minutes.”

He wanted her to finish this big bowl of porridge within ten minutes?

Xu Youning complained in her heart that Mu Sijue was cold-blooded as she was having porridge sip after sip. Ten minutes later, there was only one third of the porridge left, but Mu Sijue had already gotten up and put on his coat. She could only wipe her mouth and follow him out.

Downstairs, Ah Guang was sitting in the car, constantly looking at the door of the apartment. Finally, he saw Mu Sijue coming out and lowered the window. He was shocked.

Xu Youning?

It was Xu Youning who spent the night with Mu Sijue?

Ah Guang’s heart was sinking as if it had been hit very hard, also his mind went blank.

Yesterday he clearly saw Xu Youning was having dinner with a strange man. How did she end up with Mu Sijue? What happened between them after Mu Sijue had driven off?

While he was still overwhelmed Mu Sijue and Xu Youning got in the car.

Xu Youning didn’t expect to see Ah Guang. She was a little bit embarrassed at first. But to think of it, things between her and Mu Sijue eventually would be revealed to Ah Guang. Maybe this was the best way to let him know as she didn’t have to tell him herself.

“Seventh Brother, Sister Youning, where are we going.” Although Ah Guang tried his best to hide his feelings, his voice revealed his shock.

Mu Sijue said, “The office.”

The apartment was not far from MJ Technology. Plus, it was not the peak hour of commute. So they arrived in less than ten minutes and dropped Mu Sijue off. Soon, there were only Ah Guang and Xu Youning.

Ah Guang bit back several times his questions. Finally, Xu Youning started it, “What do you want to ask? Bring it in.”

“Sister Youning, you and Seventh Brother...” Ah Guang asked incredulously, “Are you two really a thing?”

Xu Youning laughed, “Ah Guang, Since when have you seen Seventh Brother with any woman before?”

Ah Guang shook his head, becoming more dazed, “What do you mean? You...”

“We are not boyfriends and girlfriends.” Xu Youning shrugged, pretending to smile calmly, “To be accurate, we are not a thing.”

They were just maintaining a certain intimacy where they had no ground to restrain each other.

“Sister Youning, you like Seventh Brother, right? Wouldn’t you be sad when Seventh Brother treated you like that?” Ah Guang asked suddenly.

Xu Youning groaned for a long time and shook her head.

Who was she to be sad? Mu Sijue and she, they shouldn’t have feelings for each other anyway.

It was nearly five after running some errands. Xu Youning asked Ah Guang to take her home.

Granny Xu had been looking forward to Xu Youning’s arrival. She led her to the couch, “Xiao Han called his uncle. He said he felt good about you and wanted to know you more. What about you? What do you think of him?”

Xu Youning thought about it, and nodded, “I think he’s great. Granny, I will keep in contact with him. But it is not up to me whether we could be together or not. It depends. You can’t make me.”

Granny Xu was already thrilled. She patted Xu Youning’s hand, feeling relieved. “Of course. Granny would never force you on this matter. It’s the most important that how you feel. By the way, have you had dinner yet?”

“Nah.” After explaining to granny, Xu Youning felt relieved. She held her grandmother’s arm and said sweetly, “I miss the braised pork belly you made.”

As soon as she said, Mu Sijue called and asked her where a paper was. She checked her purse, “I brought it home.”

“Stay home.” Mu Sijue said, “I will come and get it.”

The phone had been hung up before Xu Youning answered. She stared at the phone and was confused. That paper wasn’t any important document. It was completely unnecessary for Mu Sijue to come and get it.

“He’s too bored, isn’t he?”

“What’s wrong?” Granny Xu spotted confusion on Xu Youning’s face and asked, “who called?”

“My boss. He is coming to get some documents.” Xu Youning put away her phone. “Ignore him, granny, I will ask Aunt Sun to prepare and you can help me with the braised pork belly.”

“That’s your boss. How can we ignore him?” Granny Xu smiled. “Since he’s coming at dinner time. I’ll make two more dishes and have him stay for dinner.”

Xu Youning was going to say no. Mu Sijue was so freakishly picky, especially on food. It was unlikely that he would stay and her granny would be busier for nothing.

But before she said no, granny had already gotten into the kitchen with Aunt Sun.

It was getting dark. The doorbell rang. Xu Youning answered the door with the paper. Expectedly, it was Mu Sijue. She gave the paper to him, “I’ve checked. The paper’s okay. You can just sign it.” She said and was about to close the door.

Mu Sijue blocked the door quickly, and gazed at Xu Youning sharply, “Are you afraid of people finding out about me?”

Xu Youning was afraid of him being found out by her granny so she wanted him to leave. But she could never admit it!

She looked sternly at Mu Sijue, “Seventh Brother, do you think you are the person I am trying to hide?”

Mu Sijue smirked and opened the door lightly while Granny Xu came out from the kitchen and saw Mu Sijue.

Mu Sijue had come once, so Granny Xu was able to recognize him at once. “Mr. Mu, come. Dinner is ready. If you aren’t busy to be somewhere else, I can ask auntie to prepare one more tableware and you can have dinner with us.”

“Granny, he...” Xu Youning was about to say that Mu Sijue was very busy, but Mu Sijue beat her, “Thank you, Granny. I am pleased to stay.”

“You’re welcome.” Granny Xu led Mu Sijue in while Aunt Sun had prepared another pair of tableware for Mu Sijue and filled Mu Sijue’s bowl with soup.

Just like last time, there were many things that Mu Sijue did not eat. But Mu Sijue didn’t even frown. He ate everything that Granny Xu asked him to try, just like any humble and polite young man. It was completely different from the usual him, the cold, comber and murderous Mu Sijue.

“Mr. Mu, try this too.” Granny Xu pointed to her proud work – cold kelp. “This is one of my best work. It’s definitely better than any other cold kelp you can ever have outside.”

Xu Youning was falling apart. Mu Sijue never ate kelp and tomatoes. She also happened to hate kelp. If Mu Sijue could eat it, she would admire him so much!

It was difficult to refuse such kindness from an old lady. But Mu Sijue would never eat kelp. He looked at Xu Youning and called her name, “Youning?”

“Yeah?” Xu Youning smiled pretentiously, but warned Mu Sijue not to play tricks with her eyes.

Mu Sijue put some cold seaweed in her bowl. “It’s your favorite, isn’t it? Eat more.”

Xu Youning was stunned for a short while. She stared at him and Mu Sijue smiled at her suddenly. Undeniably, the way that Mu Sijue smiled was charming, but she also saw the warning from his eyes. She had no choice but smiled, “Thank you, Seventh Brother.”

Although Granny Xu was getting old and was farsighted, she could still see the little tricks that Xu Youning and Mu Sijue were playing. She knew exactly that they were restricting each other.

Granny Xu looked down and smiled. She didn’t say anything and kept drinking soup as if nothing had happened.
