Talking about this reminded her of Lu Yichen uncontrollably. Should she look for him again the next day?
If she did not constantly appear before such a popular guy and solidify her presence, he could very well forget her existence.
Yin Shaojie noticed her spacing out. Suspecting that she was daydreaming about her Mr. Gorgeous, he couldnât help but feel a little jealous.
âTell me who the gorgeous hunk is then. I donât believe that thereâs anyone whoâs better looking than me in school.â Also, it was only her first day today, so who could she have met anyway!
Mu Xiaoxiao, laughing with an evil glint in her eye, said, âIâm so not telling you! I know for a fact that youâre not the only handsome guy in school.â
This information was what Yu Zhe had shared with her. It looked like befriending more people was a good thing.
âAlright then, thereâs nothing to watch on television. Iâm going to bed now, ciao!â Finishing her drink, Mu Xiaoxiao threw it in the bin. She dusted her shorts and stood up.
âWait!â Yin Shaojie grabbed onto her suddenly.
Unbalanced, Mu Xiaoxiaoâs wobbled. She fell onto the sofa and right into his lap.
âWhat are you doing?â She looked at him in confusion.
Yin Shaojie narrowed his eyes. Gazing at her with a dangerous look, he asked, âGoing by your smiles of longing, do you like him? Mu Xiaoxiao, donât forget that youâre my wife now. Are you planning to cheat on me?â
Mu Xiaoxiao couldnât help but smile. âCheat on you? Oh please, my dear husband, donât you seem to have your fair share of girlfriends as well? What right do you have to reproach me for cheating?â she retorted as she jabbed her finger into his chest.
Aiyoh, it was kind of hard. Was his chest that muscular? It certainly didnât look like he had muscles there!
Mu Xiaoxiaoâs curiosity was aroused. She stared at his collar, trying to peer into his shirt to see if this guy really had chest muscles.
However, her view was blocked by his shirt. What a pity.
âWhat are you staring at?â Yin Shaojie noticed her gaze, and he couldnât help but smirk.
âItâs nothing! Anyway, I wonât hinder you from picking up girls, so donât restrict me from dating my hunk!â Mu Xiaoxiao moved her gaze away and coughed embarrassedly. Why did she try to check him out? Was there something wrong with her brain?
âReally?â Yin Shaojie focused his gaze on her. He had been worried that she would interfere with his love life like today. His girlfriend had been made jealous by Mu Xiaoxiao, and he had to spend a while consoling her.
However, explaining things to others was his pet peeve, so he did not bother doing so to his girlfriend. If she was bothered by that, he would rather just break up with her.
Mu Xiaoxiao held up her pinky. âLetâs make a pinky promise.â
Even though Yin Shaojie thought that this was very childish, he still did it. It was just like when they were children; a pinky-hook, followed by pressing their thumbs together.
At that moment, he felt as if he had returned to his childhood, where both of them hung out together frequently and were exceptionally close.
There was this period when they were little that Mu Xiaoxiao had lived in the Yin residence. She had liked to follow him around to play, and since it had been during the holidays, he had always been free. He played with her often, and they had been inseparable.
The Yins and the Mus were not only long-time friends where the elders had forged close friendships, but their children were also on good terms.
They were each otherâs only friends when they were little.
Yin Shaojie seemed to remember something suddenly and clapped his palms together in realization. âOh yeah! When you were about three or four, I think I heard my parents mentioning that we were betrothed to each other when we were still in our mothersâ wombs.â
