Chapter 279 - 279: From Their Backviews, They Were a Perfect Match

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The two of them exchanged a few casual words before Mu Chengxi held Wen Xin’s hand and left together.

As she watched the two of them leave, Lisa couldn’t help but tsk. The two of them were a perfect match!

Mu Chengxi turned his head and looked at Wen Xin’s strapless red dress. He had known Wen Xin for so long, but this was the first time he had seen her wearing such a dress.

Her exquisite collarbone, slender neck, and blue veins were clearly visible under the contrast of the red dress.

Looking down, his dark eyes narrowed, and a dangerous glint flashed across his eyes.

Wen Xin quickly changed her clothes and came out of the changing room. She was wearing a black hoodie and a pair of slim-fit jeans. It gave off a completely different feeling compared to the red dress she had just worn.

At that moment, she restrained her coquettish air and replaced it with a cold, cool aura.

Mu Chengxi opened the door on the passenger side. Wen Xin bent down and sat down. She found a comfortable position and lazily nestled in the seat. She opened the game gift package that Yuan Junye sent her.

“I’ll take you to eat first. What do you want to eat?” Mu Chengxi got into the car and started the engine slowly.

“Anything is fine. I’m fine with anything.”

Wen Xin frowned slightly at the top-grade gift in the game interface. Such good equipment had affected her gaming experience.

“I’ll bring you to buy some desserts and snacks first. There aren’t many snacks at home. Mu Bei said that there’s a pretty good dessert shop nearby.”

“Alright.”

Wen Xin’s gaze was fixed on the game, and did not even look at Mu Chengxi. Mu Chengxi was a little jealous but did not stop Wen Xin. He stepped on the accelerator and drove off.

Mu Chengxi’s car stopped outside the dessert shop. Wen Xin looked sideways at the dessert shop outside the car window and raised her eyebrows slightly. Why didn’t she know there was a dessert shop in this place? It seemed like she was out too little.

This dessert shop was in a prime location in the city center. It was in a great location, and the decoration was very avant-garde. Many young people were queuing in front of the door.

Wen Xin turned to look at Mu Chengxi.” There are so many people. Are you sure you want to line up?”

“There’s no need to line up. Mu Bei has already called to order it. The manager will send it over when he’s ready.”

Mu Chengxi had no intention of getting out of the car. He propped his chin with his large, fair hand and narrowed his eyes at Wen Xin.

“Your homeroom teacher just called me. He mentioned that you’ve been spending very little time at school lately. Also, he inquired about your thoughts on self-enrollment. If you’re interested, the registration has already started. Are you planning to take the college entrance examination or participate in self-enrollment?”

“I think I’ll go for self-enrollment. It’s not suitable for me to be so irregular at school. I plan to participate in the self-enrollment in December. After I finish the piano competition, I’ll go back and register.”

Wen Xin saw that Tan Xingyue was adapting well in school and that Wen Huai was equally doing well. She really did not have much time to waste in school. She still had many things to do.

“Yes, the principal of Beijing University asked me to tell you that even if you don’t like the medical department, you can go to other departments. Beijing

University’s enrollment quota is all up to you!”

Mu Chengxi raised his eyebrows at Wen Xin’s nonchalant and bright black eyes. The corners of his lips curled up into a smile, looking a little playful.

“Tell the principal of Beijing University not to expect too much. Hua University has been calling me recently. You know, many people in the research institute are professors at Hua University.”

Wen Xin’s fingers danced on the game. Her entire attention was on the game. She spoke casually and perfunctorily to Mu Chengxi.

Mu Chengxi’s phone rang for a moment. He picked up the car phone and did not guard against Wen Xin at all.

“Master Xi, we’ve settled the matters in Continent F, and Felipe’s family has been cleaned up…That… When can I return to Beijing? There are still many things to do at the research institute. I know I was wrong. I definitely won’t tell anyone about your whereabouts next time!”

Gu Yanzhe’s voice came from the car speaker. Wen Xin slowed down the game in her hands and looked at Mu Chengxi. She felt that Mu Chengxi was giving her another explanation.

At this moment, someone knocked lightly on the car window twice. Wen Xin rolled down the car window and took the desserts and a membership card that the store manager had personally delivered.

“Hello, Miss Wen. This is the membership card and top-up card that Mr. Mu applied for. If you need anything next time, just give us a call. We can deliver it to your home.”

The store manager was a woman in her thirties or forties. She exuded a gentle aura that made Wen Xin feel very comfortable looking at her.

Wen Xin took the desserts and membership card from the store manager and thanked her politely.

“Come back if you want to…” Mu Chengxi’s tone was cold, and no emotions could be heard. He hung up the phone right after he was done flirting.

Wen Xin took the bag of desserts and casually looked through it. She found a portion of matcha mousse and casually placed the desserts and snacks in the backseat of the car.

Wen Xin took a spoonful and offered it to Mu Chengxi’s lips.

Mu Chengxi was a little surprised by Wen Xin’s actions. He opened his mouth and ate. He raised his eyebrows and asked, “Why are you so proactive today? Is there something you need?”

“It’s boring. I just wanted to share it with you. Let’s go eat hotpot. I want to eat spicy hotpot. It’s more exciting!”

Wen Xin casually scooped a spoonful of dessert and ate it. She was in a good mood as she spoke.

Mu Chengxi could clearly feel the changes in Wen Xin’s daily life. It seemed that Gu Yanzhe’s phone call had pleased Wen Xin. Seeing how happy Wen Xin was, Mu Chengxi also felt good.

“Then let’s go eat hotpot.” Mu Chengxi started the car and brought Wen Xin to a famous Sichuan hotpot restaurant.

There was a row of small stools outside the hotpot restaurant. Wen Xin casually found a seat and sat down. Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin’s casual movements and sat beside her.

“If I knew, I would have taken you somewhere else.”

“What’s wrong? Isn’t it worth waiting for a place that needs a seat?” Wen Xin glanced at the man dressed in noble clothes. It seemed that he was out of place in this place.

“That’s not what I meant. I’m just afraid that you’ll be hungry if you wait too long.”

Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin dotingly. It was indeed his first time coming to a place like this, but as long as Wen Xin liked it, he was willing to try anything with her.

Wen Xin stretched lazily as she looked at the long queue. No one knew what she was thinking about, but the corners of her mouth curled into a smile.

“What are you thinking about?” Mu Chengxi held Wen Xin’s hand and pulled her into his embrace. He was worried that Wen Xin was wearing too little and would catch a cold sitting there. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“I was wondering if the people in Beijing would be shocked if they saw Master

Xi sitting here and queuing up to eat hotpot with me..”
