528 i just want to be friends
Mu Xingxing was not alone. She had met her companion, Shi Yan, a few days ago.
It was the girl who was shopping with mu Xingxing.
Mu Xing didn’t seem to see them. He was wearing a straw hat and a beach dress, standing in the crowd and taking photos of each other.
It was Shi Yan who saw them first.
there was no way they couldn’t see them. the two of them weren’t far from them, and shi yan had good eyesight.
seeing that she had stopped drinking after taking a sip of the drink and seemed to be looking at something, jiang che couldn’t help but ask, ” “What’s wrong?”
He looked over.
there were too many people on the beach, and the sun was a little glaring. jiang che didn’t see jupiter at first glance.
the main thing was that mu xing’s back was facing them at this time. jiang che had not reached the point where he could recognize a strange woman he had only met twice just by looking at her back.
“Did you see someone familiar?” jing hailan asked.
“i’m not an acquaintance,” shi yan retracted her gaze.
mu xingxing, who was taking photos of her companion, turned around at this moment. jing hailan saw her, adjusted the sunglasses on her face, and took a sip of the drink in her hand. ” i was wondering who it was. it’s the new sister-in-law that my mother has chosen for me! ”
“what kind of fate is this? We’ve come all the way here for a vacation, yet we’re still able to meet each other.”
“I don’t think there are so many coincidences in the world.” Su mu said.
“jing xuan has a girlfriend, and this miss mu is the fiancée chosen by madam jing for jing xuan. but neither madam jing nor miss mu can interfere with jing xuan’s choice. Could this miss mu be here for you?”
He was looking at Jing Hailan when he said that.
Su mu didn’t think that mu Xing and Shi Yan would have any connection.
“What are you doing? do you think i can help her become the lady of family jing? Mu Xing doesn’t look like such a na?ve person.”
If mu Xingxing’s appearance here was not a coincidence, then it was more likely that mu Xingxing had come for Shi Yan than her.
There was no reason. This was her intuition.
su mu also felt that mu xing wasn’t such a na?ve person.
“Then it’s really a coincidence.”
whether it was a coincidence or not, su mu didn’t have much time to think about it, because his companions on jupiter had seen them.
he was stunned for a moment, and then he patted mu xingxing’s shoulder excitedly,”xingxing, look over there! isn’t that the person we met at the supermarket a few days ago? the couple that you know, it’s them, right?”
“it’s them,” mu xing seemed to be surprised to see them here.
“I can’t believe I met him like this. It’s really unreasonable not to say hello. Let’s go over and say hello.” Mu Xingxing pulled the girl and walked toward Shi Yan and the others.
“Shi Yan!” He shouted from afar.
as she approached, shi yan took off her sunglasses with one hand and a drink in the other. she smiled.”The stars.”
“it’s really you guys. what a coincidence to meet you here.”
“It’s a coincidence.” shi yan asked, ” do you guys want to sit? ”
mu xingxing pulled the girl over and sat down.
“Yaoyao wanted to come to southern city to play, and I had nothing to do, so I accompanied her. If I knew you were coming, I would’ve called you along so you could keep each other company.”
Oh, right. I forgot to introduce you. This is my friend, Shi Yao.
Shi Yao was slightly taken aback by the sudden nomination, but she quickly reacted and greeted, ” “H-Hello.”
“hello,” shi yan smiled and nodded at her.
shi yao was suddenly dazzled by shi yan’s smile.
When she met them at the supermarket, she already felt that this couple was very good-looking. She didn’t expect that when she looked at them up close, they would be so stunning.
On this girl named Shi Yan, her appearance was not the most prominent. What was most prominent was her calm and indifferent temperament.
H-Hello, um, Xingxing and I didn’t disturb you, did we? ”
“no, i didn’t,” Shi Yan asked them, ” do you guys want anything to drink? ”
“What do you want to drink? I’ll go buy it,” su mu said.
“no, thank you.”
after mu xingxing said his piece, shi yao hurriedly replied, ” no need. ”
She felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.
These people were clearly very kind, but she felt an inexplicable pressure sitting with her.
She tugged at mu Xingxing’s skirt.
“What’s the matter?” mu Xingxing looked at her.
she couldn’t possibly say that she felt too much pressure sitting with these people and wanted to ask mu xingxing to leave. it was rude to have such a thought. mu xingxing asked so directly, and her face instantly turned red.
” n-nothing. i’m just sweating a little, so i wanted to ask if you have any tissues. ”
“no, i’ve just finished it.”
it was just a random excuse, but shi yao was at a complete loss.
suddenly, a packet of tissues was handed to her.
“I have it here.”
it was shi yan.
“T-thank you.”
“you’re welcome,”
shi yan wasn’t someone who liked to take the initiative to start a topic. after saying these three words, she didn’t say anything else and continued to drink the drink in her hand.
she didn’t speak, so the others naturally didn’t speak either.
the silence in the room caused shi yao to feel even more pressured.
she thought that mu was the same as her, so she turned her head to look, but found that mu’s expression was normal, not affected at all.
Was she really too useless?
However, after knowing Xingxing for so long, she didn’t feel that Xingxing was a very bold person. At most, he was just a little smarter than her.
however, her family background was very ordinary and could not be compared with mu xingxing. it was definitely not comparable to the people in front of her.
could it be that the gap between their family backgrounds was really that great?
just when shi yao felt that she couldn’t hold on any longer, mu xingxing spoke up once more, ” “Shi Yan, when did you come to South City? Where did you all go?”
he spoke naturally, as if he was having a casual chat.
“Including today, we’ve been here for three days.” shi yan briefly listed the places she had been to these two days.
“Then we came a little later than you. We only arrived yesterday. the plane is late and it will be dark by the time we reach the hotel. this is our first destination.”
“where are you guys staying?”
“Shengshi hotel.” shi yan replied.
He looked at mu Xing with a smile and saw that she was surprised at first, then surprised. “really? we’re also staying in glory world!”
” speaking of which, this wasn’t the hotel we booked at the start. when we arrived at the hotel, we realized that the hotel had left out our registration. it was the hotel manager who came forward and used his connections to help us book a room at glory world. ”
shi yao nodded her head in agreement, proving that mu xingxing’s words were true.
“then we’re really fated.” Shi Yan said.
“We are indeed fated.” Mu Xingxing was very happy. what are your plans next? Go back to the hotel or take a walk?”
“let’s go back to the hotel after a while. i don’t have any other plans today.”
“Shall we go with you? he said he wanted to be friends with you, but he couldn’t find a chance to spend time with you. Since we’ve bumped into each other, I want to treat you to a meal.”
“i don’t know if i have the honor.”
shi yao wanted to stop him, but it was already too late. mu xingxing had already spoken.
forget it, let’s just leave it at that. these handsome men and beautiful women won’t eat people anyway.
“You’re being too serious. It was fate that they met, so let’s go together. As for treating us to dinner, there’s still some time before dinner time. There’s no hurry, we’ll talk about it when the time comes.”
“I’m really afraid that you’ll reject me. I’m not afraid that you’ll laugh at me for saying this. You didn’t reject me, so I’m relieved. shi yan, i really want to be friends with you.”
“it’s my honor,” shi yan smiled.
just like that, the four people who came became six people on the return trip.
fortunately, the hotel had arranged a seven-seater car for them. otherwise, they would not have been able to fit in.
When they returned to the hotel, mu Xingxing once again offered to treat them to a meal. Shi Yan had no intention of refusing. su mu and jing hailan wanted to call shi yan over alone to ask her what she was thinking and if she really wanted mu xingxing to treat them to a meal.
After some thought, they gave up on the idea.
On the other hand, Jiang che acted as if Shi Yan could do whatever she wanted and he would listen to all her arrangements.
Just like that, the group arrived at a restaurant near the hotel.
it was mu’s treat.
The meal went very smoothly without any changes. Jupiter was sincere and not too enthusiastic throughout the whole process. It was just a normal behavior of making friends.
After leaving the restaurant, mu Xingxing walked to the front desk to settle the bill with Shi Yao following behind.
jing hailan took the opportunity to approach shi yan and asked in a low voice, ” “Yan, what’s with this mu planet? i really just want to be friends with you?”
she really couldn’t figure it out.
“maybe.” Shi Yan gave her a comforting smile. sister hai LAN, don’t worry. Even if she really has other intentions, we’re not afraid.
“with fifth lord jiang around, i’m very confident,” she said, holding jiang che’s arm.
jiang che, who had been silent all this while and was like a backdrop, heard her words. he smiled and raised his hand to rub her head, his eyes full of love and indulgence for her.
jing hailan looked at them and suddenly felt relieved.
“That’s true.”
She was also confused. With Yan’s sister and the fifth Lord’s abilities, the person who could make them suffer had not appeared yet.
besides, she and su mu were vegetarians.
mu xingxing settled the bill and the few of them were about to leave the restaurant when someone suddenly came in from outside. he walked in a little hurriedly and directly bumped into mu xingxing.
mu xingxing almost fell. shi yan reached out and pulled her.
“are you alright?”
“I’m fine. I just got hit. thank you, shi yan. if you hadn’t pulled me back in time, i would have really fallen.”
the person who bumped into her was a boy. he staggered a little but did not fall.
” i’m sorry, ” she apologized after she steadied herself. ” i bumped into you. are you hurt? ”
no, Yingluo. mu Xing was about to say no when he saw the other person’s appearance. you, you’re Yingluo. I’m sorry, I think you look a little familiar. Have we met before? ”
“it’s you! mu qianqian was on the mu planet, right? My sister’s friend. I went overseas to visit my sister before and we met once. My name is Xie Xingchen, do you remember?”
“i remember you’re xingran’s second brother!”
” what a coincidence to meet mr. xie here. ”
“Yes, what a coincidence. Miss mu, are you here to eat?” At this moment, she saw Shi Yan and the others. She seemed to be a little stunned by their appearance and temperament and was slightly dazed.
However, he quickly recovered and asked mu Xingxing with a smile, ” “Miss mu, are these your friends?”
“i guess so. Mr. Xie, you must have something urgent to attend to since you left in such a hurry. We won’t hold you up any longer.”
Xie Xingchen smacked his forehead. look at my memory. I almost forgot that I still have things to do. I’ll go and get busy first. If there’s a chance, I’ll ask miss mu out for a meal alone.
he nodded politely to shi yan and the others and then walked into the restaurant.
walking out of the restaurant, mu xingxing explained to shi yan, ” “that man just now is xingran’s second brother. i met him once at a school abroad. i didn’t expect him to still remember me.”
“the second young master of the xie family?” Shi Yan asked casually.
in fact, she didn’t care what kind of person xie xingchen was.
“I don’t know the details, but since xingran is the eldest daughter of the Xie family, her second brother should be the second young master of the Xie family. forget it, yaoyao and i are going to the nearby night market. do you guys want to come?”
“no, i’m a little tired. i want to go back to the hotel to rest.”
” alright, we’ll take our leave then. be careful when you go back. ”
“Alright, you guys too.”
