Chapter 306: Chapter 230: Rival in Love Encounter (One more)_1

For some reason, Mu Lin felt that the atmosphere in the elevator was a bit strange.

Why?

It seemed to have started when Xu Yibai entered the elevator. She was sandwiched between two men; to be honest, she didn’t like this feeling at all.

"Mu Lin." Before Mu Lin could think further, Xu Yibai’s voice rang next to her ear. "Hmm?", she responded subconsciously.

"Is this your friend?" Xu Yibai was referring to Jing Chen.

Mu Lin: "My Boss." Well, Jing Chen is her boss, at least in Ying Sun, he is her boss. She remembers people calling him boss or the team leader.

Boss.

Xu Yibai raised his eyebrows; did Mu Lin mean that he was her instructor in the military camp? Or something else?

"Not the boss." However, the next moment, Jing Chen’s deep voice echoed. His words were laced with a different kind of sexy allure, as his large hands unabashedly wrapped around Mu Lin’s slim waist, drawing her slightly closer to him. This action was filled with intimacy and intense possessiveness. "He’s the fiancée." He was warning, warning this man who was coveting his beloved.

Fi... Mu Lin subconsciously furrowed her brows.

Was this guy getting addicted? Since when did he become her fiancé?

"No denying." His lips were slightly close to Mu Lin’s ear, and he murmured, "Since you’ve admitted that I’m your boss; then, Ling Qi should have taught you, what it means to obey orders unconditionally, my Linlin." His warm breath made Mu Lin’s heart itch slightly; it felt numb.

Originally, she wanted to remove the big hand around her waist, she paused, turned her head to look at Jing Chen. In the end, Mu Lin didn’t say anything, nor did she push Jing Chen away.

She felt a bit helpless in her heart, entirely clueless about what Jing Chen was up to. She felt as though he had suddenly turned into a child who needed coddling.

Watching their interaction, Xu Yibai’s gaze became cold. He lifts his gaze, meeting the possessive and warning gaze in the reflection of the elevator doors. Seeing this, Xu Yibai’s lips slowly curve up, unceremoniously meeting Jing Chen’s chilling gaze. He only spits out two words lightly, "Really?" Fiancée, ha.

He didn’t believe it.

Although Mu Lin didn’t push him away, Xu Yibai didn’t see any adoration for Jing Chen in Mu Lin’s eyes. Not at all! What he saw was indifference or perhaps even speechlessness.

This man was nervous; even though it was only a fleeting moment, Xu Yibai could still feel it. All of this proved that Mu Lin was certainly not his fiancee.

Even if she was his fiancée, so what? As long as they weren’t married yet, he still had a chance.

As for now, a glimmer of light flashed through Xu Yibai’s eyes... let them have a fair competition.

...

"Mu Lin, are you guys planning to go out for dinner?" As he was thinking, Xu Yibai’s voice, imbued with a slight smile, sounded next to Mu Lin’s ears.

Mu Lin nodded, not hiding anything, "Jing Chen said he wanted to go out to eat." She didn’t understand why they had to specifically go out to eat. Wasn’t it more convenient to eat at the hotel?

"Is that so?" With a murmur at the corner of his mouth, Xu Yibai suddenly said: "I wonder if I have the honor to join you guys. I’ve been eating the food here for a few days now and I would like to change things up." His gaze was expectant as he looked at Mu Lin.

Mu Lin: "I don’t mind." However, just as she finished speaking, the large hand around her waist suddenly tightened, Mu Lin was drawn even closer to Jing Chen. She looked at him with a frown, "What are you doing?" His lips twitched slightly, but no sound came out.

Without uttering a word, he encountered the faintly smiling eyes through the elevator mirror in front. Jing Chen snorted coldly. It seemed like he had been provoked.

If it was in the military camp, he would have used his fists to do the talking. But at this moment, what they were competing for was Linlin’s heart. Ha! So, he wanted to see who Linlin truly cared for in her heart.

Despite this, there was a faint sigh in Jing Chen’s heart at the moment. He was thinking, just how many potential romantic rivals had his Linlin attracted to herself?

The three of them arrived at the hotel entrance. It was already evening, and the sky was slowly turning dark.

"Where are we going to eat?" Mu Lin turned her head to look at Jing Chen. It was his idea. Regardless, she was a newcomer to Ming City, so obviously, she wouldn’t know where to eat in such a large place.
