Chapter 469: Chapter 467 What Are Your Intentions?_1

Na Xiaoxiao nervously stared at the phone screen, but five minutes went by... ten minutes went by... fifteen minutes went by... and still, there wasn’t a single word from Mu Zisu.

She irritably scratched her hair. Had he not seen it, or did he see it and was just ignoring her?

Should she send another?

After tossing and turning on the bed for a good while, she mustered up the courage and sent another message--"Are you there?"

Afterwards, she continued to stare at the phone screen with wide-open eyes...

The time spent waiting is often the most tormenting, Xiaoxiao deeply felt that sense of anxious unease...

Yet another fifteen minutes went by, and Mu Zisu hadn’t sent back even a punctuation mark...

Xiaoxiao’s patience had finally worn thin. She couldn’t believe that, after mustering the courage to try to please him, he completely disregarded her. To be such a failure as a person...

Then, with immense reluctance, she typed a few more characters: "Forget it, I’m going to sleep..." and without a moment’s pause, she hit the send button directly.

After the message was successfully sent, she suddenly widened her eyes in shock. Damn it! How did she include the words "forget it" in the message?

That sentence, with two extra words or two fewer words, was not the same concept at all.

Now great, instead of pleasing someone, those two extra words changed the whole tone, unmistakably making it seem like she was sulking, throwing a tantrum...

She rubbed her forehead speechlessly, pondering for a good while, then tossed her phone aside, muttering softly, "Forget it, I’m going to sleep..." There was no use fretting about it now that it had been sent.

After all, he wasn’t going to pay her any attention...

Just as she lay down for three seconds, her phone unexpectedly chimed with a ding-dong!

She was shocked!

She slowly reached for the phone and, with excitement mixed with nerves, she swiped open the message--

Three domineering words suddenly appeared on the screen--"Don’t you dare sleep!"

Her fingers trembled, and the phone slipped from her grasp, striking her forehead...

It hurt so much that she winced in pain... Could she be any more unlucky!

Rubbing her forehead, Xiaoxiao then got up, picked up the phone, and frowned at the message. "Don’t you dare sleep?" What did that mean?

This big boss spoke in riddles, and she, a tiny shrimp, couldn’t understand him at all?

After weighing options in her mind, she decided to put the spirit of ’when in doubt, just ask’ into practice---"Why?"

After sending the message, she nervously leaned against the bed head. She was expecting to wait another ten or so minutes, but this time, Mu Zisu replied with lightning speed--"Go downstairs and get a glass of water."

Xiaoxiao’s mouth twitched, realizing he was treating her like an employee again!

But fortunately, he finally acknowledged her presence. Fetching water it was, just a glass of water. She was thirsty anyway...

So, she scurried downstairs, first poured herself a drink, then filled Mu Zisu’s usual crystal glass, and cautiously carried it upstairs.

When she got to Mu Zisu’s door, her heart uncontrollably started to pound again.

No matter... It was he who asked for water...

After this thought, she raised her hand and knocked lightly twice. After waiting for a while with no response, she knocked twice more...

"The door’s unlocked..." Finally, she heard Mu Zisu’s detached, emotionless voice.

Xiaoxiao should have been relieved, but hearing his voice made her even more nervous, feeling as if it had been forever since they had spoken. She was really nervous...

Then she turned the handle and carefully stepped inside...

She had only taken two steps inside when she felt her cheeks flush involuntarily. The reason was simple--it was just because Mu Zisu was lying lazily at the edge of the bed in a black silk robe, casually reading a book...

Just his profile was enough to make Xiaoxiao’s heart beat even faster...

Standing still, she didn’t dare move closer, "Uh... your water..."

Mu Zisu finally lifted his head, looking towards her...

Xiaoxiao’s heart suddenly tightened---

Though she had been by his side for five years, each time she saw his face, she couldn’t help but marvel at it secretly...

His features were like a finely carved masterpiece, a work of art from the hands of God, with a pair of bright diamond-like, deep ancient well-like black eyes that were now slightly narrowed as they looked towards her.

The prominent bridge of his nose made his features even more perfect, yet those lightly pursed thin lips signaled his cold indifference.

But right now, clad only in a black silk robe, he managed to look even more devilishly charming.

This Mu Zisu made Xiaoxiao feel too nervous to look at him directly...

She feared that if she kept looking, her face would turn so red that it would be embarrassing...

"Bring it here..." Mu Zisu said to the person standing at the door, his voice clear, cold, and indifferent.

Xiaoxiao’s heart skipped a beat, and then, with her head slightly lowered, she nervously walked towards Mu Zisu.

When she reached the bedside, she slowly extended the cup in her hand towards Mu Zisu.

Seeing Xiaoxiao’s submissive demeanor, Mu Zisu couldn’t help but frown. Hadn’t she been quite bold just a moment ago?

"What do you want?" he asked, taking the cup.

"Ah?" Xiaoxiao looked up.

"Why did you send me so many messages?" Mu Zisu glanced at her.

Xiaoxiao’s lips suddenly twitched. Had he really seen them all? Then why had he made her wait so long?

"Nothing?" Mu Zisu asked again.

"Um... I wanted to ask if you’ll be home tomorrow..." Xiaoxiao didn’t know where the courage came from, but she actually managed to ask what she had been wondering.

Mu Zisu raised an eyebrow at her, "What about it?"

Xiaoxiao steeled herself and said, "That... if you’re home..." She trailed off, lost for words. If he was home, then what? She realized she hadn’t thought about how to appease him. Dizzy death!

"If I’m home, then what?" There was a playful glint in Mu Zisu’s eyes.

"If you’re home, I’ll cook two dishes for you!" Xiaoxiao blurted out.

Afterwards, she lowered her head and cursed herself fiercely. She wasn’t a chef, why offer to cook!

Quickly lifting her head, she added, "Or we could play chess together..." She remembered that he quite liked chess.

Mu Zisu’s eyes suddenly narrowed, "Xiaoxiao?"

"Hmm?" Xiaoxiao blinked her innocent eyes at him.

That look struck straight into the depths of Mu Zisu’s heart.

His face unchanged, he asked, "What are you plotting?"

Xiaoxiao was taken aback...

Plotting?

She did indeed have a plan...

But it was all to keep him from being angry, to keep him from treating her like she was invisible, right?

"Um..." She stood there nervously twisting her fingers.

Seeing her actions, a faint anger silently seeped into Mu Zisu’s eyes; she really did have an ulterior motive!

"Does trying to please you purely count?" Xiaoxiao asked with an open face.
