Chapter 519: Chapter 517: Because I Love You_1

Hearing the crisp sound of the door closing, Xiaoxiao felt as if she were dreaming, wondering why Mu Zisu seemed like an entirely different person to her.

He... he doesn’t have a problem with his brain, does he?

It wasn’t long before Mu Zisu came in, holding a bowl of porridge, and Xiaoxiao felt a sense of surprise and privilege. She couldn’t be seeing things... could she?

"What’s wrong?" Mu Zisu, seeing Xiaoxiao’s astonished expression, couldn’t help but ask.

"You... What’s with you today?" Xiaoxiao finally couldn’t help but voice the confusion in her heart.

He actually brought her porridge... Was he really all right?

"What about me?" Mu Zisu sat on the bed edge, raising an eyebrow at her.

"You... Why would you..." Xiaoxiao truly didn’t know how to convey the shock she felt inside.

Mu Zisu could easily see what she was thinking. He lifted the bowl of porridge from the tray and stirred it with a spoon twice, looking at her playfully: "Xiaoxiao..."

"Hmm?" Xiaoxiao looked up at him.

"I am taking care of my girl..." Mu Zisu declared with an unsettling calm.

Xiaoxiao was suddenly struck speechless—

Her heart thumped wildly...

"Come..." Mu Zisu’s eyes held a smile as he held the spoon to her lips.

Xiaoxiao’s face belatedly flushed with realization—

What did he mean by his words just now?

"Good girl... Open up..." Mu Zisu continued with good nature.

Xiaoxiao felt like she’d been struck by lightning. Why did the whole world change after just one sleep?

"Xiaoxiao..."

Just then, Mu Zixuan entered without even knocking.

Seeing the scene by the bed, she couldn’t help but chuckle.

"Gosh... Xiaoxiao, I’ve never seen Yaoyao be this considerate ever~~"

Xiaoxiao’s face turned even redder—

Mu Zisu glanced irritably at Mu Zixuan, who was smirking mischievously, "You’re back..." While speaking, he nudged the spoon towards Xiaoxiao’s mouth again.

Only then did Xiaoxiao accept reality and opened her mouth—

"Hmm... I nearly got busy to death today, otherwise, I would have come back earlier..."

Mu Zixuan moved closer, standing in front of Mu Zisu and Xiaoxiao.

"Xiaoxiao... Are you okay? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Mu Zixuan asked tenderly, the scene from yesterday nearly scared her to death.

Xiaoxiao’s heart skipped a beat, realizing that Shanshan had witnessed yesterday’s situation as well.

After Mu Zisu burst into the room yesterday, she had no awareness of her surroundings or what happened.

All she knew was that her body was twisted, the world was twisted, and she remembered nothing else.

But now, apart from feeling a bit tired, she didn’t feel any discomfort; everything was as normal as before.

"Hmm... Much better..." She said, smiling at Mu Zixuan while trying to fix her mouth into a grin.

Mu Zixuan’s eyes roamed before she finally voiced her concern: "Xiaoxiao... What exactly happened to you last night? Why did you suddenly... get in so much pain?" And on top of that, the medical equipment couldn’t identify the cause, which worried her the most.

Xiaoxiao was taken aback by Mu Zixuan’s question.

At the same time, Mu Zisu also looked at her with an inquisitive gaze.

Xiaoxiao, somewhat uncertain, looked back at Mu Zisu and Mu Zixuan: "I’m not too clear myself... It must have been an old ailment..."

As she spoke, her heart also couldn’t help but clench. She was uncertain whether Mu Zisu had seen the abnormality on her face when he barged in yesterday.

Before figuring out the reason, she could only say it was an old illness.

"Old illness? What kind of illness is so terrifying?" Mu Zixuan exclaimed in shock.

Xiaoxiao furrowed her brows and shook her head, "I don’t know..."

Mu Zisu’s deep eyes flickered, his tone gentle, "Take your time to investigate, you’ll find out eventually..."

A feeling of apprehension grew stronger in Xiaoxiao’s heart, causing her to suddenly feel terrified deep inside!

Perhaps this "old illness" was something only her father knew about—

"Mm..." She nonchalantly lowered her eyelids and drank the porridge Mu Zisu brought to her lips without showing much interest.

Mu Zisu, seeing the bottom of the bowl of porridge, softly asked again, "Another bowl?"

Xiaoxiao quickly shook her head, "I’m full..."

Mu Zisu smiled, glanced at Mu Zixuan who was sitting by the bed, and then walked out with the bowl.

Watching Mu Zisu disappear through the door, Mu Zixuan immediately moved closer to Xiaoxiao and asked, "Xiaoxiao...are you really alright?"

Xiaoxiao shifted her body and then assured her, "Mm... I’m fine now..."

Mu Zixuan blinked in astonishment and sighed with relief, "Good, good..."

As soon as she finished speaking, as if remembering something, she hurriedly added, "Xiaoxiao... Yanruo drank too much yesterday, that’s why she couldn’t control her emotions for a moment. There’s nothing between Yaoyao and her; don’t misunderstand..."

Xiaoxiao looked up at her—

She immediately continued, "Really, they have nothing going on. Yanruo did pursue Yaoyao before, but Yaoyao rejected her. You might not have seen it yesterday, but Yaoyao was really concerned about you... I guarantee his heart is definitely with you!" Mu Zixuan spoke with conviction.

Xiaoxiao’s eyes dimmed, and she lowered her eyelashes. She perhaps had no right to comment on Mu Zisu and Su Yanruo.

"Mm..." She nodded gently.

When Mu Zisu returned to the bedroom, Mu Zixuan then got up and left.

"Still sleepy?" Mu Zisu sat by the bed, his voice tender.

Xiaoxiao didn’t speak but raised her eyes and stared steadfastly at the man in front of her, who was infinitely tender and overwhelmingly caring.

"Why do you care about me?" Her tone was light, her gaze calm. She wanted to know why he cared for her—

Was it sympathy? Or pity?

Mu Zisu’s pupils contracted slightly. Why did he care for her?

Did that question even need to be asked?

Both their gazes met, neither moving nor speaking.

The room was so quiet it was almost terrifying, and even their somewhat subdued breathing could be heard...

Xiaoxiao slightly raised her chin, looking steadfastly at Mu Zisu, as if waiting for his answer.

Mu Zisu helplessly smiled, took a breath, and reached out to pull Xiaoxiao into his embrace—

"Because I love you... Xiaoxiao... I’ve fallen in love with you long ago..."

Perhaps it was in Canada, or perhaps after coming to C City, but either way, he loved her—

Mu Zisu’s voice was rich and husky, striking at the deepest part of Xiaoxiao’s heart—

The world seemed to stand still at that moment. When Xiaoxiao heard Mu Zisu’s first words, she thought she was hallucinating, but his next words struck like a thunderclap, exploding in her mind!

He said he loved her?

He said he had fallen in love with her long ago?

Tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes as she clung tightly to Mu Zisu, like a piece of driftwood in the vast ocean, holding on so fiercely, with all her might...
