Chapter 620: Chapter 618: Mocked Again_1

After returning to the Mu Family household, Mu Zixuan, Mu Ziqing, and Mu Zisu greeted Xiaoxiao before they each headed to their own rooms.

Xiaoxiao was determined not to share a room with Zisu tonight.

Consequently, after reaching the second floor, she began to slow down, trailing behind Zisu.

She had decided that if Zisu headed towards her room, she would go to his instead.

Sure enough, Zisu stopped in front of the door to her room, casually opened it, and then stepped inside.

Xiaoxiao pursed her lips; after he entered, she quickly ran to his room’s door, opened it, then locked it and double-locked it.

Phew~

Leaning against the door, she finally exhaled in relief.

Meanwhile, upon entering the room and hearing the sound of the door closing, Zisu couldn’t help but turn around, only to find the doorway empty.

He raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement suddenly flashing in his deep eyes.

Catching her breath, Xiaoxiao then looked down and gave the door a check to ensure it was locked before she started roaming around Zisu’s room.

As she wandered, she couldn’t help but nod in approval; his room’s style suited him—it was cold and impersonal.

Thinking of the phrase "cold and impersonal," she shook her head; though Zisu might appear to be that way, he really wasn’t, not at all. Put plainly, it was all an act.

With a slight grimace, she headed to the bathroom, intending to take a shower and sleep soundly.

After coming out of the bathroom, she frowned in annoyance. Without her pajamas, what was she to do?

Without much thought, she turned her gaze around the room and then approached the wardrobe, pulling its door open.

Upon seeing the clothes inside, she was taken aback.

Half menswear, half womenswear...

It was strange—she felt like these were the same clothes she had worn before...

She pulled out a black nightgown and felt her cheeks flush. Why was it so see-through?

How was she supposed to wear this?

Had she ever had such heavy tastes?

No, no... Shaking her head, she placed it back in the wardrobe...

After searching a bit more, she found something she could accept and changed into it.

Just as she finished changing, the door lock clicked twice. Before she could grasp what was happening, the door was pushed open, revealing Zisu’s irresistibly handsome face.

She froze in place, staring blankly at a smiling Zisu.

Zisu lifted up a set of keys, "The butler has a set of spares..."

Xiaoxiao felt utterly defeated... Spares?

How could she not have thought of that... Heavens...

Zisu walked in with a smile, closing and locking the door behind him.

The crisp sound of the lock clicking snapped Xiaoxiao back to reality.

She protested frustratedly, "You... then I’ll go stay next door..."

Zisu approached, scooped her up horizontally, and teased, "Go next door? Sure... we can go together..."

As Zisu really seemed ready to carry her out next door, Xiaoxiao was on the verge of tears. What if someone saw him carrying her out?

In a panic, she said, "No need, no need... let’s just stay here..."

A triumphant smile passed through Zisu’s eyes, "Fine, we’ll stay here..."

"..."

Xiaoxiao felt she had been played by Zisu again.

--

The next morning, when Xiaoxiao regained consciousness, she suddenly realized there was no one beside her...

Startled, she instantly opened her eyes and saw an empty space beside the bed; the room was hollow and echoing, a streak of desolation slipping into her heart.

It seemed that she had grown accustomed to waking up in his arms every day, opening her eyes to see his familiar face...

This was not a good habit...

As she sat up in bed, a twist of her head brought a light blue Post-it note on the nightstand into view.

Curious, she picked it up, and the sight of the beautiful, unbelievable black ink handwriting came into view: "Behave and stay at home with Shanshan and Qiqi; I have to do some market research today."

Xiaoxiao’s lips curved into a smile, her mind involuntarily sketching the expression he’d have while saying these words.

It would probably be a gentle look, with a smile at the corners of his mouth...

At this thought, her heart uncontrollably started to race.

The sensation was unfamiliar but also tinged with familiarity, and realizing the emotional shift, she promptly covered her left chest with her hand, a touch of panic flashing in her eyes.

Could it be... that she had fallen for him...

When Xiaoxiao, with her complicated feelings, descended the stairs, only Zixuan and Ziqing were in the dining room.

"Xiaoxiao... Today, it’s just the three of us at home; we can romp and play to our hearts’ content..." Ziqing said, looking at Xiaoxiao with joy.

Upon hearing Ziqing’s words, Xiaoxiao’s tangled feelings instantly took flight.

She laughed, "Where is everyone else?"

"Brother went to the company, Daddy and Mommy are busy out as well, oh right, and grandmother, she’s in the garden..."

Xiaoxiao nodded and then looked at Zixuan, "Is Shanshan not going to the company today either?"

Zixuan immediately shook her head, "In a couple of days..."

"Hurry up and eat breakfast; after we finish, we’ll go play ball..." Ziqing was visibly excited.

"Play what ball?" Xiaoxiao asked as she sat down and looked up at her.

"Let’s go out... to the golf course to play..." Ziqing suggested, batting her eyelashes at them.

Zixuan immediately raised her hand in agreement, and seeing their eager faces, Xiaoxiao also nodded, "Sure..." After all, she wasn’t very good at it—a bit of practice wouldn’t hurt.

After breakfast, the trio headed out, lightly dressed.

Arriving at the golf course, Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement; she actually quite liked this so-called golf.

"Xiaoxiao... How about I teach you?" Ziqing said, squinting her eyes at Xiaoxiao, who seemed lost in thought with a golf club in hand.

"No need, no need, I learned a bit last time..." Xiaoxiao chuckled.

"Last time? When was that?" Ziqing frowned, looking at her, wondering why she wasn’t included.

"It was a few days ago in Bali..." It was Zisu who had taught her.

"Ah~ I really regret not being able to go last time..." Ziqing made a sour face.

"Want to go? Let that guy who’s pursuing you take you..." Zixuan approached the two and teased Ziqing.

Ziqing suddenly raised her hands in surrender, "Sister... I’ll just go with you guys next time..."

Xiaoxiao looked surprised at Ziqing, "Qiqi... someone is chasing you? How come I don’t know about it?"

"That guy’s always so mysterious. Who knows who he is? Qiqi, if he keeps this up, just ignore him from now on!" Zixuan said with a pout.

Feeling awkward, Ziqing merely laughed, "Come on... let’s play golf..."

Not far from the three girls, a few dandies occasionally glanced over, especially one with dyed yellow hair; his eyes kept bouncing over their figures.

"Qingjian... those three over there are absolute beauties..." said a sleazy man next to the yellow-haired guy, eyes lecherously fixed on Xiaoxiao and her friends.
