Chapter 724: Chapter 722 Does He Have a Girlfriend_1

He stepped forward directly, took her backpack from her shoulder, and strode towards the parking lot.

Xu Zeming immediately followed.

Muxia hurried to catch up as well.

Both boys had long legs, taking a single step that matched her two.

So Muxia obviously struggled a bit, forced to jog to keep up with them.

The delicate girl didn’t run far before she was panting, her bangs damp with sweat on her forehead, her complexion even more flushed.

Once Jiang Qingchen noticed, he immediately slowed down, quietly waiting for her.

Xu Zeming wasn’t as considerate, still walking briskly forward. It wasn’t until he reached the parking lot that he realized the other two were still halfway there.

"Why are you so slow?" he asked with a frown.

Muxia gently bit her lip, squeezing out an embarrassed and apologetic voice, "Sorry, it’s me who is walking too slow."

"It’s okay, you’re a girl, it’s understandable if you walk slowly," Xu Zeming always had a layer of understanding shell when facing girls.

You couldn’t see any hint of his playful and flirty nature.

Muxia couldn’t help but lower her head and smile sweetly.

He was really gentle, really considerate!

Such a guy, she was determined to chase!

"Muxia, get on."

Jiang Qingchen’s cold voice entered her ears, and Muxia snapped back to reality, quickly jogging over.

The young man had already retrieved his bike, sitting on it with one foot on the ground to support it.

After Muxia climbed onto the rear seat, she waved to Xu Zeming, "Xu, goodbye, and thank you for helping me with my books this morning."

She had intended to thank him in person and almost forgot, but fortunately, she remembered.

Muxia was quite relieved.

"You’re welcome, Muxia, goodbye!" Xu Zeming’s warm smile came in response.

Seeing that they were still talking, Jiang Qingchen’s face immediately darkened, and he quickly pedaled away.

Although Xu Zeming was soon out of sight, his smile and his voice were etched into Muxia’s heart, popping up from time to time.

Immersed in love, the young girl couldn’t help but let out a laugh.

He was really handsome, really gentle!

Ying ying ying, she really wanted to be his girlfriend.

"Is there something that’s making you happy?" Jiang Qingchen asked, unable to resist, as he heard the girl’s bell-like laughter.

"Nothing..." How could she possibly share her heart’s thoughts with him?

Even if he was like her own brother.

Jiang Qingchen’s expression inevitably darkened, slightly displeased.

But he was not insensitive, and he didn’t insist on asking further.

As the bike moved forward, it finally brought a cool breeze to the hot summer.

Muxia instinctively wrapped her arms around his waist.

Before her brother went on exchange, she would always hug him like this when biking, so she didn’t feel anything wrong with this gesture.

But Jiang Qingchen immediately froze, becoming uncontrollably rigid.

Even through a thin layer of school uniform, he could distinctly feel the girl’s delicate and soft hands.

Softer than a cotton Tuanzi.

Especially since she was now hugging his waist.

The young man’s blood began to swirl uncontrollably, and Jiang Qingchen’s Adam’s apple moved as he tensed up.

The bike wobbled because of his abnormal behavior, and if it weren’t for Jiang Qingchen snapping back to reality in time, they would have fallen to the ground by now.

"Qingchen! What are you doing!" Muxia exclaimed in horror, her eyes wide with instinctive panic, like a frightened rabbit.

Jiang Qingchen steadied the bike, his tone awkward, "Sorry, I got distracted for a moment, I’ll ride properly from now on."

"You must ride properly, what if you fall?" Muxia, still catching her shocked breath, patted the area where her heart was, puffed out her cheeks, and chided.

Jiang Qingchen glanced down at the hand she had wrapped around his waist, "Muxia, don’t worry, even if we fall, I won’t let anything happen to you."

He would surely be her human cushion if that happened.

"But if you get hurt, I’ll be very upset too, okay!" Muxia glared at his back, none too pleased.

He was her half-brother from a different father and mother!

Even though he knew she only saw him as a brother, Jiang Qingchen’s heart still felt warm and cozy at her words, like being covered with a cotton quilt that had been warmed in the sun.

"Mmm..." he hummed in a low voice, his tone carrying a subtle joy.

The youth pedaled the bike forward, weaving through the tree-lined road.

Occasionally, a plane tree leaf would fall, light streaming through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled, sparkling patches on his shoulder.

Along the way, Muxia bit her lip and twisted her fingers, and after hesitating for a long time, she finally couldn’t help but ask, "Qingchen, does your desk mate Xu Zeming have a girlfriend?"

Forgive her; she really wanted to know!

If she didn’t even know this and recklessly pursued someone, causing trouble and inconvenience, that wouldn’t be good.

Jiang Qingchen was taken aback, asking in confusion, "Why are you asking about this?"

Muxia had already thought of an excuse, "Didn’t he help me move books into the classroom before? My desk mate saw him afterward and really likes him, so I’m asking for her!"

Fearing her hidden secret would be discovered, Muxia’s heart raced as she lied, her ears turning red.

Luckily for her, Jiang Qingchen couldn’t see her face; otherwise, he would have known she was lying.

Jiang Qingchen didn’t suspect that the girl had fallen for his brother, so he simply told her, "He doesn’t have a girlfriend."

No girlfriend!

That’s great!

Muxia clenched her little fists excitedly and waved them joyfully in the air a couple of times.

After calming herself, Muxia’s eyes shone as she continued, "Then how is he at studying?"

Jiang Qingchen replied, "Pretty good, but not as good as me."

"I see!" Muxia’s lips couldn’t help but curl up, conveniently ignoring the second half of his sentence.

So he’s a top student too!

Muxia kept digging, "By the way, does he like spicy or bland food?"

"Not sure, I’m not his mother," Jiang Qingchen said with slight impatience.

Muxia thought about it and realized he was right, so she changed the subject, "Then what color does he like?"

"Don’t know."

"Where does he live?"

"I’m not the census bureau, how would I know."

"Isn’t he your desk mate? How do you not know anything?"

Jiang Qingchen choked, then questioned warily, "What about you, why do you need to know all this so clearly?"

Could this guy be interested in Xu Zeming?

"I..." Her face heated up, and she swallowed nervously, repeating her earlier claim, "Didn’t I say? My desk mate is interested in him. I’m just asking for her, that’s all."

Jiang Qingchen fell silent for a moment, feeling something was off.

But he couldn’t figure out exactly what was wrong.

So after pondering for a moment, he simply advised, "You’d better tell your classmate, Xu Zeming is not a good guy. He’s okay as a friend, but absolutely not suitable as a boyfriend."
