Chapter 389: Chapter 389: Chasing Xiao Xin (2)_1

Situ Jin watched Yu Qihao pick up the vibrating phone and said, "Hey, what’s up today? Both of your businesses seem pretty busy."

Yu Qihao ignored what Situ Jin said and answered the call on his own. However, his face soon darkened, just like Xiao Muli’s had. Then, without saying anything, he hung up the phone.

After seeing the grim expressions on Xiao Muli and Yu Qihao post-phone call, Situ Jin said, "I say, who on earth did you two just talk to that made your faces turn so ugly? If there’s something wrong, you can talk about it. We can think of a solution together."

After hearing Situ Jin’s words, both Xiao Muli and Yu Qihao glanced at Situ Jin but remained silent. In their minds, they were both thinking about which blind fool had dared to make a move on their girls so soon after the start of school.

If they hadn’t had a bit of reason left, knowing that Situ Xin and that so-called class monitor had just met and there was nothing between them, they would have already disregarded the military school’s rules and rushed over to Situ Xin’s school to have a ’good talk’ with that class monitor.

"Yu Qihao, Xiao Muli, Situ Jin, why are you three still here? It’s almost time for evening self-study." Two girls clad in military uniforms approached them at a leisurely pace. One of the girls had large apricot eyes and looked at Yu Qihao with a hint of admiration.

"We’re going now," said Yu Qihao, pulling the corners of his mouth slightly. Normally, Yu Qihao was quite cordial to the few girls in the class, always speaking with a smile, and even had more patience than Xiao Muli and Situ Jin. But today, Yu Qihao was troubled by the fact that some guy wanted to pursue Situ Xin, so he didn’t have the spare energy to pay attention to these two girls.

"We’re just about to head to the classroom too, so let’s go together," said the taller girl, glancing at Situ Jin with a touch of shyness.

"No, you go ahead. We three have something to discuss," Situ Jin had long noticed that these two girls were not pure-hearted. And with the presence of his outstanding little sister, Situ Xin, for comparison, the few girls in the class really couldn’t catch his eye.

The taller girl felt a slight pain in her heart from Situ Jin’s impatient tone. She wanted to say more, but the companion at her side held her back. "Well, if so, we’ll leave first. You guys should hurry up; don’t be late."

After the girls left, Situ Jin, turned to the contemplative Xiao Muli and Yu Qihao and said, "Hey, what’s really going on with you two? If there’s an issue, just spill it."

After a moment’s thought, Yu Qihao said, "Murong Wanyu just called and said there’s a guy chasing Xiao Xin."

"What, what did you say?" Situ Jin couldn’t stay calm after hearing Yu Qihao’s words. "I knew it, Baby can’t be away from us. Look, as soon as she’s out of our sight, these annoying flies start swarming. Oh, right, what did Murong Wanyu say on the phone, has Baby agreed?" "Not yet, Xiao Xin doesn’t know yet," said Yu Qihao.

This revelation unsettled not only Yu Qihao and Xiao Muli, but also Situ Jin. During the entire evening self-study, all three of them were hardly present in spirit, preoccupied with heavy thoughts. "Hmm. Not bad. The chef of Broadway is getting better and better," Situ Xin asserted contentedly as she ate the dishes that Situ Che and Loo Jie had picked for her favorite selections, speaking to Baibai.

Baibai lay on the couch of the private room, its favorite dish in front of it, eating blissfully. "Yes, it’s not bad. But it’s still not as good as the master’s cooking."

Inside the private room, because Little Princess Situ Xin was present, all the young masters behaved exceptionally well. They weren’t as they usually were, telling risqué jokes or being intimate with their female companions.

Even the female companions they’d brought kept to themselves, quietly eating their food. However, their eyes occasionally drifted towards Situ Xin. Although they were part of the same circle, there were some things, some people, they just wouldn’t know.

Situ Xin was a case in point. Seeing the doting, meticulous care Situ Che and Loo Jie showered on her, envy crept into their hearts.

Fu Xiaoyi sat next to Lan Junxi, watching Situ Xin, thinking of the days back home when she was the one everyone doted on. But now, her status, her position... Fu Xiaoyi’s hand, holding the chopsticks, clenched tightly, the discomfort biting into her flesh, but she felt none of it.

Dinner was gratifying for Situ Xin. With a juice in hand—which she’d switched for one from her own space without anyone noticing—she relaxed and asked, "So, what’s next? Do we have any other plans?"

Once Situ Xin spoke, everyone in the private room turned to Situ Che and Loo Jie, waiting for them to take the lead.

"Baby, it’s getting late; we should be heading back," said Loo Jie.

"Yeah, it’s late. We should go back and sleep. Haha," the plump one said with a somewhat stiff laugh, which he promptly stifled when Situ Xin looked his way.

"It’s not that late. Unless I’m mistaken, your night life is just starting, isn’t it?" They all treated her like an innocent child ignorant of the world. In both her past and present life, Situ Xin knew no less than anyone else present.

"Baby, be good; let’s go back. Otherwise, grandpa and the others will worry," Situ Che said helplessly. He didn’t want his family’s treasure to be seen in such places.

"It’s okay, I’ve already told grandpa I’d be out late with you guys, and he agreed," Situ Xin winked playfully at Situ Che, boasting proudly. Even though she had grown up, her charm when acting coy hadn’t faded one bit; when she acted coquettishly before Old Master Situ, he agreed to things he initially hadn’t.
