Chapter 193: Behave Don't Move 06_1

Early in the morning, an small piece of news caused a stir in the whole Mu family.

Mr.

Mu and the young Miss spent the night together!

When the maids saw Mr.

Mu, groggy-eyed from sleep, coming out of the young Miss’s room, they were utterly stunned.

They stood there, paralyzed in shock, for several minutes before they came to.

Once they composed themselves, one rushed to report to the butler and the other straightaway to the old master.

Somehow, someone overheard their conversation while either in the presence of the old master or the butler.

Thus, the news spread in no time.

Mr.

Mu slept with the young Miss!

This Mr.

Mu, who had always been notorious for his disdain for women, had…

spent the night with the young Miss!

The maids’ heart shattered like glass, yet, they were filled with a newfound determination.

At least, it seemed Mr.

Mu was not indifferent towards women, was he?

As long as he liked women, there would still be chances for everyone, right?

Ah, Mr.

Mu!

The dashing Mr.

Mu, unforgettable at the first glance!

Even if they could not be legitimately together with him, any kind of relationship would be a blessing to them.

In this house, Mr.

Mu along with the young master, and the eldest, had always been the objects of the maids’ admiration.

Now that Mr.

Mu had taken this step, would there be opportunities for them too?

What the maids thought was less of their concerns.

What everyone really cared about was, Mr.

Mu spending the night in Baili Xia’s room last night.

Did it imply that among the old master’s offered choices, Baili Xia chose Mr.

Mu?

So, when Baili Xia and Mu Xiaoyao “coincidentally” descended the stairs together, all eyes in the living room were set on them at once.

Mu Xiaojiu was not at home today, as he had left early in the morning.

Everyone was accustomed to the Uncle always being busy.

So now in the living room, except for the old master and the eldest son, Mu Lingchuan,

only Mu Ziying, who scrambled over upon hearing the news early in the morning, was left.

Seeing both of them actually coming downstairs together, Ziying’s eyes were shooting intimidating sparks.

“They, they are really together, grandpa!”

She pointed at the two of them, her fingertips visibly quivering.

The old master’s gaze was also focused on the two, until the somewhat baffled young ones came to him.

Only then did he squint his eyes and broke into a broad smile, “Are you up?

Are you hungry?”

Mu Xiaoyao responded as usual, greeted “grandpa”, and then walked towards the side room.

Baili Xia on the other hand, was a bit puzzled by the cunning smile playing at the old master’s lips.

Grandpa’s grin…

why does it seem increasingly eerie?

So…

mischievous!

Mu Lingchuan glanced at her, finding nothing unusual on her face or neck.

He felt a bit complicated, greeted the old man, stood up and followed Mu Xiaoyao.

“Did you sleep in Baili Xia’s room last night?”

“Hmm.” Mu Xiaoyao nodded.

“Nothing to say?” Mu Lingchuan asked again.

“Hungry.” That was all he said.

Mu Lingchuan asked no more.

Others might not understand, but how could he not understand his own brother?

Regardless of whether Mu Xiaoyao had spent last night in Baili Xia’s room or not.

He was certain nothing inappropriate happened between them.

If something had happened, Xiaoyao would not be this casual about it.

Don’t be fooled by his cold, heartless facade, he knew very well that underneath it, Mr.

Mu was a hopeless romantic!

But perhaps it was for the best.

At least, in the future, when Baili Xia was handed over to Mr.

Mu, grandpa wouldn’t pester him again.

That wouldn’t be so bad, after all!

Let Baili Xia be with Mr.

Mu.
