Chapter 195: Behave Don't Move 08_1

“Brother and I…

We have no relationship.”

Suddenly, with a squeak, the modified convertible already winding its way up the hill came to an abrupt halt.

“Ah!”

The two girls jerked forcefully.

Mu Ziying let out a sharp scream.

“What’s the matter?

Brother, is it .

.

.”

When she saw the icy profile of Mu Xiaoyao in the front, Mu Ziying immediately bit her lip.

She clenched her mouth shut, not daring to speak recklessly anymore.

Brother …

He doesn’t seem to be in a good mood …

could it possibly be because .

.

.

She looked at Baili Xia, who was also looking at her.

Both were utterly bewildered.

“You said, we have no relationship?” Ahead, the ten fingers of Mu Xiaoyao cradled around the steering wheel, tension evident.

So, he was mad because of Baili Xia’s words.

Both Mu Ziying and Baili Xia understood this almost instantly.

But why would Brother be bothered about such a trivial comment?

“Last night, Brother and Ye Hua went for a jog and came back to get me for a treatment.”

Baili Xia had no idea how to explain — how to repudiate the relationship, yet not offend this capricious Brother.

There was no harm intended in her previous statement.

Why did he get annoyed?

“I gave Brother a leg massage and accidentally fell asleep.”

She glanced at Mu Ziying, conveying the situation as quickly as possible.

“Maybe Brother was a bit tired; he fell asleep and didn’t realize so .

.

.

hence it happened.”

The car finally moved.

Unsure whether her words made him satisfied or not.

However, on the way to school, both Baili Xia and Mu Ziying remained silent.

The ride to school was, thankfully, uneventful.

As soon as Mu Ziying got out of the car, she darted towards her dormitory.

It was rumoured that numerous events, both big and small, were planned for this semester.

Such activities were exactly the type that Mu Ziying adored.

As for Mu Xiaoyao, he simply watched as Baili Xia proceeded towards her dorm, and then walked in the direction of his apartment.

His apartment was also located in the men’s dormitory building, not far from Baili Xia’s dorm.

However, the interiors and the expensive rents were worlds apart.

Baili Xia’s dorm was just an ordinary one, sufficiently luxurious as it was.

As for Mu Xiaoyao’s, needless to say, it was extravagant.

There were even maids coming round to clean regularly.

It was like staying in a hotel: one could find the same comfort while studying.

When Baili Xia returned to her dorm, Ning Anran was already in the small kitchen preparing something.

One has to admit, Imperial College was truly opulent.

Every dormitory was a suite.

Small living rooms, lounges, bathrooms, kitchens — they had it all.

Of course, students had to pay quite hefty fees each semester.

“I heard a big shot is scheduled to visit today, Xiaxia, did you hear anything about it at the Mu family?”

Ning Anran, stirring egg whites, asked curiously.

Baili Xia placed her stuff down, and promptly entered the kitchen.

After washing her hands, she started helping her out.

“No, I didn’t ask, and they wouldn’t be concerned with such trivialities.”

“Oh.” Ning Anran was somewhat disappointed.

She assumed the important visitor had something to do with the Mu family.

But if even Baili Xia didn’t get a whiff of it, how could it be someone from the Mu family?

“What’s the matter?” Seeing her look somewhat dejected, Baili Xia leaned in closer.

Examining her face closely, she suddenly grinned, “Do you have someone you’re looking forward to?

Who do you wish it to be?”

“No way!

I just came to Jin City, I don’t know any big wigs!

Stop joking around!”

Ning Anran jumped, quickly turned her face away, and avoided looking at her.

However, her little face blushed, and her heart rate suddenly sped up.

“Hurry up, we won’t make it in time!

Hurry!”
