After walking some distance away, Yin Shaojie asked, âYou said that you wanted to do an experiment. What did you mean by that? Youâre not just gonna snatch her away like that, are you?â
Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head, touching her lower lip as she said, âThe experiment⦠I was just trying to see what he was up to. Donât you think heâs weird?â
Yin Shaojie stared at her, amused. âWhen did you become so perceptive that you can see through him?â
He didnât believe that she was capable of reading Chris.
Mu Xiaoxiao said, âItâs not that. Think about it. I deliberately told him that Ye Sijue is also going with us. I donât believe that he thinks thereâs nothing between Annie and Ye Sijue. How can he be so relaxed? Do you think that he has something up his sleeve? I have a vague feeling that he has something planned.â
Ever since the first time she saw Chris, she had felt that he was a bit⦠off.
Mu Xiaoxiao seemed to have thought of something. Stopping suddenly, her eyes widened as she looked to Yin Shaojie, her voice trembling as she said, âDo you think⦠he might be planning to get rid of Ye Sijue when we go out with him? He could frame us and itâll have nothing to do with him! And given Annieâs innocent personality, she wouldnât ever doubt him.â
Yin Shaojie said, âArenât you imagining things?â
âDo you think itâs impossible? Think about it, who is Chris? Heâs a prince! It would be easy for him to have someone killed. And Iâve seen many like him before. Itâs like that⦠that prince from the Emirates! Some of them donât value human lives! Theyâll kill for trivial reasons.â Mu Xiaoxiao shaking her head, looking serious.
Yin Shaojie reached out and rubbed her head. âOkay, stop over-thinking things. If heâs planning something as you say he is, then he did he take care of Sijue before we arrived. Why let us in at all?â
âWasnât Annie there at the time? He couldnât deal with him because sheâs around. Besides, he might have been observing during that time. He might not know how close Annie and Ye Sijue are with each other. But after Annie nursed him back to he-â
Yin Shaojie suddenly stoppered her mouth and looked around.
Mu Xiaoxiaoâs eyes widened as she stared at him, her voice muffled as it came through the gaps in his fingers. âWhatâs wrong?â
Yin Shaojie made a shush gesture. âQuiet. Are you forgetting that we are on their turf? You spoke so ill of him. Arenât you afraid that he might get people to spy on our every move? Youâre talking so loudly. Arenât you afraid that he might find out about your plan?â
Hearing that, Mu Xiaoxiao shut her mouth nervously, looking around.
Yin Shaojie was amused by the look on her face. He held her little hand and said, âCome on. Letâs get out of here.â
âAlright. Weâll talk when we get out!â Mu Xiaoxiao said.
Yin Shaojie smiled. She was just too cute.
He couldnât help but lift her up and give her a kiss.
