âCome on! Donât make him angry. You wonât like what happens next.â He Qiya was very anxious as she reminded them.
The three girls then came around to it, remembering of the rumors of the Great Master Yinâs bad temper. A chill ran along their backs.
The three girls looked at each other and forced themselves to come out and say to Mu Xiaoxiao, âIâm sorryâ¦â
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and said very magnanimously, âWhatâs there to apologize for? Itâs no big deal. Iâm not bothered. Today is Qiyaâs birthday. Letâs not spoil it. Everyone, please continue and enjoy yourselves.â
He Qiya politely nodded and took the three friends away.
Mu Xiaoxiao observed her as she left.
Yin Shaojie leaned his handsome face over to her ear and asked, âWhat are you thinking about?â
âIâm wondering⦠Was she the one who sent those three girls?â Mu Xiaoxiao rubbed her chin. âIâm quite a good judge of character. At least, Qiya doesnât seem like that kind of person to me.â
âYouâre a good judge of character? Are you sure? What about that Yu Zhe?â Yin Shaojie roasted her.
Mu Xiaoxiao was silent for a moment. Then she coughed awkwardly and said, âWell⦠Even the best fall down sometimes! Besides, Yu Zhe wasnât really that bad⦠Itâs already in the past. Why are you bringing it up again?â
âWho asked you to be so chummy with him?â Yin Shaojie sat down, looking at her.
He was annoyed at the thought of how chummy she was with that Yu Zhe.
She would always go to the cafeteria with Yu Zhe and leave him by himself.
Mu Xiaoxiao didnât want to talk about these things with him. Looking at the pastries on the plate, she changed the subject and said, âDidnât I tell you to get strawberry cake? Why isnât it here?â
âThere are no more strawberry cakes,â Yin Shaojie said.
Mu Xiaoxiao pouted. âBut I want themâ¦â
As though Yin Shaojie already knew how she would respond, he laughed, âI have already told the chef to prepare it. Iâll get it for you later.â
âHehe, thanks!â Mu Xiaoxiao pouted and sent him a flying kiss.
After a while, He Qiya came over to them carrying a whole strawberry cake.
âMu Xiaoxiao, this is for you. You like strawberry cakes, right?â
âThanks.â Mu Xiaoxiao smiled as she took it.
âUmâ¦â He Qiya seemed as if she had something to say. She hesitated, looking at her but she was afraid to look at Yin Shaojie beside her.
âIs anything the matter?â Mu Xiaoxiao asked her considerately.
She glanced at Yin Shaojie and made up an excuse to send him away. âHelp me get a drink. I want a hot one.â
âOkay.â Yin Shaojie got up and left.
After Him Shaojie left she relaxed as if a weight were taken off of her.
Mu Xiaoxiao pointed to the position next to her and said, âDonât keep standing there. Sit down. Is there anything you want to tell me?â
âActuallyâ¦â He Qiya sat down and looked at her hesitatingly.
