âOh, Great Mistress Mu, Iâve just come back from lunch outside and was about to go to the Student Union building. How would I know where Shaojie has gone? Wait, thatâs weird, youâre always with him, so how would I know where he is if you donât know?â
Song Shijun only realized that Mu Xiaoxiao looked off.
âWhatâs wrong, Xiaoxiao? Did the two of you fight?â
Mu Xiaoxiao kept silent. The answer was obvious.
However, Song Shijun laughed instead. âYoung Master Jie must have gone to settle some business, so heâll be looking for you very soon. How can he bear to fight with you?â
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoxiao looked like she wanted to cry. Her eyes reddened as she choked out, âItâs different this timeâ¦â
Yin Shaojie was really angry this time.
Everyone knew how much Yin Shaojie cared about her and how unwilling he was to get into a fight with her.
However, it was also because of this that Yin Shaojieâs anger was out of control.
Mu Xiaoxiaoâs emotions were in a mess and she was at a loss of what to do.
She knew that she was at fault, but it did not warrant such harsh treatment. It was only a little mistakeâ . How did things become like this?
If she could not find Yin Shaojie⦠Suddenly, a slight panic overcame her.
If Yin Shaojie were to become indefinitely angry at her and refuse to see her, what would she do?
What should have been a beautiful birthday would become her most painful memory.
No, she didnât want this to happen!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Mu Xiaoxiao wiped her tears away and swore that she would find Yin Shaojie before her birthday tomorrow!
She would definitely find him even if she had to flip the entirety of City A upside down!
âOh yeah, Xiaoxiao, isnât it your birthday tomorrow? Shaojie might simply be hiding to prepare a surprise for you. He hasnât been to school since yesterday and it must be because heâs planning a surprise for you, so donât worry.â Song Shijun tried hard to come up with an excuse to comfort her.
However, these supposedly comforting words only caused her to feel even sadder.
A surprise for her birthdayâ¦
Contrary to what he might expect, she had actually prepared such a wonderful surprise for him. It took so long to prepare but all her efforts were going to be in vain.
And this surprise made her lie so much to him too.
If she knew that this was going to happen, she would never have lied. Lying was tiring to her too!
Seeing that she was silent, Song Shijun glanced at her again.
He smiled bitterly and pointed to the collar she was still grasping. âUm⦠Xiaoxiao, can you let go of me?â
Talking like this was really awkward.
Furthermore, they were right outside the Student Union. It would be embarrassing if others were to see him like this.
Mu Xiaoxiao only then realized that she was still grabbing him and let go hastily.
However, she grabbed him again in the next second.
Song Shijun was about to relax when he felt his neck tighten. He howled in anguish, âXiaoxiao, what are you playing at?â
Couldnât she converse normally?
Additionally, their height difference meant that Mu Xiaoxiao was pulling him down when she grabbed his collar. It was really uncomfortable for him.
However, because it was her, he didnât feel right to shake her off with brute force.
Mu Xiaoxiao glared at him and said, âYou might know where he is. Take me to look for him. If you canât find himâ¦â
She left her threat hanging.
âI really donât know where he is. I would definitely tell you if I did,â Song Shijun said.
