Mu Xiaoxiao glared at him and said, âAre you kidding me? How can you not get it? Donât you spend all your time thinking about⦠that kind of thing? Donât you boys think about that kind of thing all the time? How can you not get it!â
Yin Shaojie shrugged his shoulders and said innocently, âWhat are you talking about? What kind of thing is that? Can you make yourself clear? You obviously werenât explaining it clearly, so how do you expect me to understand what you are saying? Canât you just be more direct about it?â
âYou⦠Youâ¦â Mu Xiaoxiao pointed at him. He was going to be the death of her!
âYou already know it anyways! Iâm not talking about it anymore! Iâm starving, and I want to eat! Iâm not talking to you anymore!â
Mu Xiaoxiao didnât want to argue with him anymore, so she simply picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
Because she had always been eating at five-star restaurants, she was getting tired of it and suddenly had a craving for spicy food today, so she asked him to order from a Hunan cuisine restaurant.
Mu Xiaoxiao picked a piece of poached sliced fish in chili oil and couldnât help but exclaim, âChinaâs delicacies are still the best! I havenât eaten it in a long time. Itâs really delicious!â
Though spicy food made her feel high, after eating a few mouthfuls, Mu Xiaoxiao couldnât stand it and started sniffing.
Yin Shaojie cast a glance at her, then turned around, stood up, and walked over the fridge to get a bottle of mineral water. Then, he unscrewed the cap and handed it to her.
âThanks,â Mu Xiaoxiao took it and gulped down the water.
Yin Shaojie seemed displeased as he stared at her and said, âSo what were you talking to him about when you were talking about his sister?â
Mu Xiaoxiao was chewing the boiled beef in her mouth as she said unclearly, âWell, I was just telling him that I will help him find her. Oh yeah, you gotta help, okay? I canât do much by myself, so I have to count on you. Although Annie hasnât gotten into any trouble yet, Iâm still worried about her.â
When she said it herself, she thought that it was quite surprising.
A pretty girl like Annie coming to a foreign country, how did she not get into trouble?
Itâs not that she wanted to curse Annie, but Annie was often caught up in problems with boys back in the States.
Mu Xiaoxiao felt more worried the more she thought about it. She started to eat faster as well, planning to make a phone call to Song Shijun after eating to ask him for help finding Annie.
Yin Shaojie frowned and stared at her. âSlow down. Also, arenât you afraid of getting a stomach ache at night if you eat so much spicy food?â
âPooh! Are you cursing me?â Mu Xiaoxiao glared at him, and she finished her meal in a few mouthfuls.
She put down the chopsticks, quickly went to get her phone, and called Song Shijun.
âShijun, I am looking for you for helpâ¦â
Then, she explained the matter of finding Annie to Song Shijun.
âIs there a photo?â Song Shijun asked.
Mu Xiaoxiao sat cross-legged on the sofa and nodded. âYes! Gimme a minute. Iâll go find it, and Iâll send it to you later.â
âOkay.â
Mu Xiaoxiao hung up the phone and began to search through the photos in her phone, but her phone was bought before she returned to China. The photos she had taken with Annie before were saved on the computer in her home in the States, so it wasnât on her phone.
âWhat should I doâ¦â Mu Xiaoxiao was worried.
Yin Shaojie had also finished his meal. After quickly clearing up the garbage, he walked over to sit next to her and snatched away her phone in one swoop.
âItâs very late. Go take a shower and go to sleep. You can talk again tomorrow.â
âButâ¦â Mu Xiaoxiao reached out her hand trying to snatch back the phone.
Yin Shaojie said, âI have a way to find people even without photos. Does that make you feel better now?â
