Yin Shaojie carried her and walked out of the classroom.
Mu Xiaoxiao remembered the text message and asked by his ear, “Hey. Was she the one who sent the message last night, the one about telling you to pick her up at the airport? When did you become so close with her?”
Why did it seem like there was so much jealousy in her tone?
Although the Su family wasn’t one of the Big Four Families, it was still a famous family nonetheless. They were also very influential. It could be said that they were second only to the Big Four Families, but the Su family didn’t come from City A and had only moved here after some time.
Thus, Mu Xiaoxiao and the gang became acquainted with Su Lin only when they were in elementary school, so they weren’t too close with each other.
Mu Xiaoxiao and Su Lin seemed incompatible from birth. When they were young, they were like sworn enemies. They would clash and quarrel almost every time they met.
However, they were still kids then. Quarreling among kids didn’t seem like a big deal to the adults. Some of them had even laughed it off, saying that they would probably become friends when they grew up.
After going to the States for these past few years, Mu Xiaoxiao had almost forgotten that Su Lin even existed.
Even after her return to China, she had never once thought about her.
So when Su Lin suddenly appeared, and in such an unpleasant manner, her animosity toward Su Lin from when she was younger surfaced again.
In any case, she just didn’t like her. She hated her!
Listening to her childlike complaints, Yin Shaojie couldn’t help but smirk and say deliberately, “Since a particular someone went away for four years, leaving me in China without even being the least bit concerned about me, I had no choice but to go out with other girls.”
“Hey!” Mu Xiaoxiao smacked his head irritatedly.
He clearly knew that Su Lin had been her enemy since they were young.
Yin Shaojie glared at her and pretended to threaten her, “Hit me again and I will drop you.”
“You dare?” Mu Xiaoxiao scoffed, wrapping her arms tightly around his neck as though she was going to strangle him.
Yin Shaojie sighed and said, “You beat me every time you get angry. Su Lin was right. Your temper is getting worse.”
“She said this about me?” Mu Xiaoxiao huffed, “Who’s the one with the bad temper? I’m not even close with her. On what basis could she say this about me? As if she knows me!”
Not everyone would get the same treatment from her.
Mu Xiaoxiao stared at the back of his head. It was only because it was him that she would act so impudently. It was because this was how they had always acted around each other ever since they were kids. They didn’t need to be put up a facade or to withhold their true feelings from each other.
She liked the way they were and she had no intention of changing it.
Even if she hit him it would only be an act, and she wouldn’t really intend to hurt him.
This was how they had always gotten along with each other ever since they were kids. One minute, they would be quarreling and the next minute, they would make up with each other lovingly again.
Yin Shaojie laughed and said, “Indeed, she doesn’t know you well. You don’t have a huge temper. You’re barbaric.”
Mu Xiaoxiao was still happy listening to him up until the last part. Her arms tightened around him. “What did you say? Yin Shaojie, I beg your pardon!”
“Let me finish. Barbaric means to have a wild personality, and it can be pretty cute,” Yin Shaojie quickly explained.
It was still acceptable, so Mu Xiaoxiao let him off.
“At least you’re not stupid.”
The girl had been completely oblivious to how he had just escaped her questioning about the earlier matter.
It was only a short distance to begin with.
Although Yin Shaojie was carrying Mu Xiaoxiao, Yin Shaojie was fleet-footed like usual, as though there was only a feather on his back.
