Mu Shini was woken up by the phone ringing. She fumbled for a long time before finding her phone and answered it groggily, "Hello, who’s this?"
"It’s me! Shen Chengcheng! Hurry up and open the door! Didn’t you hear the doorbell?"
A male voice came through the phone.
"Oh, Shen Chengcheng." Mu Shini responded, but three seconds later, she jumped up from the bed, "What? You’re Shen Chengcheng? You want me to open the door?"
"Yes! If you don’t get up now, you’ll be late!" Shen Chengcheng shouted through the phone.
"I’m getting up right now, wait for me!" Mu Shini said, dropping the phone, throwing on an outer layer, and rushed out to open the door. Sure enough, there was Shen Chengcheng’s handsome face.
"Why are you back so early?" Mu Shini asked, somewhat surprised.
His flight was supposed to arrive in the evening.
"Tsk tsk tsk! Mu Shini, can you stop treating me like a woman! Look at you, your hair’s a mess, you haven’t brushed your teeth, washed your face, or even changed your clothes before opening the door for me!"
Shen Chengcheng looked at Mu Shini with disdain, shaking his head and sighing as he criticized her.
"You’re not my man, do I really need to doll up for you?" Mu Shini rolled her eyes lightly at Shen Chengcheng, "I’ll go wash up first."
"Hurry up, I’ll give you half an hour." Shen Chengcheng pushed Mu Shini towards the bathroom.
Mu Shini stood in front of the mirror brushing her teeth, while Shen Chengcheng leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed, "Why did so much happen while I was away for winter break? Why did Li Xiaotian suddenly decide to study abroad?"
"I don’t know either, she suddenly said she was going abroad and then handed me a large sum of money," Mu Shini mumbled while brushing her teeth.
"And what about you? Why did you move out of the Mu Family? That was your home, why did you give it up?" Shen Chengcheng said, frowning.
"Gurgle gurgle——" After rinsing her mouth, Mu Shini wiped the corners of her mouth with a towel and then stepped out.
"I broke up with Ye Shaochen, then he cheated on me with Mu Xuerou. I don’t want to go back to the Mu Family and see Mu Xuerou. It’s as simple as that, do you even need to ask?" Mu Shini said.
"I always said Ye Shaochen was unreliable, being with him was a stain on your life! Back then, you should have chosen me as your decoy instead of him!" Shen Chengcheng said through gritted teeth.
"You? Everyone knows we’re close friends, who’d believe it..." Mu Shini waved her hand, "It’s fine, everything’s sorted now, I’m free as a bird! Now I can focus on my own things!"
"Mu Shini, are you brain-dead! If Mu Xuerou bullies you, you should just slap her! What’s there to remember about sisterhood? She doesn’t even see you as an older sister, and you still tolerate it! And Ye Shaochen, that bastard, dared to mess around with Mu Xuerou behind your back! It’s downright infuriating!"
The tone suddenly shifted as Shen Chengcheng slapped Mu Shini’s forehead, angrily scolding her.
Mu Shini quickly moved his hand away, "Chengcheng, I don’t have money for tuition. Can you lend me some for now? I’ll pay you back once I get a job."
"Don’t worry! I’ll cover all your expenses!"
Shen Chengcheng patted his chest, "I heard about what happened yesterday, why haven’t you told me the truth yet? Who was that rich guy with the Maybach?"
Shen Chengcheng emphasized the word "guy" deliberately.
"You’re a celebrity, what’s it to you to believe those rumors? I just helped that guy recover his wallet," Mu Shini explained, "Don’t ask so many questions, it’s really nothing, just consider it making a new friend!"
