17: Chapter 16 Too Awkward 17: Chapter 16 Too Awkward However, just as Mu Chen was about to sleep, Long Ying called.
“Hello, how’s it going?”
“Boss, it’s all settled.
Additionally, I have assigned three of my shadows to secretly protect Uncle Wang and the others.”
Shadows, secretly cultivated by Long Ying, no more than seven individuals but each of them terrifyingly powerful.
Even Long Ying once said that combining the strength of six, he wouldn’t be able to defeat the seven within a short period.
This night was destined to be sleepless, a night where Wang Long and Wang Lihua were bound to have endless conversations.
This night, Wang Yuxuan felt something extraordinary; Mu Chen seemed like a mystery, appeared, solved everything, and also provided a sense of safety, almost like the male god in her mind…
Mu Chen was also destined to be sleepless, with too many things to revisit over and over again.
However, the one more sleepless than anyone was Heavenly Wolf.
It seemed as if they had unintentionally offended someone they absolutely shouldn’t have, causing the higher-ups to lose sleep…
The next day, Aunt Wang prepared breakfast early, but after Mu Chen and Wang Yuxuan got up, the two had already left, leaving a note saying that they went to the market to buy groceries and decided to live a simple and happy life, telling Mu Chen not to worry, also reminding him to protect Wang Yuxuan, strengthen their relationship, send her to school, and if Mu Chen really works at Qingcheng International, it’s very close so take more care of little Yuxuan.
Take care in what way?” Mu Chen whimsically mentioned after seeing the note.
Soon, amidst their conversation, they quickly finished breakfast, and Mu Chen really did escort Wang Yuxuan to school, to Tianhai University.
“Damn, she must be a campus belle!
And she’s with this young man?”
“Really with someone out of college?
Being together is one thing, but taking public transport too?”
“My eyes are blinded.”
After they arrived at the bus stop, Mu Chen didn’t even know what had happened as many people started gossiping and making comments.
“Brother Mu Chen, they’re all talking about you,” Wang Yuxuan said giggling.
“Stop teasing, are they blind?
I’m clearly just a poor guy, also taking the bus here.” Mu Chen sighed helplessly.
“Don’t they know there’s a type of person good at hiding?
Obviously rich and charming, yet choosing to hide.”
“I’m just a common citizen, your Brother Mu Chen.
I just know Long Ying, who helped out; actually, I’m no different from you, look, I’m still going to work!”
“Liar, you’re obviously awesome, and you’re just going to work because the Qingcheng International brand attracts all kinds of beauties.”
“I am a pure young man.”
“…” Wang Yuxuan was utterly speechless, having seen shameless, but never this shameless.
Soon, after bickering for a while, they quickly boarded the bus, but as soon as they got on, it immediately became awkward because the bus was too crowded.
“So crowded!” Wang Yuxuan’s expression changed as soon as she got on.
“Come close to me.” Mu Chen led Wang Yuxuan into a corner of the bus.
“Wang Yuxuan naturally hugged onto Mu Chen tightly, her face wearing a happy smile.
“Let me go,” Mu Chen said seriously.
Moreover, with Wang Yuxuan looking very innocent, in everyone else’s eyes, she was like an icy beauty.
But with Mu Chen, she changed 180 degrees, which made Mu Chen feel it didn’t fit the goddess-like aura!
“Alright then,” Mu Chen said helplessly.
“There’s a thief.” Just as Wang Yuxuan was about to continue saying something, she suddenly pointed towards a young man.
Immediately, everyone on the bus turned their gaze towards the young man.
It was indeed not surprising for a pickpocket to take advantage during a crowded scene.
However, the young thief was agile, putting his stolen phone into his pocket seamlessly as soon as Wang Yuxuan’s voice fell, leaving others to see only a calm thief.
