It was just that there were many people in the country who shared the same name.
Hence, the two of them somehow did not recognize each other.
However, the inexplicable sense of familiarity between the two was palpable.
It was only because they had fought many times that neither paid attention to this feeling of familiarity.
After returning from the man-made lake, Mu Huan packed her things and headed home.
“Haven’t you still not gotten through to God Bo? Why don’t you sleep in the dormitory tonight?” Li Meng was afraid that she would overthink when she got back, making her unable to fall asleep again.
Mu Huan looked at her bed and couldn’t help sighing. “I can be so fickle sometimes. Back when I couldn’t sleep in the dormitory, I wanted to do so very badly. But now that I can do it, I just want to go home.”
It was just like how she used to hope that Bo Junyan wouldn’t return home at night and how she used to think that it would be best if he didn’t contact her for half a month. Now, he had been away for only one night and had not contacted her for a day and a night, yet she already felt so upset!
Sigh. It would be great if, for only this time, things could go back to how it was in the past. When one had no one to love, one was the most carefree.
Not knowing how to comfort her, Li Meng could only say, “Xiao Huan, don’t think too much.”
“I’m not thinking too much. Don’t you think I’m already very rational and clear-minded?”
Li Meng thought about it and agreed. She would probably cry if something like this happened to her. Not only did Xiao Huan not cry, but she also managed to understand clearly that this was a scheme. She did not suspect anything and did not misunderstand Bo Junyan.
“It’s just that I can’t control myself and feel a little upset. When a person is in a bad mood, it’s easy for them to lament about some things. That’s why, in this world, the word ‘love’ is the most torturous. It makes one less like oneself. The heartless are the most powerful, and as the saying goes, if Heaven were sentimental, Heaven would also feel sad and old.” Once a person develops feelings for someone, they can no longer be controlled by rationality. Her present situation was the perfect example. Despite knowing that this was all part of someone’s scheme, that someone had gone through such lengths to make Mu Huan feel uncomfortable and to cause a rift between her and Bo Junyan, and that she shouldn’t and wouldn’t fall for it, she was still only human. Even though humans know that they shouldn’t feel upset over some things, they would still be.
He went to see fireworks despite the meticulous preparations she had made at home, then he not only did not return but also did not even call back. She really could not fathom what kind of situation he’d have to be in to not call her, under conditions where he wasn’t in danger!
Especially when Gong Zeye knew about it.
Why couldn’t he reveal to her something that Gong Zeye knew about so that she wouldn’t let her imagination run wild?
Seeing her like this, Li Meng could not help but hug her, wanting to give comfort. “Xiao Huan…”
“I’m fine. I’m just sighing a little. If I didn’t sigh at all and didn’t feel uncomfortable, even a little, that’s as much as saying I’m only pretending to like Bo Junyan,” Mu Huan said with a smile.
“Do you really not want to stay in the dormitory?”
“I’d rather not. It’s easy to go from frugal to extravagant. It’s hard to go from extravagant to frugal. I’m used to having my big bed and eating my delicacies. I can’t sleep well on this hard bed, and I can’t eat breakfast here either,” Mu Huan said with a smile.
Li Meng knew that she was looking for an excuse. She knew that Mu Huan wanted to go home because she still wanted to wait for Bao Junyan to return tonight.
“Then you don’t have to study tonight. Go to sleep. When you can’t sleep, play games and relax. If you want to play games, you can contact me at any time. I’m always here.”
