“As I’ve said earlier, I just need to grab hold of his heart,” Mu Huan said.
“Do you think you can grasp this man’s heart just by willing it to happen?” Wu Xingye asked instinctively.
“Wu Xingye, what are you saying?!” Li Meng pinched Wu Xingye hard. Was he dumb or what?!
“Xingye is right. It’s useless for anyone to grasp a man’s heart when his feelings are changing. Besides, Bo Junyan doesn’t actually have that much feeling for me. I’m really only saying that I have to hurry. In truth, I don’t have much hope, so anything I do might end up useless. I can only say that I’ll take things one step at a time, and I’ll take whatever comes my way.” Actually, Mu Huan felt that if a person liked her, there was no need for her to hold on to him. If a person didn’t like her, it would be useless even if she tried her best. Hence, there was really nothing she could do about it.
As long as she refrained from behaving like she did last night where she had almost driven Bo Junyan away in a fit of pain, she would be fine.
“Alright, let’s not think about this anymore. Let’s eat! Let’s eat!” Li Meng said.
“Okay, let’s eat!” Mu Huan didn’t want to let her worries run wild. Bo Junyan was such a big-hearted person, and he had already made so many adjustments for her. There was no need for her to think too much.
But for some reason, she had a bad premonition.
At the Bo residence in the evening.
“Cousin, aren’t you being too much?! How dare you chase us away!” Huo Yuqi said angrily.
“Your room needs to be redecorated. You have to move into the other rooms at my home.”
“Cousin, do you think I’m stupid?!” What did he mean by ‘changing rooms’?! There were clearly two different homes, yet he kept on saying that they were one!
“Well, aren’t you stupid?” Bo Junyan’s gaze darkened.
“Cousin!” Huo Yuqi was so angry that her eyes turned red.
At the thought of what Mu Huan had told him, Bo Junyan said, “It’s impossible between me and Ling Wei. From now on, don’t spout nonsense in front of your sister-in-law. If it’s not for anything important, don’t come and visit her.”
“Cousin, how can you do this to me?! I’m your biological cousin! The only one you could call a sister!”
“If you weren’t related to me by blood, do you think you’d still be fine right now?” Bo Junyan paused for a moment before continuing, “I’ve found a few teachers for you and they’ll all be staying next door. The schedule will be given to you tomorrow. From now on, you have to study well. I’ll check in with them regularly. If you fail, I will confiscate your card.”
It was precisely because she had too much free time that she could keep speaking nonsense in front of his wife.
“I don’t want this! I’m not a high school student! I’m already in university!” Huo Yuqi was about to explode.
Not only did her cousin want to chase her away, but he had also arranged so many courses for her!
“You’re such a brainless person that you’re no better than a grade-schooler. From now on, I don’t want to hear you complaining about your studies.”
“Ah…!” Huo Yuqi stomped her feet in anger.
Upstairs…
Ling Wei, who was packing her things, received a call from Old Master.
“I heard that Junyan wants you to move in next door and stay away from you.”
“Yes.”
“Seems like we have underestimated that girl,” the old man said.
“It’s not that we’ve underestimated Mu Huan but that we’ve underestimated Junyan’s heart. He has more feelings for Mu Huan than you’ve realized.”
“You’ve hesitated for too long.”
“Yes.” The things that she had spent so much effort to get were too valuable to be abandoned.
“But you don’t have to worry too much. You have such deep feelings for Junyan.” The old man’s call was actually to comfort her.
“I’m not worried. Isn’t this rather interesting?”
