Watching them walk away, Chen Shunuo and the other two gathered together, "Mu Yu seems quite familiar with him."
"While they were on the boat, they climbed aboard together from the sea."
"Could it be that after facing adversity together, they’ve beco close friends?"
"It’s not impossible."
Then the three of them exchanged silent glances.
On the other side.
Qi Muyu and Fei Yan moved to a secluded, quiet spot and she straightforwardly asked, "I didn’t get to ask you that night, were those two people targeting you?"
Fei Yan, caught off guard by her directness, hesitated before responding, "It’s very likely."
"What do you an it’s very likely? Aren’t you sure whether they were after you?"
The young man seriously nodded, "I have no reason to lie to you, I can’t identify any suspects."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"I haven’t offended anyone, and there’s nobody like that in my family either."
"I’ll find out, you..."
"Oh, I’m fine, thanks for saving that day."
Fei Yan looked at Qi Muyu for a long while before asking, "Do you need any help?"
"I don’t need anything," Qi Muyu, watching the young man in front of her, smiled and shook her head.
"I’m here in Deep City."
Qi Muyu was taken aback, then smiled and nodded, "I know."
"You..." Fei Yan wanted to say sothing else, but Qi Muyu’s phone went off insistently.
Qi Muyu saw the display, raised an eyebrow, and answered, "I’ve arrived."
"What are you dawdling for? Are you with Fei Yan?"
"Didn’t you already see?"
With that big cara at the entrance, their every move had long been recorded.
"Are you done talking?"
"I’m going in now."
Qi Muyu ended the call and looked at Fei Yan.
Fei Yan said, "Let’s go in together."
Qi Muyu nodded.
The two appeared together and instantly attracted a large amount of attention.
Qi Muyu looked at the crowd, which could be described as "a sea of people," and was speechless, "The Zhu Family really does spoil her."
"In this generation of the Zhu Family, she’s the only girl."
Not just the Zhu Family, even the relatives close to the Zhu Family all had boys, and they took turns spoiling her. It was quite remarkable that she hadn’t been spoiled rotten.
Even though Zhu Jinhuan seed unreasonable on the surface, she was still passable when it ca to serious matters.
Qi Muyu couldn’t help but glance at him, "Do you have a feud with the Zhu Family? I see her hiding every ti she sees you."
"None."
"Then you must have bullied her before."
"Not that either."
"... Then how did you et?" Qi Muyu asked curiously.
"After arriving in Deep City, I attended several banquets, and she was there."
As for their interaction, there was none at all.
It was just Zhu Jinhuan catching a glimpse of so disillusioning scenes, and then she avoided him whenever she saw him.
Really, the only tis they had been close were this ti and on the boat.
Zhu Jinhuan initially didn’t want to co over because Fei Yan was with Qi Muyu.
But she gritted her teeth and ca forward anyway.
She reached out to Qi Muyu, "Where’s my gift?"
Qi Muyu handed over the gift she had prepared.
Zhu Jinhuan opened it to find a pair of exquisite Red Jade earrings, small and beautiful!
She loved them at first sight!
But in front of Qi Muyu, she still showed so dissatisfaction, "Don’t think that by giving this, I’ll forgive your tardiness."
Qi Muyu speechlessly replied, "Are there even rules like that at your birthday party?"
"My birthday, my rules."
"Indulging you," Qi Muyu rolled her eyes at her, "Next ti it’s my birthday, rember to return the favor double."
"What? You dare to ask for a birthday gift?"
"So, will you give it?"
"What do you want?" Zhu Jinhuan asked fiercely.
"Isn’t it up to your own heart?"
"I don’t even know what you like." She had never chosen gifts for anyone before.
"Figure it out yourself," Qi Muyu pointed behind her, "Go on, they seem to be looking for you."
"Don’t you sneak away," Zhu Jinhuan, holding her sparkly dress, ran toward her family’s direction, creating a lively scene!
Qi Muyu couldn’t help but chuckle.
Fei Yan, watching from the side, found the girls’ friendship a bit strange and incomprehensible.
Noticing the gaze from beside her, Qi Muyu looked up at him.
"Let’s exchange contact information."
"..."
Qi Muyu silently took out her phone and added him.
Looking at the added WeChat ID, Fei Yan felt a burst of joy.
"It’s noisy here, let’s move over there."
Fei Yan pointed to a quieter spot.
"Okay."
As the two walked over, many eyes were on them.
Qi Muyu’s gaze swept from side to side, seemingly on guard.
"I won’t let what happened that day happen again."
Qi Muyu laughed upon hearing this, "Can you guarantee others won’t co looking for trouble?"
Fei Yan looked down, "I will protect you by your side."
"Ah?" Qi Muyu shook her head, "I don’t need your protection."
It’s not anyone’s duty to do so, even though he might rember that she once saved him and wanted to repay the favor, but she didn’t want to accept help from strangers.
Owing favors is troubleso.
Fei Yan just looked at her silently.
Half an hour later, Zhu Jinhuan ran back, babbling a whole lot in front of Qi Muyu.
Fei Yan had left when Zhu Jinhuan arrived.
"Are you staying here for the whole vacation?"
"Most likely."
"You study in Shen City?"
"Didn’t you have soone check?" Qi Muyu glanced at her.
"I didn’t check; I just asked around."
"Isn’t that the sa thing?"
"What did you and Fei Yan talk about? You two seem to get along well; it’s not like you’re really thinking about dating him, right?" Her tone was as if she was catching a cheater.
Qi Muyu calmly said, "That’s my private matter."
"Hmph."
Zhu Jinhuan huffed and said, "It’s not like I’m idle enough to bother about your private matters."
Seeing that it was about ti to leave, Qi Muyu said, "We should go."
"There are still events going on, why are you leaving?"
"I don’t like too many people."
"Today is my birthday!" Zhu Jinhuan emphasized.
Qi Muyu said, "Happy birthday to you."
"Who, who asked you to say that..." Zhu Jinhuan awkwardly said, "I just want everyone to stay and accompany ."
"Oh."
"Are you going or not? I will invite Chen Jifeng and the others; they will co along, and you can make more friends. They are from Guang City; it might be convenient for family business later." Zhu Jinhuan knew that the young people who ca tonight wanted to use her status to connect with people around her.
These things, they had seen them growing up.
Qi Muyu asked again, "Is Fei Yan going?"
Zhu Jinhuan’s eyes widened, and she said through gritted teeth, "I will invite him."
Qi Muyu followed up, "I didn’t an that."
"If he goes, you must go. That’s decided then, I’ll go arrange," Zhu Jinhuan rushed off to arrange the rest of the events.
Qi Muyu was sowhat helpless; she just wanted to confirm whether Fei Yan would be there or not. If he was going, she wouldn’t go, but the lady misunderstood.
