"Pretty polite, huh? Bringing a gift when you visit."
Xu Musen joked with a smile.
Yao Mingyue placed the bag behind her with a look of justified indifference, "Tch, why would I bring a gift to my own ho?"
She set the bag aside and skillfully plopped herself down opposite Xu Musen.
The dishes today were simple, very holy, but all ones that Yao Mingyue liked.
In front of Xu Musen, she didn't bother with any ladylike eating etiquette and often snatched food from his chopsticks whenever he reached for a dish.
It seed the food Xu Musen picked tasted the best.
"Aren't there plenty of dishes? Why fight over mine?"
"Didn't soone also snatch my sausage to eat today?"
Yao Mingyue showcased her little canines, her lips glistening with oil, adding a touch more allure.
Xu Musen shook his head with a laugh; this was a case of snatching food at the tiger's mouth.
"Xu Musen."
"Hmm?"
Yao Mingyue lifted her gaze, "I still want to visit our high school."
"Didn't we look around this afternoon? It's all fenced off now."
"But what if I really want to go?"
Yao Mingyue pouted, still being unreasonable.
Xu Musen seriously considered it, "Then I'll have the company donate a building to our alma mater, maybe the school will do this favor."
Yao Mingyue pursed her lips, "Soone who wouldn't even buy a two-dollar sausage is willing to donate a building to the school?"
Xu Musen smiled, "It's all for my wife's funds; if not for my wife, then who? Anyway, you can repay later."
"Tch, such a smooth talker..."
Yao Mingyue felt her heart soften; even though she knew Xu Musen said it intentionally, words like these are what girls love to hear.
She didn't beat around the bush any longer.
Picking up the bag beside her, she tilted her white neck, "You kids and your mischief won't work; us good students have our ways."
With that, Yao Mingyue pulled out a garnt with a white and blue the from the bag, slowly unfolding it.
That familiar high school uniform.
Yao Mingyue's eyes sparkled, "Tomorrow, we'll wear our uniforms and go to school with the students!"
Xu Musen looked at her, a barely detectable smile playing at his lips.
"We're about to graduate from university, aren't you worried about being recognized by the security?"
Yao Mingyue stomped her foot, "What do you an? Are you saying I'm old? This girl is forever eighteen!"
Yao Mingyue lifted her stunning face; her fair skin as pink as a peach freshly soaked in warm water.
Even eighteen-year-olds would be envious.
"I'm worried about what would happen if I get recognized."
Xu Musen pointed at himself.
Yao Mingyue examined him closely, and though she rarely complinted him directly, she couldn't deny that Xu Musen had always been very handso.
Especially now, with his healthy complexion, well-defined features, and his smile always giving off a sunny, warm feeling.
Those eyes were incredibly clear and deep, containing maturity beyond his years while still retaining youthful vigor.
Yao Mingyue's previous caution wasn't without reason; indeed, he had all the external traits that could easily stir up flirtations.
"As for you..."
Yao Mingyue pulled back her slightly awestruck gaze and cleared her throat, "Though you're not as good-looking as this beauty, you're average, still passing."
Xu Musen chuckled, "What would it hurt if you just called handso once?"
"Ugh, narcissist."
Yao Mingyue got right in front of him, her almond eyes glinting with anticipation, "How's my idea? Impressive, right?"
"Impressive, impressive, why didn't I think of that."
"Tch, if it were Nuannuan, you would've thought of it..." Yao Mingyue said sourly, full of resentnt, "Where's your uniform?"
"It should still be in the wardrobe, why don't you go help find it?"
Xu Musen glanced in the direction of his room with a smile.
"You're so lazy..."
Yao Mingyue huffed, yet her steps lightly bounced as she went to push open Xu Musen's room door.
The mont she opened the door, she saw the familiar blue and white uniform already pressed neatly, hanging on the balcony, gently swaying in the night breeze.
Yao Mingyue froze; she could even see the handwriting she left on it back in the day.
So... he had already thought of it...
Xu Musen stood behind her, watching her dazed look with a soft chuckle, "I'm not that dumb, right?"
Yao Mingyue had realized by now why he kept teasing her earlier and kept wearing that sly grin.
Turns out, he had been thinking about it all along.
"Did you think about this all along..."
Yao Mingyue felt warmth spread through her heart; her words beca infused with warmth, and her eyes turned red and moist.
She was elated that her concerns were genuinely being thought about by him.
"We're childhood friends; we should have so level of connection, right?"
Xu Musen smiled, gently holding her cheeks, "I told you before, anything you said, wanted, I rember. So, trust your husband, okay?"
Yao Mingyue felt completely soft; her eyes wet, but her heart felt like it was subrged in honey. She turned around and dove into his embrace.
Xu Musen held her tightly, gently stroking her head, and whispered softly in her ear.
"Alright..."
Just like every day they spent together, whether it was happiness, misunderstandings, sulking, or silent fights...
But co nightti, Xu Musen always softly spoke to her at her ear.
"Tomorrow, we'll go to school together."
