Chapter 308: The Younger Sister Belongs to Everyone
Upon reading this, his voice rose: "Fourteen-year-old B Da youth class?!"
Several people nearby immediately gathered, staring at his screen, involuntarily sucking in a breath of cold air, their fingertips swiftly swiping across the screen.
They repeatedly checked the information about the two, constantly muttering "Unbelievable" and "Is this for real?"
B Da, as a top domestic institution, has an frighteningly high admission cutoff; ordinary people who study diligently for twelve years may still not be able to enter.
These two became youth-class students at fourteen, simply extraordinary talent to an unbelievable degree.
"Awesome, are they gods? What do they do now? Why do they hardly ever appear in the circle?" someone asked, full of curiosity.
Most scions of wealthy families in the circle are active; even if not in C Shi, they usually leave traces of business collaborations or social activities.
But this pair of twins from the Mu Family are like invisible people; aside from their early experiences, their later whereabouts are a complete mystery.
"There's little information online; we can't find their current status at all, only knowing they're usually not in C Shi, with no details on what they do."
Someone muttered, swiftly swiping the screen, trying to find more clues.
Yet they only saw a few early campus reports, not even a clear photo.
"But I feel the voice is a little familiar," someone said, furrowing their brow in recollection, yet they just couldn't recall where they'd heard it.
"……"
The discussion gradually faded, the lights in the auditorium suddenly brightened, and the coming-of-age ceremony officially began.
The parents of each class took their seats; leaders and the principal took turns giving speeches, the lengthy official remarks making many feel weary.
Until Mu Xi stepped onto the podium in a white suit, at which point the audience below burst into unified applause.
Many of the previously listless students instantly perked up.
Mu Yichi was happily holding up his phone to take pictures, aiming at Mu Xi on stage, and couldn't help but mutter: "Xi Xi was so cute as a kid; now she's just a cold face, like she's owed money by someone."
While saying that, he deliberately zoomed in, giving Mu Xi's expressionless face a close-up.
Song Lujing planned to wait for a moment alone with Mu Xi to tattle on her.
Mu Youyu also held up her phone, seriously filming her second older brother; hearing that, she tilted her head and earnestly rebutted: "I don't see it; second older brother is also quite handsome now, both good-looking and capable."
Jiang Liangjin laughed, helping her steady the phone.
Mu Xi's speech was concise, with no extra pleasantries.
After great effort to disperse, Mu Youyu pulled Jiang Liangjin up to rise, when a bouquet was thrust into her arms.
She lifted her gaze to see Mu Xianqi standing before her, a smile playing at his lips, his eyes full of indulgence.
"Xianqi big brother," she called sweetly, her gaze unintentionally sweeping behind him, "Has Analects big brother not come?"
Mu Xianqi feigned hurt, "Always thinking of A Xue, you really wound a brother's heart."
Mu Youyu immediately shook his arm, softly coaxing, "Nowhere, I miss you too. Didn't you bring flowers for second older brother and them?"
Mu Xianqi raised an eyebrow, tone teasing, "Do they still lack flowers from little girls?"
Mu Yichi poked Mu Yichen's arm, muttering, "I said we should bring a bouquet; Xi Xi didn't want it, Youbao did, but you insisted we didn't need any—now it's fine, this person snatched the initiative."
Mu Yichen ordered: "Leave right now and go buy."
Mu Yichi immediately brightened, turning to the low‑presence assistant behind him and said: "Go buy a few bouquets."
The assistant assented.
Mu Xi smiled as she walked over to the crowd, ruffling her sister's hair, then looked at Jiang Liangjin: "The ceremony's over; do you want to go somewhere to hang out?"
Mu Youyu looked at Jiang Liangjin, who replied: "Watch you."
She said: "Watch you!"
Song Lujing resignedly said, "Then let's play at school; there are quite a few activities set up."
Mu Xianqi smoothly pulled his sister toward himself, "Sure."
Mu Yichi grew displeased, stepped forward, reaching to pull the sister over, tone discontent: "What are you doing? The sister belongs to everyone."
Mu Yichen also stepped half a pace forward, standing beside him, agreeing: "Right."
Compared to Jiang Liangjin, the sister's childhood friend who grew up with her, they are more wary of Mu Xianqi.
Mu Xianqi said in a disdainful tone, "You two, I don't even want to judge—you don't reply to messages, don't answer calls, can't be found when there's family business, and now you have the nerve to vie with me for the sister."
Mu Yichi interrupted: "Then don't judge; nobody's forcing you to speak, just look after yourself."
Mu Yichen: "Mm, look after yourself."
Mu Xianqi: "……"
Jiang Liangjin thoughtfully placed these three after Song Huaiyu.
Yet his expression remained unchanged; he merely tugged gently at Mu Youyu's hand, signaling her not to be disturbed by the quarrel.
Seeing her three brothers' odd looks, while others were still watching the show, Mu Youyu stepped between them and said, "Stop arguing, stop arguing."
The three readily obliged and fell silent.
The surrounding students watched this scene and couldn't help whispering: "Miss Mu is just too spoiled—several brothers circling her, even fighting over her, and Young Master Jiang treats her so well, never leaving her side."
"That's right—the Jiang Family has only this heir; he's cold to everyone, except Miss Mu, who's different."
"Why aren't they arguing? I love to watch."
"Just what identities do those two have, anyway?"
"……"
Han Mo led a man and a woman forward; the woman was gentle and pretty, with a tranquil demeanor, the man refined and handsome—clearly a harmonious family.
He waved his hand, saying, "Xi bro, Jing bro, I'm heading home with my parents first!"
Mu Xi paused, gave a light nod, and politely greeted: "Uncle, Auntie, hello."
Song Lujing also nodded, with a warm smile: "Uncle, Auntie, hello."
Han's mother covered her mouth, laughing uncontrollably, her eyes darting between Mu Xi and Song Lujing, full of praise: "Oh dear, these must be the two good brothers you mentioned—I've long heard about your deeds."
"At such a young age you got recommended to a top university—far better than my lazy, gluttonous son; from now on you should bring our Han Mo along more often."
Han Mo saw his mother start nagging again, and hurriedly grabbed her arm, wearing a helpless expression, "Mom, stop it, when have I ever been lazy and fond of eating... bye-bye-bye-bye, see you next semester!"
Han's father snatched his mother's other hand, "What are you saying about your mom? She's just speaking the truth."
Saying that, he was half-pulled, half-dragged by Han Mo and quickly walked away.
Mu Xi looked at the backs of his friends' parents and couldn't help but reveal a hint of a peculiar Expression.
He came from a wealthy family; his parents had never lacked anything for him since childhood, and when he was seven or eight, they simply dropped everything and went off to travel and enjoy themselves.
As the youngest child of the Song and Mu families aside from his sister Mu Xin and Song Lujing, Mu Xi was doted on by a host of older brothers, and his own brother would give him anything he wanted.
He lacked no love, and he bore no resentment toward his parents for not being with him.
If one were to say he had any special feelings toward them, it was mostly regret that his parents had missed his sister's childhood and hadn't watched her grow up bit by bit.
