Chapter 366: I've Been Waiting for You for Days

Luwei came to her senses, turned her head in surprise toward Mu Youyu, her eyes excited.

Good heavens!! She actually became the temporary playmate of the princess!!

Mu Youyu also hadn't expected that Qing An had this intention; she glanced at him, "Qing An gege, you……"

Qing An wore an innocent look, "What's wrong? Having a girl your age here to talk with isn't bad, is it?"

Jiang Liangjin lowered her eyes silently, a strange feeling went away then came back in her heart.

Then she thought, no matter what, the time she spent accompanying Youbao was the longest, and she remained silent.

Mu Youyu laughed and cried, "Then you also can't……"

"It's fine, it's fine," Luwei hastily waved her hands, a smile of surprised honor on her face, "Being able to chat with Princess Mingxi is my honor!"

Qing An nodded satisfactorily, "That's right, then you chat, I'll go find Axie to take care of something."

Having said that, he turned and left.

Qing Wei followed behind him; when passing Luwei, his steps paused inexplicably, his gaze lingered on her face for a second.

Luwei felt creeped out by his stare, yet she heard him say lightly, "Since you're a guest invited by Qing An, treat her well."

"……Yes."

Qing Wei withdrew his gaze and strode away.

Only after seeing him completely disappear from sight did Luwei let out a long breath, patting her chest and muttering softly, "Too scary……"

Mu Youyu looked at her like that and couldn't help laughing to soothe her, "Qing Wei gege isn't that scary."

"That's just what you think!" Luwei lowered her voice, face showing awe, "Qing Wei dianxia in M Guo's noble circles is famous as a cold-faced Yama, and Qing An dianxia…… never mind, never mind, I daren't say."

Mu Youyu recalled Qing Wei's gaze toward Luwei just now…… she hadn't noticed.

But every time he looked at her, his gaze was completely like an older brother's, having nothing to do with being scary.

"However," Luwei shifted the conversation, her face showing a bit of gossip, "When he looked at me just now, he didn't seem as terrifying as the rumors…… just glanced and left."

Mu Youyu deliberately teased her, "How about it, do you still want him to glance a few more times?"

Luwei waved her hands repeatedly, "No no no! I really don't want that, his gaze—if I looked a few more times my heart couldn't take it……"

The two laughed together; Jiang Liangjin couldn't get a word in, so she silently turned and went to the side of the table to fetch the fruit platter.

In the nearby resting area, Song Yusui leaned against the chair, giving a half-smile as she stared at Song Lujing, "What are you doing staring at someone all the time—have you taken a liking to her?"

Song Lujing was spacing out looking at his sister; hearing that, he snapped back to attention and gave him a speechless look.

"I'm just looking at my sister, okay? You don't have to be like that—I'm still a minor."

Mu Xi listened to the two's pointless conversation, completely uninterested in joining in, and silently walked away.

Song Yusui raised her eyebrows, strolled over slowly, reaching out to press his hair, "Besides, your birthday's coming up soon—do you have someone you like, little Jing?"

Song Lujing gave a cold snort, deliberately not dodging, lifted his eyes to meet his gaze, "I'm giving it to you—I like you."

Song Yusui's expression stiffened, she quickly withdrew her hand hanging in midair, and turned and left.

Just as Song Yan was about to step forward to talk to Song Lujing, he decisively turned around and followed Song Yusui as she left.

After playing in M Guo for two days, Mu Youyu never heard any news about the killer; the surroundings were utterly peaceful, as if that day's crisis had never happened.

She vaguely sensed that everyone was deliberately keeping something from her, yet she didn't press further.

Until the afternoon of the next day, an unexpected visitor arrived at the garden.

He appeared here silently, without prior notice or escort.

Dressed in a black tailcoat, his hem dusty from travel, he was clearly rushing here in haste.

The guards saw his green eyes and blond hair, then noticed the exclusive insignia on his lapel; instantly they lost all expression and bowed to let him through.

At that moment, Mu Youyu was sitting on the white wicker chair in the garden, scrolling her phone screen, leisurely passing the time.

Song Lujing and Song Yan sat opposite each other, the atmosphere strange.

The two had just quarreled over some matter due to differing views, and now they were in a cold war.

Qing An lay on another wicker chair, eyes closed, resting.

Mu Youyu caught a familiar figure in her peripheral vision, put away her phone, and sprang up delighted, "Ling gege! How did you come over? You didn't even say a word!"

Jun Chenling walked over, first giving a slight nod to Song Yan and Song Lujing, then reached out to ruffle her sister's hair, "I came to see you."

Hearing that familiar voice, Qing An sat up from the wicker chair and complained, "Why are you so slow? I've been waiting for you for days."

Jun Chenling glanced at him, "You think everyone's as idle as you? There's a pile of things to handle in Y Guo, I rushed over overnight."

Qing An said lightly, "Oh, bad timing for you—Axie is currently in there discussing matters with my brother and them."

Jun Chenling's expression unchanged, "He and I have talked about it."

Mu Youyu pulled him to sit down and handed him a small cake, "Ling gege, this is delicious."

Jun Chenling took it, but didn't rush to eat, merely studying her carefully, "How have you been these days? Anywhere uncomfortable?"

Mu Youyu knew what he was asking, shook her head, "It's been fine for a while."

"All right then." Jun Chenling didn't ask further, lowered his head and took a bite of the cake.

Qing An watched him, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.

Heh, men, still not coming.
