Chapter 378: with translation of chapter title
Zhu Zhou noticed his gaze, lifted their eyes, met his gaze, 'older brother Song Yan, older brother Song hello.'
Realizing that this 'older brother Song' was calling him, Song Lujing's eyes instantly showed a hint of interest, 'Do you know me?'
Zhu Zhou's tone remained the same: 'I've heard of you.'
Song Lujing instantly perked up: 'Really? Where did you hear of me?'
Zhu Zhou fell silent for a moment, then announced a competition name and time.
Song Lujing snorted, leaned back against the wall behind him, 'Oh, that's the recommendation competition, that was a hundred million seconds ago.'
Song Yan silently shifted his gaze to the side.
Song Yusui stood in place, idly fiddling with Zhu Zhou's hat on their head.
The bodyguards following Zhu Zhou had long grown accustomed to this young master's situation, standing with heads lowered to one side.
Zhu Zhou ignored him, noticed the gazes cast around, and slightly furrowed their brows.
Jiang Liangjin saw this, led a few people to the corner, gaze falling on Zhu Zhou, tone calm: 'Do you still have something to do here? We're about to leave.'
Zhu Zhou glanced at their older brother, then at the sister-in-law they had identified beside them, finally fixing on the expressionless Song Yusui, lips moving but for a moment unable to speak.
Mu Youyu realized it was almost noon, and responded: 'Yes, if little Zhou wants to stay and play, please stay safe, we're getting ready to leave.'
The several older brothers nearby turned their gazes toward Zhu Zhou, and the atmosphere fell silent for a moment.
Zhu Zhou's fingers paused, they lowered their head and coughed once, 'Are you leaving so soon?'
Not long after his words fell, Qing An slipped out of the crowd and immediately spotted the boy standing in the corner.
Even though the other wore a mask, he still recognized them at a glance, his face showing clear surprise as he laughed loudly: 'Yo, it's Zhu Zhou!'
Without waiting for Zhu Zhou to respond, Qing An strode over to his sister: 'Little brother, you've come at the wrong time, we're leaving, leaving, we'll come back to see you later, bye-bye!'
Song Yusui accordingly lifted their chin at the two bodyguards behind Zhu Zhou: 'Take your young master to rest, see you later.'
Mu Youyu waved a small hand at Zhu Zhou: 'Bye.'
His body, she didn't want to let him send off.
Jiang Liangjin also gestured to his younger cousin: 'We have things to handle, it's not convenient for you to follow, rest well.'
'...... Okay.' Zhu Zhou lowered their eyes, stood in place, watching the group disappear at the banquet hall entrance.
The bodyguard whispered a request: 'Young master, let's go back.'
Zhu Zhou lifted their eyes, gaze falling on the two people's faces.
That face, which had just been gentle, now had all extra emotion stripped away.
He didn't speak, simply took off the hat that Song Yusui had messed up, and casually tidied the hair that had been messed up.
The bodyguards exchanged a glance, not daring to urge further.
After a while, Zhu Zhou finally spoke, their voice a few degrees cooler than before in the banquet hall: 'Let's go.'
After speaking, he put the hat back on his head, pressing it lower than when they arrived.
The group arrived at the royal-exclusive landing pad; Qing An and his sister had chatted enough, turning their gaze to Song Yusui: 'Suisui, your brother is still quite reluctant to part with you.'
Song Yusui's steps didn't stop, their handsome, cold face showing no expression: 'I didn't notice.'
Jiang Liangjin's eyebrows twitched slightly, sensing something off, glanced at him: 'Your brother?'
Song Yusui chuckled, giving a casual reply: 'All the same, all the same.'
Qing An didn't notice anything odd: 'Isn't Suisui's brother? He himself said so.'
The older brothers' minds had already drifted to Y Guo, lacking the energy to respond.
Mu Youyu was being led forward by Jiang Liangjin holding their hand; hearing this, they turned their head to explain: 'That's A Jin's younger cousin.'
Qing An's steps slowed half a beat, face full of surprise, repeating: 'Your brother?'
'En, younger cousin.' Jiang Liangjin's expression calm: 'These days, even younger cousins are being fought over to be called younger brother.'
Qing An changed the topic as if nothing: 'The weather today is really nice.'
'Idiot.' Jun Chenling really couldn't stand his dull demeanor, grabbed him and pulled him to Mu Xin's side: 'Mu Xin is looking for you.'
Qing An immediately hurried down the steps, waddling over to Mu Xin's side, tone bearing a bit of flattery: 'Mu Xin, what's wrong?'
Mu Xin: '...... I'll say it later.'
'What can't be said now?'
'Shut up.'
'Fine......'
Walking to the center of the landing pad, someone was already waiting there; Qing Wei and Ruo Ya stood side by side, not knowing when they had arrived.
Seeing the group come out, Ruo Ya stepped forward first, gaze falling on Mu Youyu: 'Mingxi sister, you're leaving so early?'
She and Qing Wei had originally come to ask about luggage preparations, not expecting the group to just then set off, and a deep reluctance welled up in their hearts.
Mu Youyu shook the hand clasped with Jiang Liangjin: 'Ruo Ya sister, we'll come again when we have free time during the break.'
'You'll come again when you have free time?' Ruo Ya gently pinched her cheek, tone carrying a hint of annoyance: 'You say that like you're coaxing a child.'
Mu Youyu smiled faintly: 'I was just coaxing my sister.'
Ruo Ya was amused by her, reached out to embrace her, gently patted her back: 'Okay, okay, okay, sister has been coaxed by you, next time stay a few more days, or sister will come find you.'
Qing Wei stood to the side, waiting for the two to finish speaking, then stepped forward: 'Mingxi sister, if there's anything over in Y Guo, contact me anytime.'
Mu Youyu obediently promised: 'Okay, thank you, Qing Wei older brother.'
Seeing her like that, Qing Wei added: 'Your older brother Mu Xin is also here; if you have anything, go find him, and if he can't solve it, I can come over anytime from here.'
Mu Xin stood to the side, tone calm: 'I can solve it.'
Jiang Liangjin also glanced at him, promising: 'With us around, nothing will happen.'
Qing Wei raised an eyebrow, said nothing, but there was a hint of smile in their eyes.
Ruo Ya released his sister, gaze turning to the handsome young man beside them: 'Qing An, when will you come back from your trip to Y Guo?'
Qing An was standing beside Mu Xin, hearing that he raised his head, tone casual: "Let's see how things go, anyway there's nothing major domestically."
Ruo Ya helplessly looked at her lazy brother, "... you say that, as if you weren't the M Guo prince."
Qing An spoke righteously, chin raised: "I was never a proper prince to begin with."
Qing Wei silently shifted his gaze aside; Ruo Ya then turned to look at Mu Xi and the others, "May you have a smooth journey; next time you come to M Guo, be sure to let me know in advance."
"All right, I'm off!" Qing An waved his hand, just about to board the plane, when he heard his sister's voice.
"By the way," Mu Youyu suddenly recalled the figure she hadn't seen these past few days, "Where's the older cousin?"
Ruo Ya pondered for a few seconds, "Older cousin?"
Mu Youyu reminded, "It's Older Sister Yan."
Only then did Jiang Liangjin realize why he always felt like someone was missing.
It's Mu Xianyan, who came to M Guo but has an extremely low presence.
Ruo Ya now understood, "She, she has something to do here, not going; you all go ahead first."
