Chapter 477: I'm also speaking seriously

Mu Youyu was teased, "Tell Lin jiejie thanks for me; after I finish playing this period, I'll personally go find her."

Lin Ning made a heart gesture at her, "She can't wait for you to come; last time she kept mentioning it at home, saying she hasn't seen you in ages, missing you so much she can't sleep."

"Really?"

"Of course!"

Liu Wanwan leaned against the sofa, holding a cup of juice, took a slow sip, and glanced around the living room.

Her gaze finally landed on Feng Cen, who was whispering with Song Yan in the corner, and she called out loudly, "Feng Cen, why are you hiding so far away? Come over."

"Wait, when did she come over?"

Feng Cen raised his head, his face showing the guilt of being caught, gave an awkward laugh twice, "I wasn't hiding, I just…… it's cooler here."

"What a buzzkill, she was just about to talk to her idol!!"

Song Yan glanced at her sideways, said nothing, just moved half a step aside to make room for her.

He has always been friendly toward his sister's friends.

Lu Yuchu was present; Bai Yun actually felt a bit embarrassed, maintaining her composure from the moment she entered, pretending to take photos with Mo Song.

Now, hearing the sound, she furtively glanced at Lu Yuchu.

She isn't greedy; being close to her idol is enough.

Lin Ning inexplicably recalled a popular online post, apparently from fans of Lu Yuchu and Song Yan: "How enviable that the young lady's friend gets to see such handsome brothers every day and can even shout 'brother' together with her!! No kidding, I'm already frantic; if I had such a friend, I'd slap myself when we argue."

"……"

As the sky darkened, people took their leave one after another, leaving only a few brothers and Jiang Liangjin in the living room.

Mu Youyu curled up on the sofa, holding Youbao in her arms, obediently snuggling against her leg, soft as a ball.

Jiang Liangjin sat beside her, holding his phone, unsure what he was looking at; the screen's light illuminated his face, revealing a handsome outline.

Mu Xin came downstairs, changed into somewhat formal attire, holding documents.

Seeing him dressed like that, Mu Youyu asked, "Brother, are you leaving?"

"'Yeah, there's still something to handle over at Xiao Yi's.' Mu Xin reached out to ruffle the top of her head, his blue eyes holding a hint of reluctance, 'Rest early, you don't need to get up early.'"

Mu Youyu nodded obediently, "Brother, you're working too hard; be careful on the road."

Jiang Liangjin put his phone away, turned his head to look at her, "I should be going too; get some sleep early."

Mu Youyu cradled Youbao, rose from the sofa, and saw him to the door, "You really will sleep tomorrow?"

"'Really.' Jiang Liangjin stood at the doorway, lowered his gaze to her, eyes gentle, 'I'll message you when I wake up; good night.'"

The next day, Mu Youyu indeed slept the whole day; when she opened her eyes, outside was already getting dark.

She reached for her phone and saw it was already six in the afternoon.

Dozens of unread notifications lay in her message inbox, the topmost being Jiang Liangjin's chat, messages coming one after another.

"8:00 a. m., A Jin: 【Good morning, I'm up 【sun】】"

"Around 8:20 a. m., he sent a breakfast photo, 【Having breakfast】"

"Twenty minutes later, he sent again: 【I'll bring you cake later, I'm off to a meeting】, attached with a casual snapshot taken in the car."

"At noon twelve, he said, 'Meeting ended,' then shortly after sent a lunch photo; sitting opposite seemed to be Mu Xin, face not shown. The dishes were quite plentiful, mostly foods Mu Youyu loves: 【Having lunch with Xin bro】"

"……"

"The last message was sent ten minutes ago: 【I'm home】"

Mu Youyu stared at the last message for a few seconds, then sat up from bed, her hair messy and sticking up, her pajama collar askew.

She rubbed her eyes, tapped a few times on the screen, and replied: 【Just woke up】

After sending the message, the other side instantly replied: 【Wow】

Mu Youyu tossed her phone onto the pillow and headed for the bathroom.

She brushed her teeth while scrolling through her phone.

Last night, while she was asleep, the family group scrolled through nearly a hundred messages.

Most were on-site photos posted by the brothers, from banners to flowers to ribbons, each accompanied by different text, enthusiastic as a professional cheerleader.

Scrolling up a few pages, she also saw several dozen red packets; her grandfather sent the first big one, reading 'Congratulations on the babies' smooth graduation.'

Her grandmother quickly followed with another, the amount inside larger than her grandfather's, obviously done on purpose.

Mu Xi rarely chimed in in the group, replying: 【Thanks, received】

Further down was Song Lujing's reply, just a single exclamation mark, unclear whether he was too lazy to type or absentmindedly tapped it while gaming.

Mu Youyu wasn't surprised; every time she finished an exam, the family group would post.

She replied with a 'flower good moon round' thank-you sticker, then exited the chat interface.

Having changed clothes and come downstairs, the living room lights were on; besides the servants, only Jiang Liangjin was there.

Mu Youyu still thought his 'I'm home' message meant he had gone to the Jiang family.

"'Awake? Hungry?'"

She sat down beside him, 'A Jin, morning; I'm fine, no feeling.'

"It's not early anymore, but whatever her sweetheart says is right; Jiang Liangjin's lips curved into a smile, 'Good morning.'"

"'What about the others? Just you?'"

"'The eldest brother and his wife went out, the second brother was dragged away by Han Mo, and Xin bro is at the company.'"

Mu Youyu acknowledged, "Then where's my Youbao?"

"'Qing An bro took him away, saying he wants to bring him to meet new friends.'"

"He dotes on Youbao's cat to an extreme, carrying it wherever he goes; someone unaware might think it's his own pet."

"'Alright.'"

After Mu Youyu finished asking, Jiang Liangjin opened his mouth: 'Going to Y Guo tomorrow?'

Mu Youyu was stunned for a moment, "Didn't we say we'd talk about it tomorrow?"

"So, have you decided now?"

She pretended to think, "I've decided, I'll sleep another day."

Jiang Liangjin's mouth curled into a smile, "Okay, then we'll sleep another day."

The second year of high school hasn't started vacation yet, Lin Ning still needs to stay domestically for a while longer, so she has time.

Song Huaiyu and Song Huaixian's birthdays are also a few days away; they must go.

Song Yan's birthday and Song Lujing's coming-of-age ceremony are both later; there's no rush.

After tallying it up, it seems we can indeed sleep a few more days.

I'm feeling a bit energetic right now; my schedule seems to be shifting.

Mu Youyu lowered her eyes, tilted her head, and asked, "What are your plans after this?"

Jiang Liangjin didn't even think, "I'll accompany you first."

"And then?"

"Then I'll continue accompanying you."

Mu Youyu: "I'm being serious."

"I'm being serious too." Jiang Liangjin called up a schedule on her phone and turned it toward her to look at.

"I've already taken care of the Jiang Shen side; July is mostly free of major matters, August has a few projects to follow up on, but they can all be handled remotely."

Mu Youyu stared at the packed schedule and asked, "When did you make this?"

"Last month." Jiang Liangjin put her phone away, "Youbao said before the exam that she wanted to go out and play, so I cleared the time ahead of time."

"A Jin is really thoughtful." Mu Youyu curled the corner of her lips, "Where should we go?"

"Go wherever you want." Jiang Liangjin threw the question back.

"……" Mu Youyu wanted a definite answer, not this!
