Chapter 67: Summer Vacation Arrangements

Mu Xi gave a faint "hng".

Bai Yun stood where she was, still unable to figure out how to digest this shocking news.

Just then, Mu Xi answered a call, her brows slightly furrowed, and her expression instantly darkened a bit.

Mu Youyu wondered, "Second brother, what happened?"

"The teacher asked me to go back to school to sign something; I'll probably be late."

"What the hell, he just came out of the office, and then didn't say anything."

Mu Xi hung up the phone, turned to look at Mu Youyu, her tone softening: "Youbao, you go back with the driver first?"

Mu Youyu nodded obediently, reached out and gently shook Mu Xi's hand, the motion natural and affectionate: "Okay, then second brother, be careful!"

"Got it, call me if anything comes up." Mu Xi's coldness in her eyes eased a little as she raised her hand to ruffle her hair.

She also glanced at Bai Yun, gave a slight nod, then quickly walked toward Nan Feng opposite.

"Goodbye, young lady!" the driver hurriedly opened his umbrella and followed.

Watching Mu Xi disappear into the distance, Bai Yun could no longer hold back and grabbed Mu Youyu's wrist.

"Xiao Yu! You've hidden it so deeply! Is Xi Shao your real older brother? You're the Mu family's eldest daughter? Why didn't you tell me?"

I never expected the Mu family actually has an eldest daughter! Ahhh!

Before, the outside world only heard rumors that the Mu family had an eldest daughter.

But outsiders didn't know what she looked like.

I never expected it to be Xiao Yu!

Mu Youyu was shaken by her into laughing out loud: "Yeah, but no one asked."

Bai Yun's eyes widened; this sentence sounded just like before, when she asked Xiao Yu why she didn't say she was Jiang Shao's childhood friend.

Xiao Yu also replied that no one asked.

"Who would've thought! You're the childhood friend of Jiang Shao, Yu Shao, Gu Xiao Shao, and Lin Da Xie's best friend—already enough—but it turns out you're also Xi Shao's sister!"

Bai Yun slapped her thigh: "Nan Feng Xi Shao is a legendary figure, comparable to Jiang Shao! Great grades, good looks… and he's also Nan Feng's school tyrant, student council president, the Mu family's second young master—always getting whatever he wants from a young age!"

The more she spoke, the more enthusiastic she became: "Every joint exam he ranks first in the city, he's won national competition gold awards…"

"He's been taught piano by world-class teachers since childhood, winning many awards! In his first year of high school, entering a competition got him a direct admission! He's even fought Jiang Shao! Many people idolize him as a male god, dream lover!"

Jiang Shao didn't fight back.

Looking back now, not fighting back was because they grew up together! Ahhh!

It's the kind where an older brother hits a younger brother!

Mu Youyu smiled: "Second brother has always been formidable."

But, after beating A Jin, there's no need to mention it…

"Right, right! I think so too!"

Bai Yun added: "By the way, the rumors about you and Senior Song Lujing—are they true?"

Her tone was full of gossip.

Mu Youyu helplessly nodded then shook her head: "It's not as they say; he's my cousin."

Bai Yun then remembered that Song Lujing is Mu Xi's cousin!

"Oh oh oh, I almost forgot!"

She said a few more things, then got to the point: "Did your Jiang Shao and Xia Chao Yi and them go run for student council?"

"Yeah."

The previous student council president was already recommended for direct admission and hardly came to school, so the vice president has been handling things.

Now the vice president is about to graduate from the college entrance exam in a few days, only then did they think about recruiting new members.

They mainly recruit from their first year of high school, because that class will become second year in September.

Mu Youyu said a word, and Jiang Liangjin went.

Yu Ci and Gu Xingnan were already planning to go, Xia Chao Yi too; after the exams, they all went together.

Bai Yun clicked her tongue twice, eyes full of certainty: "If Jiang Shao runs, the presidency is a sure thing—not just for the first year, no one in Lan Lin would dare challenge him!"

Jiang Liangjin will definitely be the student council president!

Lan Lin is the Jiang family's enterprise; he is the Jiang family's sole heir, and his grades are already first in the first-year high school class.

Mu Youyu narrowed her eyes, not denying.

Jiang Liangjin has always been like that; whenever he wants to do something, he never falls behind others.

Moreover, he has that ability.

Bai Yun suddenly remembered something, poked Mu Youyu's arm: "Come to think of it, do you want to join the fun too? With your abilities, you could easily take any position!"

She was planning to go tomorrow, but today there are too many people.

Class A is the elite class; quite a few people went to participate.

Moreover, this term's student council president, vice president, and department heads are almost all from Senior Year Class A.

Class A became even more fired up! Instantly, passion boiled over.

Mu Youyu tilted her head, thought it over, then gently shook her head: "I'm not going."

In her second year of high school, she probably won't have much time.

"Alright, alright, what a pity."

"Want to grab something to eat?" Bai Yun smiled; she had been hungry during the exam.

Mu Youyu had the same idea: "Sure!"

Perfect, we can wait for Jiang Liangjin and them meanwhile.

Jiang Liangjin's side will surely have results soon, while Yu Ci, Gu Xingnan, and Xia Chao Yi and them might have to wait.

Bai Yun opened an umbrella, blocking the sun above the two of them; the two didn't take a vehicle, they walked over.

Lan Lin is in the city center; not far away, several upscale shops have opened.

The two walked into a dessert shop with purpose.

Mu Youyu and Bai Yun have been coming here often these days.

Bai Yun, familiar with the place, headed straight to the counter, eyes bright: "Hello, one caramel sea salt mille-feuille, two taro paste ice cream mochi!"

Mu Youyu stood beside her: "A bowl of taro paste mochi balls."

This dessert shop also suits her taste; the taro paste is soft and glutinous, the sugar level just right.

The staff acknowledged, and soon the desserts were brought up.

The caramel sea salt mille-feuille is four inches in size, served on a white porcelain plate; the flaky pastry layers are stacked, the top layer drizzled with caramel sauce, with a few crushed sea salt grains sprinkled on top.

The two servings of taro paste ice cream mochi are the large size, round and plump, lying in a white porcelain bowl waiting to be eaten.

In front of Mu Youyu, the taro paste mochi balls are covered on top with taro paste and white small balls, with more mochi underneath, soft and squishy.

After taking a photo, Bai Yun handed the taro paste ice cream mochi in front of her to Mu Youyu before starting to eat.

Mu Youyu answered the phone halfway through her meal.

"A Jin, have the results come out?"

From the other end came Jiang Liangjin's clear, smooth voice: "Yes, Youbao, we've all been internally selected; we'll start work when sophomore year begins."

Mu Youyu wasn't surprised by this result; after all, the few of them all have this ability.

She scooped a spoonful of mochi, "Are you still at school?"

The voice on the other end sounded lazy: "Hmm, there are a few arrangements here."

Mu Youyu responded, and Jiang Liangjin continued: "There's a small banquet at No. 10 Lan Lin."

Beside her, Bai Yun saw Mu Youyu's puzzled expression and immediately leaned in to explain: "Every year, the day before winter and summer vacations begin, and the day before school starts, Lan Lin holds a small banquet to celebrate, right in Lan Lin Building 4's banquet hall!"

Mu Youyu nodded, she understood; Jiang Liangjin was asking whether she would go.

She estimated that her second older brother's participation in the competition would also take a week, so she agreed: "A Jin, I'm going!"

"Okay."

After hanging up, Bai Yun couldn't wait: "Xiao Yu, what are your summer plans?"

Mu Youyu bit into the ice cream: "I'm planning to go to Y Guo, what's up?"

Bai Yun exclaimed: "I also wanted to invite you to go play with me in M Guo."

Mu Youyu smiled, shook her phone: "It won't interfere with our communication."

"Alright, then remember to take more photos of me."

Bai Yun was eating the mille-feuille when her eyes suddenly lit up: "Right! Speaking of Y Guo, I recall that Y Guo will host an International Youth Art Exhibition next month! My older brother will also be going!"
