Mianmian didn't see her old clothes anywhere she decided to keep wearing the ones on her body
She took her bag from a table next to the bed without even searching the bag as she was in an hurry to leave. There was no way she was staying in this house for even one more minute.
She cracked the door open and peeked her head out, eyes scanning left and right like a suspicious cat.
Two maids were walking to the stairs. The moment they saw her, they bowed politely.
Mianmian's face instantly turned red. She panicked and slammed the door shut.
"This is so embarrassing… how am I supposed to walk past them?!" she whined into her hands.
Outside, the maids stared at the door she had just shut.
"What's wrong with her?" one whispered.
"She's lucky," the other muttered, annoyed. "Young Master has never brought a woman into the house, especially not into his bedroom."
After they walked downstairs, Mianmian slowly opened the door again. She scanned the hallway, saw no one, and tip-toed out like a thief escaping a crime scene. She raced down the stairs as fast as her legs could go.
"Miss Wen, I thought I said you didn't need to come downstairs yet?"
Mianmian froze mid-step.
She looked up.
Mo Yichen and Lu Zikai were seated at the dining table, staring directly at her. Two maids also watched her like she'd just done something unbelievable.
Mianmian let out the most awkward laugh mankind has ever heard.
"Oh! Did you say that? I… didn't know," she lied terribly.
"Then come and join me," Mo Yichen said and gestured to the seat beside him.
"Haaa… never mind, I'm fine!" she waved both hands.
Right then, her stomach betrayed her with a loud growl.
The entire dining room heard it.
Mianmian wanted the ground to swallow her whole.
Mo Yichen's heart skipped a beat. She looked too adorable.
Mianmian didn't even pretend anymore. She hurried to the dining table, head down, hair a mess, moving like she hadn't eaten in ten years. She sat across from Lu Zikai at the dinning table, with Mo Yichen seated at the
head seat of the dining table
Lu Zikai stared at her like she was some mythical creature. How could this girl make Mo Yichen act like a completely different person? Everyone knew this man never let women near him, much less inside his bedroom. And now look at him.
"Mrs. Chen, bring her food here," Mo Yichen said gently.
Every maid in the room nearly fainted.
Lu Zikai almost burst out laughing, his boss, gentle? Since when?
