Endless Pampering Only For You

Chapter 41: I Rejected Her

They entered a breakfast shop.

At Lu Yichen’s recommendation, Mu Xiaoxiao ordered a steamed dumpling.

Taking a bite, her eyes widened from the deliciousness. “This is good! Do you want some too? Anyway, I just finished my cake, so I can’t eat so much,” she said.

“No, I’m not hungry,” Lu Yichen said as he waved his hand and rejected.

Mu Xiaoxiao didn’t mind it. She thought he was really polite.

She glanced at the cake beside his hand curiously. Finally, she couldn’t control herself anymore. “Why did you buy that but not eat it? Is it for your girlfriend?” she asked.

Lu Yichen was startled for a second and did not reply to her. Changing the topic, he asked instead, “Do you like strawberry cakes this much? You looked like you were in love with it.”

Mu Xiaoxiao was a rather smart girl and knew that he didn’t want to answer the question. She did not press it, but because of this, she was convinced that he had gotten the cake for his girlfriend.

Hence, she deduced that his girlfriend must be studying in Shangde High School!

Mu Xiaoxiao gloated over her intelligence. At the same time, she wondered what kind of girl would make him like her so much as to not only protect her identity but also date her for so long.

After finishing the steamed dumpling, Mu Xiaoxiao dusted the bits off her hand. “I’m done. Let’s go.”

Lu Yichen handed a tissue over for her to wipe her hands.

As they walked out of the shop, she glanced around cautiously. Certain that Yin Shaojie’s car was no longer around, she then gave a sigh of relief.

“What’s wrong?” Lu Yichen noticed her weird behavior and asked.

Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and shook her head. “It’s nothing. Anyway, do you usually have breakfast here?”

“Occasionally.”

“Actually, I went to your class to look for you yesterday, but you weren’t there. I heard that you were called out by a girl who wanted to confess to you; is that true?” Mu Xiaoxiao’s gossipy side emerged.

“I rejected her,” Lu Yichen said calmly. “What were you finding me for?” he asked as he looked at her.

“It’s nothing much… I wanted you to guide me around the school since I’m not very familiar with it.” She rubbed her nose guiltily though because she already had Yu Zhe as a guide.

“Oh yeah, I’m in Class S of Year One. If there’s anything in the future, you can come and look for me.” She would rather have exchanged phone numbers but felt that they were not familiar enough. It seemed rude to do so, so she did not ask for it.

“You’re in Class S?” Lu Yichen didn’t look surprised. He had felt from yesterday’s incident that she had an extraordinary status, but now, he had evidence that she was just another rich girl from a wealthy family.

What puzzled him was why she hadn’t eaten breakfast. Didn’t rich people have cooks in their houses? He couldn’t think of why she had to come all the way to school just for breakfast.

Both of them walked up to the school gate. Because it was almost time for class, there were quite a few students rushing by.

Mu Xiaoxiao felt the intense stares of people around her and guessed that it was because of Lu Yichen. However, he was unperturbed. Apparently, he was used to it.

At the gates, Lu Yichen glanced at the security guards unintentionally. There was a newcomer, and the guard from yesterday was nowhere to be seen.

There were two guards talking. One of them said, “In the future, don’t act stupidly like Little Lee. He accidentally offended someone and got fired.”
