It felt sowhat unbelievable.

But for Gu Xiyan, this little jealous jar, to have no objections was truly unbelievable.
Initially, when he and i Yinxue had developed a relationship first, he thought Gu Xiyan would leave him without hesitation, but in the end, she chose to tolerate it, and revealed the sheer curtain between them, truly being with him. This could be barely explained, because at that ti she wasn't truly with him and since i Yinxue was with him first, she sowhat shared the bla, so she was able to tolerate it.
As for Wen Rou, it was because they had always lived together, she understood Wen Rou's feelings for him, and she was aware that Wen Rou would actually be with him first, if only Wen Rou hadn't been too shy and timid to accept his advances, allowing her to beat her to it.
But with Lin Qiaoxia's situation, given Gu Xiyan's temperant, she could have completely ignored it or even have slapped her to keep her away from him, which would have been normal.
Yet, she agreed.
Lin Qiaoxia, hearing Wen Rou's words, was stunned for a long while, she closely counted and it seed that i Yinxue, Gu Xiyan, and Wen Rou didn't mind her presence, she imdiately beca ecstatic and ran towards Mu Jinyu.
Yu Linglong and Xu Qingya, sitting by the side, also had their saddened eyes suddenly spark with endless vitality.
They too couldn't restrain the impulse in their hearts and wanted to confess to Mu Jinyu.
After all, in their imagination, if Gu Xiyan and the others could agree to Lin Qiaoxia joining, they should also agree to their joining, and since Mu Jinyu could accept three wives like Gu Xiyan, having a few more didn't seem unreasonable.
After all, their looks were not too inferior to Gu Xiyan and her group.
Just as they were sowhat unable to control their impulses and also wanted to confess to Mu Jinyu, the conversation between Mu Jinyu and Lin Qiaoxia cooled their hearts, as if a bucket of cold water had been thrown over their heads, leaving them speechless.
Lin Qiaoxia ran over, standing before Mu Jinyu, breathless and with a mix of nervousness and trepidation, she said, "Young Master Mu, General Gu and the others… I… could you give a chance to pursue you… I really…"
Mu Jinyu looked at Gu Xiyan and the others with a complex expression, finally sighed lightly, and shook his head, "I'm sorry, I can't accept you…"
"Ah?!" Lin Qiaoxia, hearing Mu Jinyu's words, was stunned, her fervent heart as if doused by icy water.
She had thought that the biggest obstacle to being with Mu Jinyu was Gu Xiyan and the other two, and she also felt there was no hope, but since Gu Xiyan and the others had agreed, why wouldn't Mu Jinyu accept her?
Her woman's intuition could also feel that Mu Jinyu did like her, although not as much as he did Gu Xiyan and the others, but still, there was so affection.
"Why…"
Lin Qiaoxia bit her lip, her eyes brimming with tears, asking.
Mu Jinyu looked at Lin Qiaoxia, his emotions a complex mix, he sighed, "You are a good girl, honestly, I do quite like you, but…"
"I am too greedy, having these three wonderful girls follow has already made them suffer enough, I don't want them to suffer any more, nor do I want you to suffer, so, I'm really sorry…"
Mu Jinyu sighed deeply.
Although Mu Jinyu couldn't clearly say everything why Gu Xiyan and the others finally agreed to let Lin Qiaoxia join them, he knew it wasn't entirely willingly. They must have considered his feelings in making such a decision, compromising their own.
Then he couldn't ignore their feelings anymore.
Although he liked Lin Qiaoxia quite a bit, he chose to let her down in favor of Gu Xiyan and the other two girls who had always been by his side through thick and thin.
At this point, Mu Jinyu began to sowhat resent his past promiscuity—had he known it would end up this way, he wouldn't have flirted around and attracted a ss of romantic entanglents when he couldn't win Wen Rou's affection.
"I... I understand... I'm sorry, Young Master Mu... for troubling you, I won't do this anymore..."
Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, Lin Qiaoxia's eyes, which had initially sparkled with endless spirit, dimd and beca hollow as she lowered her head, holding back tears, and spoke softly.
Father Lin and Mother Lin, who had long lost their appetite, felt a pang of heartache upon seeing this scene.
But could they really bla Mu Jinyu?
It was their daughter who had wanted to interfere and beco the third wheel, only to be rejected. Could they really criticize the other party for not knowing any better?
It was just unfortunate that their daughter and Mu Jinyu were destined to et but not ant to be together—they had t him too late.
Otherwise, why would they be in such a sorry state today?
Yu Xiuwen's and Xu Qingya's parents also felt uneasy upon seeing this.
Although the person openly rejected was Lin Qiaoxia, not their daughter, they still empathized deeply, knowing well their own daughter's feelings for Mu Jinyu.
If Lin Qiaoxia's advances were in vain, wouldn't Xu Qingya and Yu Linglong's attempts end up the sa?
Lin Qiaoxia spoke intermittently, finally managing to control herself and not break down into tears. After finishing, she covered her face and prepared to leave the place.
But just as she was about to leave, soone grabbed her.
Turning around, she saw that Gu Xiyan and her group had co up beside her without her noticing, and the person holding her back was none other than Gu Xiyan.
Following Mu Jinyu's recent remarks, the slight grievances and conflicts in Gu Xiyan's heart had dissipated, and she had co to a realization. Since she couldn't monopolize Mu Jinyu, having a few more sisters who knew each other well and understood their hearts was actually a good thing.
After all, Wen Rou was sowhat too ek, and Sister i was too dominant to truly bond with her. If she ever had a disagreent with Mu Jinyu, she couldn't effectively gather allies, as Wen Rou would be the first to betray her to please Mu Jinyu.
But if she let Yu Linglong and Xu Qingya join them, it would strengthen their group and prevent Mu Jinyu from bullying them!
Otherwise, she would end up sleeping on the couch alone!
Gu Xiyan held onto Lin Qiaoxia and rolled her eyes at Mu Jinyu, "Can you not bully Qiaoxia? When have I, along with Wen Rou and Sister i, ever complained? Don't act all innocent after taking advantage of us!"
"This…" Mu Jinyu, hearing Gu Xiyan's words, was a bit confused about what she really ant.
Gu Xiyan also knew that without a plausible excuse, Mu Jinyu, who always felt indebted to them, might not accept Lin Qiaoxia no matter how much they persuaded him, so she said:
"Jinyu, you know you've hardly spent any ti with us..."
"Most of the ti, we're just bored at ho, playing 'Fight the Landlord' to pass the ti. But playing cards can get boring, and having Qiaoxia join us could an we could start playing mahjong instead..."
