Seeing Mu Ke silent, Su Chen beca serious: "By the way, you haven’t answered my question yet. Didn’t Yang Yushan go abroad a long ti ago? What’s the matter? Have you kept in touch these years?"
Mu Ke was silent for two seconds, then spoke: "She confessed to ."
Su Chen’s eyes widened, extrely grateful he wasn’t drinking water at that mont.
"Con... confession? When did that happen?"
"After the college entrance exam."
Actually, Yang Yushan was very subtle back then, not quite a direct confession. At that ti, Mu Ke had just finished his college entrance exams, and Yang Yushan had also just returned from abroad. Once, when the two families dined together, he had gone to the restroom, and upon returning, Yang Yushan cornered him in the corridor. She asked him where he wanted to go to university, hoping he would go to New York because she was there.
Back then, Mu Ke didn’t think much of it, but later realized that Yang Yushan probably was confessing, though speaking very subtly.
At the sa ti, Mu Ke was grateful that, even though he hadn’t recognized it as a confession, he had decisively rejected her.
He only had room for one person in his heart, and that was the only person he could hold.
Having roughly explained the situation to Su Chen, Su Chen paused, finally saying sothing of value: "You should still clarify this with Aunt as soon as possible. I think Aunt seems to really like her. You are all friends, and since it’s a misunderstanding, you should clear it up sooner. It’s better for her, for you, and for Miss Sheng."
Mu Ke nodded, agreeing.
Su Chen didn’t stay long at the Mu Family and soon left, while Yang Yushan also returned to her own ho. Due to their longstanding relationship, the two families lived very close.
This villa area is divided into north and south sides, with the Mu Family in the north and the Yang Family in the south.
As they were leaving, Ms. Wang urged Mu Ke to see them off, but Su Chen tactfully resolved any potential awkwardness: "I happen to be going out too, I’ll escort Sister Yang ho."
After speaking, he looked at Yang Yushan with a bright smile: "Sister Yang, please don’t mind."
He had put it this way, so of course Yang Yushan didn’t object: "Why would I? It’s not a bother, actually I could go back on my own."
"How could that be? Escorting a beauty ho is gentlemanly behavior."
Mu Ke watched them leave, then turned to Ms. Wang and said, "Mom, I have sothing to tell you."
"What is it?"
"Mom, I have a girlfriend now, so please don’t try to set up with anyone else."
Mu Xin’s eyes widened, while Ms. Wang seed unsurprised, instead speaking in a less pleasant tone: "Shanshan isn’t good enough? Our families know each other well, what’s wrong with that? If you don’t like her, I’ll find soone else for you. Don’t use this excuse to fool ."
Mu Ke’s eyes flashed in understanding, it really was a misunderstanding.
Helplessly rubbing his forehead, Mu Ke spoke: "Mom, I’m not fooling you, I’m serious."
His eyes were filled with seriousness and earnestness, and Ms. Wang was slightly taken aback, just as Mu Ke anticipated. She had initially believed him, but since he said he would bring his girlfriend ho to et the family during Spring Festival, then later didn’t, given Mu Ke’s past "misbehavior," they naturally thought he was fooling them.
But looking at her son so seriously now, Ms. Wang was a bit puzzled, frowning and confirming again: "Really?"
Mu Ke didn’t respond verbally, instead retrieving a photo of Sheng Jiayu from his phone.
