Chapter 418: Chapter 419: Are you guys hiding something from me?
Mu Shini looked at Li Xiaotian in confusion, "What do you know about the professor?"
Li Xiaotian looked at Mu Shini’s innocent and clear eyes, remembering what Shen Chengcheng had told her, she averted her gaze and said, "It’s nothing, just that he’s so handsome. And last time Mu Xuerou got into the professor’s car. With her personality, she will definitely harm you..."
Mu Shini understood the meaning behind Li Xiaotian’s words and said, "Xia Tian, if Xue Rou wants to cause trouble, let her. I have already warned the professor to be on guard against Mu Xuerou. What he decides to do is his own business..."
As she spoke, Mu Shini realized that she was feeling a bit down.
Why did it hurt so much to think about the professor and other women?
Shaking her head, Mu Shini said softly, "Xia Tian, as long as you are okay, I am relieved."
Li Xiaotian looked at Mu Shini, her brow deeply furrowed, but she dared not say anything.
Especially since she was helping Shen Chengcheng deceive Nian Nian.
Nian Nian trusted her so much, treating her as a good sister, yet she had to hide the truth from her.
"Nian Nian, is there anything you want to eat? I’ll treat you. I haven’t eaten yet." Li Xiaotian, feeling guilty, hooked Mu Shini’s shoulder and forced a smile, speaking to Nian Nian.
"Alright... but let’s eat something light. How about we go for porridge?" Mu Shini suggested.
Especially now, after eating the porridge the professor made for her these past few days, she really liked it!
It seemed like her stomach had become spoiled by the professor.
"Alright! As long as you like it, I’ll treat you!" Li Xiaotian said.
If hiding the truth was truly protecting Nian Nian’s happiness, then what was wrong with helping Shen Chengcheng deceive her?
At most, Nian Nian would blame her for a while after finding out the truth.
Besides, she didn’t even know if Bo Sishen was one of those military men from back then. If he was, he would definitely be a threat to Nian Nian!
...
When Shen Chengcheng passed by the restaurant, she accidentally saw Mu Shini and Li Xiaotian eating, and immediately pushed the door open to go in.
"Nian Nian, Xia Tian, you’re both here? Why didn’t you call me for a meal?" Shen Chengcheng snapped her fingers, asking a waiter to bring an extra set of bowls and chopsticks. She scooped a bowl of porridge from the pot.
"Hey, Shen Chengcheng, that’s the porridge ordered for Nian Nian. What are you eating? If you want to eat, order your own." Li Xiaotian kicked Shen Chengcheng, complaining.
Shen Chengcheng looked up at Li Xiaotian and Mu Shini, smiling, "That day on my birthday, Nian Nian was taken away by the professor before it even started. Now that we’re meeting again, what’s wrong with me eating a bit of Nian Nian’s food?"
"It’s fine, it’s fine, Xia Tian, let Shen Chengcheng eat. There’s a lot in the pot." Mu Shini smiled, pursing her lips.
"By the way, Nian Nian, nothing happened between you and the professor, right?" Shen Chengcheng asked cautiously as she ate the porridge, outwardly calm, but her heart in her throat.
Mu Shini stirred the hot porridge, frowning at Shen Chengcheng, confused, "Why are both you and Xia Tian asking me about the professor? Should something happen between me and him?"
Mu Shini stopped what she was doing, taking it seriously.
Her serious gaze moved back and forth between Shen Chengcheng and Li Xiaotian before she said, "Are you two hiding something from me?"
