Sensing the abnormal behavior of the classmates around her, Mu Huan raised her head, only to see Long Feiting walking toward them. It was clear that his target was her. This left her heart skipping a beat!

Had she been discovered?

As Long Feiting walked closer to her with every step, Mu Huan’s body became increasingly rigid. Just as she was thinking about how she would fight until the end if she had truly been discovered, a tall figure stood in front of her, blocking her from Long Feiting’s threatening gaze.

It was Gu Chenyi!

“Gu Chenyi, what are you doing?” Long Feiting’s tone was as bad as his mood.

“I said it before: do not bother her,” Gu Chenyi said with a low voice.

Seeing Gu Chenyi acting this way, Mu Huan recalled how he had stood in front of her and protected her the same way in the past. She was left with a complex emotion.

Having been constantly on the move because of life since junior high school, she had never thought about dating anyone. But Gu Chenyi’s kindness moved her and made her believe that she could also fall in love and enjoy her youth like an ordinary girl.

She accepted his pursuit after their entrance exams. She had even fantasized about living a great life as a loving university couple, but…

Those things happened, and people changed.

“Don’t you have a girlfriend? You should just be protecting her. Why are you protecting this one?” As a young master who had been doted on by many since he was young, Long Feiting was used to doing as he pleased. To him, every issue at hand depended on how he was feeling.

If he was in a good mood, he would be fine even if you slapped him across the face. If he was in a bad mood, he would torment you if he found you to be an eyesore, even if you did nothing to agitate him.

He wanted to torment Mu Huan, yet he was blocked by Gu Chenyi. This left him in an even worse mood.

“My matters are none of your business. I will say the same thing again. Do not bother her, and that’s that!” Gu Chenyi grabbed Mu Huan’s arm to leave.

Mu Huan brushed his hand away instinctively.

She was now someone with a husband. Therefore, she should maintain a certain distance from the opposite sex, especially Gu Chenyi!

When he saw this, Long Feiting’s mood improved. He said to Gu Chenyi, “Look, she doesn’t want you to meddle with her business. Who knows, she might be waiting to get into my good graces!”

Long Feiting came from a good background. He was handsome and smart, and he attracted the screams of girls wherever he went. Therefore, he was extremely confident in his appearance.

“You are thinking too much,” Gu Chenyi said with an unsightly expression on his face after being brushed away.

Even though Xiao Huan had swung his hand away, she was definitely not waiting to be in Long Feiting’s favor!

“How do you know that I’m thinking too much? What if she really is?” Long Feiting looked at Mu Huan with a mesmerizing smile on his face. “Cutie, have dinner with me tonight, won’t you?”

The corners of Mu Huan’s mouth twitched. Eat your head!

She looked at Gu Chenyi. “Thanks, Chenyi.”

No matter what, Gu Chenyi still did help her escape the danger of being found out by Long Feiting.

“I still have something on, so I’ll head off first. You guys take your time to talk.” With that, she ran toward the school.

Gu Chenyi looked at the view of her back for a long time, unable to pull his eyes away.

People were always like this. The more we want to let go of something, the harder it is for us to do so.

Long Feiting’s interest in Mu Huan increased once again. There wasn’t a girl like her who didn’t turn red and ran away in response to his smile.

“Want to grab a drink together?” Long Feiting looked at Gu Chenyi.

Although the two had been confronting one another earlier, Gu Chenyi was still the only one he considered to be a friend in this school.

“Let’s go.” Gu Chenyi was just thinking about getting a drink due to his sour mood.

“What is going on between you and Mu Huan?” Long Feiting could tell by just looking at Gu Chenyi’s gaze that he had feelings for her.
