“What’s wrong?” Xing Jiuan probably did not notice the concern in her own voice.
However, Lu Zhichen could tell. He put away his phone and smiled gently at Xing Jiuan.
“It’s nothing. I’m just handling a small matter. Why aren’t you playing with Warlord anymore?”
Warlord suddenly ran over with a ball in its mouth. It looked up at Xing Jiuan.
Xing Jiuan subconsciously touched Warlord’s head. “You look unhappy.”
“So Jiuan wants to comfort me?” Lu Zhichen asked.
Xing Jiuan did not speak and only stared at him.
“Jiuan, don’t be like this.” Lu Zhichen could not stand it.
He felt that she was so cute that his heart trembled.
Mu Qing arrived very quickly and did not give Lu Zhichen and Xing Jiuan any more time to interact.
He seemed to know that Lu Zhichen was here as he was not surprised. He just ignored him and told Xing Jiuan to follow him.
Xing Jiuan subconsciously looked at Lu Zhichen. Lu Zhichen smiled and said goodbye to her.
Warlord stood beside Lu Zhichen and did not insist on leaving with Xing Jiuan. It only looked at Xing Jiuan while looking reluctant.
Xing Jiuan waved and left with Mu Qing.
“Senior Brother, why are you in such a hurry?
“What’s wrong?”
Mu Qing looked at his confused little junior sister and sighed. “It’s nothing. You should go home.”
Xing Jiuan thought to herself that it was still especially early.
She really wanted to know what had happened. She took out her phone to ask someone, but Mu Qing spoke.
“I’m confiscating your phone.”
Xing Jiuan looked at him in shock.
Mu Qing extended his hand as if he would not tolerate any objections.
“Senior Brother, I’m already this old. Why is my phone still getting confiscated?” Xing Jiuan was indignant.
When she was young, her phone would also be confiscated because she would sometimes use it until very late at night. No one knew what she was looking at either, so it was confiscated for two days. The phone was locked in a cabinet and placed in her room, but it was not opened for her.
Just like that, Xing Jiuan was bored for two days.
However, this habit was from a long time ago. Later on, when she became busier, her phone became almost just a communication tool.
Xing Jiuan originally didn’t want to, but she still obediently handed over her phone.
Mu Qing did not look at her phone. He directly placed her phone in a small basket in the car that carried snacks and fruits for Xing Jiuan.
Xing Jiuan took out a banana from inside and asked Mu Qing as she ate, “Senior Brother, why did you confiscate my phone?”
Mu Qing drove and said, “I’ll give it to you soon.”
Xing Jiuan still wanted to ask something, but Mu Qing wasn’t answering her.
She did not probe further. She placed the finished banana peel in the small trash can and leaned against the seat, suddenly falling asleep.
At a red light, Mu Qing looked with a gentle gaze at the girl sleeping beside him.
After returning home, he did not get out of the car immediately. While waiting for Xing Jiuan to wake up, Mu Qing took out his cell phone and sent a message.
The situation on the Internet had already changed a lot. It was more like she was being criticized for the sake of criticizing her. The content couldn’t be taken seriously.
Furthermore, the variety show was slowly being aired. Xing Jiuan was so outstanding, and Lin Feng was brainlessly praising her. It couldn’t be fake.
Many people were still on Xing Jiuan’s side regarding this matter.
After all, the daughter of the Huo family was being complimented way too far.
The outstanding ones always felt a little fake to the masses.
It was hard to believe.
