"No!" Mo Xiaomeng said, her face blus.h.i.+ng as she turned away.

"Why not?" Ye Sijue"s fine blue eyes narrowed and his devilish face was almost touching hers.

Han Qiqing bawled from behind. "Stop it, you two. That"s enough. Sijue, stop bullying Xiaomeng. She"s almost about to fall out."

As soon as she finished, Ye Sijue stretched his arms and pulled back Mo Xiaomeng who was leaning out of the car.

"Thanks for the reminder," he said, holding Mo Xiaomeng"s hand, not intending of letting go.

Han Qiqing sighed and grumbled softly to Song s.h.i.+jun, "Is it really good for us single dogs to keep watching these couples? It"s inhumane how they keep abusing us dogs!"

Song s.h.i.+jun pondered for a moment and said seriously, "I have a solution."

"What solution?"

Upon asking the question, Song s.h.i.+jun wrapped his arm around her shoulders, smiling smugly as he went close to her ear and say, "We"ll pretend to be couples, then we won"t be single dogs anymore. Now, we won"t be victims of their abuse anymore, will we?" Ain"t I clever?"

Han Qiqing rolled her eyes at him and speared him away with her elbow. "Lame!"

Song s.h.i.+jun rubbed his wounded chest and said, "I"ll go find Su Lin then. And you"ll be the only single dog left to bear three times the abuse! You"d better think carefully!"

Han Qiqing"s eyes widened. Then her two fingers were pointed at his eyes as she threatened him, "You dare!"

"Heheh, you can"t just leave me, huh?" Song s.h.i.+jun laughed cunningly as he tried to put his arms around her again.

Han Qiqing flung his hand away, glanced at Su Lin in the car behind them, and she lowered her voice as she said to him, "Who cares about you? I"m just reminding you that Su Lin is not one of us. You can"t have really taken a fancy to her, right?"

Song s.h.i.+jun quickly replied, "Of course not! How could I like her?"

Han Qiqing was relieved. "That"s good."

In the middle of their chatter, they unknowingly arrived at the villa.

At the entrance to the villa stood an attendant. Seeing them arrive, he smiled, bowing deferentially, and went to open the door for them.

Yin Shaojie moved the luggage with one hand and held Mu Xiaoxiao"s hand with the other as they entered first.

Mu Xiaoxiao was enamored with the decor as she looked around the place. She turned to Mo Xiaomeng and said, "Xiaomeng, let"s go upstairs and pick a room."

"Oka…" Before Mo Xiaomeng could even finish saying the word, Ye Sijue held her in his arms, compelling her to go upstairs with him.

Amazed, Mu Xiaoxiao stared at Ye Sijue as she said to Yin Shaojie, "What"s the meaning of that?"

"He couldn"t be wanting to…"

The thought flashed in her mind, and she immediately started toward them. However, Yin Shaojie held her back.

He said slowly, "Slow down. Don"t be so anxious."

It was already a foregone conclusion anyways. It wouldn"t matter even if she were to oppose it.

"But…" Mu Xiaoxiao looked worried. How was she going to explain to William about this?

Yin Shaojie looked at her and said, "If Sijue wanted to do anything to Xiaomeng, he would have already done it since they"re living together. Would he have to wait until now? Just let them go about their natural course."

He tapped on the luggage and said, "You should help carry this too. It"s too heavy. What the heck did you put inside?"

"I didn"t put a lot of things! It"s just some… Let me think…" Mu Xiaoxiao pondered as she carried the luggage upstairs.
