Even though he sometimes … However, in general, he was still a righteous man!

She had read too many romance novels, the tyrannical CEO had always wanted to get the female lead. In order to create a scene of a hero saving a beauty, there were also those who deliberately sought to cause trouble for others, but Mu Shu Cheng did not deliberately make things difficult for others, which was why Luo Xue did not hate him.

She didn't want to marry him, partly because he didn't like her, and secondly because his life wasn't something she liked.

Seeing Mu Jiao En anxiously waiting for his answer, Luo Xue curled his lips slightly and answered honestly.

"Not at all!"

This answer caused a flash of astonishment to appear in the corner of Mu Jiao En's eyes. Which girl in North City didn't think all day about pouncing on Mu Shu Cheng, but she, Luo Xue, actually wasn't disgusted at all!

This answer could only make Mu Jiao En think of one possibility.

Mu Jiao En lowered his head and drank a mouthful of sour plum soup, adjusting his expression, just as he was about to say something, he heard someone calling for Luo Xue.

"Miss Luo, everything is ready. Come over and take a look."

Hearing that, Luo Xue hurriedly put down the sour plum soup in her hand and stood up, and said to Mu Jiao En.

"Thank you for your sour plum soup. This sour plum soup tastes great, but it's too sour. I believe that plum powder has been added too much. It's better to let nature take its course. It's too sour and bad for the body."

After Luo Xue finished speaking, she smiled to Mu Jiao En and turned to leave.

Looking at Luo Xue's graceful back, Mu Jiao En frowned. Holding onto the cup, he increased the strength by a lot, causing his joints to become slightly white.

How could she, Mu Jiao En, not hear the hidden meaning behind Luo Xue's words?

Not only did she see through the feelings she had for Mu Shu Cheng, she even "advised" herself.

As Mu Jiao En thought about this, his expression turned even more unsightly. Luo Xue's good intentions in persuading him had all been understood as a threat by her.

Luo Xue didn't have as many people as Mu Jiao En thought. There were many people who liked Mu Shu Cheng, what did it have to do with her?

She could tell that Mu Jiao En had a deep affection for Mu Shu Cheng, but they were clearly not blood related. Not thinking of marrying Mu Shu Cheng when he was in need of a wife, could only mean that it was impossible for Mu Shu Cheng and her to marry each other.

It was not to drive away her rival, but to make her live a rational life.

Luo Xue walked to the side of the orchid that was pulled out, and looked back at Mu Jiao En hungry. She worked even harder, as if telling herself to defend love!

Luo Xue shook her head helplessly, and started on her work. After half a day, she changed the orchids back into the soil, placing them into flower pots one by one. At noon, she ate a set meal with the servants, and worked until dusk.

Halfway there, Mu Yu gave her two phone calls. Because she was too busy, she didn't answer them.

When Mu Shu Cheng drove the carriage to Orchard, the permanent sister-in-law accompanied Shi Lan in chanting in the buddhist hall, and did not disturb him, but instead went straight to the garden.

The moment Mu Jiao En and Luo Xue walked into the pavilion and was about to rest, they saw Mu Shu Cheng walking over with his hands in his pockets. His pace was steady, his expression calm, and there was wisdom between his brows.

When Mu Jiao En saw that Mu Shu Cheng was very excited, he immediately jumped up from the chair, and his gaze was fixed on Mu Shu Cheng, but Luo Xue's body only trembled slightly, feeling uncomfortable, his gaze floated towards a distance, and was unwilling to look at him.

Mu Shu Cheng's gaze was always on Luo Xue. Because she had not finished her work and had not washed yet, her face, hands, and clothes were all covered in soil. Her cute appearance was extremely similar to a farm girl.

He walked into the pavilion, took out a small box from his pocket and handed it over to Mu Jiao En.

"It was found so quickly?"

She could not wait to open it. Her face was brimming with a happy smile.

Luo Xue curiously looked at Mu Jiao En and saw her taking out an Imperial Jade Seal from the box. It was round, blue, and brown in color, and also seemed to be a mixture of these two colors.

"I finally got it, thank you Shu Cheng."

Mu Jiao En happily looked at Mu Shu Cheng, and had been watching this entire time, not even sparing a glance at the Imperial Jade Seal.

As someone who understood the situation, Luo Xue could tell that she cared not about the Imperial Jade Seal, but about the person who gave it to her! And it was very obvious.

Seeing that Mu Shu Cheng did not answer, Mu Jiao En took out the Imperial Jade Seal and said to Luo Xue as if she was showing off.

"This jade seal came from a hole in the Himalayas. It is said to have the ability to ward off evil, and was sought after as soon as it appeared. It was later carved by the famous sculptor Dain in half a year's time and auctioned off in London, England. At that time, it was bought by a wealthy American businessman for $2 million."

As Luo Xue listened, her eyes did not reveal much surprise, because she understood in her heart that items bought by wealthy people would not be cheap, furthermore, it was Mu Shu Cheng who bought it, so it must be worth a lot. It was just that this item was so rare, so Mu Shu Cheng must have thought about it.

What she did not understand was that, the way Mu Shu Cheng looked at Mu Jiao En, was cold and detached, with no love whatsoever. Since he could not give Mu Jiao En any love, why did he waste this time trying to make Mu Jiao En happy?

Could it be that this was the legendary cultivation method of Bei Tai?

As Luo Xue thought about this, the way she looked at Mu Shu Cheng became somewhat strange.

It was precisely this abnormality that caused Mu Shu Cheng to be in a good mood. He completely understood the strangeness in Luo Xue's eyes to be an expression of jealousy.

A woman's heart was like the seabed needle of the sea. Sometimes, a man wouldn't be able to see through many things!

They were both smart people, and the abnormality in Luo Xue's eyes did not escape from her eyes. She should understand it the same way as Mu Shu Cheng, otherwise, she would not be so happy.

"Shu Cheng, I really have to thank you this time. If I have time tonight, I'll treat you to a meal."

Mu Jiao En was overjoyed, from the moment Mu Shu Cheng appeared, his face was brimming with a happy smile.

Mu Shu Cheng didn't say a word. He looked at Luo Xue, as if he was asking for her opinion.

Luo Xue looked at Mu Shu Cheng in a daze. She didn't understand what meant by this.

Out of the corner of his eyes, he scanned Mu Jiao En and could clearly feel the displeasure on her face.

Luo Xue felt that this siblings was very strange. Why did they have to pull an outsider like her into their relationship when there was something fishy going on between them?

Just as he was about to say something, Mu Shu Cheng opened his mouth.

"If you want to thank, thank Yi Min. He bought this for you!"

Surprise flashed through Luo Xue's eyes. She was not raising Bei Tai!

Mu Jiao En's hand trembled, and his beautiful eyes immediately dimmed.

When she managed to react, Mu Shu Cheng had already pulled Luo Xue away from the Orchard. Looking at their harmonious backs, Mu Jiao En clenched his fists tightly, a bit too hard.
