Chapter 461: How to Deal with Romantic Rivals
The next day, after Mu Yiliang went out, she indeed spotted Xin’s figure.
Her expression remained calm, neither annoyed nor surprised.
Mu Yiliang thought for a moment and walked up to her.
"I’m going to have to trouble you in the future, Xin."
"It’s my duty, Lady Mu, no need to be polite." She said blandly.
"Did you already guess that I would find a way to get you by my side?" Mu Yiliang suddenly asked with a smile.
Xin showed a hint of astonishment: "What are you talking about?"
"Oh, I know your target is my man, but you don’t stand a chance, give it up." Mu Yiliang said with a grin.
Xin seemed amused: "I think you must have misunderstood something."
"Oh, then let’s just say I misunderstood." Mu Yiliang smiled, "I know you hold yourself in high regard and don’t think much of me. Besides, do you think I got you close because I’m worried about you and Yan Sijue? Not at all. I know you’re working hard to gain Yan Sijue’s trust, so if anything happens to me, you’ll definitely try your best, and what’s more professional, loyal, and honest than saving me? If the person you save is Yan Sijue, he might suspect you’re targeting him, but if it’s me, he won’t have a single doubt. So having you by my side puts me at ease."
Xin remained expressionless, though her gaze showed a slight ripple of emotion.
"If I truly misunderstood, then I believe with your professionalism, you can absolutely ensure my safety, so no matter what, I won’t lose out, don’t you think?" Mu Yiliang said with a smile before finally opening the door and getting in.
In fact, Mu Yiliang was not afraid of rivals in love, but Xin was also Yan Sijue’s benefactor, so before Xin took any initiative, she couldn’t embarrass or treat her unfairly. Ah, it was really troublesome.
But she believed Yan Sijue wouldn’t give her any opportunity.
This time going out, Mu Yiliang’s target was shopping. As a woman, she hadn’t enjoyed the fun of shopping for a long time! Although Housekeeper Li would purchase all the new items from major brands each season to fill her wardrobe, it felt unexciting.
Shopping alone was boring, so she straightforwardly pulled Xin along, making her responsible for carrying bags, swiping cards, and being forced to give opinions. Xin’s always calm and indifferent face cracked for the first time.
She seemed quite perplexed as to why Mu Yiliang warned her one minute and then the next, with nothing going on dragged her to go shopping together.
Every time Mu Yiliang asked if something she tried on looked good, Xin could only stiffly nod. Then Mu Yiliang would contentedly instruct the store staff to pack it up and wave for Xin to go swipe the card.
Xin diligently complied all along, carrying more than a dozen bags without showing any signs of fatigue.
In the end, even Mu Yiliang felt a bit sorry and asked the bodyguard following behind to share the bags from Xin’s hands. She looked Xin up and down, commenting: "Xin, you have a very nice nose. Your eyes, while not very big, are very expressive and substantial. Your lips are well-defined and would suit lip gloss... Actually, you could try wearing makeup, maybe with a midline enchanting style. And you have a great figure, long, straight legs. Let me pick some clothes for you to try on!"
Xin’s lips twitched slightly, and she coldly refused: "No need, I don’t require it."
