Chapter 27 Hypocrisy

Being stared at by Aixi's clear eyes, even if the arrow was on the string and the thunder was striking, the interest was mostly gone.

Mu Jingpei didn't even look at Zuo Ying, she walked over and said to Aixi, "It's nothing. Let's go back to sleep."

Aixi stood still.

Mu Jingpei had no choice but to push her back and lead her away, which was like hugging her.

Aixi was not as strong as him, so she was pushed back to the room unwillingly by him.

She asked dissatisfiedly: "I don't believe it's nothing. What are you doing here?"

"This is not something a child should know." Mu Jingpei said in a perfunctory tone.

This made Aixi even angrier.

"I'm eighteen years old! I'm not a kid anymore!"

Mu Jingpei raised an eyebrow: "Really?"

He glanced at her meaningfully.

Aixi blushed, and then thought of Zuo Ying's breasts.

She felt ashamed, angry and hurt in her heart, and she didn't even have the courage to refute.

In a blink of an eye, they had entered the room.

The room was pitch dark.

Mu Jingpei stood at the door, turned on the light and said, "Go upstairs and sleep."

Aixi climbed to the upper bunk and looked back at him, angrily saying, "Liar! Scumbag!"

Mu Jingpei was not angry at all. She even said “hmm” and accepted it happily: “It’s not the first day you know I’m a scumbag.”

Aixi choked.

How can he be so casual?

She was so angry that her nose was sore. She lay down with the quilt in her arms, facing the wall, and didn't say another word.

Mu Jingpei looked at her back and sighed in his heart.

He didn't care that Zuo Ying hadn't come back. He walked to the door, turned off the lights, and came back to lie down and sleep.

As soon as he closed his eyes, the first thing that came to his mind was Aixi's sad look in the corridor just now.

He began to reflect on whether this was too cruel.

At this moment, Zuo Ying was still standing at the corner, her face a little pale.

She would definitely not lose out if she had a romantic encounter with a quality man like Mu Jingpei. So she dressed up nicely after taking a shower tonight.

Unfortunately, with Aixi as the light bulb, she could only exchange glances, but Mu Jingpei didn't react at all.

She was absolutely confident in her figure and guessed that he must be pretending to be serious because of Aixi.

She could tell that their relationship was special. It was obvious that Aixi liked him, but it was hard to tell what he was thinking.

She waited until the early morning and finally got her chance.

Mu Jingpei went out to the bathroom, and she followed him out, and when he came out of the bathroom, she blocked him.

He didn't ask her what she was doing. He leaned lazily against the wall behind him, looking at her in a very teasing manner with a charming smirk on his face.

He really knows everything, but he is just a hypocrite.

Facing such a handsome man, Zuo Ying's heart beat faster and faster, but she found that there was no emotion in his eyes, as if he was just watching a boring performance.

The more this happened, the more she wanted to conquer him. Zuo Ying simply stretched out her hand to the hem of his T-shirt.

At this time, Mu Jingpei spoke up, her voice low, pleasant and ruthless: "You may have some misunderstanding about the word charming."

Another meaning of this sentence is to mock her for being unromantic and yet still flirting with others.

Later, Aixi appeared.

He acted as if nothing had happened and never looked at her again.

She felt very embarrassed.

The night passed with everyone having their own thoughts, and none of the three slept well.

In the morning, when Aixi got up, Zuo Ying was already up.

After washing up, the three of them went out for breakfast.

Since there were only three of them staying in the room and no other guests, the owner gave them the key to the room so that they could store their luggage.

There is a porridge shop diagonally opposite the inn.

Mu Jingpei asked Aixi's opinion: "Drink porridge?"

Aixi nodded.

"You guys go ahead. I haven't packed my luggage yet, so I'll just buy some buns nearby." Zuo Ying looked at Mu Jingpei, "It's not convenient for us to go the rest of the way, so I won't go with you today."

She was leaving, Aixi's eyes lit up.

"You're not going to stay with us?" Mu Jingpei's attitude was as if nothing had happened last night, and there was a hint of regret in her tone.

Zuo Ying was a little surprised and couldn't figure out what was going on with his attitude.

But after last night, she has decided to stay away from this man.

She said uncomfortably, "Could you please take me to the bus station later?"

"Okay." Mu Jingpei handed her the room key.

After Zuo Ying left, Aixi asked, "Don't you want her to leave?"

Mu Jingpei heard the resentment in her tone and deliberately said, "Yes, a little."

Entering the porridge shop, Mu Jingpei ordered two bowls of beef porridge and a basket of soup dumplings. Aixi is easy to feed, and she eats everything except peanuts, so it is most convenient to order food for her.

Aixi was very silent while eating.

Mu Jingpei just wanted her to give up those thoughts about him, so he just let her go and didn't try to find a topic to talk about.

Aixi drank half a bowl of porridge and put down the spoon.

Seeing this, Mu Jingpei could no longer remain silent. She frowned and asked, "Is that all you're eating?"

She usually enjoys every meal.

Aixi nodded.

Mu Jingpei picked up her spoon and handed it to her: "Eat more. Don't cry if you get hungry on the way."

Aixi refused to take the spoon: "I won't cry over something like this."

She can be very stubborn when she gets angry.

Mu Jingpei had to persuade her in another way: "Aren't you the one who cherishes food the most? Are you wasting food when you're angry?"

It turned out that he knew she was angry, but he just pretended not to know before.

Wasting food is indeed bad.

She could never win the argument with him.

Aixi lowered her eyes, took the spoon and ate silently.

Mu Jingpei gave her another soup dumpling and before she could refuse, she said, "Don't waste it."

This reminded Aixi of when she was at Mr. Zhang and Mrs. Zhang's house, he would always give her the chicken legs from the chicken soup.

Her heart warmed up and she felt a little bit of anticipation. She asked tentatively in a muffled voice, "Mu Jingpei, would you like other types?"

Mu Jingpei answered without hesitation: "No."

It’s not that I won’t, it’s just that I won’t like her.

Seeing Aixi's face almost buried in the bowl, Mu Jingpei's mental preparation after getting up showed signs of collapse again.

The little girl has been feeling depressed and has not smiled since yesterday afternoon.

He felt a little reluctant.

After Aixi slowly finished her breakfast, they returned to the inn.

Zuo Ying was not in the room, not only that, her luggage was also gone.

Aixi glanced at Mu Jingpei and said coldly, "It seems that he has left."

Mu Jingpei said "tsk". Even the little girl would tease him.

Zuo Ying just asked him to send her off, but she left on her own in the blink of an eye, which was a bit strange. But Mu Jingpei didn't care about this kind of passerby.

"We are ready to go too."

He sat down on the bed and prepared to pack his luggage when he suddenly felt something was wrong.

When he rummaged through his luggage, he found that his wallet, cell phone, camera and all his valuables were gone.
