A Blue Romance slowly came to a halt at the airport entrance.
“Miss, we’ve arrived.”
“Mm.”
Mu Qingxue nervously pushed open the car door.
Staring at the airport entrance, she had to admit she was incredibly tense.
Qiuxue followed behind and, seeing her young lady so nervous that her toes curled into the ground, secretly chuckled.
She had to say, her young lady was really cute like this.
Mu Qingxue took out her phone and sent a message to Chen Xiaoyan on Penguin, asking where she was.
Chen Xiaoyan: In the main hall. Are you here? I’ll come out then.
Mu Qingxue: Okay.
Not two minutes later, Chen Xiaoyan appeared in their sight, phone in hand.
“Over here, over here!”
Qiuxue waved at her in greeting.
Chen Xiaoyan immediately saw the two of them by the entrance.
They were truly eye-catching.
No, it was the luxury car behind them that stood out.
It drew the gaze of almost everyone nearby.
“Hello!”
Chen Xiaoyan jogged over and waved to both Mu Qingxue and Qiuxue.
“Greetings, Xiaoyan Dalao!”
Qiuxue called out with a bright smile.
Her greeting made Chen Xiaoyan so embarrassed that she reached up and scratched her cheek.
“Don’t call me Dalao. That’s just in the game—just call me Xiaoyan in real life.”
Qiuxue didn’t agree.
Instead, she glanced at Mu Qingxue beside her.
Mu Qingxue’s face was expressionless and cold, showing not a hint of emotion.
Left with no choice, the suffering Qiuxue decided to play the mood-maker and spoke up, “Miss, isn’t Xiaoyan Dalao just as good-looking as in the game?”
“Mm,” Mu Qingxue responded flatly with a single word.
Cold and aloof.
If you want an example of coldness, this was it—every word measured and precious.
Chen Xiaoyan didn’t seem to mind.
Maybe this was just the personality Miss Mu was supposed to have.
After all, being a young lady, a bit of pride and aloofness was normal.
Qiuxue was left speechless.
She really had nothing to say about her young lady.
Just moments ago, she’d been so nervous she could die, and now she suddenly acted like a different person.
“Qingxue… uh, good morning.”
Chen Xiaoyan smiled and waved at Mu Qingxue.
Her smile was stiff, as if something was keeping her from relaxing.
“Good,” Mu Qingxue replied with another single word.
“Uh…”
Now it was Chen Xiaoyan’s turn to panic.
Did Mu Qingxue see through her facade and get angry?
Online and in the game, she was never like this.
Qiuxue witnessed all of this, slapped her forehead, and was utterly speechless.
She understood now.
Her young lady hadn’t changed at all.
She was just too nervous to speak.
Don’t be fooled by how eloquent she was in the game or online.
In real life, besides family, she had never spoken to anyone face to face.
And she rarely left the house, let alone met outsiders.
Sigh, words couldn’t describe it.
“Xiaoyan Dalao, Miss, let’s get in the car first. We’re heading to the outskirts for the meet-up.”
“Okay.”
At this moment, Chen Xiaoyan was like a little child who’d made a mistake, obediently following behind Qiuxue.
She felt sure Mu Qingxue had noticed something.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so cold.
Blue Romance, back seat.
Breathing in the plum blossom scent from Mu Qingxue’s side, Chen Xiaoyan nervously clasped her hands together, stealing glances at her again and again.
She wanted to just ask directly.
But she didn’t have the courage.
Still, maybe she could drop a hint.
“Qingxue, are you still angry that I didn’t reply to you?”
“No.”
Mu Qingxue’s answer was much smoother than before, with less of that previous coldness.
“Then why are you…”
“A bit nervous.”
As she spoke, a faint blush swept across Mu Qingxue’s icy face.
Chen Xiaoyan was dumbfounded.
What the heck?
You, the Mu family’s young lady, only daughter of the richest family in Central Province, and you’re nervous?
Are you kidding me?
It’s not like you’re a shut-in who never leaves the house.
What’s there to be nervous about?
“Xiaoyan, you look great in that outfit.”
Mu Qingxue forced herself to say after a long while.
“You designed it, of course it looks good.”
Chen Xiaoyan replied casually.
Mu Qingxue was wearing the Shushan Sect’s outfit: white clothes, ethereal as an immortal (Yihua: candidate for cultural heritage).
It was clearly just a casual comment, but to Mu Qingxue it was like a priceless treasure, filling her with happiness and excitement.
Hehe, was Xiaoyan complimenting her?
“I thought you wouldn’t wear it.”
“How could I not? You worked so hard to design it for me, of course I have to wear it.”
“Mm, it was a bit of work.”
“So, if I didn’t wear it, what kind of person would I be?”
Chen Xiaoyan grinned, making a small joke.
Originally, she thought she’d be really nervous meeting Mu Qingxue.
But she wasn’t.
From the moment she saw her, especially in that white outfit, it was as if she’d stepped right into the game—everything felt so natural.
Perhaps because Chen Xiaoyan was at ease, Mu Qingxue also relaxed a lot, a smile appearing on her face.
“Then why didn’t you reply to my messages last night? Was that drumming and noise this morning nice?”
Chen Xiaoyan paused, realization dawning, and pointed at Mu Qingxue.
“Hey~ So that bunch of lunatics this morning was sent by you!”
“Well, you didn’t reply to my messages.”
Mu Qingxue’s lips curled as she glanced at her.
“I really didn’t see them… Wait a minute, how did you know which neighborhood I lived in?”
“Did you investigate me?”
Facing Chen Xiaoyan’s questioning look, Mu Qingxue didn’t hide anything.
She told her about the drone following her last night.
Chen Xiaoyan was instantly numb.
So all that wandering around last night was for nothing?
“Just wait, I’ll move as soon as I get home,” Chen Xiaoyan muttered in frustration.
“You’re not allowed to move.”
Mu Qingxue suddenly stared at her seriously.
“You can control me?”
“Yes. Also, I have something to tell you—my parents want to meet you.”
Chen Xiaoyan’s eyes widened in shock.
She pressed herself against the car door, staring at Mu Qingxue in disbelief.
“You… what did you say?”
“My parents want! To! Meet! You!”
“Wait, Qingxue, why do your parents want to meet me?”
Chen Xiaoyan looked confused.
The car fell silent immediately, the atmosphere growing odd.
With Mu Qingxue looking at her like a spurned lover, Chen Xiaoyan really couldn’t take it.
“Xiaoyan, don’t you get what I mean?”
“I…”
Chen Xiaoyan’s face was burning red, unable to utter a word.
Of course she understood.
That’s why she was playing dumb—girl.
What you like isn’t me, it’s Chen Xiaoyan from the game.
“Qingxue, isn’t this all a bit fast?”
“What are you thinking?”
Mu Qingxue covered her mouth, chuckled softly, and explained, “My parents just want to see you, that’s all.”
“Really?”
“Of course. What did you think, that I was asking you to marry into the Mu family right away?”
Mu Qingxue’s gaze was so provocative that Chen Xiaoyan didn’t dare meet her eyes, looking out the car window in defeat and with a guilty conscience.
“Qingxue, I’m also a girl.”
“I know. My parents don’t object either.”
At these words, Chen Xiaoyan’s mouth twitched uncontrollably.
What kind of immortal parents are the Mu family?
Their only daughter dating another girl, and not only do they not stop her, they’re actively supportive—are they just afraid the Mu family line will continue or what?
