"Report this to your mother truthfully," he said as he walked past Mu Yuhao and walked out of the cafe without glancing back.
He initially wanted to finish his coffee before leaving, yet he lost his appetite as this woman did not know when to back off.
She was not sure, but Jing Wushuang had this weird impression that he was telling the woman to emulate her with regards to acting like a proper lady. It was funny to even think about it. They did not even seem to be acquaintances, there was no reason for him to say that.
Li Lisha cried out Mu Jinchen's name as she prepared to give chase but Mu Yuhao quickly blocked her with the side of his body. "Miss Li, let me take you home."
"I don't want you to take me home. I want Jinchen."
"My uncle hates people who are pestering and clingy. Miss Li, there's no need to act like that."
He wondered if he was being too sensitive, but he felt as if his uncle was either intentionally or unintentionally stealing glances at Jing Wushuang. His last words seemed to be telling Li Lisha to emulate Jing Wushuang with regards to acting like a proper lady. He had just returned from abroad, he should not have crossed paths with Wushuang prior to this; that could not be the reason his uncle was glancing at Wu Jingshuang.
His uncle was a person who highly values good upbringing and was a person who had the most elegant demeanor he knew. For someone to make him utter such words, one could tell how insane the woman before them was.
"I'm not pestering, I love him."
Mu Yuhao was speechless and stroked his forehead. He was on the brink of being utterly discomfited and exasperated. "Miss Li, please be more aware of your image. Even if you don't care about your dignity, please take into account my uncle's dignity. Is there a need for this?"
He could only block her path. The number of his uncle's admirers were as vast as the sea. How could his uncle return the love of everyone who said that they love him? To raise one's voice so shamelessly, he too, felt that he was losing his dignity.
"Get out of the way. I'll be your aunt very soon." Li Lisha ignored everything else, grabbed Mu Yuhao's arm and bit hard on it.
Mu Yuhao reeled from the pain and instinctively withdrew his arm. Li Lisha took advantage of the opportunity to hurriedly rush after Mu Jinchen.
He wagged his hand and watched her chase after his uncle. Well, he tried his best.
After witnessing such a farce this early in the morning, Jing Wushuang could not help but feel amused; she felt a lot more cheerful. Incompatible gender? What a solid reason to reject someone with.
She heard from a distance that the man was telling his assistant to get a restraining order to prevent Li Lisha from coming within three meters of his radius, and so on.
"Sorry you had to see that," said Mu Yuhao as he sat down grudgingly. "Short of having the words 'strangers, do not approach' engraved onto his forehead, his aura usually repelled many suitors, but they still come scrabbling like ducks."
'Strangers, do not approach'? Jing Wushuang did not respond. She recalled the man's aura and it did seem to be the case. The corner of her mouth curled upward unconsciously.
Jing Wushuang's eyebrows were slanted slightly upward compared to the average person. She rarely smiled but she often gave people the impression that she would be the first to laugh. Not sure if it was due to the soft warm lighting in the cafe, and with the corner of her mouth curled upward slightly, it was as if she accidentally stopped time.
Mu Yuhao swallowed his saliva, cleared his throat, and decided to go all out, "Wushuang, I won't beat around the bush. I know you don't have a boyfriend and I don't have a girlfriend. I like you a lot; I've liked you since the day I met you. Would you be my girlfriend?"
Mu Yuhao finished speaking in one breath. It was like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old teenager confessing to his first love. His heart felt like it was going to explode. His eyes stared at Jing Wushuang and waited for her reply.
