But does Musheng care what others think inside their heads?
Of course not!
She couldn't care less whether Ma Nanji believed it or not, as long as she believed it, that was enough.
Such an excuse might work on Ma Nanji, but when it came to Ma Changying, it was best to stick to the story of having met online for now, to avoid difficult explanations later. Musheng didn't plan to keep it a secret forever; it was just that, at this point, she had no way to meet Mu Lianmiao or Bai Miya other than online. So, she decided to stick with that excuse for the time being.
Ma Nanji was dumbstruck by this excuse. He looked everywhere – left, right, up, down – and couldn't see how someone as cool, distant, and noble as Mu Lianmiao could be the type to play matching games on his phone. Could it be that these aloof, handsome men harbor princess fantasies from their age of innocence?
