Half an hour later, Mu Jinyu returned home.
As soon as he opened the door, Gu Xiyan, who was lying on the sofa, immediately jumped up and ran toward him in her slippers.
Looking wary, she circled around Mu Jinyu a few times, flaring her nostrils and sniffing him.
"What are you doing?"
Mu Jinyu felt bewildered and asked.
After sniffing for a while, Gu Xiyan didn't smell the perfume that Yu Linglong usually wore. She also noticed that Mu Jinyu hadn't taken a shower and even had an unpleasant smell of tar on him.
Disgusted, she furrowed her brow and put some distance between them, saying, "I thought you might have tricked my best friend into going somewhere. It seems you are quite honest, but what's with this smell of smoke?!"
Gu Xiyan knew that Mu Jinyu didn't smoke or drink much, only indulging when he was in a bad mood. Thus, she was quite curious about the smell of smoke on him.
Mu Jinyu honestly replied, "Oh, I took Linglong and her dad to the casino for some fun."
