Chapter 163: Starting Over
The figure Yin Lingyan recognized, even to the point of being very familiar.
Wasn’t that Mu Qingyi?
Mu Qingyi had walked over out of curiosity because many people had gathered here. He had just taken a leave of absence, so why was there such big news at the school again?
Mu Qingyi didn’t see Yin Lingyan, but instead saw Anna. Anna’s entire demeanor changed when she saw Mu Qingyi, “Darling.”
Hmm, Yin Lingyan’s eyes widened, but why, she shivered.
“What happened here?” Mu Qingyi asked in fluent English. Yin Lingyan could still understand this sentence. She remained silent, wanting to see when Mu Qingyi would notice her.
Hearing him speak, Anna immediately pointed pitifully in the direction Yin Lingyan was standing, saying with a hint of tears, “She called me an idiot, and it’s pure boredom to stir up trouble.”
Following the direction of Anna’s finger, Mu Qingyi was stunned, his eyes widening involuntarily. A look of surprise instantly spread across his handsome face.
Yin Lingyan smiled charmingly, captivating the hearts of the crowd, “Long time no see.”
Although she was curious why he would appear at the design school, since he was here, there must be a reason. Whether he wanted to explain it was his business.
Mu Qingyi didn’t know what to say. It was only upon their reunion after a long time that he realized the heartbeat he had tried so hard to conceal was now almost entirely surging forth.
All along, he had been deceiving himself. He had never forgotten her. Long time no see, yes, long time no see, but why hadn’t he forgotten yet?
“Long time no see.” The heartache was like eating a piece of broken glass, stuck in the mouth, unable to be swallowed or spat out.
I can get used to long distances. Love is always beyond one’s control, yes, truly beyond one’s control.
“Bitch, don’t seduce my Brother Yi.” Although Anna was a bit confused by these words, she could tell what was happening from the expression. She immediately pulled Mu Qingyi with a strong sense of possession.
Mu Qingyi immediately shook her off like a startled rabbit and said with disgust, “Shut up.”
Anna looked at him in disbelief. He had never spoken to her like this before. This time, it was all because of her.
At this moment, Anna’s impression of Yin Lingyan grew worse and worse. Of course, Yin Lingyan had never had a good impression of her either.
Under Mu Qingyi’s protection, she managed to leave safely. In fact, she could have left without Mu Qingyi, but it was simpler this way.
“Why are you in America?” Mu Qingyi began to inquire once they were at a restaurant outside.
Yin Lingyan took a sip of lemon juice and said without tasting it, “This lemon juice isn’t as good as the one in China.”
Mu Qingyi wasn’t foolish enough not to realize such an obvious topic change. Since she didn’t want to talk about it, he let it go.
Mu Qingyi regained his composure at this moment, looked at Yin Lingyan, and asked with heartache, “Are you and Han Wuyu… doing well?”
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was deeply affected. Mu Qingyi’s simple question struck Yin Lingyan’s heart, causing pain.
Yin Lingyan knew that Mu Qingyi was only asking out of care. She suddenly felt a pang of sadness. She was always cold to those who were good to her and shamelessly clung to those she disliked.
“We’re doing well. I came to America to learn design.” Yin Lingyan answered both his questions. She chose silence because it reminded her of him, but she hadn’t expected that avoiding the topic would still lead back to it.
Sooner or later, he would know. What she said was the truth; she and Han Wuyu were indeed doing well, they could still smile, and her heart was still beating.
