Lu Shao is cunning; Miss Nan has fallen for his tricks again.

Chapter 161 Goodbye by fate
Yan Xiaoxiao carefully pulled out her arm, which had gone numb from being pressed down by Mo Jingyu. Looking at the mess of clothes on the ground, she got up, picked up a bathrobe from the ground, and put it on.

She glanced back at Mo Jingyu's sleeping face, and her movements as she tied her bathrobe slowed down.

She chuckled softly, picked up the cigarettes and lighter from the table, and went to the balcony.

Yan Xiaoxiao leaned against the railing, took a cigarette from the pack, put it in her mouth, and lit it with a lighter.

The weather wasn't great today; it was gloomy and looked like it was going to rain, and the wind was unusually strong. Yan Xiaoxiao pulled her bathrobe tighter around herself, showing no sign of wanting to go back.

Mo Jingyu touched the pillow beside him, but didn't find Yan Xiaoxiao. He quickly opened his eyes.

He quickly scanned every corner of the room but couldn't see Yan Xiaoxiao, and there was no sound of water coming from the bathroom.

But looking at the clothes scattered on the ground, he was certain that Yan Xiaoxiao hadn't left.

So, where will she go?
Mo Jingyu picked up the bathrobe at the foot of the bed and draped it over herself, her eyes filled with disappointment.

He picked up the kettle on the table, poured himself a glass of water, and glanced out casually to see Yan Xiaoxiao standing on the balcony smoking.

He watched Yan Xiaoxiao's retreating figure with a smile in his eyes, put down the glass in his hand, and walked towards the balcony.

As soon as I opened the glass door to the balcony, a strong smell of tobacco hit me.

He couldn't stand the smell of smoke and coughed twice unconsciously.

Hearing the sound from behind, Yan Xiaoxiao turned around and saw Mo Jingyu leaning against the wall with her arms crossed, looking at Yan Xiaoxiao with a smile.

"What are you laughing at?" Yan Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow at him.

"It's nothing, it's quite cold outside, aren't you going in?"

Yan Xiaoxiao waved the cigarette in her hand. "Smoking? I'll go in after the smell of smoke dissipates. By the way, do you want one?"

"No, I don't smoke." Mo Jingyu waved his hand, then turned and picked up his coat from the sofa to put on Yan Xiaoxiao. "It's windy outside, don't catch a cold. Go back inside as soon as the smoke gets a little stronger."

"I understand, you can go in now."

"Hmm, what would you like to eat for breakfast? I'll order."

"I'm fine with anything." With that, she closed the glass door to the balcony without waiting for a reply.

Yan Xiaoxiao smoked two more cigarettes before going inside.

By the time she finished washing up, the food Mo Jingyu had ordered had already been delivered.

She yawned, sat down on the sofa, picked up a small steamed bun, stuffed it into her mouth, and began to eat voraciously.

She woke up at 8 a.m. today and was starving. She didn't care about etiquette anymore; all she wanted was to fill her stomach.

Mo Jingyu found Yan Xiaoxiao's ravenous eating adorable; her little face and mouth were stuffed full of food, making her look as cute as a little squirrel.

He placed the cooled porridge in front of Yan Xiaoxiao, saying, "The porridge is cold, you can eat it directly."

"Thank you." Yan Xiaoxiao picked up the spoon and stirred gently.

After checking out of the hotel, Yan Xiaoxiao sat in the car, putting on makeup, and asked Mo Jingyu, "Where are you going? I'll give you a ride."

She applied lipstick in front of the mirror, pursed her lips, and admired herself in the mirror with satisfaction.

"Jingzhou University."

Yan Xiaoxiao closed the mirror and started the car.

The car had just started when my phone rang. "Hey Dad, what's up?"

"You have the nerve to ask me what's wrong? Did you stay out all night again? Where did you go gallivanting off to again?" Yan Jingde was both angry and somewhat helpless.

But he was his only son, so what could he do? He could only spoil him.

"Oh, Dad, I'm over twenty now, shouldn't I have some adult nightlife?" Yan Xiaoxiao retorted.

Mo Jingyu sat in the passenger seat, watching the father and daughter "confront each other".

"You've been back from Brazil for so long, and you haven't even gone to the company. All you do is play. Honey, can't you just give your dad a break?"

"Okay, I'll head back in a bit. I'll go to the company tomorrow." After chatting for so long, Yan Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered that Mo Jingyu was still with her, and she instantly felt uncomfortable.

"Uh, Dad, I have to go now." She hung up the phone before Yan Jingde could speak.

Her lips twitched; she wanted to say something but didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, the hotel was not far from Kyungju University; it only took about half an hour to get there.

Yan Xiaoxiao stopped the car and noticed that Mo Jingyu hadn't gotten out for a long time. She looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Is there anything else you can do?"

"Will we be able to meet again next time?" Mo Jingyu looked up at Yan Xiaoxiao, hesitated for a moment, and asked nervously.

Yan Xiaoxiao was somewhat surprised, then chuckled, "If we are destined to meet, then we will naturally meet."

If it's not meant to be, you can't force it.

"Can I add your contact information?" Mo Jingyu asked tentatively.

When Yan Xiaoxiao met Mo Jingyu's pitiful gaze, the ice in her heart melted a little.

"Well, that works too." She casually pulled out a phone and showed it a QR code.

Mo Jingyu happily scanned the QR code and only got off the bus after confirming that he had added the contact information.

After Mo Jingyu got out of the car, Yan Xiaoxiao drove away without hesitation.

Mo Jingyu was somewhat disappointed. Watching the departing car, he wished Yan Xiaoxiao would turn around and look at him, but all that remained was a trail of white exhaust fumes.

Mo Jingyu opened the dormitory door, looking utterly dejected.

"Hey, Jingyu, why didn't you go back to the dorm last night?" One of her roommates, who was washing up, poked her head out from the bathroom.

The man was shirtless, wearing only black sweatpants, with neatly tousled hair and exceptionally well-developed arm muscles.

Mo Jingyu glanced at it and said in a muffled voice, "I had something to do yesterday so I didn't come back."

Noticing Mo Jingyu's tone, the man put down his wash cup and casually grabbed a towel to wipe the toothpaste foam from his mouth.

"What's wrong? Did you suffer some injustice?" The man put his arm around Mo Jingyu's shoulder. "What injustice did you suffer? Tell me, and I'll get revenge for you." The man's tone was forceful.

"I'm really fine." Mo Jingyu pushed away the arm that was draped over his shoulder.

No sooner had he finished speaking than the dormitory door was pushed open again.

Two men walked in together, chatting and laughing, carrying takeout.

"Yan Yixu, have breakfast."

Yan Yixu reached out and took the takeout that was handed to him. "Thanks, Yu Jing. I'll treat you to dinner another day."

"It's nothing, if you take it to heart, you'll hurt my feelings." Yu Jing touched his chest, looking heartbroken.

"Why did you study management? You should have studied acting," Wang Heqing said in a sarcastic tone.

"You're showing off again, aren't you?" Yu Jing rolled her eyes at Wang Heqing.

"Jingyu, have you had breakfast? Do you want to eat something together?" Wang Heqing opened the takeout box.

"No, I've already eaten." Mo Jingyu took off her coat, climbed up the ladder, and lay down to sleep.

The three people below looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Yi Xu, what happened to him?"

Yan Yixu paused in his hand, which was holding a small steamed bun. "Why are you asking me? I don't know either."

"There were only the two of you in the dorm just now, didn't you know?"

"I...I don't know." Yan Yixu's mouth was full of steamed buns, and he shook his head blankly.
