The school beauty is aloof? Whatever, she has a younger sister.

Chapter 93 Little Pomelo, how old are you?
Chu Jiuli stood in front of her desk, packing her schoolbag. She put in the textbooks and notebooks she needed one by one.

Chu Youting sat on the edge of the bed, her hands resting quietly on her lap, her gaze occasionally glancing at her sister.

"Xiaoyou, study hard at home. The rehearsals for the New Year's Eve party have been taking up a lot of time lately."

Chu Jiuli suddenly stopped what she was doing and her gaze fell on Chu Youting.

"Mm," Chu Youting nodded.

"I'll go pick up Shishi first, and then we'll go to school together," Chu Jiuli said to Chu Youting as she slung her backpack over her shoulder.

She looked up at the wall clock; it was exactly four o'clock.

There was still some time before the agreed-upon time with Zhang Muchen. But she was always punctual and preferred to arrive early rather than be late.

"Sister, ride your bike slowly."

Chu Youting saw Chu Jiuli to the door and couldn't help but give her a word of advice.

Chu Jiuli turned around and waved to her with a smile: "Okay, Xiaoyou. I'll message you when I arrive, don't worry."

The door closed, and the room fell silent. Only Chu Youting remained.

She picked up her phone, hesitated for a moment, and then sent a message to Zhang Muchen.

My sister is gone.

On the other side, Zhang Muchen sat alone in a taxi on his way home.

Liu Wuyang said she had some business to attend to in the city and would stay an extra day, so Zhang Muchen returned alone first.

He looked down at the message Chu Youting had sent, then looked up at the driver: "Sir, how much longer until we get to Fuxing Residential Area?"

The driver glanced at the navigation: "About ten minutes, if there's no traffic."

A classic inverted sentence from Shandong Province.

Zhang Muchen nodded, mentally calculating the time.

When they arrived at Fuxing Residential Area in about ten minutes, Chu Jiuli would definitely have already gone far away.

When it's just Xiaoyouzi at home, she can go in and sit for a while after I open the door, and then I can take a look around her room.
Gee tut.

I'm actually quite excited.

Zhang Muchen smiled and replied to Chu Youting's message: [I'll be there in about ten minutes, wait for me]

On the other end of the phone, Chu Youting immediately looked around on the sofa after receiving the message.

She looked around; the house was fairly clean, but she still felt it wasn't perfect.

"That scoundrel is definitely going to come in and sit down, so I need to clean up."

Thinking to herself, Chu Youting quickly picked up the broom and started sweeping.

Should I tidy up my own room too?
No, no, I can't bring him into my room. My sister's things are still there.
A dozen minutes later, Chu Youting carefully cleaned up the floor and the bathroom.

Although her home was already very clean, she still wanted to leave Zhang Muchen with a perfect first impression.

"Even though he's a bad guy, we can't let him think our house is a mess."

Chu Youting thought so.

Little did she know that Zhang Muchen had already lowered the bar for his understanding of the world after seeing Liu Wuyang's messy room.

Even without cleaning, it doesn't feel messy.

Is your sister not home?

Zhang Muchen sent a message to confirm again.

Chu Youting: [I'm all alone...]

The message had just been sent when there was a knock on the door.

Chu Youting paused for a moment, then quickly ran to the door and carefully opened it a crack.

Outside the door, Zhang Muchen was carrying an elegant bag, a smile on her face.

"I brought you some pastries from the capital."

Chu Youting blinked, pushed the door open completely, and said softly, "Thank you, please come in."

Zhang Muchen stepped through the door, then suddenly paused, stopping in his tracks.

"What's wrong?" Chu Youting looked at him strangely and asked softly.

Zhang Muchen did not respond immediately, but stood there silently.

What about the system?
The task wasn't completed?
moment.

The system's cold voice echoed in my mind.

[Mission Completed: Knock on Chu Youting's door and talk to her about the debt issue]

[Reward: 1 yuan]

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Muchen received a text message from the bank.

[Received funds: 10000 yuan]

Zhang Muchen's eyes lit up immediately, and his gaze unconsciously turned to Chu Youting.

Chu Youting was still wondering why Zhang Muchen had stopped at the door, but the sudden eye contact between them startled her.

She saw the flicker in Zhang Muchen's eyes.

It was a strange look in her eyes, like a dragon eyeing a treasure, or a hunter spotting its prey. "Wh...what's wrong..." Chu Youting asked softly.

Zhang Muchen smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that Xiaoyouzi is getting more and more pleasing to the eye and cuter."

Chu Youting paused slightly, and a faint blush instantly appeared on her cheeks.

She has always been unable to resist Zhang Muchen's direct praise, and her heart would always race every time.

"Thank you."

Chu Youting lowered her head, her voice barely audible, like a mosquito's hum.

Zhang Muchen handed her the bag in his hand: "These are pastries I brought back from the capital. Try them."

Chu Youting took the bag and carefully opened it. Inside were several boxes of exquisitely packaged pastries.

Zhang Muchen walked into the living room, looked around, and glanced at the clean floor and neatly arranged furniture.

"Little Yuzu, your house is very clean."

"Hmm... I usually do the cleaning..." Chu Youting replied softly.

Looking at the well-behaved and gentle girl in front of him, Zhang Muchen couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

She is good at studying, well-behaved, and also good at housework.

Most importantly, it is approachable and friendly.

All of these are plus points.

Zhang Muchen casually sat down on the sofa. Chu Youting stood to the side, looking somewhat awkward.

"Sit wherever you like, make yourself at home," Zhang Muchen said.

"Oh……"

Chu Youting responded and slowly moved to the seat next to Zhang Muchen, sitting down obediently.

She sat with her hands folded on her knees, her posture very upright.

But after sitting down, Chu Youting suddenly felt that something was off about what Zhang Muchen had said earlier.

This...this seems to be my home, doesn't it?

"Here, little pomelo. Have a piece of mung bean cake."

Zhang Muchen opened the pastry box, took out a pastry, and handed it to Chu Youting.

"Thanks……"

Chu Youting took the mung bean cake and took a small bite.

The sweetness of the pastry melted in her mouth, and she couldn't help but smile.

good to eat.

Zhang Muchen watched her intently from the side.

To be honest, he really enjoyed watching Xiaoyouzi eat. Xiaoyouzi's movements were slow, elegant, and well-behaved, always making people want to look at her a few more times.

Chu Youting felt Zhang Muchen's gaze and suddenly shrank back.

She raised her eyes and said in a soft, sweet voice, "Don't...don't even think about eating anything imported..."

"?"

Zhang Muchen was stunned.

I was just admiring the way she ate, but this girl actually thought I was going to eat something imported.

Gee tut.

It seems that it has already given Xiaoyouzi PTSD.

Zhang Muchen didn't speak, and looked away.

Let the little pomelo eat in peace.

After a few seconds, he suddenly turned his head and asked, "Little Yuzu, how old are you?"

Chu Youting was slightly taken aback, and softly replied, "I...I'm 17."

"I'm not asking your age."

Zhang Muchen looked at Chu Youting, then his gaze fell on the clothes rack in front of the French windows.

There were several pieces of freshly washed underwear hanging there.

Chu Youting followed his gaze and her face instantly turned bright red.

I completely forgot to collect my underwear.
She quickly stood up and blocked the clothes rack, her voice trembling with panic: "You...you...you're not allowed to look..."

"oh."

Zhang Muchen looked away.

"Black underwear suits you quite well, Little Yuzu," Zhang Muchen said casually.

Chu Youting's entire body, from head to toe, turned bright red in an instant.

He... he saw it all.
Bad guy...
