Accusations of not wanting to marry: The prosecutor pressed him relentlessly.

After Fang Youxi left, Lu Yanli's heart remained unsettled for a long time.

This was the first time he had ever seen Fang Youxi talk to him so seriously about her understanding and views on relationships.

To be honest, he was somewhat shocked.

She seemed to be the most carefree girl, proclaiming that she would not get married and did not want to have children.

Her family and friends all thought that her conflict stemmed from her parents' failed marriage, but that wasn't necessarily the whole story.

She takes relationships very seriously, just like she takes her work.

If Fang Youxi's life motto is to play games in life, then she also plays games very seriously.

If love is a gamble, then she is the most principled and disciplined participant, placing her bets and never complaining.

She is clear-headed, independent, knows how to please herself, and also gives dignity to those around her.

This girl doesn't need much sunshine around her; she herself is a little sun. It is the people around her who draw energy from her.

That includes himself.

Actually, the reason he went downstairs and knocked on her door tonight was to ask her why she hadn't thought about giving it a try with him. There's more than one man in this world than Mu Wangbei, and now that I think about it, there's really no need for that.

Ultimately, she might not actually like herself that much.

Lu Yanli was only willing to admit that he might have liked Mu Wangbei a little less, and that little bit made him fall short of Mu Wangbei's feelings.

That bastard, he's really lucky.

Still feeling annoyed, the two guys from Hong Kong came out of the bathroom and asked him if he wanted to continue the party in Lan Kwai Fong.

"Come on, since we're already here, let's find some fun, let's go!"

I used to really think that the pretty lawyer had some kind of relationship with Lu Yanli, but now it seems that they really don't.

One of them asked Lu Yanli if he could pursue her.

Lu Yanli glanced at him: "Young Master Dong, you've been going to Beicheng quite often to discuss projects these past few years. Do you know the Mu family?"

"The Mu family?" The guy paused for two seconds, then realized, "That Mu family?"

"My business partner is Mu Wangbei's girlfriend. Are you still going to pursue her?"

Another person, unfamiliar with the Beicheng social circle, asked curiously, "Which Mu family?"

The young man from Hong Kong said in a low voice, "Don't ask anymore. The name of this prosecutor Mu's grandfather is terrifying. Let's go to Lan Kwai Fong for drinks. A lawyer isn't for me."

Fang Youxi opened the door with her room card, and Mu Wangbei was asleep on the sofa, fully clothed.

The room lights were dimly lit, and the lights of Victoria Harbour outside the window made the room look dazzling and colorful.

She took off her high heels, stepped barefoot onto the soft carpet, and quietly squatted down beside him.

Mu Xiaoxiao was definitely worried about her traveling with Lu Yanli on a business trip to Hong Kong, so he found an excuse to come here on official business as well.

What a coincidence! She mentioned it briefly when they were exchanging WeChat messages the day before yesterday. She said he would probably finish his work on Thursday night and there would be a small dinner party. He flew over today.

You must have been busy all day. You have to fly back early tomorrow morning. Are you tired?

Even when she's asleep, her beauty is still so striking.

When the two were together, she always fell asleep first, and Mu Wangbei always woke up first in the morning.

Fang Youxi had never seen him asleep before. She reached out a finger to touch his eyelashes, but before she could touch them, Mu Wangbei pulled her into his arms.

"You're pretending to be asleep!"

"You've already made a move, how could I not wake up?" Mu Wangbei kissed her lips: "You're back. What time is it?"

11:10

"Were you looking at me just now, huh?"

Fang Youxi retorted, "Why would a man have such long eyelashes?"

"If it weren't for this face, would you have even tried to flirt with me on our first meeting?"

Fang Youxi laughed and said, "No, I'm rather superficial. I just like your face."

Mu Wangbei sometimes didn't know whether to be happy or helpless. Fang Youxi was obsessed with looks; she seemed to only like her own face, and didn't seem particularly interested in anything else.

Actually, he woke up as soon as Fang Youxi entered the room. Hearing the noise, he tiptoed around and didn't suddenly get up, afraid of startling her.

Last time she was home, he had just walked in and started talking when Fang Youxi got a big fright. He remembered pinching her ear to calm her down.

Unexpectedly, Fang Youxi squatted down in front of him and looked at him.

She looked at him with the sweet scent of champagne emanating from her; who could resist that?

Mu Wangbei sat up and tucked a stray tuft of her unruly bangs behind her ear: "Are you tired? I saw you wearing such high heels when you went out. Go take a shower and get some rest."

The two hugged for a while, then Fang Youxi asked, "What time is our flight tomorrow morning?"

"The 8:30 AM flight."

"Then you have to get up at six o'clock. You go first, and get a good night's sleep and don't cause any trouble."

He didn't even bring a change of clothes that morning. When Fang Youxi went out for a social engagement, Mu Wangbei went downstairs and bought a set of clothes at the shopping mall next door. He asked the housekeeper to take them to be washed and dried. It was already past ten o'clock when they were delivered, so he only managed to doze off for a short while.

Do you have work tomorrow morning?

Fang Youxi got up to go to the dressing room to change out of her dress: "That's all. I can sleep in tomorrow morning and go to the airport at noon."

……

It was already 12:30 when I finished tidying up and got back to bed.

Some people say they won't cause any trouble, but they still insist on dragging her into the bathroom.

Let him be. Anyway, she's not the one who has to get up at six o'clock tomorrow morning to catch the early flight.

Fang Youxi was tired but not sleepy. She leaned against the headboard and scrolled through her phone. Lu Yanli had indeed sent her a ten-yuan red envelope.

Just three minutes ago, President Lu updated his WeChat Moments.

The tagline is: "Long live freedom!"

The post included two pictures: one of Lan Kwai Fong, a famous street in Hong Kong, and the other of a swaying whiskey glass.

This person has really good energy.

I guess he went to another party with his friends.

Thinking of the few words they had exchanged that night, Fang Youxi laughed again. If it weren't for legal aid, the fact that they could go out for drinks meant they had figured things out, which was good. Why did she have to compete with Mu Wangbei? She was caught in the middle as a tool, which was rather innocent.

She didn't think she had that much charm to make President Lu so devoted to her.

He and Mu Wangbei were enemies in their past lives, and they had to fight to see who was superior.

Mu Wangbei took a moment to calm down before coming out of the bathroom. To save time, the two of them took a shower together. Just a moment ago, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as "being completely infatuated and living a life-or-death experience".

He's like he's addicted; he clearly misses her, so he comes to see her, and once he sees her, he can't help himself.

Stop looking at your phone and go to sleep.

Fang Youxi turned off her phone and the lights. She didn't seem sleepy at all, and nestled in Mu Wangbei's arms, wanting to chat with him: "Were you classmates with Lu Yanli before?"

"Um."

"You two used to be on good terms?"

"Um"

It's not just good, it's even better than being with Jiang Chengyun and Chi Mo.

"No wonder." Fang Youxi couldn't imagine how these two became such good friends. She found it quite amusing: "Actually, it's a real shame about you two."

"Go to sleep, sweetie, I have to catch an early flight tomorrow."

Mu Wangbei didn't want to talk about Lu Yanli during this tender time, not at all!
