Beichen Rui's hand on Ye Xinluo's shoulder tightened instinctively, but he couldn't let her notice anything amiss, so he sat next to her without changing his expression.
Mu Xue wore a gentle smile on her face, "Hello, I'm Mu Xue. Nice to meet you. What's your name?"
There was a hint of a different emotion in the gaze directed at Ye Xinluo, but it quickly flashed by and returned to normal.
"I'm Ye Xinluo. Nice to meet you."
There were inevitably many topics for women to chat about, and before long, the two of them were engaged in conversation.
Mu Xue seemed to like Ye Xinluo very much, smiling with curved brows and eyes, sharing odd stories with her. Ye Xinluo switched seats with Beichen Rui to sit next to her, quietly listening to her speak.
When hearing something funny, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Ling Haoyu looked at their harmonious interaction, a slight smile curling his lips, and when he glanced at Beichen Rui, there was a hint of inscrutableness in his eyes.
