Chapter 374 - MU YANXIAOS NEWS (2) (1/2)
”Look, Mu Yanxiao, I had to meet with someone and I don't want to appear rude by being late. So if you could just spare me tonight with your drama. Please, not now. Let us just deal about it some other time.”
Mu Lingxi replied with a nonchalant tone.
If there would be the last thing that Mu Lingxi ever wanted to do, that was to speak and play with Mu Yanxiao's silly little wordplay.
And if there was also the only one least thing that Mu Lingxi wanted to happen, that was for her benefactor to misinterpret her being late as a sign of rudeness and ungratefulness.
The other party did him a huge favor before that was why Mu Lingxi did not want herself to give him a bad impression about her.
Se definitely did not want to appear bad in front of Yuna Tao of all people.
”Oh' c' mon, Lingxi. Are you certain you don't want to hear it first??? And here I am running and waiting for you all the way here just to relay this piece of news that I managed to learn with a certain amount of effort and difficulty. Then I guest your Brother Gaoyan was not that important for you at all, unlike what I thought him to be. Brother Gaoyan will surely felt disappointed once he learned about this, cousin.”
Mu Yanxiao said with false sincerity. The smirk that she had on her lips gave her away.
Since Mu Yanxiao already knew where Mu Lingxi's weak spot was, she decided to go aim on it and hit it straight away right at the moment she spoke.
”Mu Yanxiao, you know better than anyone else not to involved my brother on your darned and sick petty jokes!”
Mu Lingxi said in a low tone but with a hint of threat at the edge of her voice. Then with a nonchalant face, she added,
”Now, if you really got some news in him, then spill it!”
His brother Mu Gaoyan means a lot to her, or well at least that was what she knew based on the memory she had from the previous host of her body.
But even though those memories were not exactly hers, to begin with since she was only a transmigrator, her body still held some degree of sentiment over those things.
<A/n: Don't get confused though. In here, Mu Lingxi was not yet aware that she was the same missing incomplete soul of the previous host of her body >
In any case, theoretically speaking, they were still indeed family-related and there was nothing that hurt more than knowing that one of your family was missing and can be practically out there and was not in a good shape.
Yet you can't do anything to help him nor you had any idea or news of him on how he was fairing.
Mu Lingxi might look unbothered about this incident on the outside.
But the truth was thinking about her Brother Gaoyan's well being was really putting her on the edge every day.
She could not help but wonder if how was her brother? If he was alright???
Not to mention that her worries regarding her Brother Gaoyan were atop other of her concerns as well.
Life was never easy for her.
But definitely, nothing was far more important for Mu Lingxi than her brother.
And of all people, Mu Yanxiao should be the most knowledgeable about it.
”Ohh, my dear cousin, well you know how much I cared for our Brother Gaoyan, right?... I certainly cared for him as much as you do! After all, he had been a very good big brother to me as well, all these years.”
Mu Yanxiao said with an overflowing sincerity in her voice and she even put one of her hand across her ċhėst to make it looked more dramatic.
