Chapter 455 - Her Greatest Wish (1/2)

As she was staring out the misty gla.s.s window in a daze, Mu Feichi’s face suddenly appeared outside the window. She was immediately taken aback.

She sucked in a breath and stepped back. She glared at the man who was standing outside and said in mock anger, “Young Marshal Mu, can you not be so scary?”

“Come on down. I’ll wait for you at the door.” Saying that, Mu Feichi turned around and climbed down.

Yun Xi sighed and turned to look at the alarm clock on her bedside table. It was already 11 o’clock in the evening, and everyone in her family would probably be asleep by now.

She picked out a red scarf, changed her coat, put on some fancy shoes, and walked out quietly, grabbing an apple from the table as she pa.s.sed.

Before leaving, Yun Xi specially instructed the housekeeper that if someone went to her room and found her missing, she should tell them that she had gone to the Chen family’s house.

That was her tried-and-true excuse that she had used repeatedly. Her father wouldn’t doubt it.

Once outside, Yun Xi saw the fancy vehicle parked with the door of the front pa.s.senger seat half open.

She got in and glanced at the man in the driver’s seat. It was the first time she’d seen him driving this car.

Qi Yuan or Feng Rui were usually the ones driving. Now, his highness Young Marshal Mu was sitting in the driver’s seat. For some inexplicable reason, he appeared especially suave.

She glanced at his black wool coat. Perhaps because they were like-minded people, he had also put on a red scarf for the occasion.

“Young Marshal Mu, where are we going?”

She was actually reluctant to go out on Christmas Eve.

Everywhere would be filled with lovesick couples showing off nauseating PDA.

Mu Feichi turned to look at her. His eyes fell on the red scarf around her neck. With her adorable face buried in the thick scarf, she appeared even more lovely and charming than usual.

His sullen face brightened up a bit, and he started the car. From the mirthful expression in his eyes, he was obviously in high spirits. “You’ll know when we arrive.”

“Okay!” Yun Xi nodded, then took out the apple she’d brought from the pocket of her jacket and put it in front of his mouth. “It’s Christmas Eve, so please take a bite, Young Marshal Mu.”

Her only hope for people like him, who worked in such a cutthroat business industry, was to keep as safe as possible.

Eating apples on Christmas Eve allegedly kept you safe for the entire year.
