The demon master was beaten up

Chapter 209: Let Go

However, Lu Wenjie closed his eyes tightly, pretending not to hear, and muttered, "I don't know what you are talking about! Please don't disturb my sleep."

Seeing this, Qin Nuo couldn't help but roll his eyes and snorted in annoyance: "Stop pretending to be confused here! Anyone with a discerning eye can see that you have always had special feelings for Mo Xing. But a year or two have passed, and you two are still getting along like good friends. Oh, it's really unexpected that President Lu, who is usually so majestic and decisive, would be so timid when it comes to love!" After saying that, Qin Nuo shook his head helplessly.

As the night deepened, the room fell silent, with only the occasional sound of breathing. Lu Wenjie sat quietly by the bed, watching Qin Nuo, who had fallen asleep peacefully beside him, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. However, unlike Qin Nuo, who had quickly fallen asleep, Lu Wenjie felt no desire to sleep at all. Instead, he was overwhelmed by an inexplicable restlessness.

He gently sat up, leaning against the headboard, his gaze fixed on a corner in the darkness. His hands unconsciously tugged at his hair, as if that could ease the turmoil in his heart. His thoughts gradually drifted back to a long time ago, when he first noticed Mo Xing, this special girl.

Mo Xing's personality is as bright and warm as the summer sun, and her carefree demeanor makes people feel incredibly approachable. She's always full of energy, sometimes leaping among the crowd like a cheerful bird, sometimes like a playful breeze, bringing endless laughter and surprises. Although her bluntness can sometimes lead to her being a bit too talkative, this doesn't diminish the radiance of her kind heart.

Compared to those women who tried every possible means to get close to him, harboring ill intentions, Mo Xing was a breath of fresh air. She was devoid of pretense and hypocrisy, treating everyone with sincerity. The care and love she casually displayed captivated Lu Wenjie. Whenever he saw Mo Xing's smile and heard her hearty laughter, Lu Wenjie's mood would inevitably brighten.

However, he kept these feelings deep in his heart, never daring to express them. He feared that speaking them out would destroy their once-pure friendship. He was even more worried that Mo Xing didn't share the same feelings for him, a result that would break his heart. So, he could only silently guard her, offering her care and concern as a friend, suppressing his deep affection deep in his heart.

Mo Xing, who was sitting next door, quickly burrowed into Bai Nini's warm embrace like a wounded little animal. Burying her head deep in their embrace, she murmured, "Nini, why did you choose Qin Nuo to be your boyfriend when Senior Qian is such a good man?" Her voice was filled with confusion and resentment.

Bai Nini gently stroked Mo Xing's hair and said slowly, "My dear Xingxing, Senior Qian is indeed a very nice person. However, when it comes to relationships, sometimes it really depends on first impressions. For Senior Qian, I have more respect and a deep friendship in my heart. But the only thing missing is love! Even if Qin Nuo hadn't appeared, I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to fall in love with Senior Qian. Because his overly forbearing personality is really not my type."

Hearing this, Mo Xing couldn't help but sigh heavily, and said in a sad tone: "Alas... But now I still can't let him go! Nini, my heart really hurts so much..." As she spoke, a few crystal tears slid down her cheeks.

Seeing this, Bai Nini quickly hugged Mo Xing tightly and comforted her, "Silly girl, don't you realize that Lu Wenjie has something special about you? Don't you two always get along well together? And he knows how to tolerate and care for you!"

However, Mo Xing closed his eyes tightly, shook his head, and replied, "No, Nini. Every time I see that guy Lu Wenjie, I feel like I've been given a shot of chicken blood, and my mind is full of thoughts about how to confront him! The only time I see Senior Qian is when I get that strange feeling of blushing, heartbeating, and fluttering hearts!"

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the window onto the dining table. Qin Nuo and Bai Nini sat there, refreshed and enjoying a delicious breakfast. Their faces were filled with ease and joy, as if they had just had a beautiful dream the night before.

Just then, Lu Wenjie approached with heavy steps. Dark circles hung around his eyes, as if he'd been punched twice. He yawned constantly as he walked, clearly suffering from severe sleep deprivation. He'd only managed a brief nap near dawn.

Mo Xing staggered in next. Her once smooth, lustrous hair was now a tangled mess, as if she'd just been through a fierce battle. Her face was noticeably puffy, with her lower eyelids a dark blue, making her look utterly haggard.

Seeing Mo Xing like this, Lu Wenjie couldn't help but feel concerned and said quickly, "Hey, you don't look like you slept well. Why don't you just go back to sleep for a while?" However, Mo Xing didn't appreciate it at all. After glaring at him, he retorted angrily, "What do you care? Look at yourself first!"

Facing Mo Xing's cold words, Lu Wenjie didn't care. He just smiled slightly and continued to say gently: "Okay, but after breakfast, I'll take you home."

Unexpectedly, Mo Xing didn't buy it at all. He rolled his eyes at him again, snorted coldly and said, "Hmph! Don't worry about it. My brother will come to pick me up!" After that, he sat down at the dining table by himself and ignored Lu Wenjie.

The early morning sunlight shone through the window onto the dining table. Mo Xing had just finished a hearty breakfast and was about to get up to clean up the dishes when the doorbell suddenly rang.

Mo Xing quickly walked to the door and opened it, only to see his brother Mo Yu standing outside with a smile on his face.

At this time, Bai Nini came out of the kitchen, carrying several exquisite gift boxes. She walked over to Mo Yu, handed him the gift boxes, and said, "I heard that my sister-in-law is pregnant. This is a little gift from Qin Nuo and me. Brother Yu, take it back to nourish my sister-in-law. When I have time, I will ask Xiao Xingxing and my sister-in-law to go shopping together!"

Mo Yu accepted the gift and said with a grateful smile, "Thank you so much, Mr. Qin! Little Star, let's go home and stop bothering Mr. Lu."

Mo Xing nodded obediently and followed Mo Yu to the door. Before leaving, she looked back at Lu Wenjie, her eyes revealing a hint of complicated emotions.
