Chapter 1375: Sharing a Bed as Three. Their Scheming Aunt

Yun Jian’s refusal was direct without leaving any room for discussion. Her decisiveness left everyone in a stupor that even Old Sir Mu himself was a little astonished.
In the past, people could not wait to pander to him. Today, however, he had personally invited Yun Jian only for her to reject him on the spot. This had never happened before.
Despite his slight startle, Old Sir Mu gulped and told Yun Jian, “Uh… okay, girlie, you’ve got to come spend time here when you’re free then!”
“Mn.” Yun Jian nodded this time. She would naturally come here since Mu Ying was here.
“Yun Jian, let’s go.” Mu Ying pulled Yun Jian’s hand to head for where her room was in the mansion directly.
Just as they started walking, Mu Ying remembered Leng Hanzhe and turned to glance at him blankly to tell him, “You can leave first.”
She went to her room with Yun Jian after that, ignoring Old Sir Mu and everyone else who was standing at the training ground.
Luckily, Old Sir Mu knew Mu Ying well and could guess that Yun Jian was surely up to par as his granddaughter’s friend.
“Alright, off you go to do whatever you were doing.” The old man chuckled dryly and brought his men away to attend to their serious matters.
Mu Rou stomped her foot on the spot while Yang held her back on her shoulders. Seeing that Mu Rui had left too, Mu Rou huffed at Yang, “Mom, I’m so angry!”
“Calm down now. Hmph, I don’t believe that I can’t take care of those two brats!” Yang snorted furiously as she coaxed her daughter before looking at Yun Jian and Mu Ying’s retreating silhouettes. There was actually no reason for her to be mad at all.
…
Yun Jian and Mu Ying had not gotten far when a sweet voice of a girl came from behind them. “Mu Ying-jiejie, wait for me!”
Yun Jian had just blinked at the sound when a petite form had already slung an arm around hers and Mu Ying’s shoulders. Yun Jian did not avoid it since it was Mu Shuang.
Mu Shuang was close to Mu Ying and she liked Yun Jian as well.
“I was the one who called for grandpa just now. I was worried that Aunt Yang and Mu Rou would make my brother bully you both!” Mu Shuang said happily as she stood between Yun Jian and Mu Ying with her arms around their shoulders.
Mu Shuang was only one year younger than Yun Jian’s current body, which meant that she was actually two years younger than Yun Jian truly was, but Mu Shuang gave off the feeling of a baby sister who should be protected at all cost.
Even a cold person like Mu Ying could not help ruffling Mu Shuang’s head as she praised softly, “Good girl.”
“Hehe.” Mu Shuang ducked her head shyly before she turned to ask Yun Jian, “Jiejie, can I sleep with you and Mu Ying-jiejie tonight?”
“Up to you,” Yun Jian answered in three simple words.
“Yay, that’s awesome! I’ll go get my blanket then…” Mu Shuang ran off to her room giddily.
…
Dinner at Mu Family was had with everyone sitting down together. All of them, aside from Yang and Mu Rou, were incredibly nice to Yun Jian.
Before they slept at night, Mu Ying’s mother, Tian Fangfang, had even changed the beddings and asked Yun Jian to let her know if there was anything she was not used to, acting extremely courteous.
1:30am—Yun Jian, Mu Ying and Mu Shuang were lying on the bed and still chatting. To be particular, it was Mu Shuang who had been talking all this while.
“Jiejie, I think you both are amazing. You’re both my role models…”
Mu Shuang talked a lot. Just when she was about to say more, her mouth was covered by Yun Jian abruptly and she saw the latter making a shushing gesture to her in the dark. She clamped her mouth shut immediately.
Just as she did, they heard incredibly soft noises on the hallway outside the room that they would not have caught if they did not listen carefully.
“Mom, are they really asleep?”
“They must be. I noticed that they’ve gone to bed at 9:30pm. How could they still be awake by now? It’s been almost four hours! Softer, don’t let others find out…”
