Compared to Xia Wen and Huan Yan, whose intentions were obviously far from pure, Mu Qiansè seemed much more normal.
Bai Zhi had been sitting idly in the office all day. He had just been about to find something to fill his stomach when Mu Qiansè showed up at his door carrying a lunch box.
"I made you a late-night snack. It's all your favorite food, so eat some while it's still hot."
With one hand, Mu Qiansè tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear. After smiling at him, she placed the lunch box on the table.
"You've been busy all day. You should take a break too."
"Uh..."
As a cook, Mu Qiansè's cooking had always been reliable.
It was just that there were two people hiding in the wardrobe beside him and another sitting right in front of him, so Bai Zhi ate this late-night meal with his nerves on edge...
"By the way, how did you know I was here?"
To avoid the awkward atmosphere, Bai Zhi tried to make small talk.
"Didn't I hear that you were still over in the Music Kingdom before?"
"Thumbelina told me."
Resting her chin on one hand, Mu Qiansè blinked at him.
"The one sitting on Mu Mu's shoulder. She can't talk and only knows how to hold up little signs, but she seemed pretty lively... She said you were all alone in an empty room and might be very lonely."
Bai Zhi: "..."
...He suddenly felt like he had found the culprit.
"How was it? Want more? If you're not full, I can go back and make something else for you."
Glancing at the nearly empty lunch box, Mu Qiansè took the initiative to ask.
"Don't worry, I prepared plenty of ingredients. It won't be any trouble."
