Chapter 355 Completely Different (2)_1
Situ Xin acknowledged that she had no aversion to Xiao Muli. However, she had never thought that Xiao Muli would like her. In fact, Situ Xin had never considered matters of love before.
In her past life, Situ Xin had never been in love with anyone, nor had she thought about spending her life with someone. Given her status at that time, such thoughts were not something she could afford to entertain. Perhaps as a habit from her past life, in this life, having gained familial love, Situ Xin had completely forgotten about the notion of romantic love.
Although she did not harbor romantic feelings for Xiao Muli at present, she thought that spending a lifetime with him wouldn’t be unacceptable. Therefore, Situ Xin did not immediately reject Xiao Muli.
Xiao Muli, although he did not hear the answer he desired from Situ Xin’s lips, was already very happy that she did not outright reject him. He knew that this meant he had hope, a great deal of hope. "No worries, take your time to think. Once you’ve figured it out, let me know."
"Yeah, once I’ve thought it through, I’ll tell you. Now, Brother Muli, let’s go downstairs. I’m hungry." The conversation had postponed Situ Xin’s regular mealtime, and now her stomach was protesting.
"Then let’s hurry downstairs," Xiao Muli said, hearing Situ Xin mention her hunger, he cast all thoughts of her answer to the back of his mind. He was just worried about her getting sick from hunger.
"Let’s go down. Oh, Brother Muli, wait for me after I’ve eaten. I’ll go with you to visit Grandpa Xiao." Situ Xin remembered her promise to bring Old Master Xiao some wine when she saw Xiao Muli just then.
After Situ Xin had finished her breakfast and informed her grandmother, she and Xiao Muli headed toward the Xiao Family home together.
