Chapter 105: Half-asleep?
In the blink of an eye, Saturday had already turned into night with the two of them busy the whole day.
From cleaning the small house to going out to buy all kinds of fruits and daily items, both of them were completely exhausted.
Especially Lin Muxi, whose body hadn’t fully recovered yet. After spending the day cleaning and running around with her good bro, she came back home so tired she could barely keep going.
Even though she kept saying that all of this was unnecessary, every time she saw her good bro busy doing things, she would still obediently go over to help. Even when Mo Ziyang told her to rest, she refused.
After all, she was about to meet his parents. If his parents came to her place, at least the house would look presentable. Besides, this was her own home too. She couldn’t just let her good bro do everything while she did nothing.
Not only that, Mo Ziyang even drove to the school to bring back some of Lin Muxi’s clothes from her wardrobe. He spent a long time with her in the room, mixing and matching outfits until they finally found one that looked good enough for her to wear to the airport tomorrow.
“After a whole day, I feel like I’m going to die from exhaustion...”
Collapsing onto the small bed after her shower, Lin Muxi let her legs dangle off the side, staring blankly at the ceiling.
She really felt like her body was falling apart. She thought it would just be some simple preparations, but who knew her good bro would prepare for the entire day...
Of course, it made sense to put in this effort when facing his mother, but she couldn’t help complaining a little. The truth was, she was just too tired to do anything more than talk.
Seeing the little fool lying on the bed looking so worn out, Mo Ziyang sat beside her and gently rubbed her head to comfort her.
“Hang in there. Look, everything is ready now.”
“Tch... If I knew, I would’ve just stayed home playing with my phone instead of helping you...”
She muttered, then stared blankly at the man who had worked so hard for her all day. Her lips curved up slightly without her even realizing it.
She never thought a young master like him would show this kind of side. And honestly, sometimes she felt that just being like this with her good bro was actually pretty nice.
Of course, that small smile didn’t escape Mo Ziyang’s eyes.
“What’s so funny?” He pinched her cheek curiously, wondering what she was secretly laughing about.
“Ah... nothing! I wasn’t laughing.”
Seeing him staring at her, Lin Muxi blushed and quickly turned her head. She couldn’t let him know what was going on in her heart.
She pushed him gently with her little hands. “Go take a shower already. I want to sleep, I’m dead tired today.”
Mo Ziyang had no choice. Seeing that Lin Muxi was already hiding under the blanket playing with her phone, he gave up teasing her. After setting the alarm on his phone, he prepared to shower and then go to bed with her.
But just as he was about to leave the room, Lin Muxi suddenly pulled him back with her phone in hand.
“What is it?” Mo Ziyang turned his head.
“Didn’t you say the other day that if I wore a skirt, you would agree to do one thing for me?”
“Yeah, so... have you decided what it is?”
Seeing her nod, he took the phone she handed over. On the screen was a payment page.
Mo Ziyang raised his eyebrows when he saw the amount: 648.
Was that it? Only 648 for him to agree to something???
“You’re sure... just 648???”
Mo Ziyang looked speechlessly at Lin Muxi, who was lying on the bed, waiting obediently for her good bro to pay for her.
“Ah…” Hearing that, Lin Muxi was stunned by Mo Ziyang’s words, and carefully asked again, “Could it be… even more than that?”
“You really underestimate your good bro. Even ten times 648 is nothing to me.”
Before Lin Muxi could react, Mo Ziyang had already bought her ten sets of 648 and handed the phone back to her.
Seeing her in-game items suddenly multiply more than ten times, Lin Muxi was so happy she couldn’t hide it.
As expected of her good bro, spending that much money without even blinking. She had felt a little guilty before about Mo Ziyang spending his money, but now it seemed totally unnecessary.
Watching Lin Muxi happily holding the phone, Mo Ziyang fondly rubbed her head, then leaned over curiously and asked,
“What game is this? I’ll download it too and play with you.”
“Ah… better not.”
“Why? Isn’t it good if I play with you?”
“No way. With your kind of spending, you’d just end up bullying people.”
With a look of dislike, Lin Muxi pushed away her bro who leaned closer, giving him no kindness at all. She had no good impression of heavy-spending players.
After all, as a normal free-to-play gamer, she had often been forced to play alongside such “whales.” She had seen matches where players ended up with ridiculous scores, it was nothing new to her.
And now, after freeloading so much money from her good bro, of course she had to try out the strongest weapon of the current patch and enjoy the thrill of dominating a match.
Meanwhile, Mo Ziyang just gave her a look that clearly said, ‘You really dare to say that to me?’
“Ahem… it’s not like it’s my money… right?”
Mo Ziyang said nothing, only gave her an expression that meant, “Go on, I’ll just keep listening.”
“Ugh, hurry and go take a shower, why are you staring at me? Go, go, go.”
Seeing Mo Ziyang still standing there, Lin Muxi got a little annoyed and pushed him toward the door, urging him to wash up.
That scene made Mo Ziyang laugh without knowing why. After patting her head, he left the room smiling.
Only after sending him away did Lin Muxi finally let out a sigh of relief. She lay on the bed, played with her phone for a while, and soon fell asleep.
The next morning, she was shaken awake by Mo Ziyang at her side.
“Lazy pig, wake up.”
“Ugh… isn’t today the weekend? Why are you waking me up…”
Half-awake, Lin Muxi squinted her eyes and sat up, her little face full of confusion.
Mo Ziyang sighed at this silly girl, then flicked her forehead with his finger.
“Wahhhh—!”
With a cry of pain, Lin Muxi, holding her forehead, finally remembered—they had to go to the airport today to meet Mo Ziyang’s parents.
“Now you remember? Do you need me to do it again?”
Mo Ziyang reached out his hand again.
Covering her head, Lin Muxi quickly said, “I remember, I remember, don’t hit me, it really hurts!”
“You can even forget something this important?”
“I was just too tired yesterday… you can’t blame me completely…”
Lin Muxi hugged her head, eyes watery, looking at her bro pitifully.
Honestly, it was his fault for dragging her everywhere yesterday until she was exhausted. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have overslept and forgotten something this important.
“You…” Mo Ziyang shook his head, softened by her pitiful look, and gently patted her head. “Go wash up, we’re leaving soon.”
After about ten minutes of getting ready, with Mo Ziyang helping Lin Muxi put on a light-blue sailor outfit, the two of them set off together toward the Airport.
