Back in the living room, lying on the sofa, Mu Ningxi recalled what happened in the private room, slowly closed her eyes, and fell asleep.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Mu Ningxi was awakened by the ringing of her cell phone. She picked it up in a daze and saw that it was a call from Wang Luyao.

It’s so late, could something have happened to Luyao?

With an uneasy mood, Mu Ningxi answered the phone.

While answering the call, Mu Ningxi glanced at the time on her phone and found out that she had only slept for an hour.

"Ning Xi, did something happen between you, Gong Zhiling, and Mu Xiner? The video Gong Zhiling posted on her Moments is about to ruin the whole thing."

As soon as the call was connected, Wang Luyao's anxious voice came into Mu Ningxi's ears from the microphone.

Suddenly, Mu Ningxi's sleepiness disappeared, and she asked calmly, "What happened?"

"That bitch Mu Xin'er liked and commented on Gong Zhiling's post, calling you a cold-blooded person. Gong Zhiling shouldn't have dreamed that you would accept her again."

Wang Luyao responded with gritted teeth.

Without waiting for Mu Ningxi to speak, Wang Luyao continued, "The most abominable one is Gong Zhiling. She actually liked Mu Xiner's comment and said that she met the wrong person and didn't see your true face before. She also said that Mu Xiner is her good friend."

"They were making comments back and forth, and it really made me sick to watch."

At the end, there was a hint of roar in Wang Luyao's voice.

On the other end of the phone, Mu Ningxi was silent for a while, and then told Wang Luyao what had happened in Tianlan Pavilion before.

"Gong Zhiling is such an ungrateful person. In order to make her famous, you not only begged Meng Tianbo to give her resources, but also accompanied her to eat and drink with those sponsors. Once, you almost drank so much that you had gastric bleeding."

"Not only is she ungrateful, but once she saw you and Meng Tianbo canceled your engagement, she immediately turned her guns around and got together with a bitch like Mu Xiner. Now, she's even helping Mu Xiner deal with you. We really misjudged her in the first place."

After listening to Mu Ningxi's story, Wang Luyao started cursing on the phone.

"Luyao, maybe we didn't misjudge her at the beginning. It's just that she disguised herself too well at that time, so we didn't understand her. In the final analysis, it was us who didn't know her well, so we can't blame others."

Mu Ningxi expressed her inner thoughts.

It seems that Gong Zhiling's previous simplicity and kindness were all fake.

"Ning Xi, this is all my fault. If I hadn't asked Gong Zhiling to be your friend, you wouldn't have cared about her and you wouldn't have given so much for her."

On the phone, Wang Luyao recalled what happened in college and felt very regretful.

Mu Ningxi has a cold personality. When she first entered college, only Wang Luyao could talk to her.

Wang Luyao is a kind-hearted person. Seeing that Mu Ningxi ignored the other two people in the dormitory, she often took the initiative to treat the three of them out for dinner.

With Wang Luyao's efforts, Mu Ningxi finally accepted Gong Zhiling and Zhou Ping, and they became good friends.

"Luyao, Gong Zhiling's matter has nothing to do with you. Don't take all the responsibility on yourself." Mu Ningxi spoke to comfort Wang Luyao.

"But..." Wang Luyao wanted to continue speaking, but was interrupted by Mu Ningxi: "Luyao, I really don't blame you, don't blame yourself."

"Gong Zhiling is so despicable. I will never let her go so easily." Before hanging up the phone, Wang Luyao growled in frustration.

Knowing that Wang Luyao liked to talk nonsense, Mu Ningxi didn't take her words to heart at all. After saying "good night", he hung up the phone.

Putting down the phone, Mu Ningxi became more and more confused the more he thought about it.

Picking up her phone again, she opened Gong Zhiling's circle of friends. There were many more comments under that circle of friends. Mu Ningxi glanced at them and her face turned pale.

When they were in college, not many classmates could get along with Mu Ningxi because of her aloof personality. On the contrary, Gong Zhiling's well-behaved and gentle personality made her liked by many classmates.

In the comment section, those students were all speaking up for Gong Zhiling and basically blaming Mu Ningxi.

No wonder Luyao was so angry when she found out.

Mu Ningxi instantly understood the source of Wang Luyao's anger.

After thinking for a while, Mu Ningxi replied to Gong Zhiling's post: "Since we are not friends anymore, shouldn't you pay me for everything I have done for you over the years?"

After sending the message, Mu Ningxi turned off her phone, placed it on the coffee table, and lay back on the sofa.

Just as she was about to close her eyes again, she heard a slight noise coming from the bedroom.

Could it be that Huo Beichen's condition has worsened?

Thinking of this, Mu Ningxi quickly got up from the sofa and walked towards the bedroom.

Standing at the bedroom door, after hesitating for a moment, Mu Ningxi gently opened the door.

Standing at the door, with the faint moonlight, Mu Ningxi saw Huo Beichen lying on the bed moving around constantly.

Feeling that the situation was not good, Mu Ningxi strode to the bedside and saw that Huo Beichen's forehead was sweating and his mouth was opening and closing, as if he was saying something.

Mu Ningxi stretched out a hand and touched Huo Beichen's forehead, which was indeed very hot.

Mu Ningxi lowered her head and put her ear close to Huo Beichen's mouth, wanting to hear clearly what he was saying.

After listening for a few seconds and unable to make out a complete sentence, Mu Ningxi was sure that Huo Beichen had not woken up and was talking in his sleep.

Mu Ningxi stood up and planned to go back to the living room to get medicine and fever-reducing patches.

As soon as she turned around, one of her hands was grabbed from behind.

Looking back, Huo Beichen had his eyes closed tightly, with no sign of waking up, but he held Mu Ningxi's hand with great strength.

After waiting for a minute, Mu Ningxi saw that Huo Beichen had no intention of letting her go, so she had to use her other free hand to pry Huo Beichen's fingers.

Unfortunately, Huo Beichen's hands were too strong and Mu Ningxi was completely unable to pry his fingers apart.

Seeing the sweat constantly coming out of Huo Beichen's forehead, Mu Ningxi had to increase her strength.

"Is it you?" Suddenly, the person who had his eyes closed just now suddenly opened his eyes. He was stunned when he saw Mu Ningxi. After a few seconds, he asked in a hoarse voice.

Their eyes met, and Mu Ningxi said nothing.

Nonsense, it's my house now, who else could it be if not me?

In her heart, Mu Ningxi complained secretly.

Huo Beichen looked around, as if he had just remembered where he was.

Then he saw his clenched hands and immediately let go.

After being freed, Mu Ningxi shook her hand, which was a little painful from being held by Huo Beichen, and suggested: "Mr. Huo, you have a fever again. I will take you to the hospital."

"No need, just take a rest and it will be fine, there's no need to make such trouble." Huo Beichen refused bluntly.

Knowing that Huo Beichen had a stubborn temper, Mu Ningxi did not continue to persuade him.

"I want to drink some water." Without waiting for Mu Ningxi to say the next sentence, Huo Beichen continued to speak and made a request.
