She snuck a glance over at Xue Rui. He was playing with the dog, but then suddenly looked up at her.
'Yes, Xue Rui is special. Other boys are usually a little intimidated by me, but Xue Rui never was, not from the very beginning.'
'And she felt he was more mature than other boys. Maybe he wasn't interested in beautiful women?'
After exchanging a glance with Xue Rui, she turned to Lin Ruoxi with a faint smile. "I'm Xue Rui's girlfriend. We made it official over the summer."
She figured Lin Ruoxi already knew, but she brought it up anyway. She just wanted to test her suspicions.
A dazed look passed through Lin Ruoxi's eyes. She hesitated, "I…"
Xue Rui froze on the spot. 'What is she going to say?'
'Don't tell me she's going to say, "Me too"!'
His heart leaped into his throat.
"I know," Lin Ruoxi said, slowly lowering her head, not daring to meet Gu Muxue's gaze.
'She wasn't lying, but she was hiding a secret from Gu Muxue—she was Xue Rui's girlfriend, too.'
