Chapter 144

When Xiao Junyan heard Chu Muyue's surprised and curious tone, he pursed his lips and asked, "You like it?"

She liked his smile?

Chu Muyue nodded her head gently. She looked at Xiao Junyan's smile for a moment before it disappeared. She seemed to want more. "I like it!"

Xiao Junyan frowned slightly. When he heard Chu Muyue's words, it seemed like she liked it, but there was a turning point.

"And then?" Xiao Junyan asked. His tone was filled with worry and anxiety.

Chu Muyue revealed a bright smile and said, "You're already so handsome. If you smile again, you'll definitely bring disaster to the country and the people. It's better if you smile less!"

Xiao Junyan, who was originally a little depressed and worried, relaxed when he heard Chu Muyue's words. At least she didn't hate him.

Naturally, Xiao Junyan also quickly spoke up to comfort Chu Muyue. "Don't worry, I'll only smile at you!"

Chu Muyue's clear and dark eyes flashed with a bright light. The corners of her mouth also curled up slightly. It was obvious that she was in a good mood.

"Is that so? Then I'd like to see if you'll keep the promise between us! "Chu Muyue said, but she didn't mean it.

Xiao Junyan's face was filled with determination. He spat out a few words. "I'll keep it, trust me!"

Xiao Junyan knew his own smile very well. He might not even smile once or twice a year. However, as long as Chu Muyue liked it and wanted to see it, he would show it more often in front of her.

"Cough cough cough!" Chu Muyue only felt a little embarrassed. She quickly coughed three times and said to Xiao Junyan, "That, I'd better remove the silver needles from your head first. Is your headache better?"

"Mm!" Xiao Junyan nodded. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he looked at Chu Muyue.

Chu Muyue glanced at Xiao Junyan and lowered her head again. She muttered in her heart that her idol's smile was too lethal.

Xiao Junyan asked Chu Muyue to remove the silver needles from his head. His head also felt relaxed, and he didn't feel as uncomfortable as before.

"Thank you!" Xiao Junyan pressed his head and said gratefully to Chu Muyue.

Chu Muyue waved her hand. "No need. You're my Senior Brother. This is what I should do!"

Xiao Junyan lowered his eyes, nodded, and remained silent.

He wanted to ask her if she could not be his senior brother, but he was afraid that he would scare her away like he did just now.

In the end, he could only suppress the hope in his heart. He watched as Chu Muyue wrapped up his silver needles and sent them back to his room.

He watched as Chu Muyue put away the needle bag and came out of the room. He stood up and asked, "Do you want to train again?"

"There's no need for that. Your head has just recovered. You should rest for a while. I can go practice on my own!" Chu Muyue hurriedly shook her head.

She didn't want anything to happen to Xiao Junyan. Seeing him in so much pain, she felt a little sad and distressed.

Chu Muyue's words were full of concern for him. Xiao Junyan's lips curled up again. "It's okay. I'm willing to help you!"

"Forget it!" Chu Muyue was unwilling. She waved her hand and said to Xiao Junyan, "I'd better read. I still have some books to read!"

"Okay, I'll accompany … accompany you. Is that okay?" Xiao Junyan wanted to say that he would accompany her, but he was afraid that he would disturb her.
