Chapter 456: Chapter 456

Mu Wanxin walked in and saw An Ran messing with her long hair frenetically, and she couldn’t help but be taken aback, "Ran, did your hair do something to you?"

An Ran paused her actions, peeking through the disheveled hair covering her forehead at Mu Wanxin standing by the door. She felt a pang of self-pity; her craziness had been witnessed by her big sister.

Awkwardly, she withdrew her hands and pushed her hair back, "Hehe, sis, I’m just trying to design a new hairstyle."

"A beggar’s hairdo?" Mu Wanxin’s eyes flashed with amusement as she walked over to pick up the marriage certificate lying on the pillow.

"Missing my little brother so much you’re going crazy?"

An Ran: "..." Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on novelꜰire.net

Can we still have fun? Is it really okay to expose someone’s weakness like that?

An Ran grabbed the marriage certificate in annoyance, "Who’s thinking about him? He hasn’t even called once, I wouldn’t miss him."

Mu Wanxin just smiled at her, not bothering to expose her lies.

An Ran had been staying at the old house for the past few days, and the two had gotten along exceptionally well, talking about everything and anything. Despite what others might think, she was extremely pleased with her sister-in-law. To put it bluntly, even if her little brother and An Ran didn’t end up together, they would still remain good friends.

"Alright, if you don’t miss him, let’s go out for a walk. We’ll go to the Shen Family’s place later."

"No, you’ll just flaunt your affection with brother-in-law, why bring me the third wheel? Besides, I’m afraid I’ll get sick of it." An Ran stood up to fix her hair.

"Pfft, and you say you don’t miss my little brother," Mu Wanxin teased, "Alright, it’s not to see Wenxuan. Ya just called, she’s bored and wants to go to the temple fair."

Upon hearing about the temple fair, An Ran perked up. Finally, something to do; she was getting bored out of her mind thinking about Mu Xingfeng every day at home.

"You should have said so earlier, sis. Wait, I’ll go change clothes."

In no time, the two of them went downstairs, greeted Old Mr. Mu and Grandma Mu, and headed out.

Watching their backs, Grandma Mu smiled slightly, "Ran is a good kid, she’s completely devoted to our Xingfeng. Don’t be fooled by how reserved they are together; Xingfeng’s absence on missions shows how much her heart is set on him."

Old Mr. Mu nodded in agreement, "That’s why I say, I, the old man, had foresight. The two of them, one’s like a wooden log and the other’s so young. If they were to figure things out on their own, who knows how long it would take. By getting the marriage certificate first, now there’s no running away."

"You’re something else," Grandma Mu said, laughing and scolding Old Mr. Mu for his smug expression.

The Shen Family wasn’t far from the Mu Family, just a half-hour drive.

According to Mu Wanxin, the Mu Family, Shen Family, and Lin Family used to live in the same large compound, with Shen and Mu Families being direct neighbors.

Mu Wanxin was a wild child, unable to get along with other girls, preferring to mingle with boys. But she was often at a disadvantage, frequently getting the short end of the stick, so Shen Wenxuan always protected her.

As a result of this constant protection, it became a habit, and eventually, they couldn’t be without each other.

Listening to Mu Wanxin, An Ran was filled with envy, "So, big sister has good taste. When other girls were playing with dolls, you were already choosing your childhood sweetheart."

"You could say that," Mu Wanxin replied with a sly smile, "So, when you meet a good man who truly loves you and who you also like, you can’t be shy."

Though she seemed to be talking about herself, Mu Wanxin gave An Ran a meaningful look.
