Chapter 650: Having Dinner with Song Bai

The last time Mu Xiaoyu bumped into Song Bai at the hospital, she made polite remarks like "let's have dinner together sometime," but she never really intended to go out for a meal alone with him.

Because of Song Bai and the others, she and Li Chenxu had a lot of conflicts in the past, so even if there is really nothing between her and Song Bai now, she will not take the initiative to meet with Song Bai again.

So before going to the hospital to see Song Yin, Mu Xiaoyu specifically asked Song Yin and learned that Song Bai wasn't there before going to the hospital. Unexpectedly, she had just arrived at Song Yin's ward, and less than a minute later, Song Bai also arrived.

"Xiaoyu?"

At that moment, Mu Xiaoyu and Song Yin were chatting and laughing, and neither of them noticed Song Bai's arrival. Gu Yeqi, who was the first to notice Song Bai's arrival, didn't have time to warn the two of them.

Mu Xiaoyu and Song Yin exchanged a glance, both looking somewhat embarrassed.

Song Yin looked at Song Bai: "Brother, didn't you say you weren't coming? Why did you suddenly come?"

Song Yin had asked Song Bai beforehand, and he said he wouldn't be coming over until the evening, which is why she felt comfortable letting Mu Xiaoyu come now. Song Yin had previously considered matchmaking Mu Xiaoyu and Song Bai, after all, it's good to have good things in the family; both Mu Xiaoyu and Song Bai are extremely outstanding individuals.

Unfortunately, the emotional entanglement between Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu was too deep, and no one could enter their world.

Having exhausted all other options, Song Yin had no choice but to give up. Moreover, she was still trying to find ways to prevent the two from meeting.

As Song Bai's sister, she knew very well that although Song Bai didn't say it, he had never been able to let go of Mu Xiaoyu. Otherwise, he wouldn't have remained single for so many years.

Song Bai appeared calm on the surface, and upon hearing this, he smiled gently and said, "Something came up at the company, so I might not be able to come over tonight and came early."

"If you don't have time, that's fine. There's no need to come here every day. Isn't there Gu Yeqi?"

Song Yin muttered to herself, "Song Bai dotes on his younger sister. After learning about her pregnancy and subsequent injury, he immediately went through the procedures to return to China to work. And since returning, he's basically been going to the hospital every day. If it weren't for Gu Yeqi staying here every day, he probably would have been living in the hospital."

Upon hearing this, Song Bai simply smiled and remained silent. His gaze shifted from Song Yin to Mu Xiaoyu beside her, and his eyes softened further: "I thought we wouldn't have another chance to meet again for a while, but I didn't expect us to run into each other so soon."

Song Bai acted with composure and grace, so even though Mu Xiaoyu wanted to avoid suspicion, she couldn't be too obvious at the moment. Hearing this, she gave Song Bai a slight smile and said, "Yes, I didn't expect to run into you so soon..."

"It's been a long time. How about we have lunch together? If you mind, you can invite Mr. Li to join us."

"It's okay, we'll eat. He has a business dinner today."

Mu Xiaoyu wasn't actually particularly keen on having dinner with Song Bai, not because she disliked him, but simply because she wanted to avoid any appearance of impropriety. However, he had been so generous and considerate towards her, it wouldn't be right for her to refuse.

As for not letting Li Chenxu come along, that's for sure.

With Li Chenxu's fiery temper, if he were to see Song Bai and they were still eating at the same table, who knows what kind of conflict might arise.

Song Yin's condition has stabilized, but Gu Yeqi was still worried and stayed at the hospital a little longer. Mu Xiaoyu chatted with Song Yin for a while longer, and when it was almost time, she left with Song Bai.

"I heard you've entered the entertainment industry now. How's it going? Are you settling in well?"

The two walked side by side. The hospital was crowded, and people would occasionally squeeze next to Mu Xiaoyu, but every time they were about to bump into her, Song Bai would block them, being very gentlemanly.

Watching Song Bai's thoughtful actions, Mu Xiaoyu felt a complex mix of emotions. To be fair, both Bai Ye and Song Bai were extremely outstanding men. With their status, position, and physical attributes, they could find virtually any kind of excellent woman.

But why did I end up entangled with her?

Thinking about this, Mu Xiaoyu felt somewhat helpless.

As a mature adult, Mu Xiaoyu was well aware of her strengths. Compared to the average person, she was indeed quite good, but not to the point of being universally loved.

More importantly, her temper is far from good.

Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but sigh in her heart. In any case, regardless of whether Song Bai's feelings had changed or not, after this incident, whether they met again or not, they should not have any further contact.

The two did not go far, but ate at a Sichuan restaurant near the hospital.

Since becoming pregnant, Mu Xiaoyu's tastes have changed somewhat. She used to avoid eating anything too spicy or sour, but now, these two flavors are her favorites. After consulting with Mu Xiaoyu, Song Bai and Mu Xiaoyu decided to eat at this Sichuan restaurant.

"Let's order first, otherwise the food will take longer to arrive if there are more people later."

Mu Xiaoyu responded with a soft "hmm" and took the menu to order.

She ordered a few of her favorite dishes, and just as she finished ordering, Li Chenxu called.

Mu Xiaoyu glanced at Song Bai subconsciously, then pointed to the phone and said, "I'll go answer this call first."

After saying that, she got up and went to a quiet place before answering Li Chenxu's call.

"Hey……"

"have you eaten?"

There seemed to be a lot of people on Li Chenxu's side, and it sounded even noisier than usual. Mu Xiaoyu had to turn the volume up to the maximum to barely hear what Li Chenxu was saying.

"We just ordered the food, have you already eaten?"

"I'm eating now. I just drank some alcohol, and I feel a bit unwell."

Mu Xiaoyu wondered if it was just her imagination, but Li Chenxu's tone sounded like he was very aggrieved.

They looked so pitiful, like they were being coquettish.

She couldn't help but chuckle softly, and said to him in a gentle voice, "If you're feeling unwell, drink less. If someone tries to force you to drink, just say that I'm telling you to stop."

"You're telling me what to do?"

Li Chenxu repeated Mu Xiaoyu's words, his voice sounding even lower and hoarser than usual, perhaps because he had been drinking. His voice was already pleasant to hear, and now that he was deliberately lowering his voice to speak to Mu Xiaoyu, it sounded like lovers whispering sweet nothings to each other.

Mu Xiaoyu felt her face burning, and for some reason, she became a little nervous as she spoke: "Yeah, a lot of people avoid drinking like this when socializing. If you don't tell me, you'll definitely get drunk, and I won't care about you when you get back."
