The time of the city

Chapter 19 You must go abroad with me

After the party, Mo Yu returned home very late. The house was dark and she thought everyone was asleep, so she walked upstairs very carefully.

"Why are you back so late?" The sudden voice scared Mo Yu. After calming down, Mo Yu knew it was Ni Jiamu.

He sat on the sofa in the living room. The room was dark and only a rough outline could be seen. If you didn't know, you would think he was a ghost. "Brother, why don't you turn on the light?"

"I was the one who asked the question first." Ni Jiamu's voice was very cold and chilly, completely different from his usual tone. Although it was June, Mo Yu felt cold.

"I attended a graduation party and got stuck in traffic, so I came back late. It's getting late, so I'll go to bed first. Good night, brother." Mo Yu said and prepared to go upstairs. She wanted to quickly escape from Ni Jiamu, this big ice block.

"Did I let you go?" Ni Jiamu picked up something from the table and played with it. When Mo Yu heard this, her steps froze and she slowly turned her head.

Moonlight shone in through the window, and Mo Yu could see clearly that he was holding a ceramic cup. His bony fingers kept turning the ceramic cup. Mo Yu couldn't see his expression, but she knew it must be very bad.

"Brother, do you have something to tell me? I'm very tired and I want to sleep. Let's talk about it tomorrow. If we do this, our parents will be woken up by us." After Mo Yu finished speaking, she glanced at Ni Jiamu secretly, even though she couldn't see clearly.

"Mom and Dad aren't home." He put down his ceramic cup, crossed his legs, and leaned crookedly on the sofa. "Mo Yu, if I wanted to take you abroad, would you be willing?"

So it was about this matter. Mo Yu understood what she meant. She said that Ni Jiamu had been much colder towards her in the past few days. It turned out that it was because she said at the dinner table that she didn't want to go abroad, which made Ni Jiamu think too much.

Ni Jiamu has always been very proud and arrogant. He wishes that she could be around him every day, constantly praising his brother for being so great and saying that his brother is invincible in the universe. When Mo Yu thought of this, she was not so scared anymore.

"Brother, I don't want to bother you. You'll still have to take care of me when we go abroad. I'm fine staying in City A," Mo Yu said softly. She was actually afraid of annoying Ni Jiamu if she wasn't careful. In her eyes, Ni Jiamu was like a girl having her period, his mood fluctuating.

"So, you don't want to?" He raised his chin with dignity. "But what if I ask you to go abroad with me?" Ni Jiamu emphasized the word "going abroad", and it sounded more and more sarcastic.

"I think I can make decisions for myself, brother can't force me." Mo Yu raised her head and refused to admit defeat.

"Make decisions for yourself, including rekindling your old relationship with Gu Bai." It was clearly summer, but it felt like winter.

"I didn't, brother, don't make wild guesses." Mo Yu thought Ni Jiamu was just making wild guesses and wanted to lie to cover it up. But then she heard Ni Jiamu's laughter, but it didn't sound happy at all, but rather sarcastic.

Ni Jiamu walked up to Mo Yu, took out his cell phone and searched for it. "Mo Yu, you are such a bad girl. This is the second time you have lied to me." Ni Jiamu said as he held the phone in front of Mo Yu. On the phone was a screenshot, and the content of the screenshot was exactly the circle of friends that Lin Xiao had posted about Mo Yu and Gu Bai.

Mo Yu was dumbfounded. She had no idea that Lin Xiao had filmed her and Gu Bai and even posted it on WeChat Moments. In her heart, Mo Yu cursed Lin Xiao for being such a bad teammate.

Seeing that the girl in front of him was silent, Ni Jiamu took back his phone and said, "I will go to help you with the procedures for going abroad tomorrow. You should go abroad with me as soon as possible." Ni Jiamu began to feel uneasy since he saw those photos. He couldn't explain what he felt. He just thought that he was afraid that his sister would be bullied by others and he stood up for her.

"I'm not going. If you want to go, you can go by yourself. I want to go to University A." After hearing Mo Yu's words, his eyes dimmed and his brows frowned slightly. Mo Yu almost immediately caught the change in his expression, but so what? She would fight him to the end.

"I tell you, Mo Yu, you have no choice. You have to go whether you want to or not. You want to be with Gu Bai, right? Then don't blame me for being rude." After saying that, Ni Jiamu went upstairs.

The next day, Mo Yu called Lin Xiao early in the morning. Lin Xiao was sleeping soundly and had no idea that she had done something big.

"Lin Xiao, why didn't you post Gu Bai and I on your Moments without my consent?" Lin Xiao, who had been unable to open her eyes, almost woke up immediately after hearing Mo Yu's voice. She had never seen Mo Yu so angry before, and she had never called her by her full name when she was angry before.

"Xiao Yu, you called me so early in the morning just for this. I was so happy to see you two reconcile that I couldn't help but post on WeChat Moments. You know I post about even the smallest things."

"When did you get my brother's WeChat?" Mo Yu's anger subsided a lot after hearing Lin Xiao's words, but there were still some details she wanted to clarify. She thought it was because Lin Xiao added Ni Jiamu's WeChat, so Ni Jiamu saw it when she was browsing the Moments.

"I don't have your brother's WeChat. I'd like to add him, but seeing how he looks, I don't dare."

"Then how did my brother see the Moments you posted? Do you have mutual friends? But that's impossible. There's an eight-year age difference between you two."

"Xiaoyu, I'm sorry for you this time. I will definitely find the informer and remove her from my friend list. I'll hang up first. Xiaoyu, I'm too sleepy. I'll look for her when I wake up and send you a message when I find her." Lin Xiao hung up the phone immediately after saying that.

Mo Yu was not in the mood to continue sleeping, so she simply went downstairs. There was no one downstairs. Mo Yu subconsciously looked at the sofa and confirmed that Ni Jiamu was not at home, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Bai sent a message to Mo Yu saying that he had just gotten off work, and Mo Yu quickly told him to go and rest.

At noon, Lin Xiao finally called. "Xiaoyu, I sent a group message to all my friends asking if they knew Ni Jiamu. A guy named Qiao Mu said he knew him. I asked him out. We'll meet in an hour at the coffee shop we often go to. Xiaoyu, come quickly and watch me deal with this guy."

Mo Yu was about to say something when Lin Xiao hung up the phone again. She always did what she wanted.

When Mo Yu arrived at the coffee shop, Lin Xiao was already sitting there, taking selfies with her phone. "Xiao Xiao, why did you ask him out? Since he knows my brother, why not just block him from your Moments?"

"Xiao Yu, we have to know why he took a screenshot of my Moments and showed it to your brother, right? Could it be that your secret admirer saw that you and Gu Bai had reconciled, and was so angry that he told your brother to break you two up?" Lin Xiao started to let her imagination run wild again.

After waiting for a while, Qiao Mu sent a message saying that he had arrived and asked Lin Xiao where she was sitting. Lin Xiao saw the man at the door and waved to him. The man took a look and came over.

The man was handsome, with a sharp, clean outline, a pair of gentle, affectionate eyes, and a short, buzzed haircut that gave him a touch of coolness. He was wearing a tracksuit, and the sweat on his forehead hadn't dried yet. Mo Yu guessed he must have just finished working out.

"He's so handsome, I can't bear to teach him a lesson." Lin Xiao whispered into Mo Yu's ear, making Mo Yu feel itchy all over.

"I just finished playing basketball. Why did you call me over in such a hurry? Where's your brother? I asked him to come over to play basketball, but he didn't reply to my message." Qiao Mu was obviously talking to Mo Yu.

"Do you know my brother? What's your relationship with him?" Mo Yu asked, and then felt strange again. Asking two grown men what the relationship was always makes people think a lot.

"I'm your brother's friend. I remember I hit you with a basketball. Have you forgotten? Little brat." Qiao Mu deliberately dragged out the ending tone when he said little brat, and with the smirk on his face, he looked like a dissolute young master.

"Little brat, how old do you think you are?" Lin Xiao said sarcastically.

"I'm the same age as his brother. Do you think you're little brats? Did you come to me because I sent a screenshot of my Moments to Ni Jiamu?" Qiao Mu glared at Lin Xiao and then looked at Mo Yu. "I think your brother cares about you a lot. He's abroad. I've asked him to come back several times, but he remained indifferent. Damn, he came back to accompany you for such a long time when you were about to take the college entrance examination. I also heard him mention you when we were playing together. One time, a friend of ours saw your photo in his album and thought it was his girlfriend. Later he said it was his sister, so I know what you look like." Qiao Mu spoke a lot in one breath, and was so thirsty that he picked up the lemonade on the table and drank it in one gulp.

"That's mine. Can't you buy it yourself if you want to drink it? Then why do you have my WeChat? Are you secretly caring about me?" Lin Xiao guessed this and couldn't stop smiling.

"Have you ever had a drink? You invited me here, so you had to give me a glass of water. It was you who asked for my WeChat. At the stadium, you came over to give me water and asked for my WeChat. I didn't want to give it to you. There were too many people here. I didn't want you to lose face. Could you please stop being so narcissistic?"

After hearing what Qiao Mu said, Lin Xiao pouted. She asked for WeChat when she saw a handsome guy. She couldn't remember when she asked for his WeChat. She was considered a beauty, but he was reluctant to give her WeChat. The more Lin Xiao thought about it, the angrier she became, and the expression on her face became more colorful.

"Humph, you're the one who thinks you're so handsome. Xiaoyu's brother is much more handsome than you."

"Can you ask for my WeChat if I'm not handsome? No matter how handsome Mo Yu's brother is, he won't look down on you. And your loud voice won't make Ni Jiamu deaf?" Qiao Mu retorted unconvincedly. He was like a little child, lacking the maturity that belonged to his age.

Mo Yu didn't sit for long before heading home. Lin Xiao and Fang Mu remained in the coffee shop, battling it out. The sunlight shone on her face, revealing a melancholic softness, like a morning breeze laden with moisture.
