The Little Childhood Friend in a Female-Dominated World (ChatGPT Translated)

5. Doubt

Just a moment ago, Lu Xiaobawang, who refused to change her name or surname, suddenly didn't want to admit her own name. This caused everyone to focus their attention on her and Xu Mu.

Li Shi glanced at his son, who had bright eyes and an excited expression, and then looked at Lu Feng's figure, his delicate eyebrows slightly furrowing.

He knew Li Shi's temperament very well. He had lived in Lingnan for so many years and had never seen him make many close friends. How come he had just arrived in the capital not long ago and already knew Lu Feng, feeling familiar with her?

Ji Ruan Yuguan secretly glanced at Li Shi and saw him furrowing his brows in contemplation, causing his heart to skip a beat. Did Lu Feng bully his son?

She looked at Xu Mu running towards Lu Feng and had a feeling that this child's figure looked somewhat familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.

"Lu Feng." Xu Mu ran three steps and stood in front of Lu Feng, looking at her with his fair and tender little face, appearing like a foolish admirer. Lu Feng could feel the burning and straightforward gaze even through the fabric covering her face.

Persistent!

Lu Feng glared at him through her clothes. He had already tricked her with a bag of preserved fruits, so what was he up to now?

Li Shi finally couldn't help but speak up and walked towards Xu Mu, softly calling out, "Preserved fruits."

Xu Mu suddenly realized that he had neglected his father and took the initiative to explain to him, "This is the sister who gave me preserved fruits yesterday."

Lu Feng, under the gaze of everyone, felt foolish and annoyed, and let her clothes fall down. Although she didn't know the specifics, she did give Xu Mu the preserved fruits, so she made a muffled sound in agreement with Xu Mu's words.

Yesterday, his son fell and Lu Feng gave him a bag of preserved fruits, and today, the two of them helped him out of a predicament. If he didn't express his gratitude, it wouldn't be right.

Li Shi said, "I don't have any decent gifts to offer, so please choose some pastries to take back."

Ji Ruan would never accept something for nothing, so naturally, she was unwilling. The two of them were talking inside the house, and Lu Feng took the opportunity to slip out and leaned against the door, waiting for Ji Ruan to come out.

She twirled the tassel on her waistband with her index finger, and when Xu Mu poked his head out of the door to find her, she pursed her lips and let go, crossing her arms and glancing at him.

Xu Mu saw that she didn't leave, so he immediately raised his eyes and came out of the shop, leaning in next to her.

Lu Feng turned her face to enter the house when she saw him approaching, but he stopped her steps with his outstretched hand.

Xu Mu's hand was still on her arm, and he looked at her with a smile.

Xu Mu reached out a hand to her, his small hand clenched into a fist, and opened it towards her. In the fair and tender palm lay several enticing sweet preserves.

These sweet preserves were more effective than calling Lu Feng, immediately causing Lu Xiaobawang, who originally wanted to get rid of Xu Mu and walk away, to stay.

Lu Feng's eyes glanced at the sweet preserves in Xu Mu's palm, then looked at his face and asked, "What does this mean?" "I'm offering you sweet preserves. You treated me to some yesterday," Xu Mu replied, feeling tired as he held his arm out to her.

Lu Feng thought to herself that she didn't want to offer him sweet preserves yesterday, but rather wanted to shut his crying mouth. Lu Feng lightly clicked her tongue and resolutely refused, "No."
